| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Well, I can't say this episode was better than the last one but it had some nice moments. But I'm still kinda disappointed about the Animation quality. but overall this OVA was really cute<3 I don't think it's out subbed yet, but I watched it raw on youtube here. |

| oh god! Sadame-sama arigatou!!! you're my hero!!! Finally got to see the second ep <3 and yup, the quality was still as bad as ever... ...and how could I actually forget about all the unsexiness of tight rope when it comes to...erm...most awaited scenes...such a letdown...>.> Still extremely cute though <3 |
| bruh |
| Yet again this was cute! Though I kinda preferred the first episode but this was good too. When it's subbed I'll re-watch. |
As it turns out, living was a punishment...  |
| Okay, just finished watching it, and I'm so disappointed! It wasn't bad, it was OK, but it could've been so much better! The last OVA held so much promise, and I felt like it all built up to nothing. First of all - what do you mean there was no sex scene? I mean, nothing explicit, of course, but at least hints of it like they do with every other yaoi OVA out there. With how it was presented in this, I almost couldn't be sure if they'd really taken that step or if they were joking about it. I honestly have no idea how this is rated R for mild nudity when it's much less explicit than, say, Junjou Romantica, which is PG-13. Nao and Ryuu's interactions were as cute as always, but the whole OVA felt a bit redundant, if you ask me. Not entirely happy with the animation and sound effects, either. Maybe I'm being a bit picky, but honestly, it's not everyday that we get animated yaoi, and from what the first OVA presented, I thought the second one would at least be just as good. |

| this was sooo not rated R XD what a disappointment at how little smexying there was..... *sigh* but still, I find their accent so adorable and Nao's voice so silky smooth... it was comedic, but man, where the hot stuff at... *runs off to listen to the drama CD* XD |

| Totally agree with what you guys said. I really liked the manga, and from the first ova, it gave me high expectations for the second. Second ova was disappointing, I expected them to have ~scenes~ in the ova. If I'm rating the whole series, I'm giving it an 8, maybe because of the animation. I really liked the seiyuus here too. But since it's adapted from the manga and even if it's sweet and cute, I'm giving it a 7 because the second ova was just :/ Nevertheless it still gave me some laughs. :D |
| One can clearly see how poor was the animation when Ryu kicked Nishi. It made me cringed watching that scene. I understand that fluid animation requires extra expense but they should at least animate it decently or make it feel that the atmosphere for some scenes comparable to the manga. Nao facial design was a disappointment to me at the beginning. It feels like they didn't much do justice to the manga. And yet, we rarely got to see yaoi got animated. |
 This part of the two set was actually worth the month long wait since seeing the first one. The action and suspense was pretty good as was all the scenes thereafter. In terms of bl action it was pretty touching how their relationship evolved over the course of the two episodes and in episode two Nao finally wanting to be with Ryu and then giving him what he wanted was nice as well as the blushing and what not from them both. All that detail in the kiss scene, then the hilarious scene when they were on top of each other, and the ending moment, were all great. Nao was quite memorable as well as Ryu. I enjoyed it. 9 / 10. |

| Well that was disappointing :/ At least Ryu & Nao are cute so it wasn't a total flop. |
 |
| No offense but- I think that it's hilarious that anyone can rate this higher than a 5/10... (and it's really not even worth that 5-) Also, why is this an OVA (rated R+ even) when nothing happens- isn't the point of an OVA that they don't have to cut the R-rate scenes? Like someone else said, even JJR has more nudity than this and that's rated PG-13. If you're just going to half-ass it like this, just don't do it. The cake was a lie- again- |
| Like in ep.1, it involves fight against the enemy group, but because it was caused by his son, they got disbanded?! Well, there's BL moment, but no explicit scenes. At least childhood guy allowed his love to get a move on himself, it seems (just him saying, though) |
I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |
| Not great.. but entertaining nonetheless. Cute couple. |
  |
| So, this was my first time watching an actual Yaoi (Oofuri doesn't count lolol) and it was okay. It felt a bit odd since I went from a hetero romance (Servant x Service) to this right away, but it wasn't the worst show ever. Romance was kind of redundant and mundane. Childhood friends -> Don't leave me! -> No touch your girlfriend -> I like you -> French kissing -> Sex? No? -> I want to be with you -> Sex? Okay I was a bit disappointed that the most "heated" scene was near the beginning and the end "sex" scene was just kind of lame. (I read a bit of the manga ending and IDK why they toned it down here) Animation was lazy in this episode. Even if it didn't matter much to me, it was sort of... distracting to see the animators getting lazy especially at the fight scenes when the character designs were decent. Plot was pretty typical. Bad guy gets hostage, main character comes back and saves the day. Easily forgettable along with the characters. But, Tatsun did a good job voicing Ryo. Will give it a generous 6/10 |

| Where are the sex scenes? I gave a 7 for that, they just animated the kiss parts, I expected to watch a little of it as in other ovas but even so it was good because it's a good manga. |
   |
| And with that my 1st shounen-ai comes to a close. It was a mostly fun watch although if I were more familiar with the genre this might have been forgettable. Ryu cracked me up and Nao was pretty chill. Overall a likable combo. Still a bit weary about breaking out of my shell to experiment with this genre but Tight-Rope was at least decent for what it was aiming at considering the time constraints. 6/10 |
 |
| Ryu's yukata pattern bugged the heck out of me. |
 |
| Not enough Shinnosuke Tachibana moans Guess I'll just listen to the drama CD 6/10 |
 Nico- said: Conversations with people pinging/quoting me to argue about some old post I wrote years ago will not be entertained@Comic_Sans oh no y arnt ppl dieing i need more ppl dieing rly gud plot avansement jus liek tokyo ghoul if erbudy dies amirite |
| Oh, well, I think that this is cute too. I haven't read the manga so I'm not sure how will I describe this entirely. The animation isn't quite bad and the voice actors did a nice job as well. |

| Why no seggs? So standard in every aspect. The characters are kinda cool and the seiyuu are good. Only for yakuza and/or comedy suckers. |
 watching, waiting, commiserating |
