| That was nice. Banri grew more on me, even if the backbone he showed by being firm with Kaga was instigated by a mental breakdown. I think that the ghost thingy is just a representation of a hidden consciousness of himself. Basically, his memories are in there, somehow trapped but not interacting with his conscious self. Kind of like a double personality. She might've confessed, but I don't think it will be smooth sailing. I see a possible triangle/conflict involving Mitsuo as well. And the thing with Linda could be added to the mix too, which could make things messy. |
| Chinami's rejection is very bad.It's hell for Mitsuo.But I still love her. I feel bad for Linda.Poor girl ... But good news,Kaga and Tada started dating <3 |
 |
| Exceptional exceeded all my expectations. |
 |
| Kouko's confession felt off? I think she's lying to keep him by her side? Meh maybe it's my wishful thinking. |
| And that's how you try to get out of the friendzone gentlemen. Loving the series. I hope Linda does something as well. Because it seemed Koko just didn't wanted Banri stopping being her friend so she said that. Can't wait for next episode. |
 |
| Wow that confession was faker then reality-tv. |
| I hadn't even considered the reason Tada was in hospital was because he had attempted suicide. I thought it was just the bridge had broken or something. RazorRamona200 said: Flash back, does Banri have to be a cry baby just because his name wasn't included in their graduation shirt? Boy , he could have just said so in a nice way instead of sulking like that. Somehow, I'm beginning to think that he got reject by Linda and in a fit of despair, probably jump from the bridge and hit his head, co'z it looks like he's planning to do it again if not for Koko. He was obviously having serious emotional issues considering he tried to commit suicide soon after. Also, Linda did show up, but she came too late - according to her. You can learn all this from the episode, by the way, I haven't read the novel so no spoilers in this post. |

| Shoot first, think never. |
| A chapter that was many things, fights, memories, misunderstandings, sadness, excitement, collisions with bicycles. I got hurt Rinda, but Koko's confession was even more shocking. |
 |
| Man ! Seriously what is That Tada Banri problem he is too Cruel :\ Poor Linda =( |
  |
| T__________________T Poor Linda. Kouko T___T |
| The tea club strikes again. |
| This was a really eventful episode. -Banri finally confronts Koko about this whole "friend" stuff -Banri finally confronts Linda about his past -Banri tries to jump off the bridge to go back to his older self -Koko saves Banri from killing himself and confesses Best episode so far, 5/5 |

| The Tea Club really kick off XDDD I love these girls >.< And yeahhh Koko finally told Banri that she loves him... Now it's gonna to be interesting :3 |
| We're all mad here |
| FINALLY! I'm glad Banri finally spoke up for himself. I couldn't take his hanging out with her even after he was rejected and trying his best to keep up appearances . I've been complaining to a buddy on here for the past few weeks about his behavior and so I can finally let that rest. As it should be obvious, I don't like Kouko really but her actions are realistic and not really "anime-like". The confession at the end was so forced for her. She knows she'll have no one if he leaves and so has to cling on to something. You can say that she realized what she had with him only when he's about to leave but then again, she's the one who clearly states they're just friends before. Given the preview (and the super spoilerish OP) I'm not gonna like where this goes but I can at least enjoy the ride. Glad to have some Linda moments but I guess I'll have to wait to learn more about what happened. I swear Takemiya never lets my favorite girl win :( |
| -Nothing can stay unchanged. Even so, can you still keep on loving this place? -Be still my soul; when change and tears are past, all safe and blessed we shall meet at last. |
| I loved this episode, lots of emotions were thrown. |
| Quite the eventful ep, liking this more and more |
| Ugh, how could they spring it like that among all of the other past!Banri issues?! |
| I really wanted to smack Banri for that "well, I'm being nice to you and you don't want to date me so we're not friends anymore" crap. Annoying. |
| Not sure how I feel about the ending of this episode. I support Koko x Banri but that confession didn't really feel real. They have only spent 6 episodes together and just 2 episodes she pretty much rejected him. Well if anything this episode has only made me more curious about how the rest of the series will turn out. |
NeedmyWaifu said: I don't see how she is using him. She was still friends with him, even after Mitsuo rejected her, and seemed to genuinally like spending time with him. And I don't think you can expect someone to get over someone else that quickly, when the person has been in love with someone for years and years. I'm sorry, but the "friendzone" crap really annoys me. If anyone was using someone, it was Banri. Only helping her because he found her attractive and wanted a chance to date her. :\livingdeadkat said: I really wanted to smack Banri for that "well, I'm being nice to you and you don't want to date me so we're not friends anymore" crap. Annoying. Ah yes, it's clearly his fault for wanting to change the status quo. He should have stayed her b**** for the next 10 episodes. He was an idiot for wanting to be friends with her in the first place, knowing that she was planning on using him. His ability to finally move on after he realized she was still fawning over Mitsuo without regard for his own emotions redeems him. |
ThisIsNotMyName said: :/ sadly with the OP is pretty predictable U_U in toradora the op didn't even give that much as golden time >_< Even the name is related to the event that happen to him but why did they put that OP focusing on KoKoWoah, So after watching ToraDora (which for some reason, I still want to see more Taiga) I found Golden Time, a light novel/anime done by the some person, so I had some pretty high expectations going into this. In Toradora, I could kind of predict who was to end up with who, but Golden Time is completely different so far It can go either way, the MC either chooses the love he can't remember or a new love. All I know is that I can not even begin to predict who he is going to pick |

