| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Ah, Keichii making his voice getting heard even against some of the stubborn adults. We got a pretty tense episode this time around. Also interesting to see Shion's mother getting involved in this arc. One of the elders is also pretty hard to deal with. Still, I do like how Keichii and how friends not giving into pressure. |
 |
I didnt like this old women, very annoying, Keiichi did the right thing going against her, no they can save Satoko  she looks like a vulture, I got attacked by one a year ago, it had escaped the zoo, very scary moment. |

| I think this Satoko route is the best, even though the meeting was complicated but somehow they agreed with Keiichi. That's right, it look like Keiichi must banging oba-sama's head. Shion's mom really wanted to taste Keiichi No Ending credits, and hey.... Tataridamashi 5 eps, hhmm...  |

"we asked for peaceful and democratic discussion, but the government rejected it and using inexhaustible evil doing to pressure villagers' democratic movement" |
| Glad all that bowing isn't for nothing, he managed to make those boomers give the okay afterall. Very happy to see Rika's smile again at the end there <3 |
 |
| Keiichi's speeches are always great, and he convinced all of them, it was especially hard with the Sonozaki grandma but he managed to do it, what a great episode |
 |
| Watching Minagoroshi-hen again, though Technically this is "Tataridamashi-hen", is so refreshing to see. Next episode would be the real deal as far as the story goes. |
 |
| “I’m no outsider you old hag” go Keiichi go! Not a lot of action today, but a great episode. Love how everyone’s banding together in support of Satoko even the village leaders. Took a lot of hard work and negotiating, but the kids just might pull this off. Expecting a twist next episode though. First cour in the books, can’t wait for part 2! See y’all in winter |
 |
| Finally everyone in the village forgives satoko, glad that the grandma is a good person deep down. Keiichi is really strong to be able to argue like that. Sonozaki mom kinda hot ngl, wonder how that happened when the grandma looks like this... must be the father's genes  |
 |
| Tadaridamashi-hen, Episode 4 of 5. This is really turning out to be the low-key protest to save Satoko from her abusive uncle Teppei, even after ages of the dam war. Nice try to overwhelm the Child Welfare Services center, but prolonging this situation any further isn't gonna forebode Satoko's rescue mission well. Meanwhile, I think that this is the very first time (of this new adaptation) that we're seeing the house that holds the Watanagashi Festival meeting of the Hinamizawa elders, and immediately the various banners bring an ominous feeling. The way that Satoko's family was held with the lowest of low in regards, it's as simple as coordinating an apology, but due to how much involvement and harassings, this clearance of a situation is not so cut and clear. Reagrdless though, Keiichi at least has a spine to not let things be the status quo, and that at the very least is commendable to face both past and present truths and pin their thoughts together, FOR ONCE. Young people leading the way, who would've thought. With how Detective Ooishi just conveniently slipped into the roux, I'd fear to believe that he's the one controlled by Oyashiro-sama, but for now it's all speculation. But truth be told, all this foreboding and the back-and-forth arguments between young and old (especially the Sonozakis' old grandma Oryo who can't seem to give up past grudges, even for pleasantries) are troublesome enough for time-wasting opportunities, yet to displace such a character like Keiichi who's bringing change to the village, I kinda liked it though that everyone is NOT bowing into pressure. The Sonozakis' mom did a nice segway for sisters Mion and Shion, thinking it was out of love and Satoko being a rival, heh. So close, yet so far...BUT THEY DID IT. Time to give the final push of fate! |

| Child Welfare Services Center still useless as always. Keiichi's speech is great. He can convince the villagers to try to help Satoko especially those annoying adults. His confrontation with grumpy Sonozaki grandma is very intense. Gladfully, everything went well in the end. Destiny can be broken, wonder what will happen in the end. |
何それ？意味分かんない  |
I was hopping they'll use Alchemist's design for Oyro but overall not a bad episode |

 |
| After all the negotiations, bowing and passive-aggressive threats, Keiichi manages to persuade the village chiefs and the Sonozaki's boss, Oryo. Looks like the (utterly useless) CWS will now take action against Teppei and the destiny that Rika is subtlely hinting at for the past weeks might be broken in this arc (yeah...let's see what sike card will surprise us rika-chan). Also at the end, Mion/Shion's mother, Akane, is giving me the ara ara vibes. Looks like she's a good teaser and a dominant one as well. Almost made Keiichi blush so hard on her though the Sonozaki sisters just pretty much took a bait from their mother in regards of love interests (ha nice one). Next week will be the climax and the end of this arc. Minor spoilers but this has definitely deviated from the original version, which though it's kinda jarring, I'm kinda OK on where they took this story at this point (and idc what arc it's called because I'm new to this series). Now I need to watch how the 2006 version of Episode 12 went... |

