I feel like there's a lot more drama for second half of this series including this episode...

Otoya can run but the problems will come back to haunt him from the past. Luckily, he's got friends that are there for him. I found their plan to show their performance on the big screen in front of the city to be rather clever.

He just left one word that he cannot stay with them. The reason is revealed when listening to the song. Mamo's character went to figure out his partner's past, first up with Midorikawa-san's character. It was not his intention, but it just happened to reach his father's goal of destroying the group. Everyone, including Quartet Night, is worried.

Everyone found about his past. Before that real show, they must find him. The group's old song screened and that made him act to go over his pain.

All I can say is that the second half of this show has been really dramatic yet I'm starting to actually like the approach of the show.

Of course they'll end with another cliffhanger.

Oh! My... I crying...
UtaPri again give me so many feelings~~
I waited so long for these feelings...
I cried so much during Starish song...

This is UtaPri I liked, little drama and friendship power <3

I must said... that Otoya dark song was pretty cool
and from all arc in this season this one is the best xD

so many drama and intensity, This somehow different than the normal utapri but its really interesting. Tokiya trying to help Ittoki in any way he could until he even tried finding out about his past.

Ittoki is reall similar to masato, running away from their own past but when they are faced with it they broke down, but then they got back uo with the help of friends. Hope Ittoki will really come back next episode.

I hope Eiichi feels at least bit of guilt for breaking otoya and making him go missing, now I really hate Eiichi, hope in the next episode he will bow and say sory to the STARISH members for breaking otoya.

Excited to hear whatSTARISH will say to otoya next episode

Ittoki!!!!!!!!T-T
You better be smiling again by the next episode!
That STARISH song was really beautiful :)
That cliffhanger though! Just when they were all together!
Also, I hope Eiichi is repenting for his actions with 24/7 guilt ( he better apologize to Ittoki if the show allows it!)

Hopefully the old Otoya will be fully back next ep...
I still can't believe they tried a similair plot from his route in utapri debut, like seriously
that sort of plot you don't want to see twice. T~T

aaahh good stuff. didn't expect this from this type of anime. if only they foreshadowed the backstory earlier (like in s1 or s2), then it would have been more powerful.

this was the first time i've cried for utapri at least.

We continue with Otoya's backstory. It still doesn't cover everything in the game, but we're getting more than what has been in the anime so far.

It certainly has been more dramatic and honestly I like that we're getting darker.

That cliffhanger though.

Episode was a little bit too overdramatic to my liking and Otoya's breakdown was too sudden to be even the least bit believable, BUT I love Yume Oibito e no Symphony sooo I still could enjoy it <3

Otoya's backstory has been a really dramatic turn for the series! Hopefully he will be smiling again soon!

That cliffhanger!
So glad that I'm not a huge manga reader, because the manga readers WHINE WAY TOO MUCH and have to RUIN every adapted anime for the ANIME ONLY WATCHERS!

These last few episodes have been a real emotional roller coaster and I think Otoya's takes the cake. I'm unsure as to whether the HEAVENS members are trying to help STARISH or just being overly manipulative jerks for their own personal gain...or both...This has generally left the group in poor taste with me but maybe that will change as the episodes roll on. (damn cliffhangers)

I do like the fact that all the trials each member has gone through with the duet project's has pushed them to grow in different ways. (It was beyond adorable seeing Tokiya really worry about Otoya <3. Massive change from season 1 up until now.) This show has really taken a serious turn.

(p.s (unpopular opinion) i'm also glad they aren't focusing on Nanami as much...=x)

OMG! I'm crying again. Cry when Otoya said to Tokiya that he cant be apart of starish anym0re, he cant smile anym0re T,T
cry when Tokiya told to Starish about Otoya's past, Cry when Otoya walk alone on the street with stresess face, cry when Starish sing for him, cry whe i saw him cry, cry when during Otoya's back stories, and cry whenStarish find him to tell what they feel. This eps is beautyfull, :"( i cAnt wait for the next chap.
btw, am i the only one who want to see Nanami d0es s0mething for Otoya?
I want to see Nanami sings just for him, or does s0mething r0mantic or s0mething sPecial for Otoya. . .

;___________; When Otoya said, "I can't. I'm sorry. I...can't smile anymore," I squealed x(( And then he said he can't be part of STARISH?!

Why does Eiichi have a photo of Haruka's smile as his contact photo of her? .______.

Oh...so Otoya lost his aunt and they didn't go to the sunflower field together. Believing that he would someday lose the people important to him...that's such a deep scar :(

I have to say, I missed Shining Saotome's random English - "noz'hing" xD

Awe, Ai changed so much! I'm happy! :) He felt that Otoya would return despite there being no objective evidence - in season 2, he only relied on objective evidence, and he began to change in season 3 when he started looking more at his heart. Now he doesn't seem robot-like. ^^

The depth from Masato...I didn't expect him to speak up...I see that Masato and Otoya are alike since they have scores to settle, but have avoided their issues for so long. Yet, Otoya's is much tougher because he must settle matters with his own heart... :(
When Natsuki said, "He can overcome his painful past," I like that he too was speaking from experience :'-) "With friends, we're stronger" <3

When Otoya was running and there was a red light...I was scared that he'd get into a car accident T----T Uta-pri, when did you start making me anxious??

AWE!! That's so sweet! STARISH's song is so relevant to Otoya's situation and brought him out of his darkness. :)) It felt like a breath of fresh air when Ringo and Hyuga appeared on the billboard. I actually wanted to listen to Saotome’s song, For Love though… ><

OMG…the intense music when STARISH came to the sunflower field ;______; A cliff-hanger ending…now that was unexpected.