I'm still half hoping that it's just trolling us and the second cours has a different OP/ED with Banri x Linda. Not expecting it to happen, though. |

| linda x banri!! :( i cant forget when they met for the first time the second time!!! [1 episode around minute 23:42 in my player] that was really beautiful the background music and the rest of the poeple around them black and white!!! why they didnt put the three of them! but only koko U_U she is lovely but maaan i wanted one of those op where theres 2 girls and you cant predict whos gonna get the guy T-T |
| ☾ |
| Damn, I'm starting to like Linda more and more. |
| Tada is so emoo. And wow that was an early confession. |
| the background noise at the bar was again distracting. |
 |
| Oh god, tea club is just too damn win!! Confession already, hella early, she was pushing the friendzone so hard an ep ago. Oh god, i loved the drama in the toilet xD Knew it was Linda's fault. Just like a woman to be late |

| Drama packed episode and it was best so far. Oh, dat friendzone. As I see, both Tada and Kaga were wrong in their ways, though Banri ofcourse was wrong more. But I can't blame him. By the way, tea club is still funny as hell. |
| One does not simply walk into a room full of tea club girls. |
 "A Legend is but a tale of a beautiful lie." |
| God, that episode was freaking golden, well other than the last minute. I'm glad Banri finally showed us what he has between his legs, it's painful watching someone go through the friendzone. -_- I was cheering when he said can we stop. I feel like the confession was a fake one and she just wanted to keep Banri around. I hope Banri rejects her and focuses on clearing up things with Linda. (Looking at the preview, it doesn't seem so D:) Btw, the more I see of Linda the more I wish I didn't see it, because it just makes me want LindaXBanri even more. ;_; |
| Pretty funny how Mitsuo got rejected xD Hmmm, now that Linda knows Tada remembers her and Kouko says she loves him I wonder how things will turn out. |
 |
| This episode seemed so rushed to me, but it was good. I was so happy when Tada settled things with Koko. Then I thought there was hope for him and Linda after that dramatic scene. All of a sudden, Koko stirs up everything with an "I love you." What the hell was that? I'm excited for next week though. |

jimmy2027 said: Banri is being such an asshole. He first brough Kaga and Yana together to the party thingy knowing that they just broke up with each other. And he knew full well that Kaga has attitude issues with Yana. I mean, come on, he set up this whole thing, and dislike them quarreling over their relationship. Why does he even bother with things that concern him the least? And when shit happens, he threw her into the wolf den like trash bag. And when she got really drunk inside the den, he rejected her as friend just because she is drunk?? Why kind of friend is he? And what is more, he also caused quite a lot commotion while in school, with his former girlfriend. He seriously chose the wrong time to talk about lovers stuff. He is the one who caused all these commotions, yet he didn't even regret one bit. I am just glad that Kaga is the one who pursued him til the end. I mean, come on, shame on you man, having a girl to chase after you? Wait, what? I would dissect your post and answer piece by piece but I wanna sleep so I'll keep it short. Banri for the first time is thinking of himself, and you call him an asshole? He accepted her friendship in the first place(which he obviously shouldn't have) since he knew she would be lonely right after a rejection but he noticed that he can't take it. It wasn't that she was drunk, it was her obnoxious repeating of the word friend in every sentence she says. And about Linda, he had every right to confront her, he needed to get answers and I doubt sitting her down and saying what's up would work. Yes he did it too dramatically but what works works. He got her to let it all out, which will help later on. I do admit though that Banri's confession literally the night of her rejection was a bad move, and he kinda forced Koko into a confession right there. She didn't want to lose him and he didn't want to be just friends, so she just confessed on whim just to keep him. I doubt she actually loves him. |
| OH, so many good developments. loving this. |
| Glad I've watched this up to this point. No more pussy footing around, everything thrown on the table. |

| I can only describe my reaction to this episode in two words: Holy. Shit. This...just got interesting. At least a helluva lot more than it already was. |
Will I fall in love someday? I wonder? |
| Tada banri just had enough of the friendzone bs and just bursted out . But it helped out in getting Kouko to confess which honestly i did kinda expect , but just not this early so i'm hoping the confession was real and not just a pretext to keep him from leaving her side. But oh my gawdddd the episode was gold !!! The turn of events and all that. I'm having high hopes for this anime due to the fact its by the same author that did the LN Toradora which i very much enjoy. Let the drama , comedy, and romance rollllll :) |