| wow first time the story did not end after 4 episodes |
 |
Don't you think camera angels in anime can be a little weird?  |
|
If the camera is gonna be leering at the club members it might as well do it both ways! |
|
| I honestly love this arc for 1 reason |
|
| Definitely wondering how this is going to wrap up next week. Something has to go wrong, right...? After that we take a week off for New Year's and come back for the second half of the show in January. Anyone think a new or updated op/ed is possible? |
| That face Mion did when her mother got to close to Kei-chan. It is a same that we all know how badly this will end and the wait for how different the end will be is killing me. Tbh, compared to the others arcs, is painful, in a bad way, to watch because all of this ends up being completely pointless. While it greatly adds in the lore and the character, what is supposed to be its core feels like filler till the bad end and the reveal arrive. |

|
| I expect the next episode will have some big twist that will explain why doing everything according to the rules doesn't work this time around. lol at that scene with Takano and Rika. |

| I don't know if this is ever explained, but why is Mion the next in line to head the Sonozaki family and not her mother?

Akane had a fight with Oryo (because Oryo didn't like Akane's husband and didn't want them to get married), after some fighting Oryo disowned her or something so Mion became the next head |

I don't remember the source, sorry. i think it was a Japanese listing of the series (sorta like how the Gou name was leaked before episode 2) anyway there will be a Higu live stream on 12/25 https://youtu.be/5DppdrxC0E8 they'll probably announce new stuff there (i hope), so just wait 1 week and we'll know if the rumors are true or not. |

Thank you I'll bookmark that livestream. Also you are probably spot on about any sort of meta-world teasing. It will either be a super brief teaser clip at the end of part 1 to hook viewers, or it will be something near the very end of the show. Or, it could just be bait and nothing even happens with it. After the way ep 2 went, I am kind of surprised like Hanyuu never showed up again or was mentioned even so far. |

Do you know which chapter? EDIT: Found it! Ch 3. EDIT: Wow...that scene is so much better in the manga than the anime. ~~ I agree, I want this to be a 2 season anime, 2-cour each. |

| It's really good to revive those Minagoroshi moments I had from the anime back in the day. I really hope I enjoy it by the time I read the VN. My question is: how Ooishi is simply allowed in the town council? He even challenges Keiichi thinking out loud "let's see what he can do". Ooishi was quite antagonistic in Tatarigoroshi, and I still think the same thing happens in Tataridamashi. The whole protest in the next day could go wild and lead to a massacre. Nfu-fu-fu! That may not be the case. But Ooishi's presence is constantly telling that something's off. Teppei desecrated a little shrine. Being a Houjou, that would be reason enough for him to be onikakushi. Satoko broke Oyashiro-sama's statue arm when she was a child, and Rika took the blame. However, in Watadamashi, maybe Satoko didn't do anything to the statue. The head fell off, not the arm, so it could've already been broken/ruined. Of course that's a different kakera, but it's still relevant information. |
| efforts to save Satoko continue. See more grumpy people of all kinds. I just want them to succeed already, so we can go on to the next arc. lol most boring arc of Gou.. |

|
| Sonozaki’s leader is going to help Keiichi to save Satoko from her uncle. Keiichi went all out on her lol. |
 |
| Not much to say these past episodes since "Minagoroshi" has begun. Hopefully next episode we see something new instead of repeating the same things from the OG again. |
 |
| Oh damn, that was quite an intense episode! And a pretty satisfying one I must say. The balls of Keiichi to threaten to kill the head of the yakuza and not die in the attempt lol. Even the mother?! Keiichi, the Sonozaki magnet xD. I loved it when their mom teased Mion and Shion, they're both so cute! I wonder what's the deal with the detective... Wait, what Rika said at the end implies that they already reached a good ending in some timeline? But then why is she still looping? Hmmm... Even after all this, the most surprising thing is that this arc has one more episode haha. |

| So Granny, so much for opening the windows and letting the air in. Ehh I was pretty surprised to see Ooishi as part of the group. |
