| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Oh damn, I've been waiting for this~ Kud is adorable :3 Kyousuke and his freaking guitar LOL Glorious start so far. I loved seeing Kurugaya in this. I couldn't stand those girls mocking her though. The way that Kurugaya knocked down that door was glorious. Beautiful: http://i.imgur.com/RjuOe3Q.png I also kinda liked the ED song. |
 |
| Here goes Slow Curve ruining the mood again. Oh, wait, that sound director is still here? Oh. |
| @inuvivo on twitter! |
| nooooo damn at least I know the animation improved xD Is door-kun still alright? |
| Look like the show will be forever cursed with straight-line shadow R.I.P door-kun,you have a noble death. |
| Oh, and by the way door-kun is already dead in this episode. RIP. |

| so Door-kun is out. What you think will happen next episode? thought door-kun will still survive till Ep2-3 lol |
| Still better than bench-kun's death. At least door-kun had his time to shine in season 1. |
| What's with you people and Kengo's badass while we have a bucket full of Kurugaya's !? http://i.imgur.com/4WUK0es.gif |
| ^I laughed so hard at the 2 girls' reactions omg |
| am i the only one who loved the ED song after hearing it live? :I |
| can someone upload the OP vid (and ED) from the raw to youtube, no good quality ones atm |
| What a nice start! Dammit Kurugaya, why are you so badass? D: btw ITS HAPPENING! And the Op is beautiful <3 |

| Magnificient episode ~ owo I really love dat OP and ED, and damn Yui you badass =w= ~ |
| I feel so trolled, THOSE HANDS WEREN"T RIKI AND RINS FROM THE PV |
egnaro315 said: I feel so trolled, THOSE HANDS WEREN"T RIKI AND RINS FROM THE PV omg really? who's was it? D: |
| Kurugaya and Riki, EDIT: Shit got real in the last minute |
egnaro315 said: Kurugaya and Riki ugh, so there will be romance in Kurugaya's route? |
| Masato and kud fans are going to love the ed lol |
egnaro315 said: I feel so trolled, THOSE HANDS WEREN"T RIKI AND RINS FROM THE PV LOL didn't expect it too. Looks like tonnes of the material in the PV was from the very first episode :o |
| Well, the bullying sure lasted for a short time. Both Kud and Komari were victims and then Riki found out the culprits right away thanks to Suginami who was conveniently standing outside of clubroom. I personally think this works too, having Kurugaya find out right away armed with evidence and then well, the murder of Door-kun. Then the last part of the episode... I like the art in the OP and ED! Seeing Kengo and Komari in the complete uniform was refreshing too. |

| It's good to hear Nishizono's original V.A again! HOLY CRAP! KURUGAYA YOU BEAST!!!! This episode was so satisfying! :D |
| I noticed that in the ED song, in front of Kyousuke there is a stick looking object. At first I thought that it was some sort of baseball bat, but when i looked at it again, Kyousuke's hands/arms look as if they are by his side. Does anyone have any ideas as to what that is? |
| Holy fuck, I've never seen Little Busters so SAVED before. http://puu.sh/4Ial3.png Thank you JC Staff. Why did we ever doubt you? They handled this better than literally everything to ever come out of season 1. It was amazing, my waifu in full glory. About the content of the episode, I really liked it. Riki taking charge, and there were a lot of foreshadowing hints regarding the Secret of the World. They're continuing to do some excellent setup for Refrain. I think there was, at most, 1 QUALITY scene in the entire episode for less than 2 seconds. The entire episode looked awesome for JC Staff, and this will definitely go up there with their other top works. I didn't think I'd like the story changes, but they're working out fine so far. |

I'm pretty sure its a baseball bat |
Ol-Hybrius said: Just finished ! The animation is definitivly better than season one's. And the tone is more serious also, nothing bad to say about OP and ED too. The episode still feels a bit "quick" to me (RIP Door-kun), and I'm confused with the flashbacks at the end. If Riki and Kurugaya have already been together, did this mean that Riki is reviving the routes again and again (while it was only once for each in the VN) ? Anyway, that was more than satisfaying. But I'm still worried, not about the animation anymore, but about some rush. Wait and see. ;) Hope you enjoyed that guest-pass :P, sadly cant get another for next week :( anyway, we still dnt knw how many episodes we going to get out of refrain.. 13... 24... or even 26.. im just scared to see them finally announce it :(, and maybe they rushing kurugaya's route to finally get into Rin/Refrain routes. |
| I'm so happy this anime is back I love it good first episode, the pancake party! :D I wanna have a pancake party.. Kurugaya scared even me at that one part the look in her eyes was terrifying |
| Romance confirmed or not? o.o |
| Soooooooooooooooooo glad to see them back. That was a hell of a first episode. Loved it. And it seems that Riki is getting struck by narcolepsy whenever he's trying to remember those lost memories. Interesting. |
 |
| Wow, JC Staff is really going quick with this route, but for some reason I'm actually enjoying it, that and the boost in the animation is just awesome. Not only that, there were so many freaking hints. I'm pretty sure some observant anime watchers might be able to tell the secret just from this episode alone (Although I could be wrong). Either way, it's good to see that JC Staff is actually trying, and I praise them for that. But now I'm curious on if the next 2 episodes will show what happened in those flashbacks, or just continue from where this episode ended. |
 |
| Wow, actually glad to have it back and what a serious episode, she was scary as hell there. The whole start seems much darker and serious than the first season, didn't disappoint. For a moment there I thought I sensed some romance vibes but now I'm not sure? Only disappointment is the music, not feeling the OP, ED right now, though it's hard to compete with the first season in that respect. Anyway great start! |
| Thank you J.C Staff for not fucking up with Refrain, I am actually happy with the first episode! All those hints to the secret of the world though /rolls |
