A better anime studio should remake this in the future. |
Isayama Hajime should be awarded The Manga with The Highest Inconsistencies of Characters' Appearances. He keeps performing multiple plastic surgeries on those Shingeki No Kyojin characters in a SINGLE chapter. Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga. Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month. Patiently awaiting SNK TV/movie/OVA anime-sequel. The 2015 SNK live-action movie would probably suck. |

I don't really like how they changed some things from the manga , but it was minor stuff so i guess it's ok. Also , Haruto vs Kazama , Begin! Lol. Anyway , this episode wasn't half-bad. The rollercoaster should start here , expecting some nice stuff from the next episode. |

Love the ep, got some uber-sad moment and some heartwarming moments as well. But I don't get why he said "We live in the same city, we can meet whenever we want, but the distance between me and Eba got bigger" @.@ Didn't he just had a huge gap closer with her? ò.o if someone can explain I'd love it |

xKyoto said: i dont understand oO so eba knew kazama, before she got together with kirishima? They went to middle school together, and Yuzuki was very, very shy and was having trouble at home because her new step sister was a real witch that literally wanted her to die. Kazama supported her and basically got her to come out of her shell, but every time he confessed to her he was rejected. (Probably because she had a lingering crush on this guy she met over summer vacation back in the third grade who lives in a rural town in Hiroshima that her father came from...) When things at home got too bad to handle, she would stay out until really late at night with Kazama, even though they weren't dating. He helped her through some of the hardest times in her life, but she never returned his feelings, even though she had legitimate feelings for him. My take is that she wasn't comfortable with herself and didn't feel she could be anyone's girlfriend until she was. When it came time for high school, she decided, along with her family, that it would be better for her to not be in the same house with Rin, so they contacted an old friend of her father's in Hiroshima, at Yuzuki's request, and asked if she could live with them in order to go to high school there. They agreed and it happened to be Haruto's father that was her father's childhood friend. She then realized that she actually was in love with the boy she met at the summer festival back in 3rd grade and probably always had been. We've seen some of how that went in the flashbacks from earlier, including her confessing to him in a "declaration of war" style, since, at the time, Haruto had a huge crush on Nanami, and Yuzuki had been helping him get closer to Nanami up to that point. She couldn't go on helping Haruto woo Nanami without letting him know how she actually felt, though, so she confessed and told him that she would make him fall in love with her some day. If the final scene in this weeks episode doesn't let everyone know that Yuzuki is still madly in love with Haruto, I don't know what it takes to make it clear. She is still in love with him, but she feels it is her duty to support Kazama like he supported her back in middle school. The real question is, what will happen after Kazama dies, since it looks, at this point, like he is destined to die in less than a year... Forgetful00 said: Wonder how far this anime will end in the manga That is the big question... If you want a hint from the visuals in the OP and ED... The final picture of Yuzuki in the ED, when it isn't running over story footage like this episode, is from the chapter right after Yuzuki moves into Haruto's appartment, after she has fought with her father and run away from home. That is somewhere around the high 100s, but before the "big event" of episode 200... |

Since the necklace he gave her is featured so much in the OP and ED images, it has to get at least until the break-up with Asuka and when Yuzuki and Haruto are dating again. Otherwise it makes no sense to have the necklace there at all. As I suggested in my previous post, I think it will go until they are living together and we will have to hope for OVAs or maybe a 2nd season to finish the story. |

Awww, an Eba X Kazama flashback. Haruto how could deny a guy's dying wish, you could have just let him die and re-Kindle your relationship with Eba. |

this should have more impact if they start from hiroshima arc.. some people dont read the manga cant tell how close yuzuki and haruto are.. well a little flashback help though but not enough, i want more akari(manga only).. |

Evidently there is some confusion about whether that was a proposal or just them talking about getting married. In my opinion, when a guy says, "Then why don't we get married?" and the girl responds by breaking out in tears and saying that it is because "I'm just so happy. I've been thinking how nice that would be for a while now." it counts as a proposal. Sure, he hasn't asked for her father's blessing or anything, but they have his blessing to live together, so that seems like a mere formality at this point. But this is totally not what we should be talking about in this thread. For those of you who criticize Yuzuki for her choice to date Kazuma, think about this scenario: A person that you really did like a few years ago, but refused to date for personal reasons comes to you, not knowing that you are in a long distance relationship with another person, and tells you that they have less than a year to live and that they will be able to face the challenges of dealing with that so much better if you would date them. They tell you that they realize that they are being selfish, but they really love you and it would make them happier than anything else in the world if they could spend their final days on earth with the love of the person they cherish most. Do you think you could refuse them? Really? Remember that you have legitimate feelings for the person and, even though you didn't agree to date them in the past, they stayed with you through some of the darkest times in your life and helped you deal with some serious personal problems, even though you refused them every time they asked you to date them. Even if you really love the person you are in a long distance relationship with, you are still not entirely sure how they feel about you. After all, up to a few months before, they were really, really in love with someone else. Sure, they may love you now, but they'll get over you and you really need to help this person who is dying... Just think about it from that perspective... Of course, she was wrong about him getting over it... and she totally screwed up the way she went about it, but I don't blame Yuzuki for dating Kazama... |

