I've noticed that this show get compare to School Days ALOT.
I don't see that though, what this felt more like is what Shuffle would've been like if the mood of the last 4-5 episode was dominant in the entire series.

I think its the violence and blood that brings the comparison about.
Peace.
I think they used the red blood in the fishing episode simply because black wasn't necessary. They decided to use black for the scene where Hoshino spills hers for graphic violence/blood's sake, and decided to keep that consistent this episode, so made the apple cut black too. Red and black blood in one ep would have been a bit weird.

Can't say I saw this one coming...
Well I did the twins to do that, but the Hoshino thing was TOTALLY unexpected. And she seems like such a nice girl too :P

Wow Hoshino just came flying out of left field and kicked us all in the face! And to think I felt so bad for her after Shuri face planted her into the wall running out of the classroom.
As random as that whole monologue was it felt too abrupt for it to really sink in. I mean, she was so sweet and innocent....but Sana's reaction was interesting as well, he showed a little bie of emotion at the beginning but then he just sat there and seemed to be genuinely listening to her story and was even moved by it. He's a better man than most to be able to listen to all that without bitch slapping her and then give her good advice instead of rubbing her face into the consequences of her actions.
I think Hoshino recognized that all the getting stabbed, and as she'll eventually find out, the two of them running away together was the result. She suffered enough already, and Sana picked up on that.
When she told him about how she felt running to save Shuri, he responded rather forcefully and quickly. I wonder if the scar or whatever hidden under his wristwatch has anything to do with the way he responded.
Back to Hoshino, she'd been lying to everyone this whole time. The part in the speech where she said she always imagined doing terrible things to teachers and classmates. That certainly never fit with the impression we got from her before, but I thought it was very convincing. I wonder if she'll really give up on the sweet side and become nasty all the time, she certainly did a good job on Shuri when she told her the truth. Or maybe not, she's been lying about her personality for so long, she probably can't break the habit.
I love when Mai Nakahara plays evil characters, especially the ones who start out so sweet sounding. Ryuugu Rena <3
I dont think she'll be nasty all the time, I think she'll just be more honest with herself. I do believe that sweetness is part of her nature but she also has a dark side, dont we all? Anyway really hope this isnt the last we see of the twins, though its a good chance it is since the series is almost over
Well looks like this is gonna rap up with a finale with Sana and Nanaka dealing with their individual pasts. Really hope things works out for everyone.

Oh men Yoshino really suprised me.. I even doubted myself about when she confessed because I thought that was not Yoshino. I rewatched the previous episode just to be sure that Yoshino was the injured girl. (bad memory, I know) What can I say, that was a really unexpected confession. But we all saw the twins escaping, eloping maybe?
The end of the episode was really touching, with Sana trying to catch up with the train.
It's kinda funny how the lesbians in anime all usually turn out to be the crazy ones.
But I have to say that it's pretty poor storywriting to blow the doors open on Hosino like this. There were no hints at all of her liking her. It seems very last minute that they threw that in there just so that it might stir something up that was missing. Just how I felt when I watched it.
Did no one cry when they saw Shuu and Sana part? It was really emotional, I agree. Last time I felt this way was watching the ending of F/S Night. Great way to tell us what Shuu said all those years ago too. The thing that made it so: music, Music MUSIC. They've played it a hundred times, but hell it works. I'm thinking that we'll spend one and a half episodes on Sana vs Nanaka, and have roughly 5mins~10mins of five years later type stuff.
Damn, that ending made me nearly cry.
Somehow itīs always a lot more touching when guys start crying instead of girls, because you get to see them being all tough the whole series and suddenly it overcomes them.
But i wonder what will happen to the twins.
Will we see them again? And where are they going to? If they remain in Japan it shouldnt be too hard for police to find them.
Also, the only person left out from having some problem is, damn, now i forgot her name, weird voice, big boobs girl.
You like guys a lot don't you! You are Pro-Makoto right? hehe The ending scene was really good with the farewell and all.Originally Posted by MFauli
Anyway the big boob girl's voice doesn't suit her. It seems so wrong... Its true that she's the only one without any sign of problems so far.. well.. we might be wrong..
Her name is Aoi, and I think her voice is awesome! I can understand why most people would probably disagree and call it annoying but I think it's so cute how she sounds like a crazy little girl all the time. I wish she would get at least some attention but at this point it looks like her only role in the story is going to be comic relief for all the drama the other characters have to deal with.
As to Shuu and Shuri's departure that scene was really touching, but I was too busy being shocked by Hoshino's confession to even notice the details. After rewatching just the second half of the episode I was really drawn into the train chase scene by the music and how touching the role reversal was. I feel like it was a little rushed though, but that's to be expected since the series is only 13 eps.
Really? only 13 episodes? well the twins are out of the way, Nanaka and Shuri will probably cover the remaining episodes. Unless Aoi-chan will become a psycho,have sex with Shuri and kills alls of her friends. I agree that sometimes Aoi can be cute. At times when she is surprised at something and jumbles her words. Its really funny
Nanaka and Sana are my favourites, so I'm expecting something good to happen between them. Plus, it's almost the end of the series, something good MUST happen o_O. Oyabin's thoughts are scary >.>
Not that nothing good happened between them before..more good would be nice. XD

<3 Tessa-chan! <3 Lucifus! ....chotto mate.
Laughs Sinisterly.... kukukuku Scary indeed.. will there be any break for this anime? Clannad episode 13 won't air until jan next year T_T
I don't know if there'll be a break later on, but not for this week.
Myself ; Yourself 12 - Red Memories
edit: Aftermath of Shuu leaving, followed by a little Sana/Nanaka development. Only a little. Just proves that Sana will break a promise with Shuu for Nanaka. They've set it up for climax next episode hopefully. Looks like no one has any confidence in either bloke's fishing skills.

Haha, listening to Aoi's like listening to an army of unicorns and bunnies on acid.
