| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Its here! :D Discuss!~~~ |
| I found Kengo helping Masato study weirder than snowing in june LOL. YES SONG FOR FRIENDS!! MY TEARS. Okay guys try to avoid VN discussions this time. |
| Anything about love? What happens to Rin? And were Riki and Kurugaya dating |
| CHIBIGAYA!!!!!!!!!!!!! that is it, J.C Staff is god now, forget all their past screw ups, for they have graced us with the amazingness of chibigaya :3 anyway this is definitely the saddest ending in the anime so far for me QQ but half way through the ep I was thinking "Huh, Kurugaya route without Kurugaya, nice" waahhh, those visuals, song for friends, so amazing T-T I'll ask some questions in the VN thread~ |

DeathDoUsPart said: Anything about love? What happens to Rin? And were Riki and Kurugaya dating friend zone my friend. We should save these comparisons for the VN discussion thread. Anyways here is some loli Kurugaya http://i1306.photobucket.com/albums/s569/egnaro315/Kurugayasmall_zps29e78987.png And kyousuke looking sexy in the rain as always. I also found it a bit funny that Kurugaya was always in the distance looking over the Little Busters! but it was touching. |
| Loligaya, my life is complete. |
| Wafuu~ |
| Good episode. I cried a bit at the end. ... But what concerns me is that the animation quality is worsening on this episode. Only the last scene is animated well. Guess they put more budget onto the lighting. |
| @inuvivo on twitter! |
| Damn, I felt the emotions running through under that rain already. Beautiful episode overall. The OST matches perfectly and a mini Kurugaya? HHHHHHHGGGGG Wow, the ending to this episode....also....just wow. Mini Kurugaya picture: http://i.imgur.com/yuQP4QW.png |
 |
| Oh my gosh. JC, I love you now! Damn it. Too much feels for this ep. Greatest ep yet for LB! And there's more to come. Beautiful OST placing. Almost everything was perfect. And loli Anego is just kawaii. |

There's also quite a few flashbacks that made the quality look worse. Hopefully it's just for this episode... Very good episode too ;_; A lot of things is happening... |
"Now's the time for you to run towards the day you awaken from this dream." ~Boys be Smile |
| What Happened to Rin? :P since she was in one of the PV Pictures. |

| |
| At least a good hand full of the flashbacks are redrawn so it didn't seem like a cheap way to save money to me, but I think it will remind some people of the quality in season 1. |
| *Song For Friends by Rita plays*. Might've teared up a little.... :') BEAUTIFUL! |
| That episode, those tears, this transient world. It's too much for me! |
| Part of Refrain Subs for Little Busters!: Refrain Recently Played/Read VNS (Most Recent to Oldest): - Da Capo - Grisaia no Kajitsu - ef - a fairy tale of the two - G-senjou no Maou - Sharin no Kuni, Himawari no Shoujo & Sharin no Kuni, Yuukyuu no Shounenshoujo (Fan Disk) - Rewrite - Hoshizora no Memoria -Wish upon a shooting star- - Clannad - Little Busters EX! |
| Well, that was my least favorite route ending... But the 'what I want stuff' is coming~ Kyousuke, you sexy <3 |
| Oh my god... JC Staff, I love you, you manage to make this route ending both emotional and enjoyable, thank you! (And you placed Song for Friends correctly!) I really like the snow effect they did during the conversation between Kurugaya and Riki, it made the scene that much better. Now that we are done with Kurugaya's route, it's now time for the main story, I can't wait :) |
 |
| Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! Not my Kurugaya!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So many tears...... We knew but.... still.... so good, but so sad..... The OP, OST, insert songs, ED... so good... so good.... |
| At the end of ep.3, Riki wakes up, opens window and he smiles. Rage!! Riki, Kurugaya cried so much, how could you forget it and smile like nothing ever happened. So cruel. |
| Sorry for my poor english |

So cruel. Well, probably because he literally forgot everything? Yes, I know he literally forgot everything and it isn't his fault but I still think that's too cruel. |
| Sorry for my poor english |
| YES!!! That was soooo gooood!!!! SOOOO Beautiful!!! Dem Feeeeels!!! Thank u JC!!!! I teared up so much TT __ TT Yuiko's smile is <3<3<3<3 Kyousuke in the Rain T^T But, to tell the truth this ep won't be as emotional to anime only watchers. It's gonna affect VN players more imo. Because we know why she's talking like it's the last time...etc Bravo JC! Bravo!! Brilliantly done! And they did it without romance too. I didn't expect them to be able to pull it off but they did wonderfully :*) Also Dat OST placement was really great. Song for friends with the snow visual affects at the end was damn GOOD!! DA FEEELS! My heart! My tears T_T!! Nxt up...Rin and Riki. Dat PV. Dat Hype!! :D |

| Praise kami-sama staffing! This anime adaption of Kurugayas route made me love her route even more. One of my favorite routes now even if it was a sad ending:') LOLIGAYA!!! Points for that |
| "Protect Rin" DAMMIT!!!!! THAT MADE ME FEEL WAY WORSE D: best route ending, followed by Mio's, Komari's, Haruka's then Kud's (for anime version at least ;D) |
| |

THAT MADE ME FEEL WAY WORSE D: best route ending, followed by Mio's, Komari's, Haruka's then Kud's (for anime version at least ;D) |
| I wonder if saying protect Rin will take away Well I don't think it will. This scene was beautiful and I'm pretty sure they can make that one even more emotional ^^ |
|
| "Protect Rin" YES! Protect your love Riki! :3 Loved this episode, It was so sad~ Actually teared up alot, and LoliGaya! Best! Poor Kurugaya though.. |
smilewolfy said: "Protect Rin" DAMMIT!!!!! THAT MADE ME FEEL WAY WORSE D: best route ending, followed by Mio's, Komari's, Haruka's then Kud's (for anime version at least ;D) Same here. Tears started after that ;__; And LOL that reference.... |
 |
| And all the memories will turn into nothing...... so sad... |

Barion-Zara said: Kyousuke in the Rain T^T Pretty much the highlight of this episode for me. |
| Wow this was really sad... Good adaption of her route by JC; KyoAni wouldn't have done any better (they would just air the same episode 20 times again) Next episode the romance will commence...small chance we might still get (21)(21)hunters |

Nothing wrong with being a 21con |

| I didn't play the VN so it's hard sometimes to follow and understand the story, but it sure was a very sad episode, the last two episodes made me like Kurugaya more and more... and now they take her away just like that... that's unfair :'( |
 |
| Man I am so lost...am I the only one who feels that way? Is Refrain just different routes Riki takes with each female character? So confused and now I need to watch the whole season to make sense of it all! |
| Wow, some crazy supernatural stuff going on. Pretty powerful episode, very emotional at the end. Really liking this. Reminds me of shows like Clannad, Kannon, etc.. Can't wait to see how this all unfolds. |
