I don't think that Isshuukan Friends is a romantic drama at all; it should not intend to be one, and it should never be classified as one. Its drama bases more off of Fujimiya's incapability or limitation at intimate social interaction and her subsequent development based on that premise, rather than any romantic indecision or love triangle. I doubt that Shougo has any interest for Fujimiya.

[I thought that your way-of-thinking was extremely far-fetched and out-of-nowhere until I saw your forum avatar. Lol'd. It all makes sense now.]


What about my forum avatar? I fail to see the connection between Kazusa and far-fetchness...

As for Ishuukan friends, I'm well aware that it's not a romantic drama. Reference to Shougo was made to point out the contradiction with Hase's naivete. As I've already stated in my original post, I'm not expecting to see any drama in the form of love triangle.

Oh here we go again with re-feels.

Anyways, I loved how Shogo acted in this episode. I hope he and Kaori will be more close than before. Bring on the number 18!
The world shall know the truth soon.

Shougo made me increase the score to 9/10. If they dont make this a shitty triangle it will at least stay that way. And if they introduce another awesome support like him it can really become the show of the season for me.

I knew math was going to have something to do with this! XD I bet it's going to be a key in helping her remember stuff. Did she make 18 tamagoyaki?

This is my weekly dose of cute. It's a little slow, but I don't mind.


18 for the 18 grams of sugar used in Hase's favorite one.

Riiiight. Hah, don't know how I missed that. Thank you :)

Very well executed episode. Loved it. The ED seems better than I remember... or it's just that I never listened to it. Same with the opening.

Shougo, the good guy? I like it. :)

I remember in the manga there was a joke of Hase-kun and Fujimiya switching roles. Now imagine...

His last two phrases really scared me for a second, but after the preview, now I understand that it was about the next episode.

I was scared when she ran out of the room, but in the end, it was nothing but tears of joy, for both of us :')

Shougo is a nice character. He is really cold and skeptic, but in the end, he never meant to be mean. His theory on the trauma is interresting. It would explain why she only forget about friends.

I wonder if his sister is the girl we see in the ED.

I loved when he pointed out how lovey-dovey the two of them were and Fujimiya didn't seem to get it xD
At the same time, it's kinda sad because it show how much inhabituated she is to have friends around her. She doesn't really understand the society line between friendship and love.

Awe so cute making Hase lunch every day ;)

Shogo is extremely straight-forward, he speaks the harsh reality/truth.

18 and some of her memories returned? Or maybe math was the trick? Actually she was making eggs by herself so wouldn't those memories have stayed anyways?

The next episode sounds dramatic.

I really loved this episode, this show is just 2 cute !!!!

And I really like Shogos attitude although I cant help but think that he already knew Fujimiya in the past, all that talk about memory and stuff, idk but I just hope the show keeps that Fuzzy atmosphere lol.


Truly, comparisons between fellow humans are what turn out to be the most infuriating.

I think she forgot about it because she made them for him. so those memories are related to him. at least that's the only way it would fit in.

I really enjoyed the episode, however I'm having trouble getting drawn to the characters sometimes. I feel like despite how emotional they can be, I can't feel for them as much as I want to.

Not sure why they changed the dialogue with Kiryuu and the girls so much..The stuff they cut made him out as even more of a bro, they just did the bare minimum to convey his good guy side. I really hope that doesn't keep up, since it really doesn't make since to understate their friendship.

They also changed what Fujimiya said to the girls from "Even I have friends!" Which had a lot more impact for her development alone. Seems they're really pushing the relationship between her and Hase above all else.

Hopefully Brains Base doesn't take any more liberties than they already have, now that they've adapted everything up to ch 3, having only moved the "18" scene to this episode. They did do a great job on that scene though, and I think it was a good move to save it for this episode since it had a little more impact.

It just seems like they're doing everything possible to keep people from



+1. I don't like how they are changing a few things. They removed the head pat scene. That makes me really sad. Hope they don't change even more things. =(

Adding Shougo to Kaori's friend circle at the rooftop was one of the best scenes so far
with the Harsh, but realistic arguments pointed out by him
It was nice to see Kaori regaining some of her memories at the end

The rest was sweet and cute as hoped for

You guys need to try and watch 50 First Dates a 2004 movie.

This show is Quite literally Like the movie : 50 First Dates by Adam Sandler or say the movie was the main reference for the whole manga. To where a guy meets girl (girlfriend material) then find out that she resets her memories every 1 week. With probably the same reason of having a short term memory because of an accident from the past. The only difference being that on this show's story it happens at school with younger characters etc.

Nonetheless pretty good series and Nice and simple art work.

Ah. It was a good and cute episode.
I'm really liking Shougo's character, and his VA is a plus too.
It was nice to see Fujimiya remembering bits of her memories from previous weeks.
I wonder if their will be a thing between Shougo and Fujimiya.
Well, not much to describe in this episode..it was moemoemoe but I will watch episode 4 tomorrow.

Gotta love the 'fuzzy' moment between Hase & Fujimiya. Really cute! =3

However, judging by Hase's last few lines at the end of the episode & by the preview for next time, the drama and feels will be turned up a notch or two. Definately looking foward to it.

Too many people knowing your secret sounds like it could bring about bad things. That preview looks ominous, but I'm sure it will be sweet as ever.

Shogo's definitely my favorite character in this series, this episode did nothing more than solidify that. Also, I think I've finally gotten over my issues with the contrived amnesia plot, Shogo's analysis on the roof helped. Granted, it's not like I haven't considered that it's subconsciously afflicted due to her past, I have. And I still think that requires a great deal of suspension of disbelief. It's just that I feel this episode is starting to utilize it in a way that can make me overlook it.

I always though the series was executed great & I suppose it was only a matter of time before it won me over. That "18" scene was really great too, it's a great first step towards recovery. Time to catch up.

5/5

Episode of doubts and trials, the plot seems to be advancing well and insinuate a doubt that before did not seem to be there, or not feasible.
Narration sweet and raw at the same time.
Beautiful designs and believable characters, although not yet well characterized.
Pleasing the opening and the ending.