Kirishima gonna fight back and get Eba back!!!! But doesn't Nanami like Haruto? Same with that girl ( Mina?) The one he went out to that school festival. But isn't the reason why Eba is Kazuma's boyfriend is so that he can have someone that cares for him. In the flashback, Kazuma was a playboy and no one ( I guess) liked him. Until he met Bba who changed because of him. Since he is terminally ill and will die in a year or sooner? Will Haruto find out Kazuma side of his story? |

Oh okay. That makes a lot more sense than just the typical "He's gonna die so I'm going to date him" excuse. At least she has a reason why she's supporting him so much. After all, he did the same for her. I'm not quite sure how Haruto decided on his decision of either "declaring war" or keeping it a secret until Kazama dies, because either choice has it's problems but the latter option seems more safe in my opinion, so I am not sure how his reasoning works. LOL But I'm glad it worked out pretty well since Kazama is a pretty chill guy. 4/5 |

I said at "this point" I kinda hate eba for what she did to haruto. sigh I don't want to put up a spoiler. but.. kazama could be saved if he does the surgery but success rate is not high the longer he waits it out the lower the success rate. and is not after 7-8 years bud. only like 1 year. obvious you weren't reading it carefully. yuzuki only went to hiroshima for like 1 year of high school. and they(kazama and yuzuki) were still talking to each other when yuzuki was still in hiroshima to see if she is alright. also yuzuki were hanging out with kazama late at night when she couldn't stand Rin. yuzuki saids that later on to haruto after kazama dies or some what. fuzzy memory. have you tried to be in haruto's shoe? that break up is like a dagger to your heart. and to the people thinks that eba likes kazama. eba never liked him. |

I'm not liking what they've done with this anime... intertwining past and future, without enough concentration on the past. I hope the future episode won't be ruined if it goes on this way... anyone who didn't read the manga won't understand a thing. And the artwork seems... like they rushed it. I don't hate it so far, but don't like it as much as i should since i like the manga. |

I don't get why some people think Eba loved Kazama. I admit she had feelings for him, but not romantic like the one's she has for Haruto, just those of a friend. In a few words, She saw Kazama only as friend that she was grateful, but not as boyfriend which is what he was hopping. She never kissed him, never said she liked him, not love bentos, not even smiles for Kazama (Only when Haruto told her to do it, and only because she was talking about Haruto with the poor bastard). Even in middle school, she didn't like him that much, and she already liked Haruto to the point that she decided to go to his town. (Chp 177 pg 9-10) Yuzuki loving Kazama is less likely than Haruto being gay for Kazama. He is always sucking up to him even after his dead, and he did give him LOVE bentos. |

xhx said: mrbakchoi888 said: xhx said: zensunn said: For those of you who criticize Yuzuki for her choice to date Kazuma, think about this scenario: A person that you really did like a few years ago, but refused to date for personal reasons comes to you, not knowing that you are in a long distance relationship with another person, and tells you that they have less than a year to live and that they will be able to face the challenges of dealing with that so much better if you would date them. They tell you that they realize that they are being selfish, but they really love you and it would make them happier than anything else in the world if they could spend their final days on earth with the love of the person they cherish most. Do you think you could refuse them? Really? Remember that you have legitimate feelings for the person and, even though you didn't agree to date them in the past, they stayed with you through some of the darkest times in your life and helped you deal with some serious personal problems, even though you refused them every time they asked you to date them. Even if you really love the person you are in a long distance relationship with, you are still not entirely sure how they feel about you. After all, up to a few months before, they were really, really in love with someone else. Sure, they may love you now, but they'll get over you and you really need to help this person who is dying...

I think it would have been more mercifull for Kazama to die with Yuzuki being just a grateful friend rather than a fake girlfriend. I mean, how painful it would be to die knowing that the person you hoped loved you, decided to be your girlfriend just because you were dying. |

Yeap, he wanted her to be his girlfriend, he tried unsuccessfully many times in the past until he pull out the death card. |
