Oh God, Tomoko:

The delusion of Tomoko with that punk like outfit and bunny ears just cracked me up. The music this episode was okay I guess? Tomoko doesn't look like she's having fun though.

I like the theme of this episode. Damn, that school event looked fun. Such a cute ending imo

Preparing for cultural festival, and Tomoko is being gray. It's nice that she was able to talk with the classmates and contributed with the preparation (I thought she would get lazy), though the guys are doing it fast. Nonaka-san as that Cultural festival rep.! She's so nice. Did she steal one of the cosplay costumes to show it to Yuu-chan?

And the day of cultural festival. Yuu-chan came with her friends. Tomoko wanted to "impress" people with her having a cute friend, she became have fun herself.

Wow, nice ED with Nonaka-san's character caring for Tomoko. "Sokora no Nuigurumi no Fuusen to Watashi (そこらの着ぐるみの風船と私)" by Velvet.kodhy and Velvet.kodhy and μ and μ (Velvet,KodhyとVelvet,Kodhyとμとμ)

LOL@her curse. And she thought like a dirty old man when she met Yuu-chan. lol

It was a touching moment when she was hugged by the girl of the student council. Glad those around her are nice and likable throughout the entire series.

No matter how many school-based anime series I watch, I never get tired of the
obligatory annual school cultural festival episode. Very often, I find that the
cultural festival episode ends up being the most memorable episode of an entire
series. It would be wonderful if we did something like that in high school in my
part of the world.

If I was Tomoko I would have a huge crush on Yuu-Chan and the committee girl. She's actually very lucky to have a lot of kind people around her.

Hahahahha the blood scene though!

This was pretty bittersweet episode, Tomoko looked as if she didn't enjoy the fevistal @ first bein gray & all but she actually did try to help & with her friend things got better & with that girl that was looking out for her & giving her the hug, shows she's not totally invisible .

Funny parts were def the anime references like K-on & her perverted thoughts of groping her only friend . Can't wait to see what happens next.

Ha, the Haruhi reference. I was hoping they'd do one as soon as she mentioned performing.

Ugh, I shipped Tomoko with Yuu-chan already, but now I ship her with the cultural festival committee chairman too! That ending was so cute, guh. I hope there's more with her in the last episode.

Not a very funny episode compared to some we've seen before. But I'm happy that someone in her school finally took notice of her and gave her a bit of love. That girl needs all the help and sympathy she can get.

The committee girl know Tomoko's situation with just one visit to her classroom. I guess it is unusual for her classmate to ignore Tomoko's existence. No one hate her nor care to give her responsible during the festival.

Anyway, the committee girl remind me of Sekai Saionji xD

As soon as they said "Light Music Club" I expected a K-On reference.

And I suspected the anime Yuu was talking about watching was Steins;Gate, since a certain event happening in the middle of the show is when it gets good, but since SG already had its movie made it must be something else.

I think this is my favourite episode of the series.

Tomoko looked so happy when she was hugged by Yuu, and that Committee Chairman girl was so sweet, she actually went up to Tomoko's class to find out about her. And she understood Tomoko's situation in what, a day? I <3 her for that hug and balloon she gave Tomoko at the end, that was very considerate of her. I hope they become friends. I've never seen any senior care so much for a junior. Atleast not my seniors in highschool... >_>

And as for Tomoko's 'lust' for Yuu, it's not actually lust. It's like Tomoko said, when you are as lonely as her, just a hug from a single friend can make you can make you feel wanted and loved, and take your mind off of being lonely. Ask anyone who's been in her situation.

Her classmates are clueless and inconsiderate as usual.... >_>

As soon as I heard 'Light Music Club' I wanted a K-On!! reference, and I got a Haruhi reference too! And they made Mugi's hair black! Not cool >:|
Although, if they didn't then KyoAni would probably sue them I guess... atleast Yui is recognizable.

All in all, I'm very happy for Tomoko. I wish people around me were as nice as the people around Tomoko. And I think she could speak just a bit easier with strangers this ep. She has grown!

End-card was interesting, can't wait for next Monday! :3

I watched this when I have a History midterm tomorrow... uh.. oops.

Nice all-around episode: funny sarcastic moments (the curse), touching moments (the hug), weird moments (when Motoko acts like a perv). Thoses references and that soothing ending. I also liked how black her blood was portrayed.

I'm going to miss Mokocchi.

God damn this anime just gets worse and unfunnier with every episode, I liked the first 3 episodes but since all it's done is make me cringe and give me the ability to laugh less then I did when watching higurashi, It's an anime pandering the the emo fans with no social ability and a main character less likable then that one twat from game of thrones, anyone else?

In the manga, Tomoko met the festival committee girl for the first time in the
gym. But in the anime, Tomoko ran into the committee girl for the first time in
the hall when she was bleeding, and got blood all over the printed flyers. Then
Tomoko saw her for the 2nd time in the gym. That is in Chapter 20 of the
manga.

The scene where Tomoko and Yuu-chan hug each other is pretty much the same
in the manga as in the anime. See Chapter 21, Page 7.

I was thinking Clannad After Story.

Anyhoo this was my favourite episode so far. Starts off with her calling her classmates Shit-wads (not heard that expression in a while!) but by the end she was enjoying the experience with Yuu. It was good to see she got such a sweet hug at the end by the Committee Chairman and a balloon. Which was nice.

These 2 last episodes were sad/depressing rather than funny/depressing ;_;
Tomoko is realizing how lonley she is without being cynic about it.

Nope, she bought it at a store, which was a waste of money since she didn't have the courage to ask for a shift at the cosplay cafe, she might have learned how to speak to people outside her comfort zone.

it would have been hilarious if at the end when the chairman pulls Tomoko in to hug her, she would have also grabbed her butt (as Tomoko intended to do with Yuu).

I just realized that the scene at the end is supposed to be the consultations Tomoko does with her brother, I wonder if in the last episode he will kick her out of the room.
