Some real nice graphical effects in this one! But well it seems they broke up and some weird atmosphere is build up a very gloomy one... I do wonder how it will develop further on!

So Saeki and Kasuga are officially over ... oh dearie. Pretty gloomy with Kasuga "walking" especially in the field of those flowers ... pretty creepy O_O I REALLY enjoyed the BGM there though ... very calm and relaxing (ish), something I'd listen to :P Ah so he finally realized Nakamura was disappointed in him ... the preview, he's gonna TRY to be a deviant?! Uh, okay ... O_O

Nakamura blocking the swimming lane and taking the coach's whistle made me lol. She's ridiculous. I love it.

I'm glad the relationship with Seaki is over... it had to end.

This episode is brought to you by the letter "M" as in MORE WALKING.

ps. I like the walking.

this main character is worthless...besides Makoto i think he is the MC that did the worst decisions ever in romance anime history

Kasuga x Nakamura? At first I thought Nakamura was a guy. (but then I noticed she was wearing a skirt)

4/5

The night brings counsel, so touching and disturbing narrative, which takes in a lot of his own anxieties apnea.
Takao takes its decisions, but he chose good reference points with which to choose these points? I think he miscalculated. Now we will see what will bring this choice in terms of social life.
A bit obvious choice Takao anyway.
Drawing unconvincing, but so adherent to reality to make the story even more enjoyable.
Only point that left me hesitant is the time gap during the dream journey, too rushed.

I really liked Nakamura's eyes when she got out of the pool, very attractive.
Guess it's finally over between Saeki and Kasuga.

I have mixed feelings about this episode. One the one hand, I'm annoyed that there was this time skip around what seemed to the ultimate breaking point; I really wanted to see how everything resolved. I wanted to see them in the police car together, feel the silence, and whatever weird shit these crazy kids are feeling.

But the rest of the episode was actually very very good. The directing stood out a lot in this one. I was also "Happy" to see that the long walk had more suggestive meanings with the flowers of evil popping up everywhere and him finding Nakamura,submissively sitting among the flowers, as if she had given up walking already...

As weak as kasuga is, I feel like he's done nothing wrong. So that ai-chan girl can fuck right off with her cuntiness.

Kasuga just needs to stop being such a helpless sap and less obsessed with nakamura. I get that there's wanting to offer support for a friend (more like abuser) but man. Stockholm syndrome is real.

Nakamura-san wins.

I still can't understand why Saeki-san would go so far for him..... it's to add overdramatic content? =/

Because it is written by a guy.

The story is a mess.

The most unsettling dream sequence I've seen in a while, uh.

So he choose Nakamura in the end... it's pretty much what I expected, she's been on Kasuga's mind for far too long now. Live your life Saeki, forget about these two!

Kasuga is beyond hopeless now. I think Nakamura is holding him in a somewhat Stockholm Syndrome

The atmosphere in this show past episode 7 has been extremely heavy. Really love the directing and just how much emotion is conveyed without any words and just music and subtle movements alone. This show's definitely not for everyone, but I have no regrets in getting this far so far.

Another long walking sequence, but this time we could see darker visuals and special effects corresponding with the mood.

A whole lotta nothing this episode, depressing nothing, but still nothing. But in all seriousness, I kind of get it...I just don't like nakamura. I bet something worse is going to happen to make me sympathize with her, but I just don't like her.
