    That was my favorite scene in this entire season, especially when Tomoya says "Nagisa is amazing" in his head with such emotion and amazement.

    He's just thinking back to when they had....you know.

    MC Akio and his rhyming was pretty hilarious.

    The scene where Nagisa reminds Tomoya of work actually had me confused for a bit. He's gone on for a few episodes about how he lost a position, and I've always assumed it was the job he's applying for, but the way he forgot about working in that scene, added with Nagisa's financial income made me think for a second he actually lost that one too, but was too ashamed to tell her.

    After that I thought the show was going to go in the direction of Nagisa becoming more strong and independent while Tomoya just gets overtaken, then depressed. But that's not happening now.

    The tree preservation was present in the main story too, not just the Special (if they ever talked about it there). I thought Tomoya was remnicent thoughts of Tomoyo there too, and thought "Stray thoughts and an affair with Tomoyo? This could get interesting...."

    In the end though, he was more concerned about the trees as part of the hill where he and Nagisa met.

    (But didn't Tomoyo said the tree protection was, well, permanent? Or was it just against the shopping centre scheme or something? I might be confusing this with another series.)

    If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~

    Lol well put it this way, Akio and Sanae should be in their late 30s-mid 40s and they dont look too bad.

    since I'm at work and on my cell atm ill make this quick. I'm not trying to be mean but if u guys go bk to the ep tomoyo talks about her family and when they stroll by the trees they kinda look like cherry trees I don't see none on this path the reason tomoya looked dumbfounded after nagisa told him he has work the next day was prob bc he was still happy and in the clouds knowing that he was married. the reason y he acted weird towards the news of the ne school building and the new rest. was bc it was where he and nagisa met and walked together and he didn't want to loose those things he still had thought that nothing changes or it didn't matter but for him, an ex delinquent, now growing 'up' ....well u get the idea. like I said I'm sry if I came out sounding mean I'm just short on time ill edit if I have the chance

    I was thinking he got one day off from work for getting married, and thus didn't remember it's again back to business the next day, being still all happy and giddy. It looked pretty natural.

    The whole tree business was somewhat vague in my opinion as well. Like k1sousuke, I also seem to recall Tomoyo wanted to save cherry trees, not some random forest. And since the matter was settled, it would be strange if they had now suddenly been harvested and a restaurant already built there. While the scene seemed strange, I guess k1sousuke's explanation could hit the mark.

    Well, even the school building talk scene seemed strange to me. The old building wasn't so old it would have been historically precious, so in my opinion it's utterly stupid to wish all the future generations of students should sit in the same moldy rooms just because he and Nagisa met there. Quite shallow thinking.

    Shallow, but important to him. Especially considering that he didn't really have many friends apart from Sunohara before he met Nagisa. And they're deeply in love, and you know how that skews most rational things anyway.

    The first thing I thought of when I saw Tomoya's vision of the trees was about Tomoyo protecting them. But certainly, it could just be that those trees were memories on his way to school, and slowly things are changing from what they used to be.


    edit: I just watched the episode again, and I can't stop laughing.

    You are here alone again
    In your sweet insanity
    All too calm, you hide yourself from reality
    Do you call it solitude? Do you call it liberty?

    I'm getting an awful feeling Nagisa will die while giving birth and Tomoya will be left alone with the baby. But perhaps such a drastic thing can't happen in a series like this, and it'll end well.

    I know what you are saying and I totally got that vibe as well. With the way things are going now....I think she will die giving birth. I really like this episode. Had enough emotion in it that reminded me of the previous season. So..next week will be the delivery huh?

  11. #131
    Same thing with Kraco. Due to her weak physical conditions, giving birth to her baby would probably kill her, unless some miracle happens. Hopefully, she doesn't die.

    That's pretty much how I feel, and it seems Nagisa is preparing for the worst. I certainly hope she pulls through. I wonder how Tomoya would take something like that.

  13. #133
    Something makes me think Nagisa will die. And Tomoya + Ushio will end up in the same situation, as Tomoya + his dad.

    What I was going to write.

    On the other hand, they prepared us so much, they insisted so much on it, that their hard times could be different.
    There are other possible mishaps related to giving birth, or being pregnant.

    All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral, or fattening. And then: Golf.

    Aye, since they've still got Tomoya's Dad's issues to wrap up. I'd think that because of how things will turn out, Tomoya will be able to forgive his dad (though perhaps it'll be too late, adding to the melancholy of this second season). I can see Tomoya+Ushio reflecting Tomoya+Dad's relationship, but it should end on a higher note. Tomoya has the support from his friends, while his dad's seemed reliant solely on alcohol, and perhaps on whoever called Tomoya about the cops.

    The most concrete simile this episode was the construction scene. There's a saying in Chinese: "If the old doesn't go, the new will never come." In much the same way, Nagisa's life will be forfeit to bring a new being into the world, just as the forest makes way for a hospital.

    Furthering that, alternate universe may represent the relationship between Nagisa & Ushio -> In a world where there is nothing, a woman gives a body to a new soul and, when the time is right, shows it to a new world.

    If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~

    i actually think the alt universe is tomoya and ushio and in some way shape or form they will meet under certain circumstances ie the magical orbs during the yukine arc and as to what will take place is still kinda iffy for me i rly cant tell which route they will take movie or the game's 2 alternate endings i wont say nemore cuz honestly i cant remember nemore

    You'd better keep quiet with anything you remember so as not to spoil anyone -including me, myself and I-, thanks

    I really like how this show tries to depict, even in a metaphoric way at times, the hardships you can meet in your life in the after highschool

    episode 16 is out

    http://a.scarywater.net/aquastar/

    Havent watched it yet, but, without talking about this in here, does anyone know if the series follows the same story as the movie?

  19. #139
    the movie is based mainly and solely on nagisa so the other girl's paths are never shown or developed basically so far the series has followed the movie to some extent omitting some parts.

    Episode 16 was painfully obvious it was going to happen, though I'd have liked it not to have happened. My prediction was on the money I guess.

    Still, I was rather annoyed the writers or whatever went through with it, because we all knew it was going to happen and they practically shoved it in your face.
