| This episode hurt so much. I have tears in my eyes. It was painful to see Akito break the already broken Kyo. Then Kyo's little glimmer of hope despite everything. He is probably one of my favorite characters of all time. My precious baby. |
| One of the best episodes, I got chills throughout the whole thing. The best part of this episode was when Kyo realized his feelings for Tohru and thought to himself that there's still hope. |
| I've been a Kyo and Tohru shipper since the beginning of time and this episode has hurt me so much. It was so difficult to watch, like my stomach was turning with every word Akito drilled into Kyo's trauma-exhausted mental state. I'm a little bit anxious every time a new episode is released because even though I've read the manga before, it was like a good ten years ago and I don't remember anything... So, it's like everything is new to me. Sure hope they're able to find their happy ending. Akito needs to be confined himself, and preferably, with no one ever coming to visit him. |
Toriru said: I have been reading the comments on here which are all very interesting and entertaining. So is everyone here a manga reader? I am trying to figure out why people are questioning Akito's gender. Nope, a lot of anime-onlys here in the forum. If you read all comments on every episode you'll see it. It's fun for me too, reading all comments and seeing how people react to new revelations. :D Yeah, it makes me angry too that people who already know some things spoil the fun for others. But the anime isn't helping, it doesn't make things ambiguous enough like the manga did. For example, it was so obvious that Yuki is the boy with the cap, from the 1st ending (when he walks past Tooru and then the cap falls to the ground) and from the way the shadow of his head was drawn (it showed that he has longer hair on 1 side of the head). About Akito, I think people started thinking it's a she after episode 5 when Akito came to Kureno like that, like he's Akito's lover. I guess they didn't think that Akito and Kureno are maybe gay or bisexual. XD And people are noticing how Akito acts around male Zodiacs, like lying on Shigure's lap at the end of season 1 and huging them and stuff. Although, there are still people who think Akito is a he, you can see it in the comments. So yeah, there are 2 factions. XD |
| Waiting for Gundam SEED Movie..... (ಥ‿ಥ) Waiting for Sailor Moon Cosmos..... o(≧▽≦)o |
| So Kyo knew Tohru's mom all this time. Wonder how they met and what their relationship was like. |
| This episode was really powerful when it came to the emotions fully packed and I felt sad that Kyo lost that argument he didn't have a good come back... I still wonder why everyone accept Akito's order like without any second thought does she has control over them or something? |
| There will never be a day that I stop shipping the fuck out of these two. |
 |
| I was about to cry, I finally stopped debating on Kyo and Yuki, honestly, I love them both. |

| holy shit i was definitely not ready for that episode like... AT ALL |
| with me much sad news here and there..this show is a ray of light for me |
 |
| I still don't know why the hell Akito has so much authority and free reign to do as he pleases and bully everyone. Why are all the Somas obeying him as if he is the second coming of christ? |
 |
| What an episode diving into Kyo's dark history. I liked how they showed the interaction with Tohru's Mom and Kyo when he was little. Honestly, one of the most powerful episodes for Kyo. Kyo and Tohru moments were so cute together! |

Only click if you want a spoilery image from the very first episode It will be revealed soon, however many people already guessed it from episode one. |

Byniavo said: I still don't know why the hell Akito has so much authority and free reign to do as he pleases and bully everyone. Why are all the Somas obeying him as if he is the second coming of christ? Reason 1: Akito is the head of the Souma family (clan). Reason 2: Akito is something else too, you will find out what in the next episode. |

| Absolute stunner of an episode, had me on the edge of my goddamn seat. Remember when I was rooting for Yuri over Kyo? That was funny. I was worried I missed something earlier about Kyo and Tohru's mother, but everyone else here seems just as surprised. Also- Akito is so evil, he leaves the tap on! |
 |
| Man, powerful episode. Kyo deserves to be happy. But this is the second season, already ep 9 and still a lot we don't know about Akito. Wonder why he is like that. |
| Another absolutely beautiful episode, this series just gets better and better. |
 |
| Kyo focused episode so I loved it. Probably my favorite in this season so far. |
| Those scenes where kyo thought of tohru's mom were really well produced and kyo finally admits his feelings. Akito is one twisted ass tho. |
 |
| "and if it made you smile, i'd do something over and over for you," so many tears were shed during this episode and this dialogue alone ;; it hurts that kyo doesn't think he deserves love or is allowed to be loved.. and because he doesn't want tohru to get hurt he lies about not loving her. really powerful of him to remember that hope will bloom and continue to in life's darkest moments + he wants to spend the limited time he believes he has left to be by tohru's side, and love her, his hope. so much emotional growth from him in yet another beautiful and powerful episode. |
| i really hate akito much more now. kyo should've punched him in the face! |
 |
| I wanna see baby Kyo and mama Kyoko interactions!!!!! *O* KyoXTohru tho... (ಥ﹏ಥ) But I also like YukiXTohru moments too :3 Despite not getting along, Yuki did good in protecting them ;A; he knows Kyo could never hate Tohru. |
| Kyo finally realized his feelings for Tohru!! 😭 I hate Akito!! I spoiled myself about her.. I understand her now but still I hate her!!!! She's soooo annoying! I really want Kyo to punch her face! |

| Kyo finally admit he love Tohru. I have a feeling this will be a happy ending. They would just have to get past some troubles along the way. Speaking of trouble. I would like to give praise to the voice talent for Akito, they're doing a good job - the character is absolutely disgusting, truly the main antagonist of this show. |
| Kyo knows he is in love...I hate Akito! |
 |
Ryuseishun said: Congratulations, Akito. You've officially made it to my top all-time most hated anime characters. This bitch needs to get put in a GER infinite death loop, ffs. omg same here... Seeing the way she treats the zodiac members made my blood boil. She is freaking crazy and she's a monster herself. |
| Nice to see Kyo actually admit his feelings to himself. |
 |
| The episode was hard to watch, I just hope that they don't forgive Akito after all that she did! |

 ꕤ but i’ll probably remember over and over again you were there and everyone else was there — the day we all searched for just one thing ꕤ |
| Akito is such a bully. I want to strangle her. |
| This made me really stressed. Damn you Akito!!!! When she started to sprout nonsense, I'm really gritting my teeth and I just want to push her or something. Anyway, Kyo realized that he's in love with Tohru. I hope he wouldn't lose hope or give up on Tohru. Geez, that Akito!!!!! |

| heavy Kyou episode and I was totally here for it. Akito is so manipulative, I hate it. But Kyou really does love Tooru, ugh, all the feels in this episode ;-; |
 |
| Tohru and Kyo are adorable. And fuck Akito. |
 |
| Akito is like a manchild closing his ears.. but yea kinda sucks that everyone has become complacent rather than wanting to get better or stronger or come up with solutions. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| akito's a FREAK i wanna punch him so bad. also kyo met her mom before ?? HELLOOO ???? aint that skipping steps ur supposed to take her on a date first THEN meet her mom for approval |
| What exactly was Akito trying to say to Kyo? I know she's deceiving/manipulating him, But why exactly? That convo was very tense tho |
