I really liked the animation/background styling during the part where Yamada runs from Nomiya, it's seems quite different from what I've seen so far watching Honey & Clover.

I was actually a bit surprised, when they said Mayama didn't go with Rika to Spain.
Also, can't believe Takemoto was going to eat bread crusts for en entire month xD

lol, morita again success to make me laugh.
right now, Im very curious about his work, cant wait to see more of that.
I also though that mayama would go with rika, like let her go along for a few weeks, then he follows. guess that is still possible (?)
and it looks like yamada is making more progess of getting over mayama, and start to like nomiya *good good, just like planned*

I noticed a similar effect in the first season. I think it was when Takemoto was cycling through a city. This anime has awesome animation.

Everytime Yamada cries, it makes me feel like crying too ;__;
Yamada is still holding on to Mayama even though she knows she's starting to like Nomiya :/

Lol, I really wonder what Morita does for his job.

I don't get why Yamada says that if she likes Nomiya her feelings for Mayama are not going to be true, but I'm glad she finally realizes that she is falling for him :D

Nomiya is so cool! Coming back at the right time and all that!! ^_^
(I want somebody like that too ;A;!)

This series is getting better and better! :D

Yay for Yamada and Nomiya!!! Just as I though, her feelings to Mayama are a maniac obsession she is filling herself with, she used to loving Mayama, it's like a bad habit. And now it seems she's getting really attached to Nomiya, more unconsciously which is even more great! Please let the things move that direction, I'm really loving it!

Also, I feel pity for Morita for having to work that hard for some greater good in the future (I really wonder what his goal is, for which he does all his savings).

And, Miwako san is really cool, I love her ^_^ Great supporting character!

She is :D I like her too.

I love how Takemoto is actually able to stand up to Morita now XD And I hate how all Yamada does is cry over Mayama. But she's starting to like Nomiya, which is GOOD.

Another brilliant episode.
Miwako-san is indeed a great character, I love what she did for Yamada. I also really start to like Nomiya, I think it would be great if Yamada finally lets go of Mayama and gives him a chance.
I'm really worried about Morita though... that job of his doesn't sound safe at all.

Just like everyone else I to am curious about Morita's job is.

As for Nomiya I just can't seem to like him. Something about him just bugs me. Tho I don't think Yamada should still try for Mayama.

The thing I really want to know is if Yuuta ends up with Hagu. I feel that Yuuta has it worse then Yamada. Yamada has someone who wants to be there for her wile Yuuta has..... Morita???? The dude who Hagu was interested in by what I understand. Not to mention Yamada has a good job going for her. All in all Yuuta is in the worst position of all of them.

On a side note a really good twist and I think a fairly good ending would be Yamada ending up with Yuuta lol. But that is probably just because I like those 2 more then the rest of the characters and they probably know the pain each other is going through more then the rest.

Amazing episode. Both in comedy and drama-romance aspect.

Morita has succeeded again in delivering laughs. Even his brother is also hilarious. XD

Good to see that Yamada is starting to realize her feelings towards Nomiya although she's still hopelessly clinging to Mayama.

OST's and insert songs of this series are awesome btw.

That was so awesome ~~ !! I absolutely love Nomiya, him and Yamada are so wonderful. Yamada's monologue was so painfully beautiful to listen to. I was crying... I wish she could forsake her feelings for Mayama, but I can understand how she feels connected to her feelings, and that running away from them would be like a kind of 'betrayal'. I've been in a situation like that before, and I really feel close to Yamada right now. I just love Nomiya so much. His devotion to her is admirable.

I'd like to know more about Morita. Why is he working so hard with his brother and get all those money for...

I've always loved to watch Nomiya x Yamada moments. I hope Yamada will get over with Mayama quickly. I really don't like that dude much. And I'm not sure why.

And uh, so Nomiya and Miwako are siblings, are they not?

It was nice of Miwako to look after Yamada and cheer her up. I also get why Yamada is having such conflicted feelings. She’s been so set on Mayama for so long that now when she’s starting to have feelings for Nomiya, she feels like she’s losing herself; after all that’s who she’s been for this whole time. Nomiya is quite the guy, swallowing his pride and taking initiative even after Yamada doesn’t call him after he confessed. The end scene with him coming after her on the bridge was great.

I think Morita is saving up for someone else like his parents or something. He and his brother have been conducting this shady business since the start and it seems Morita is eager to be finished since he keeps asking how much more.

Takemoto is definitely less mature than his senpais but that’s to be expected. I hope he’ll mature as they have.

Nice episode. Really curious about Morita's job and what they're aiming for exactly. Hopefully Yamada gives Nomiya a chance. Looking forward to see how this turns out for them and of course waiting for more scenes involving Takemoto, Hagu, and Morita.

Yamada thinks that if she starts to like Nomiya then all her feelings for Mayama will be wasted as well as all these years of her love for him.

Loved this episode. Miwako is so kind, mature and she sure is beautiful too!^^
Those massage ladies? were hilarious! The way Nomiya said ' i want to see that' gave me chills XD
Sigh... Yamada has been through a lot and it feels kind of not fair that Mayama got everything so easy and is now smiling happily. I wonder, has he ever noticed how much pain he brings to Yamada?
Her feelings for him are always so beautifuly narrated that it feels real. Poor Yamada...:'( I havent seen any other anime character who went through the same love torture.
The ending was beautiful. Nomiya patting Leader and then stretching his hand towards Yamada to pat her too was so cute!

I wonder what kind of job Morita does... and the "goal" they were talking about.
The convo between Takemoto and Mayama was nice... Hoping to see some scenes between him and Hagu in the next episode.

Yamada has almost been beaten in to submission (figuratively speaking).
Good episode as usual. Only one more relationship to settle.
Also Morita is involved in something shady, at least how it sounded.

Miwako teasing Nomiya one the phone was funny, too bad that it didn't turn into a yuri scene with her and Yamada :|

Motita hilarious as always, but I wonder what's the deal with his brother.

And at last Yamada is trying to forget Mayama and open up to Nomiyas feelings a little bit, great. I really like the developments of the last few episodes.

You can tell Yamada is most people's "self-insert character" in the show because they care waaaaay more about whom she is going to end up with than literally everything else in the rest of the show combined.

I was just about thinking....Yamada is being stubborn at this point. And she finally opened took the first steps to open her heart. Beautiful.....

She’s so lucky to have Nomiya by her side

The ED always hits at the right moment. Suneohair always does things to my heart

It would be so much easier
If these stale emotions
Could disappear without a word

At the crossroads where we split ways
It saddens me to think we way never meet again
