I liked the visuals when Kanda was talking about Mashiro and himself running up the stairs, the metaphors that this show employs on rare occasions have the surreal quality that always pulls me toward the screen

Every episode my heart's getting crushed because it's so predictable who's gonna win and I'll really feel sorry for her... ;_;

Well, the ending where Sorata thought again about Aoyama especially that so-thought confession was hilarious.

wow really? Aoyoma is gonna fake a confession like that and play with kanda's feelings? that's not cool at all. I'd hoped they would have a huge confession scene but nope. She ttly lost my vote with that. SHINNA ALL THE WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Well, Sorata earned some respect points for his attitude this time (not for his intelligence though), he went to help one girl without forgetting to leave a message for the other, and then went back as soon as possible.

Also, it seem like the messages are finally making progress in getting into his very thick skull.

Keep up the good work girls!, the wall of obliviousness is about to crumble.

Cute, but corny at the same time. Can't have it one way.

Kanda is a retard, he rides his bike all the way to Nanami and hands his cellphone to her to call the taxi. Kanda did I mention that you're a retard? Retard.
I know, right?, but it has been exposed before how stupid he can be.

I'm honestly not surprised he couldn't think about getting the cab himself despite having money for it.

Nanami: I'm a broke-ass girl that called a guy riding his bike to come to my aid so he can hand me his money so I can ride the taxi.

Thanks for explaining the difference between a bike and a taxi. Very informative.
LOL, thanks for making my day. XD

Hmmm as each episode passes, I like Nanami more and Mashiro less.

Mashiro hasn't really evolved at all since the start of the series and is still just as useless at common sense things as she was at the beginning. She still can't fully dress herself for pete's sake.

Nanami is trying really hard to succeed and it seems that Sorata will go out of his way to help her, even if it means pushing Mashiro to the side.

I'm still 90% sure he will pick Mashiro even though she has the common sense of a 4 year old and it's a bit annoying and robs some of the realism from this. (I know people will laugh at the word realism in anime but still, it feels dumb that he would consider picking Mashiro over Nanami now unless some massive change happens in the next few episodes.)

Anyway, happy to see Misaki her usual self. Looking forward to the next episode.

Damn, some Nanami fans are hilariously bitter. Anyways, decent episode. I really liked the ritaxdragon scenes, as they were as funny as ever, though somewhat depressing as well. I also thought the Mashiro and Sorata scene at the end was amazing! I like how this episode, once again, made it clear that Sorata only has feelings for Mashiro. I didn't like the scene after the credits all that much, as it somewhat came off as a means to keep this ridiculously one-sided "triangle" open for a bit more. All I'm hoping is that the show actually gives time to properly develop the relationship between Sorata and Mashiro. They are obviously the end couple, so it would be nice to see a few episodes that actually focus on that, instead of on Nanami's fifteenth "fake" confession.

As for Aoyama, she can be a decent character when she's focusing on her voice acting, but there are two aspects of her character that make her presence in the story rather annoying. First of all, she is clearly only in the anime to stall the romantic development between Sorata and Mashiro, as it's obvious that Sorata has never had even slightly romantic feelings towards Nanami, so it's not really much of a "triangle." Secondly, every development within her storyline is insanely cliche. She could actually be a good character if it weren't for the fact that she's written so poorly. I mean, how many times can you have a fake confession complete with an absurd amount of idiotic blushing? What happened to her decision to not confess until after she failed or passed her audition? I will try to keep an open mind about her character in the future, but for me to do so, I would like to see her make some sort of decision that isn't centered on her "love" for Sorata.

Floross said:
Kanda X Nanami is still very much viable.

It's actually more viable than Mashiro x Kanda , since Nanami stands to lose more , but in Mashiro's case Kanda could remain as that special person that showed her how to live and love.

You never know...

I never understand why Nanami fans always say things like that. Nanami is not a more viable option since Sorata has no feelings for her. It doesn't matter that she's the perfect "waifu", as logic rarely dictates who someone falls in love with.

Also, how exactly does Nanami stand to lose more? She should have known since the episode where she tells Sorata to go after Mashiro that they have a special relationship. If she had done so, she wouldn't have to suffer through an inevitable rejection. She can always remain friends with Sorata after he breaks her heart, so I see no reason why she would lose anything.

And once more an episode that resolves nothing and leaves a question mark for what girl will win.

I'm still suspecting Nanami will, as on a level he and Mashiro will always have some problems. He can't see himself on equal grounds with her, and can't trust her to even dress, and causes stress for him. No matter how cute a couple, if it has stress and they don't see each other as equals it won't work.

