| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Quite the emotional one with Ryuu x Chizuru but also with Chizuru and her friends Sawako/Ayane. Liked how Ryuu grabbed Chizuru's arm=>  but Chizuru clearly blew up in this episode. Not only that but the most emotional was probably this part=> |

| The voice part for Chizuru did a great job a crying! It didn't sound fake to me. Made me really feel for her :) Just as Yano-chin said though, I really can't tell Chizuru's true emotions. She was pissed off at him, but gave him his birthday present. huh O.o? Poor Ryu, it's just getting harder and harder for him to tell that he likes her :s |
[right] |
| I laughed at Sawako holding it in to the point of looking scary, and Ayane and Sawako's reaction when Chizu threw a temper tantrum. Haha. Kazehaya is right, as long as they're there for Chizu, even if there are no words, everything will be fine. And Ryuu. And bread. Lots of it. xD I think I.G. stepped up the animation this time around (after a particularly disastrous episode 19, art-wise). I wish they didn't have to drag this on, though. I love Ryuu/Chizu (and will be impatiently waiting for my most favorite scene ever in the next ep), but I think I.G. could've easily just gotten rid of the flashbacks and quicken the pacing a bit. porkypink said: She was pissed off at him, but gave him his birthday present. huh O.o? Well, she threw the present to his face. XD Man, Ryuu's insensitive remark (and that was before she even got the chance to give him his present...lol, really, Ryuu....) |
 |
| I hate how they're constantly teasing the idea of pursuing romantic relationships, but such is a shoujo anime... At this rate, I really hope that there's a 2nd season, after all, there's been some good conflict going on in the manga. |
| meh...the only thing i like about this show is the various faces the characters make. right now i am just committed and gotta see it through. |

| It sure seems that there will be a second season. Good episode, but one thing that just itches a bit is the "humor" from the exaggeration of reactions. It crapped it up a bit. |
| eh it was alright, i want something to happen between kazaheya and sawako :S |
 |
| I LOVE THIS SHOW! Chizuru is so adorable! And Sawako and Yano! I love them so much! To me, this show ranks in the all-time greats in adorableness, right behind Nodame Cantabile and Lucky Star. |
| Romance comedy anime - Japan's gift to America |
| Ryuu is really insensitive Perhaps it was a good thing he made Chizu cry, so she can get over it, but still.. |
| I agree with you about Sawako going a bit overboard with the crying in this episode. ^_^;; I thought it was a bit much in the last episode too, but it is good character development. I'm also still waiting for Ryuu to confess... I waited this whole episode to see if he would,and the series is ending soon since there's only 24 episodes, I believe. DX |
| I like Chizu and Ryuu a lot, but... If the Chizu arc hasn't end... then when will there be time for Sawako and Kazehaya? D: |
| Very well done! I'm glad they're going to leave the rest of this arc for another episode. Makes the chance of a second season much higher! |
p r o f i l e đź‘€ |
| Lovely episode, the Chizuru and Ryuu happenings worked really well, and it was showen perfectly how close and comfortable Sawako is with them now. Gahh, can't believe it's a WHOLE WEEK 'till the next episode. |
| Great episode. It's kinda cool noticing how much more social Sawako has become since before. |

Errr...I think you understand more of Ryuu's personality and the overall situation. He's calm because that's how he is. He's quiet and is probably just as perceptive as Yano. Also, he's obviously not the kind of guy to just up and say something like that when Chizu's going through a rough time ("Are you worried about me? Is that why you didn't tell me Tooru's coming home?"), especially since the situation involves another person who happens to be his brother. IMO, he bids for his time, probably waiting for when Chizu's already over Tooru. The "slap in the face" Chizu needs is exactly what she's gotten from Ryuu this time: "Yeah, glad that's over and done with, I can finally relax, you didn't stand a chance anyway, poor you." Adding, "Good for me, because I'm in love with you," is just too inconsiderate and insensitive, even for Ryuu. Addendum: And when one thinks about it, it's no good anyway. The most it'd do is either piss Chizu off or scare her away, both of which Ryuu wouldn't want. (Well, at least, the latter.) |

| Damn, I've been waiting for Ryuu to confess for a good while now. I've just felt like the classic situation to spring that information has surfaced many time already. Maybe I'll be treated with what I want next episode. |
| Just 4 more episodes :'(. I hope they're gonna make a 2nd season! |
| Pretty good episode. Kaze always has some sort of Jedi master advice. I'm so glad that this wasn't an overly sad/serious episode. It feels like a conclusion will happen next week. Ryuu, do something! I loved the Chizu pouting scene. It's a such a reliever from the last ep. I thought Ryuu was the jerk at first, but he's just being bluntly honest. It's just that he's pretty horrible at showing affection. |

ferrywoman said: Yeah I agree with you but Ryuu must find a way to declare he loves her and so far it obvious Chizuru's words hurt him a lot but he did like the gift just does not show it off like someone who is very expressive.....but I can see he really likes it. Ryuu is hard for me to figure other than what you mentioned about him.....that I understand about him no problem.....just don't take it into account.francismeunier said: That's the thing I don't get about Ryuu is why is he so calm when he is supposed to be expressive towards Chizuru....she obviously needs a slap in the face (not a real one just form of expressing) of Ryuu really loving her and declaring it.

