the original visual novel opted for the cute x retarded moe girls.

the way theyre depicted in the anime version kind of took out the cute aspect and just left the fans with retarded girls.

trust me, i was skeptical so i played through common route again. even though they put in key plot points, were missing ALOT of the in the moment interactions.

its mostly due to the directing. the game features some different tsukkomi patterns that the anime just doesnt deliver

I just noticed this, but Riki's classroom is on the second floor. Kyousuke is as ninja as always :D


If you played the Visual Novel, you would notice that when Kengo and Masato threw Rin up to the second floor window to get into class :P; during the short 5-15 second minigame

ah yes, and also many other moments. Btw this is kinda off topic but has anyone who played the vn actually made rin land perfectly in the classroom?


I have done it, but not the first time.

Nice episode, I wasn't watching the backgrounds but reading subs.

Can you not tempt me to waste another 2 hours on trying it?

Guys, is Kud's seiyuu the same from the VN? I remember that they announced only Mio's would change from the main heroines, but now I went to check and I noticed Kud has a different seiyuu on the anime (which I barely noticed, which is good! Not that Kud had many lines so far).

Looks like the boys especially masato, kengo and kyousuke has fallen victim to lazy animation, at least its still better than still frames (flashback in episode 1 -.- ). I'm still waiting patiently for my SHAKA SHAKA HEY!! :(

And for those people who think the girls are mentally handicapped, at least Haruka has a reason for the way she acts, but I kinda agree for Komari :L


why is haruka slow?

if spoiler i dont want.

yeah spoiler, but there are some hints in in this episode which gives out clues for when we reach her arc. Btw what makes you think she's slow?, just wondering.


not really slow but she acts weird but i guess thats her character. and the girls in this show except for the black haired one act like 5 year olds.

Bit offtopic but, i'm glad that KyoAni didn't animate LB because in every anime they have made, their kiss scenes have never been fully revealed. I haven't played the VN so I don't know if there are any kiss scenes but if they do I'll be more than happy to see J.C animate it, just like ToraDora :P.

"Riki, don't you remember what I said?!"
"No."
"I don't remember either."

I don't know why that cracked me up so much, but it did. Good old muscles.

Haruka is kind of an airhead, but she's pretty thoughtful and useful if she wants. Judging from Kanata and her hair color there may be a connection between the two. Kanata looked kinda ticked off when she saw Haruka's friends helping her.

That explains it! They pointed different people on Wikipedia, so I got confused because the voices looked identical.

What about Kanata's seiyuu? Is it still the same? I notice the anime Kanata's voice deeper than it was in the game.

Yeah If you look at the credits the VA for Kanata is still the same and I agree it does sound deeper since a few years have passed.

One thing to say about the people who says that the characters are childish, I agree they can be and they are set up like that to emphasise their character traits which helps greatly in the routes.

Also why not act childish? They are in their second last year of school. When one leaves school, a person will be exposed to society with work or university. School will be the last time to act carefree and child like until one gets used to society. In that sense, the characters are acting this way to make the most of school life and their youth.

Well, the Haruka arc didn't start yet. The trust Riki puts into Haruka is just beautiful. He believes in his friends no matter what happens. The way he saved Haruka from the disciplinary committee was the highlight of the episode. That and when Haruka fixed the desk for Masato. Haruka has a strong sense of responsibility although she is immature at times. This episode was great, though I'd like to see the Haruka arc progress more. The next episode is going to be about Kud, eh? Well, that's not bad since Kud is so cute and moe and I'm probably a secret lolicon... They're also FINALLY going to introduce Mio next episode! She's my favorite character and finally going to make an anime appearance! YATTA!

Wow, I wasn't expecting too much out of this episode, since the first time I met Haruka I hated her because she was so annoying, but...wow...

She gives off a MUCH better impression in this than the VN, and I quite enjoyed this episode. I'm looking forward to her arc, since the animators and story people seem to know what they're doing.

We actually get to SEE Mio next episode though, somewhat. Considering her character and story, it's actually fitting she's introduced so late.


On the other hand, the rest of the heroines all knew Riki already, and all aside Komari were already friends of him. So yeah, basically Mio is the one heroine that Riki didn't know at all.

This episode was more enjoyable than others, but it's still not what it could've been and I can't help but think that.
The marbles, for example, just looked really, really cheap. They didn't fit in properly at all.
This episode's drama was forgettable, if it was supposed to be drama at all.
So far this entire show has been forgettable, I wonder if the amazing parts are still to come or if this is it.

IIRC KyoAni was busy with other works, or at least that was the official reason. But would this show have gotten an adaptation from another studio if they would've waited longer? I don't know, but it certainly would've been a lot better if that had happened.
I almost never read discussions after I made my post, if you want to reply PM me or post on my profile page.
