    School Days

    Episode 1 - AniYoshi (XviD)
    Episode 1 - AniYoshi (h264)

    Based on the fully animated game by 0verflow infamous for its violent scenes.

    A shy and unconfident teenager has become very accepting at only stealing glances at a cute girl as they ride the same trolley each morning on their way to their high school. At least until Saionji Sekai surprises Itou Makoto and chances to get a peek at a photo-snap of the beautiful Katsura on his cell-phone. After evilly teasing Mokoto about his forlorn crush, Sekai offers to support him in his romance. So after many Makoto-pep-talks and lots of scheming, the three become close friends. Close enough that Makoto braves asking Katsura out on date. And she agrees. Later that day, Makoto finds a quiet moment express his thanks for all support that Sekai has offered him, and makes clear his intent on finding away to reply her kindness. But he is totally unprepared and very surprised at the reward that Sekai has chosen. Sekai steals a long kiss from his lips, before breaking away to run for the trolly. Sekai turns and wishes Makoto well on his date.

    Wow, I was craving a series like this and poof here it is. I thought for a few moments that Sekai might have it in her to kiss him and then hold it together after leaving, but if she was like that i t wouldn't make for as much of a tragedy when the triangle starts to get out of hand.

The art and music are pretty good, and the voice acting is alrite as well......but i can't stand that guy who follows afro around. Hes so, well, black, for the lack of a better term (well thats not true, there is a better term, but i wont use it here)" Assassin

    There was an ONA, I think it came out a while ago though.
    First Ep of the ONA

    This version seems to be a bit more graphic/adult then the TV one. But I don't know where to find any other eps subbed of this.

    Do any other groups plan on subbing this? Not that I don't like AnimeYoshi...I just want to know what the other options are.

    Here's an alternative BoC.

    Pro: They tend to do very good work.
    Con: The last show they actually finished subbing was in Feburary of '06.

    Wow, that was terrible to watch >_>, the kissing/crying scene was great though, much better then in the anime itself, but other then that, it horrible somehow, must've been the different pacing.

    After i finished watching ep1 i thought the series was cute, ep2 made me diss the series though, im hoping ep3 is any good otherwise ill drop this as a brick.

    Its not really all that better. I was simply hoping it would end, similar to other romantic comedies that I have been watching recently just to kill time. But I like the last line of the episode though, hinting that Itou is not satisfied with his current relationship, and of course of a storm appraoching in the next episode.

    Peace.

    Better then the last ep I feel, since it had lots of Sekai in it. And lots of 'practice'.


    I'm still only ~80% confident Sekai is trying to get as much of Makoto as she can without actively trying to steal him. They've done a decent job of leaving open the possibility that she is actually conflicted about whether she wants him and she's just reacting as things happen.

    I am convinced however that Katsura and Makoto should just end this farce. He doesn't seem the the type to play Knight-in-Shining-Armor for a girl, even if that's what it would take to make her feel comfortable. And though she might force herself to change for him, in the end it would just end badly for them.

    I'd say this has been the best episode so far. Lots of Sekai is always good.

    Damn... itou is such as perverted kid. Just because you gf doesn't want to do it yet doesn't mean you could screw your close friend.

    Best episode in this series till today...
    Itou is an idiot who should dump Katsura and go after Sekai...
    I hate Katsura... and this ep rocked... until Katsura sent her damn email...
    Sekai seemed a bit reluctant to let Makoto kiss her (even though they have before) but not on him touching her? Heck...

    Honestly, is it so wrong for a high school girl to not want to be touched where people don't normally touch, much less have sex with a boyfriend she's hardly been with? Itou's not even some great boyfriend, smooth talker, or even a conversation starter. I don't see what she sees in him, much less consider doing something dramatic like that for a teenage girl.

    Of course not, but on that same token is it so wrong for a high school guy to want to touch a girl where he normally wouldn't get to touch her, or even have sex with her despite the fact that he barely knows her?

    Itou wants to have sex and do ecchi stuff. He only sought a relationship as a means to that end. He doesn't care about feelings or mood or stuff like that, and I don't think it's reasonable to say that he should care beyond as a means to an end. Katsura wants to be swept off her feet by a dashing Prince Charming and be gently embraced in a romantic environment after several prerequisites have been met. She doesn't seem to be interested in being touched and I don't think it's reasonable to say she ought to be interested.

    Neither is wrong for wanting what they want, but someone will have to compromise if either of them is going to get what they want from eachother. From what we've seen I suspect Itou is more motivated to take actions that might lead to sex then Katsura is motivated to take actions that might lead to romance, but at least they are both trying. What throws a wrench in the works is the fact that Itou's desire for sex doesn't hinge as much on Katsura specifically, and Sekai is shaping up to be a much more responsive partner. To be fully realistic, Katsura's desire for romance shouldn't necessarily hinge on Itou either, but the whole 'mysterious train watcher' element is part of the romance and thus he does fit more into her scenario then she does into his. There's also the fact that there's not really any other viable males in the story anyway.

    EDIT @Below: It's only 12 eps.

    Well anyway, I downloaded the anon releases and they're not that great. Watchable, but not great.

    I'll try not to spoil since most of you aren't up to ep 6 yet. There has been enormous developments in the next two episodes. Maybe a little too much if you ask me. I don't know how many episodes this series is slated for, but at this rate they're going to cover a lot of material...