Honestly, Nanami has had no chance ever since Sorata began to have feelings for Mashiro.

This should be on the front page of CNN under breaking news Sorata finally realised that Aoyama has feelings for him even tho it was clear as day.
And it was nice to see him working so hard for both Aoyama and Shiina he surly needed a lot of stamina to keep up with both girls.
I thought the Japanese rail system was one of the most reliable rail systems in the world so even there the trains get delayed sometimes.

Ryuu was being a jerk Rika came all the way to Japan for him and he would not even see her the poor girls.
Same could be said for Misaki, Jin didn't even come to see her.

Nahahaha! very lovely episode imo.
Rita x Ryou is just the best!
I don't know which couple to ship anymore xD
Shinna x Sorata or
Aoyama x Sorata
The Art of Shipping is no mere game. It can be small skirmishes to huge nation size wars.
Of course some will claim their ship is the BATTLESHIP but they all do. This is why battles occur because of factions fighting each other to justify their favourite ship.
And thus SHIP to SHIP combat occurs almost anytime even now.
Beware, Threading into the Shipping battlefield will be bloody.... What are you waiting for?

WTH Aoyama, Better be fast before Shiina gets in your way. :D Get your body ready. Aoyama should've directly confessed to Sorata on that bike scene or whatsoever. I am still happy nevertheless, 'cause it felt like an indirect confession from Nanami and Sorata pretty much felt her voice acting lines/indirect confession. WEE~ We need at least a kiss from Sorata x Nanami. Obviously, Shiina's gonna get him but whatever, at least put up a scene with Nanami and Sorata kissing 'cause she effing deserves one.

I feel bad for Rita though. Akasaka should've shown even a single way of appreciation when they were talking. Rita did really took an effort just to see him in person again and him ignoring her afterwards felt like "the action wasn't right" although he did felt something when he read rita's letter. That was mainly the thing that saved their scene.

Anyways, Akasaka Ryuunosuke = Male Tsundere

Pretty good over dramatic episode, I guess....

For the Taxi / Bike argument,

The most logical thing to do was just hire a taxi from near the school go to the station, pickup Nanami then drop her near the audition hall went back to school.... But where's FUN in that....

I'm still of the opinion that Aoyama has a chance if she was more proactive, but her window is closing right before us.

Still can't believe Jin's basically rejecting Misaki. Whatever his feelings, it's pretty cruel.

It's very nice of that guy who was rejected by Aoyama to help out so much. Kudos to him.

Great episode as always.

Love is in the air.

Too bad:

That Sorata was too stupid to notice how Aoyama loves him.

That Shiina is feeling love for Sorata.

That Jin didn't show up for Misaki.

That Rita have to leave at once and long haired guy didn't even give a shit.

I'm not underestimating it. It's OP!!


If you're in love and have money to burn (she may not be at Mashiro's talent level but shes quite the talented respected makes money and has a rich family to back up her own wealth 'pro' why not take the trip even if its a side trip from your own tour ? Thats not OP its what someone in that position would probably do~

Interesting episode. I really liked it. Looks like for once now Sorata is ahead if Mashiro in something, but at the same time something big might happen with Nanami. Also looks like there is potential for the love of Ryunoske and Rita. Lastly , looks like things between Misaki and Jin will come to an end soon.
It's definitely the climax. Lots to look forward to :)

Yeah that would be good. They could at least make it so it's not an easy win for Mashiro.

That would be terrible.

I'm pretty sure everybody, including me, would want Sorata's head on a stake if he decided to kiss Nanami and lead her on, but then left her for Shiina.

Isn't that kind of what happened in School Days? And we all love the characters in School Days..

My point is to at least show how far her relationship with Sorata had gone and with the last episode showing how Sorata reacted on that bike scene or whatsoever makes Aoyama so deserving of at least a kiss from him. It doesn't really matter if she looks poor or rather a loser as long as she receives something special from him. She actually understands her position so it is very possible for her to get over it in a few weeks.

Adding up this to my reply:
Ragna92 said:

It will be more terrible if she was just ignored which may probably happen (since i am not a reader of the LN) or will just be rejected without getting something very special from him. I know she fairly deserves something out of what she was doing in this series. We'll that's just my opinion.

Anime Adaptations don't actually cover all of the material in their respective sources. Some actually tends to at least modify a little out of the source material. I hope Sakurasou does it though.
