Koko is just trying to do what seems right from her POV. It might not be the most intelligent solution but I kinda understand how she feels. She's actually suffering a lot too, the anime just hasn't shown it.

It was obvious Linda was still in love, she just decided to hide it because the new Banri is Koko's man. The story is getting very intense, emotional and very interesting. Too bad there's only two left.

Can't wait.

Well apparently they are making a VN so you can play that to get the Linda end if it doesn't turn out that way in the anime :)

Aha! That is good news! All hail the Linda route canon! (in my mind)

The drama is so forced in this episode, and series for that matter. I don't even blame Koko for breaking up with Banri. He has such a weak, fickle personality that even I can't handle it as a watcher. Dude seriously needs to grow a pair and get his shit together.

Shit's getting escalated, sweet. Koko's way of going out there and saying nonchalantly that they broke-up but still remained being friends is really cynic, I didn't expect that.

We all know it probably will have a Koko x Banri ending but one can only hope for that Linda x Banri.

DAMN. Everything's finally coming out. I swear if Banri and Koko don't end up together... Really though this show has just done a ridiculously good job of making me care about the characters and their relationships. I'm hoping it all ends with Banri facing his old self instead of running, and the old Banri goes away forever. Topped off with Banri proposing to Koko and them getting engaged or something.
Fuck Thursdays and all the drama from all these shows! Golden Time, Nagi no Asukara, Kill la Kill, and now even Chunibyo has decided to get all dramatic. Thank God Tokyo Ravens is on Wednesday and not Thursday or I wouldn't be able to handle all of this.

I guess I am the only one who didn't view that scene with Linda as an indication that she loves him like that.

To me that scene indicated that she is still really worried/feels guilty about his injury and how it is still affecting his life. She seemed really to focus on redoing things so he doesn't get hurt. Whether she would have agreed to date him at that time is beside the point. CURRENTLY she is trying to help him get his life in order and to move on from things. That is all she has ever tried to do (apart from the possibility that she liked him in HS). She is a red herring, meant to drive up possible drama just because there potentially could be there (even though its not).

If Koko saw that vid and decided to break up with him it was NOT because she is worried about Linda. She is worried about Banri forgetting her (this was exacerbated by the discovery of his medication).


imo there is no love triangle drama as all parties are fine with Linda being just friends with Banri and Banri dating Koko.

Seriously, you people hate Koko for this episode?

What choice did she have? She's trying to cut all of her connection with Banri not only to save her from the pain she may suffer when Banri forgets everything with her altogether, but also to help Banri ease the pain he has when he's fighting to maintain his consciousness. She knew that Banri was taking medications, she asked her father and she knew that Banri was in terrible pain. For so long has she's been staying by his side, motivating him, but all that didn't work, he kept running away.

If Banri didn't fight his old self and let it return naturally, there might be less pain for him. Koko may think this way and try to "dump" him. You people seriously think that it was easy and painless for her to do such a thing after her relationship with Banri had grown this far?

This episode felt rushed. There was no build up to the scene with Banri and Linda at all. He was filming with Chinami in the lunch area, and then the next thing you know, he's yelling and arguing with Linda in the club room.

Koko shouldn't have acted that way to Banri. That was too damn cruel. How can you break up with someone like that and then act like nothing happened the next day. Banri also should've told Koko everything. He's always hiding stuff from her. Their relationship has been a mess.

Just when Banri x Linda seemed long gone because Mitsuo came into the equation this happens. I am really hoping Linda wins and guessing by Kouko's actions if she keeps it up Linda will win.

Kouko is being too stubborn, but she's only avoiding being heart broken because Banri won't do something about his problem.

Guess #TeamLinda is going to win.

That was wrong If i were koko i would have a serious talk with bannri First about taking depression pills and knowing the consequences second, after watching a clip of him getting a breakdown I talk to him about getting help and knowing that my father is a doctor then getting help with his contacts and people who know about amnesia and last I wouldn't ever break up with a person like that the way koko did u_u... even rinda knows how to friend-zone in a non hurtful way

what was this episode? the drama that was missing in the latest episodes was in throughout this
so much has happened that Banri stay with Nana now it will not surprise
was hallucinating, until I thought Kouko was joking
Linda does have some feelings for Banri?
missing 2 episodes and the climax arrived ..

puta que pariu!

o foi este episodio? o drama que faltou nos ultimos episodios estava todo neste
aconteceu tanta coisa que se Banri ficar com Nana agora não será surpresa
foi alucinante, até eu pensei que Kouko estivesse brincando
será que Linda tem algum sentimento por Banri?
faltam 2 episodios e o climax chegou ..

Holy crap, someone totally flipped the drama switch. As much as I am a Koko fan, her crass attitude is a major turn off for me this episode. The episode preview last week totally left me off guard and I did not expect things to go that down south. I totally expected for things to resolve quickly.

I need to stop looking at episode previews, they kind of lead you off and generally do not fit the mood so it feels jarring.

It reminds me of reading manga that has a 'chibi-fied' omake right after a major character death the previous chapter.

Sadly I think they'll pull some last chapter shenanigans or leave us with an open ending.
That was a pretty intense episode. Damn roller-coaster.
He was sad, he was thoughtful, he was happy, sad again, shocked, faking being all right, sad again. Banri had a lot this episode.

You have to look at this from both sides.

Linda had her chance, and yeah she wishes she could go back and fix that, but she sees Banri and Koko, and telling him to not make the same mistake pretty much I guess.

She's happy for him, but at the same time all hurt I'm guessing.
Though I'm all frustrated now. :[


This episode just proves that she can't deny it anymore and that Banri memories coming back and his constant flashbacks of Linda kinda surely implied this sort of ending


Reading on another topic about this all and apparently it's a spoiler but read on this if you want spoiled though..


yeaah.. idk.