| I really love Ryuu and Chizu, but it took more than I thought I cannot imangen how the anime will end Spiritsoul said: Just 4 more episodes :'(. I hope they're gonna make a 2nd season! I really hope that too... |
 |
| <3 Ryuu x Chizu! Ryuu is definitely one of my favorite characters so far...even though he doesn't appear to be very expressive. I can totally sense the sort of sad longing and patience with which he looks at Chizu. Kills me everytime. =( |
| Very well done! I'm glad they're going to leave the rest of this arc for another episode. Makes the chance of a second season much higher! |
 |
| A really good Chizu and Ryuu episode. Kazehaya's advice is <33 |
| Ryuu: " If this is how it is, I can finally relax. Because then you can give up on my brother." aaah I hoped that he would confess in this scene >.< Also liked the scene when Ryuu grapped Chizu-chan :D Chizu's voice actress is really good. How she cryed sounded so real. Spiritsoul said: Just 4 more episodes :'(. I hope they're gonna make a 2nd season! I really hope that too. |

I don't know why but in this episode I can safely say now that understand it with the emotional impact.....made me tear up T_T than before when it did not. Some episodes it got to me rather quickly but this one with the understanding it was necessary...so when Chizuru burst out.....I started to T_T and yes it was almost as real as some movies try to get when it came to Chizuru's crying. Her emotions finally reached me fair and square is what I can say. Also, I would be very happy too like Chizuru here=> if it came to Sawako in this matter. |
In spoiler my anime list for now. |
| Ryuu is so blunt but calm, lol. Anyways, this is starting to turn into another shoujo anime for me. I'm not liking it as much as I liked the first few episodes :< |
 Thanks, person who gave me this on another site a long time ago, lol. |
| Emotions-filled episode, and a great one at that. |
 In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same. |
| I like how they handle the situation in this episode in KnT way of doing thing. LOL @ Ryuu, instead of taking the chance to confront her and confessing his love. He went ahead and made her angry so that she could take it out on him and lost the chance he shouldn't lost. You are way too good Ryuu. You are happy enough just by seeing her smiling? You had my approved. P.S. it seems like due to the cost of the sparkle and bubble version3 in this episode making this episode has the most bad art in the series so far. |

| Ryuu is such an awesome character. |
 |
| C'mon Ryuu, just confess already! It'd be great to see the reaction from Chizu as she hasn't got a clue about it. Hope it happens in the next episode... |
| Wow is it me or is the animation getting worse? Great episode I give it that 5/5 |
 |
| LMFAO @ EVERYONE COMPLAINING ABOUT THE ART. i think this is just because of the fact that we've been seeing a lot of chizu lately... /chinstroke. I DO AGREE ABOUT THE ~SHOUJO BUBBLES~ THOUGH, they were a little over the top. ANYWAY. i feel so bad for ryuu even though he acted like an idiot in this episode. it feels like he never got the chance to say the things that he wanted to say to chizu. :[ /cheers him on ps, oooh, got the 3rd page. AWW YEAH. 8) |
 |
| Sawakos expressions were just hilarious. I'm not sure if I was supposed to but I totally cracked at the part where both Sawako and Yoshida were crying :D A great episode once again. |
| Same like Bocca ... When Chizuku began to cry ... I have been in tears. |

Here you go:   Who is that orange hair girl?  Errrr... Peter Griffin from Family Guy? And there is still a lot them with Sawako too but some of them are pretty funny to see. |

"A Legend is but a tale of a beautiful lie." |
| Everybody says that how Ryu is unconsiderte and he's at fault, but nobody notices who was almost the most hurt in this conflict. Yeah, he should have confessed already, but knowing how Chizu was in love with his brother... I liked the episode very much, and I can't wait for some development for Kazehaya and Sawako... |
 |
| Hmmm. I love this show, indeed, however, this arc with Chizu and Ryuu's brother is just...bleh. To me, it just seems annoying that she would even think their relationship would work. I just wanna jump in the screen, tell her to get over it and go for Ryuu. That pairing is a lot more favorable for me. :P But a good episode nonetheless, just not high on my enjoyment factor.

| seems like another chizu x ryuu episode next. i want more sawako x kazehaya. oh well. hope theres gonna be a second season! |
| Did they change producers or something? The humor seems forced and not nearly as good anymore. And as much as I like Chizuru and Ryuu I'm missing All the SawaxKaze I initially adored about this anime. Where did it all go? Will there be a season two? They can't just conclude it without us ever seeing them get together; not after everything that happened with Kurumi... |
 |
| I just didn't care for this episode too much. It felt like it didn't go anywhere until the end, and even then, it wasn't much of anything worth a full episode's time. |
| lmao gr8 ep. Who was it Ryuu called to share the bread with in the end? |
