The bike knocked him off the bridge and he hit his head on impact. This gave him amnesia. Nobody knows who the person on the bike was. Some people think that it was Linda and some think that it was the guy that Linda's new sister in law was having an affair with. Or it could be just some random person. Idk. Keep watching to find out


Would be scandalous if it was that guy, but unless he runs over and gives Linda amnesia as well, kinda bit of a stretch. However, I wish that they would expand or at least explain what happened to Linda's brother and his cheating fiancee.

LOL OP song was awful in my opinion. The previous one blew this one out of the water, but oh well. Nothing really happened in this episode in terms of moving the story along besides ghost Banri being a big dick.

Why am I the only person to think that the new beginning is a premonition to their future problems(Banrdi and Koko) and eventual breakup? Did you not see the scene with the wedding adnotations? Can someone make out what is written on them?

Awesome episode, after 2 long weeks again Golden Time with a new Opening and Ending.

Very intense Flashback of the time when Linda and Banri talked to each other in the forest, as I knew, Linda still has feelings for him beyond the brother thing, also the last episode repeated the scene where she says " Everything was the opposite.". I am really looking forward for Golden Time right now.

Also there it seems like Banri's Ghost is really annoyed by Banri's behavior due to his feelings for Linda.
So he started to curse him and make him even unhappier than he is, he wants to make him very unhappy.

Koko is an air yakisoba professional cook, really you have to gain a lot of experience for acting like her.

Also nice punch from Nana, I think everybody would punch a random guy in front of him/her doing something like that, Banri such ill intention haha.

I am really looking forward to the next episodes.

I think of it as having empathy for the current Banri and his attempt at having a full life again.

I liked this episode but Ghost Banri is going too far cursing him, it's pissing me off (maybe he thinks that destroying Banri's life will give him his body back?).
The OP song... I didn't like it, maybe it's the bad audio rip quality, but I prefer the old one.
I'm learning English so maybe I make mistakes :)

WTF? Horrible episode... what the heck did they do to main characters personalities?!! This was really turn down. And fanservice next time? Is this series changing its genre to comedy now?

And what was that scene with Banri rejecting the kiss? He had no reason for it, right? Stupid writers.

It's quite hard to see. I believe they're the names of the couples being married, maybe? Someone & Koko? The other one I don't even know.

That's what I figured. I can't make out the rest of the names... I just see Koko on the left, Yanagisawa on the right(so they're not on the same table) but I can't make out anything more and I'm not sure.

Also I don't know why but I've got a stong feel that something is going to go wrong and Banri and Koko are going to have a breakup, the last scene of the opening where Koko looks peacefull again after her endavours through the whole opening and when she is surprised to see Banri(who holds her hand) coupled with the last scene of the ending confuses me.

It feels like a break up is inevitable at this point. I feel Banri will choose to break it off while he goes soul searching(no pun intended). There will be some kind of Linda development during this time but He'll be reminded of the memories of Koko. This is where the ending comes into play. This signifies that they managed to hold on to their relationship in the end even after all of the trials they suffered through.

Again just my little theory.

Yes i see now. More importantly if people pay more attention to the new op and ed there's obviousy problems, someone at fault, someone feeling down, a forgiving process, time goes on(lots of clocks and directions), a sudden change of pace and a surprising ending in the ed.

That would explain things. I couldn't find a better picture to actually see. That certainly clears things up.

Is it just me or did the new OP sound like a radio with static? Either way, did not like it.

I wonder who's wedding reception Koko was sitting at.

Banri needs to calm down its not like she was naked under the apron....sometimes I feel he is too feminine for Linda and Koko making him a perfect fit for for his friend Mitsuo.

Ghost Bandi need to get the hell out. Every time I see him in an episode it pisses me off to no end. Ghost Bandi needs his ghostly ass beat by the new Bandi, and it needs to happen fast.
On a different note, the new OP was interesting alright I will have to get use to it, but the new ED was amazing loved it.

Great episode!!!

Okay,that stupid Banri ghost makes the show going down... It's like they are forcing some useless drama making this 'battle' between the two Banri.
This episode was somehow more like a filler for me,I was watching how each minute was going so fast,waiting for some real development- but no. That dance,tho.
And Koko with her bad cooking. And the same flashback.

I want an OVA only with Nana.


I completely agree, I did not like the OP and ED and felt this episode was "meh" and "tell me something I don't know".

I don't think it's "supernatural". I just think it's a representation of his subconscious feelings of guilt and doubt, in a way that is easy for us viewers to understand.

I think Banri is not right in the head since he seems odd. Especially now he is "hearing voices" though I think that was probably just a joke.

More so a poltergeist than anything else, which I would suppose is supernatural. Also the hearing voices was his other self speaking.

Eh. This episode was okay, though kinda weird. I liked Koko in here, she seemed cute, but at the same time like she had lost her marbles. Idk. But that kiss rejection though, poor Koko. WTF's wrong with you Banri?

Ugh Ghost Banri is a freaking asshole. I feel like he's an unnecessary part of the show though. The writers could have introduced drama in a better way, because Ghost Banri's "curse" or whatever seems like a Deux ex machina.

Highlight of episode: Koko's lipstick nosebleed and Banri's... real nosebleed *Nana punch!*

I'm so over ghost Banri. He was good for the purpose of being a symbol for "regret". But Banri should already be past this by now.

I'm also getting tired of seeing another scene with Linda being Linda and brushing off Banri. What is this like 5 times now? every time she runs away from him. 2 of them were Banri straight up asking her about her feelings and she says "no" each time.

Also way over the silent mouth movement phantom dialogue. Japanese manga and anime writers need to ween themselves off that. It's beyond the point of being an overused cliche.

Koko was very amusing this episode. I wonder what they did to deal with her stage fright. Cooking scene was cute too.

I lol´d so much at the punch scene. Nana´s reaction was priceless and Banri got what he deserved for trying that thing ^^

That weird dance was funny as hell, especially the faces they were making. Also, Kouko in an apron was so cute :3

The new opening was weird (the first one was better), but the ending was good. I guess i will get used to it in time.
