The Nanasaki x Junichi relationship is absolutely adorable. I'm already liking this arc a lot more than Ayatsuji and Rihoko's arcs.

Nanasaki >> Ayatsuji >>>>>>> Rihoko

Poor Nanasaki, though I bet she will be getting a nice new coat sometime next week :3

lol @ Miya trying to get Junichi into even more trouble, I thought it was quite nice when Nanasaki was singing the lullaby in the infirmary.

I've been waiting for Nanasaki's arc. Her singing to him was so cute. :D

Anyone notice the subbing was not finished? The subs for this ep ended when they were on the playground. I hope better subs are posted.

If you got UTW's release, the subs should've been fine. Mine were, in any case. For the whole episode.

Nice episode looks like relationship trouble developing due to Junichi going to cram school and camp, and Nanasaki in swim club activities.

I notice Junichi in this episode was calling Nanasaki by her surname, but if I remember correctly at the end of Nanasaki's arc in the first season he was saying her first name "Ai"

I know me too, but I don't think Keiko is interested in him. Last season Umehara tried to be friendly with Keiko by putting his arm around her, but she pushed it off. But I do hope things have change, and have a side romance with them this season :)

Is it just me, or does Nanasaki's arc kind of feel like Tomoyo's arc in Clannad?

Yeah I was expecting more especially with what is supposed to be one year after the scene in the Hot Springs. You would think they would be far closer than they are if they are supposed to have been dating for over a year.

I mean he still calls her by her Family Name for god's sake and she hasnt dropped the Senpai thing yet which frankly is annoying.

Dont get me wrong I like Ai quite a lot (4th out of all the girls) but this seems a bit meh and a case of bad writing perhaps.

I hope for a real improvement in the next episode.

Nishishi!! Miya still wins though =P

It wasnt that good, but rather cant say anything bad knowing how awful next heroine's arc will be.

More skinship than with any other girl so far, but also the protagonist seemed more empty headed than in most cases, but I guess that comes in the package. I still can't figure what's Ai's charm, other than giving him a frontal onsen boobie plaster last season. After his sister's special, it just seems like a character made to mimic her, just not be incesteous.

It's funny how Junichi do the same i'd do like dragging her into his bed while she wanted to wake him up xD

A rather sad turn of events for both of them.

Good episode, not particularly amazing or anything but it was a good "setup" episode for the 2nd half, while it hasn't been as good as Ayatsuji's arc it is better than Rihoko's both in character and story so i look forward to seeing how it will conclude.

Dammit, now poor Ai-chan is sad! T_T

My favorite girl in the series, but I can't help but feel this episode was a little slow. I think next week's will definitely make up for it though! Go get her Junichi.

Oh yes and as some before already mentioned, it also reminded me of Clannad Another World: Tomoyo Chapter a bit.

No military school would do something that stupid either.
I have no idea where the hell he has enrolled into, but someone needs to help him realize that most likely it's a sect - no other association would drive someone away on the 23rd of December for a training camp.

Ha! I had a feel of Clannad too!

Although, I jokingly refer to something in anime as 'Clannad syndrome' where you suspect the nice happy moments are just to make the depressing bit next hit even harder!

I had a feeling of Clannad syndrome towards the end of this ep, d-d-d-dunnnnnn!

Ai was one of my favorite arcs in Amagami SS. In Plus, I feel like this might be my least favorite one. Something was missing (no, not fan service >.>) but I just can't put my finger on it.

Also, Junichi's reason for leaving is complete writing BS. Study camp 2 days before Christmas that runs right through it? Pfft, my ass.

This couple has the best future together together. They have an adorable little girl together so I know everything will wind up alright.

Still though, what kind of school would kidnap you in the middle of the night before Christmas? WTF?

Uhhhhhhhhh... huh? I think you might be mistaken Nanasaki for Ayatsuji-san, because 10 years later Junichi has a little girl with Tsukasa plus she also cuts her hair short just like Nanasaki's

As for the episode:

Oh how I missed my Ai. Her voice is what makes her extra special. And to sing a lullaby with such a lovely voice, too. I think my heart started to melt for her when she started to feel lonely.

I am too fond of Ai Nanasaki but she does have her charm points. Such as in the beginning in the spoiler
made me think of the couple that cares for each other deeply and practices sports only to end up being at the beach like in the spoiler. Excellent flashback scenes: one being the kiss, two and three with the whole bath from last season. Very hot scenes to have put back.

I have to say that Junichi is one lucky man in the following,

Along with all the treatment of the spoiler
damn! I am sure that nap of his neck has gotten some heat and satisfaction. Must be if he went to sleep that fast.

About the fan service, it had its charms and interest in the list.
  • I am surprised not much is said of Ai’s bath part in the spoiler
    despite being short it was nice. Not revealing too much and just perfect.

  • The whole segment of swimsuits in the spoiler
    had rather interesting camera angles on close up parts like ass and chest. However I was more interested in Miya! OMG Miya! Joined the swimming club and screwed over her brother.


Finally since no one mentioned much of it, IKUO! In the following,

Was so cute! Ai’s brother is cool and nice to see. Junichi better be playing nice with him.

The part in the spoiler
rings around “Nazi SS officer Ayatsuji? Is that really you!???

BTW Ai in the end in the spoiler
looks nice saying I love you but the jacket does not feel right somehow less it shows her tomboy side.

End Art in the spoiler
I like it! The style is nice and it shows nicely Ayatsuji.

Image Stitches are done in the spoiler
Ai in swimsuit is nice!

Good episode, even if I don't like Ai. They're still so embarrassed by each other haha XD Yay for more Miya! :P I don't know how the heck sleeping on her belly turned into ... THAT ... but well, fanservice is fanservice, I suppose :P
Is that ... Tsukasa as the whip person at cram school? O_O Lol XD
I fully thought they'd hint at the aquarium for Kaoru's arc, but then again maybe Ai will use it too. Seems what she said's really getting to her now ... well, I have no idea how Junichi will afford that coat he was looking at but I have no doubt there'll be a happy ending next week :P
A year has passed for this arc ... shame they couldn't spend Christmas together especially since it was so important last time. Ah well, it'll be interesting to see what they do XD
