----------------------------------------
The episode was okay. We got focus on the school cultural festival preparations.
Seems everyone is in the mood to make it look good.

Miharu got a bit more focus this episode and I think this show is slowly developing her character more. I can feel a romance-like vibe coming from her :o

Almost time for School festival.

Class rep girl was not sure about her feeling. She asked the short hair girl if she has anyone she likes...

lol @ the combini guy saying "spring has come" (a.k.a "love", about the main couple). She doesn't know the meaning class rep girl asked, so he asked that guy about it.

Having a nice moment between the two. She talked about liking the stories since young and wanting to write her own someday. When he mentioned about the story book in target, she said she had one. She takes pills after he left... is that the reason she doesn't remember about that past?

Preparation and visiting the shows at night, especially a class w. display of picture books. The reason for swimming is that picture book. He finally said it, but she's...

Takes a break from main two and centers around the student rep. couple mainly next.

Haruki finally had the courage to talk to Miharu about the "The Merman Prince" picture book.

So the next episode will focus on the Student Council President.

Everyone is preparing for the school festival. Mami doesn't understand about her feelings. Miharu and Haruki got more focus for their relationship. He got cock-blocked by his phone. She broke down at the end when he reminded her about the book.

From Mashiki's reaction and that last scene most likely she has some heart-related disease, and Haruki tick it off at the end there.

That STUPID BOOK was finally talked about maybe I can drop this show now

Maybe it just because I'm American but... taking to little pills ain't devisating?
Were they trying to make me feel sorry for her?

side note- not just vitamins and shit (-_-)

These are clear death flags thrown around here...

I'm worried about Mashiki.

Also Honda being great again, Mami definitely needs someone who just takes her hand and goes off. :)

A shame about the cliffhanger i don't want to wait for a response.
It's nice to see progress however which is a good thing still it seems a lot might happen.
The anime so far has been pretty good despite it's somewhat slow start i am looking forward to next week.

Please no bad ending. I had enough of Bad ending after SukaSuka. As much as I want to see the other couples. I don't like how they all of sudden shift to the other couples after that ending.

This episode focused on Mashiki and our MC.
Seems like the class rep is still confused about Honda.

Is Mihashi sick or something? They showed her taking pills and it seemed kinda important.

Just when it got to the best part of the anime, it ended as cliffhanger with SC prez's story next. Well I'll damned >:(

I'm having bad vibes from that ending. Maybe she has amnesia? Terminal illness? Or was the girl in the flashback her twin sister (who isn't around anymore)? It sounds plausible considering the name wasn't written fully on the back of that book.

I also am seeing Red Flags with Miharu when she took those pills, I'm really hoping its a red herring. If it's not this show will go in a completely different direction to what i thought it would be.

I wonder was Haruki inspired to take up swimming by the story that Miharu read him when they were kids. That was one hell of a nightmare for Haruki though lol. September is finally here eh. Time for exams. Well Towa has cause to be happy as he managed to confess to Mami after all. Lol Mami's reaction at being surprised by Miharu though. Hmm it seems that Mami is still not yet secure about her relationship with Towa. Its nice that Mami while glad of Miharu's advice also displayed concern for her friend as well. Im glad that things between Mami and Towa worked out but i think it will take some time before they can be comfortable though. Hmm Miharu asking Haruki that type of question was unexpected. Though at this point i think Miharu only see's Haruki as a friend at the moment so a confession there will end up straining their relationship instead. It seems both are stuck in their respective relationships lol. The cultural festival though should be an interesting thing to see though. Hmm so while Haruki's class is doing a haunted house Miharu's one is doing a play using Snow white eh.

Its cute seeing the two talk about their interests though. Looks like these two are staring to get closer. Haruki is hoping to provoke the memories from back then eh. I wonder what her illness is though since she's taking great care to hide it. The cultural festival though will be a good opportunity to help build stronger bonds between them i think. Its nice to see everyone work so hard for the cultural festival though. Towa's really trying hard to match Haruki and Miharu together which is nice to see. Still its nice to see Towa being so proactive in his attempts to win Mami over though. A nighttime stroll through the school to see how the other classes are doing eh. But its nice to see each of the classes work so hard though. Though they may be assigned to different classes as they go through school their memories will of course remain. Seeing all these old picture books must bring back a lot of good memories for Miharu though. So that book really was what inspired Haruki to take up swimming eh. Hmm though Haruki was finally able to tell Miharu the words that he wanted to convey for so long it seems there is a deeper problem here after all. Still an interesting episode where both Haruki and Towa are trying to take the next steps for the girls that they like.

It's so painful watching how beta Mishima is -_- like what the fuck is he trying to achieve by trying to act cool and disinterested? his constant "eh? eh?" makes me want to slap him. Now I really hope a stranger dude from another school comes and take Mashiki away during the festival... actually Mashiki dying might not be so bad since we'll be saved of the bullshit childhood love. I'd rather have Mashiki be with the grim reaper than that pansy Mishima.

Everyone's jumping into the conclusion of death flag????
This is a cliche that I see many times before
A: She has memory-related disease, and have to take those drugs
B: She has non-memory-related disease, but the drug side effect suppresses her memory (like Beta blocker)
She sad because even though the memory is very precious to our MC, she can't remember it at all.

I was thinking the same thing, she was really intent on making good memories at the school festival. of course that could be because she's dying and wants others to remember. but I took it more as she wants to be able to remember later because of her illness.

Also, she didn't remember giving him the book in kindergarten and if he can remember it you'd think she would too. She's too young for early onset alzheimer's, but it could be another memory related illness.

plus if go through the opening its damm good
we'll get to see how 12 characters from 6 couples
and i dont think the writers would kill mashiki and leave haruki alone between the other couples
and most of the original series dont have bad endings

i just remembered the episode 12 feels train of Tsuki ga kirei i thought it mind end up like 5 sec per second but it ended well

Dat cliffhanger Lel

And preview looks like different couple dammit

People are saying death flag but I don't think this anime has the guts to kill her (it doesn't have that aura)

Just theory but Mashiki probably has a twin sister, and it was the one Mishima likes coz Mashiki is always sickly

actually she got a trauma back then cause her twin sister got hit by a car & died later she got her health issue, but its not that she doesn't remember but her sisters death was after that that's why she doesn't want to talk about it, i did some reading about her past

& no she is not gonna die
