Such a great episode. This is definitely my favorite episode. Tbh, I don't really get all that much enjoyment from this series, but this episode has certainly changed that, if even for a little bit.

There isn't one episode where I can safety not say "poor Akarin"

Haha their childhood bully was no other than Chinatsu herself.

Penultimate episode of season 1, but doesn't feel like it for some reason. I'm happy they returned Kyoko to her original state, I missed her throughout the episode.

Good episode, but this show still isn't among my favorite SoLs.

Yes, not exactly the most amiable character here.

Oh Gawd, they've met as kids.. And Chinatsu badmouthed herself without knowing. I wish all of them noticed her in the photo album tho. Akarin too nice, she didn't tell anything <3

"Yui, you idiot! Chinatsu, I like you! Also, Akariin~" lmao

Kyoko falling from the stairs LMAO, kill meh. I might like Kyoko more than I think.

Ayano x Chitose next ep? Hmmmmmm its ok, I guess? Ayano x Kyoko is better tho.

Oh wow, that Yui kick to Chinatsu was savage lol
Everyone was like all confused by the new Kyouko personality. I thought she pretty cool, being so formal but oh well.

And Chinatsu seemed a bit hesitant when everyone was wanting the old Kyouko back. She was beginning to like the formal Kyouko. It's always fun to see Himawari and Sakurako argue, really enjoy seeing those two have screen time.

The first part was very nice. Loli Yui was tomboyish, yet cute and reliable. Kyouko was adorable! :D
The second part was silly. xD I'm glad Kyouko went back to normal again. I like her cheerful personality (Yui's "confession" in this regard was so powerful! ;_;).
Poor Akarin gets a beating in the end. lol Yui picked the crowbar (Gordon Freeman approve).

This show just keeps giving me reasons to dislike Chinatsu. She has always been absolutely unbearable. Oh well.

The drama was super forced but I admit it made me kinda sad to see Kyouko act so differently. I prefer her kirky personality best.

One more to go...

Kyaaa. Seeing little Akarin with long hair, Kyoko being a crybaby, Yui being so boyish. *nose starts to bleed like Chitose* So fucking cute! :3

I honestly didn't know until this episode that Yui and Kyoko are friends with Akarin since childhood. Ugh. Have I missed something or the show did it on purpose because they're treating Akarin like a pop-up thing? Pfffft. What the fuck did I just say.

Who would've thought that Chinatsu was the one who bullied them when they're still kids? Hahahahahahaha! Jesus, Chinatsu!

Ugh. I wanna pull out my hair when Kyoko changed her persona after hitting her head because she fell down the stairs. And seeing these girls missing her shenanigans hurt me and warmed my heart--which hurt them, too. Glad our real Kyoko came back after they hit her head. Jesus. Don't let her hit her head again! Haha.

"You can be troublesome, thoughtless, and self-centered, but that was a lot of fun! I never knew what you'd do, and you made me a lot of crazy stuff, but it was fun! I like the fun you give me! So come back. Be the person you used to be." - Yui

The feels, maaan. Wasn't expecting this show will give me loads of feels. This is your fault, Kyoko. Absidfbasdiughaogd!

5/5. ;-;

AKARIIIIIIIIIN changed persona, too, after hitting her head! Hahahahahaha. Damnit, girls. Be nice to Akarin and don't hit her head all at once. Hahahaha.

The past of the protagonists made me think: as you change over time, perhaps the statement that people never change is not true. Funny the question of bump, poor Akari, she does not bring luck.

Ooh a little view from the past in the start but Akari didn't like that replacing her title call, They were so cute when they were just little kids from the past and they actually met Chinatsu in the past already but Akari is the only one who's aware

Kyoko hit her head when she fell on the stairs that's got to hurt but the thing is her personality changed and things got a little boring and it's not the same

But after that they fixed her by I mean hitting her in the head again and after that Akari was the next one and she got a little more attention at the end.

Aww, they were all so adorable in that flashback. :3

And Chinatsu was such a meanie back then.

The second part was hilarious with Kyuoko's new personality. However, some of friends, especially Yui, got very sad and she wanted the good old Kyouko back.

one of worst episodes. They should have let kyoko be like good natured instead of pampering her. It would have made everyone happy. Same for Akarin. She is more noticable and happier.


Also, i dont think the pink haired girl in flashback was chinatsu coz she was wearing rabbit hairpins instead of beady hairpins

Without change,we end up becoming the very person we hate.


I was dead until the moment I met you. I was a powerless corpse pretending to be alive. Living without power, without the ability to change my course, was bound to lead me to a slow death.

The childhood flashbacks were really cute. Akarin with long hair for the win, she'd look so much more mature if she had it in middle school.

Also of course this series couldn't help itself and have them all technically know each other from childhood. I was screaming for Akarin to say something at the end of the scene!

Shocked they made Kyouko very timid when they were younger. The middle chunk was interesting cause it posits that if Kyouko was anything but herself the series would be even more flat.

This feels like it should've been the last episode but I guess we'll see how the stick the landing.
