Another facesitting in that ep, amongst high doses of fanservice.
Weird ep, not very interresting, not that comical.
Well... let's see what next ep gives.
All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral, or fattening. And then: Golf.
Despite not being a serious ep, I found it kinda interesting, though probably not in the usual way. With this, Otoha takes her leave, though she still left Hirose with his sight. He can swim now as well. I don't remember him learning it anyway, so I guess it's the "if I believe it, I can" thing.
Lol I watched the [m.3.0.w] version first, pretty much the same content but much more entertaining. I'm not sure what the point of this was, but I guess it just means Otoha is gone and won't be coming back. The fanservice and hilariousness were fun on a Friday night though, especially since I'm losing interest in the 'real' plot.

Big episode of WTF.
yep I did the same thing the Meow episode was pretty hilarious especially being that I constantly couldn't believe with the video that something all that different was even going on.Originally Posted by Yukimura
I really hate the fact he spent episode 1 blind if with Otoha leaving he's not going back to you know being blind. This series confuses me and him gaining skills like swimming despite it being stated he directly couldn't swim earlier continues to make this show boggle my mind.
Given I've just watched a good 15 episodes of ZZ Gundam so nothing can really surprize me at this point.
This is too confusing. What in the world is going on. I hope there's some kind of point to this eventually
Ugh, its a trap!
I'm done with this. Don't care anymore.
Episode 9- Hayami fanservice

edit: Well, they did say Hirose's blindness was psychological, or at least implied it, at the beginning. I'd say his mother committing suicide, especially if it was in front of him, would've been enough shock. Rivalry has all but settled this ep, with Hotaru accepting that Hayami is the one in Hirose's heart. Hirose has always cared more for Hayami than any other character, but whether it was because of her situation wasn't always clear, which made the love rivalry fun t watch, despite feeling a little sad for Hotary. lol at Yui undoing her hair and all. The Elder also surprisingly didn't take the opportunity to drive Hayami away. Guess with the village accepting Hotaru now, he's rethought how everyone should act around Hayami. As he says, Karma.
edit2: And the moon really suits Hayami.

It was interesting to see Hirose's uncle in a serious setting as well
Yes, they did state that Hirose's blindness was psychological.Originally Posted by Buffalobiian

edit: Wow. The preview for next episode reminds me of that final breakdown episode of Evangelion. More to the episode itself, it seems the Elder was fine with not killing, or driving Hayami to the edge, but taking Hirose from, in his mind, Hotaru wasn't something he's letting happen easily. The plot twist was rather unexpected, but didn't blow me away. Hirose keeps saying it's got nothing to do with Hayami, but doesn't act that way, while Hayami returns to her old self. I wonder what "lies" meant in th preview. It's the first serious preview we've had, so I'll expect next ep to be pretty full on. Sure he's found out a lot of things, but I can't see any of those as lies....guess the wait is on for next week.

Very interresting episode.

I don't think I've hated any anime character as of late as much as that Elder. He really needs to get over it or just die. Even the other two Kohinata haters hesitated, and Yui was probably the most vengeful one in the village, so there should be no reason why any other person can't forgive her. Another thing is, no one noticed he was ever able to see. I guess that's anime for you. I think a happy ending is a definite, but how happy is yet to be revealed.
The elder is incredibly interrested in marrying Hotaru to Takuma. I guess Hirose familly is rich/powerful. But even then, it's incredible he would go as far as killing a teenager for his goals. I guess there's something we don't know explaining his behaviour.Originally Posted by Buffalobiian
The other problem is Hayami, why does she want to be beaten to death so badly? What happened that gave her that kind of suicidal behaviour, does she think she only exists in the hatred and rage others feel toward her?
Yes I guess the end will be a happy one, eventhough some arcs have proved to be quite dark, everyone of them finished on a very positive note. Yui is probably the strongest example. But who knows, no pantsu this ep, maybe we can have a big surprise?

Hayami is just selfloathing, made that way because of the despicable people of the village.
That Elder certainly is hatable. One hopes he gets his just reward.

edit: *Sob* Beautiful ending. I can't think of anything else. So the full story of Takuma's past is revealed. I have to say I didn't expect anything that happened this ep. Hirose going back to his childhood memories. His mental hurdle of accepting his mother's death crossed. Hayami - she really loved him, if it wasn't evident before. Beautiful emotional conveying from when she died up till the very end. With so many characters dying this week, having her back as a spirit really cheers me up. Final pairing was rather a shock. Takuma x Hamaji. Who would have guessed?
This show started up with high hopes twelve episodes ago, but lost many fans in the next three. Many who were expecting the dark plot didn't stick around, and the show proceeded with what was thought to be school life and fanservice. Then it hit home with character development, multiple plot twists, love confession and to quote BoC, a "Big episode of WTF", and finally ending gracefully, tying up all loose ends, and music that pulls at your heart. I recommend this series to those who are looking for a short, light series with a much darker underlying theme and a, what I thought was a sad-then-warming ending.
Having finished this, I've still got Hayami's voice in my head - Thank you for the world.

Really? What part of Takuma's past was revealed in this episode? It just seemed as though he was suffereing delusions the whole time, and Hayami dying was just so damn out of the blue.
Just wtf on this one, unless you want to explain it to me
