Even though the next episodes are probably going to be very painful and depressing. I am going to watch it anyways...

Looks pretty grim at the moment and I'm sure it's gonna get a lot worse. Not sure if I like this anime or hate it at this point.

this was such a bittersweet episode!

i love such cute heartwarming episodes....and this anime starts to remind me alot of clannad :),if only it was longer

I don't think Rika will be fine...but i hope she will :),i'm seriously thinking giving this a 9 or a 10

5/5 for the episode
Sayonara,papa!

Well this was better than the last 3 episodes, I actually felt a bit bad when Rika fell at the end.

I liked the part with the nurse racing with her car. I wonder if Rika is going to die in the next episode. Anything can happen in the next two episodes.

Really good episode.
I'll be surprised if Rika survives.

She can't die before they kiss.

yeah, it didnt fustrate me as much but it was still a drag to watch, maybe JUST MAYBE if this series had a better sense of its surrounding and didnt haphazardly switch between slapstick comedy and drama in the matter of an instant and maybe if they made the relationip's progression less hindered by the most bullshit misunderstandings and overreactions then this could have been a really emoitonal series and episode, but no......its still shit. If the last 2 episodes can miraculously improve then this could possibly average out to a 4/10 from me but i strongly doubt it will

Jizzy as you would call yourself because youre a dick The most butthurt award goes to you And clearly you havent watched that many shows thats why you cant determine if a show is unique or not Or maybe you're just a child who likes common stuffs where hero saves the day and guys gets all the girls. Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me

Zebraman was the star of the show.

I'll take anything like The Pet Girl of Sakurasou. Anything as good as that.

Asking questions like that to a dying person is not nice. Unfortunate ending... I guess her and the show's ending is nearing.

Rika and Yuiichi are so cute... I feel so bad cause I don't think she's going to make it... but I really hope she does!



Zebra Mask is the best character though XD

But... what is wrong with the nurses and doctors of this anime!? That car race... D:

My stomach hurt from laughing when the doctor started roaring the very instant he finished talking to Yuuichi. How hammy can you get? XD

It's a shame all the (intentional) gag and comedy scenes this anime has aren't funny in the least. This anime has one of the most scatterbrained, unfocused narratives I've ever seen. It doesn't build up to any of its scenes, events, or revelations; and promptly forgets about them entirely the moment they're finished. Nothing happened in this episode besides having a bunch of stock characters chatting with each other over inconsequential details that contribute nothing to the premise.

Narcissu and Niji no Kanata ni are visual novels that do everything this anime does better, and the latter isn't even an hour long.
