| After Golden Time episode awful letdown, this was a refreshing set of pace. Ogiso is my favorite couple for this anime, somehow this is starting to feel like white album first season story-line starting to play out once again..... As much I know for certain white album 1st was bad, I do still remember the storyline and plot, and how much horrible the main lead person is. Yet somehow, after this episode and Touma stating "white album is starting", the cycle of the main themes of the first white album is going to fruition. I feel this is the best romance episode, in the entire fall season maybe the entire year. The episode reminds me, very much of 5 cm per second at the last chapter where you just enjoy the music and the different scenes of their journey throughout the their whole time. If they ended the anime here, I would be fully satisfied with it, yet happily it's not the end. It's probably the end of the happy stuff and onto drama part of the series. I'm rooting for Ogiso to win in the end of it all, though I also wish for Touma to have her happy ending. |
| ah curse you Haruki! Touma is so much more sexier.. oh well first come first serve I suppose.. |

| Just explained to two other people that felt they were "cheated" by Satelight, because of the song was not included....lol people who haven't played the VN yet. |

| This episode was like, the most perfect yet most imperfect episode of the series, if anyone actually knows what I mean. Edit: Really, though, mad props to Kitahara's voice actor, especially during the time he was talking to Touma. The way that his breath was airy while talking to her felt so sincere, concerned, and downright breathtaking because of how strong I, myself, can feel Kitahara's emotions through his voice. That was such a masterful scene for me, no matter how subtle or small the aspect I'm praising may be. |

| Oh damn it's on. I was trolled so bad by the first episode. They made it look like he liked Touma. |

| MEN, FINALLY A KISS....i was totally 100% sure that Haruki like Touma because i got a lot of Touma x Haruki vibes in this episode but after that kiss i don't know anymore. Nice job Setsuna i'm rooting for U but a lot can still happen in the remaining episode. This is getting really intense. |

| Damn that was unexpected. I thought he will choose Kazuza over Setsuna... And when I'm hoping for Kazuza route too... Could someone who've played the VN give me some spoiler? Did that scene happen in both route or exclusive for Setsuna route... If this scene locked the story to Setsuna Route then I will "DROP" this anime!!! Nah, just kidding. It's one of the best anime this season IMO, so I will see it till the end even if the ending doesn't come out as a I hope for... I guess I just need to play the VN and play Kazuza route myself if that happen, lol. |
 |
| I'm loving this series. The pacing is great and it all feels natural. Easily my favorite show of the season. Also, that was the best concert scene I've seen since Hinagiku performed Zankoku no Tenshi no Teze in Hayate S2 |

Various routes are on the 2nd chapter, which is known as Closing Chapter, and the existence of Kazusa's route is on the 3rd chapter, which is known as Coda. |

| As a fellow guitar player I had a huge smile on my face when Haruki pulled off that solo (still have it actually)! I have a feeling that Haruki likes Touma more and he will regret not dodging Setsuna soon enough... Just no Nice Boat endings please!!! |
| wait wait...wat? ehhhhhhhhhhhhh.....wat was that? uhm i dont understand he...accepted her? after all that development between Touma and Haruki,after all that light shone on Touma...the hell? i r officially confused D: |
| I think kitahara miscommunicated to touma thus she took it as an indirect rejection. The flower he always admired was her...and the girl he wanted to be friends with is setsuna. That's why he thought of her before he kissed setsuna. and looks like toumas mother attended the concert. I predict she was impressed by toumas performance and invites her to paris...which fixes her university problem and also now....her broken heart. |

| Dat Tears to Tiara OP at the start. |
| My god. Why can't this VN have a completed patch? ;_; Brilliant as always. I didn't think it was even possible for me to grow more attached to this series than I already have been. |
| I don't know but I think this show will end in a terrible way... |
| Is it just me or there are more Touma fans than Setsuna? Then why oh why most of us (including me of course) are rating this episode with a 5/5?! |

| This episode made me Setsuna fan alright. Down with the indecisive tsundere, sorry, but that is the life - if you want something you have to know that you want it and fight for it. Life is all about fist come first served, that's all. |

| So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old? I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them? I wonder how long people would put up with this. As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series. |

But like you said, I also heard the anime is Kazusa-bias though I dunno about that. |

| The original White Album main heroines are singers... so yes Ogiso Setsuna is the main heroine and to me it looks like Setsuna is the amalgamation of Morikawa Yuki + Ogata Rina (has both their characteristics) While Kazusa Touma is more similar to Yuki's manager Shinozuka Yayoi which was only secondary heroine I prefer Ogiso btw~ |
shanimebib said: Is it just me or there are more Touma fans than Setsuna? Then why oh why most of us (including me of course) are rating this episode with a 5/5?! Because even though we like Touma more we also like Setsuna. At least that's how it's for me. |

Harujin said: that the two "competing" shipping factions are so unusually friendly toward each other unlike most other romance shows. But once Coda starts, that will be surely the beginning of the shitstorm. |
|
| Does anyone else think there is some interesting chemistry between Touma and Setsuna, particularly in this episode? Touma joined the club because of Setsuna, the way she looks at her, her decision to stay in the costume Setsuna chose even after the concert. I know that's not the way this series is going, but I would not be averse to the two of them ending up together. |
 |
| If they make it into a one heroine biased story, imagine the rage of all the people... maybe they'll use "that" route then... and yeah shitstorm people... |
| Shitt , I want Touma ! :'c I sense some tragic love triangle going on , dun dun duuun. 5/5. |

| Amazing episode, best one yet! The whole festival performance was done so well. The songs were really nice. God dammit this is probably the only anime where both heroines are likeable. Kazusa is so talented, able to play the piano/keyboard, saxophone and bass guitar. She looked really cute in her outfit even if it was quite revealing for her. ;) Setsuna also looked really pretty during the performance. That last scene and that kiss, just wow. From here onwards, the real drama begins... Oh god, I don't know if my body is ready. :S 5/5 |

| Another dense as hell mc. Seriously dude? She asked what university and wants to take the same major as you, stay and with you? Frustrates me to no end every time. |

PGKRyousuke said: The reason why Touma is wearing such an embarrassing outfit? it's probably because the writers think the fans might like it(?)... well at least that is how i took it... it felt more like a fanservice to meOkay! Another thought of my own ... WHY DOES SETSUNA MAKE TOUMA WEARING SUCH AN "EMBARRASSING" OUTFIT, while she is mostly covered in white dress? Well ... They look very nice for sure, but does it reveal part of Setsuna's inner nature? Anyone curious about this? It might just be me. |

PGKRyousuke said: Ahaha! Yea in terms of audience's perspective this is definitely a fan service. What I'm trying to bring out is that in the drama, Setsuna is the one choosing the outfit. So is Setsuna playing a trick here? I probably think too much on this one ... Haha! You're just thinking to it too much, even in the VN the "topic" was never brought up again. |

| Amazing!! This series is on its way to being my 3rd rated 10 series. It's not guarantee yet it still needs to not only keep this pace but progress more so that means no slow eps but who ever he chooses will be bad since I love both setsuna n touma so idk about that but he HAS to choose 1 if not that will ruin it |
 |
| Worst episode by far. It's easily one of the most important scenes in the whole story, that will be remembered over and over again, and they did a job this poor I'm speechless. The uncountable amount of QUALITY, barely any movement during the concert, half of the time it's just static pan or simply just a zoom in on the lighting, what the hell is that for? Then the talk between Haruki and Kazusa after the concert is awkward as hell too. Overall just a disappointment, even much worse than the episodes before. They better fix it in the BD. |
