so sad cant help but feel guilty if i was narumi... or mitsuki i mean if he wasnt late none of it would happen! although on another note how come haruka doesnt have any scars or anything of that sort there should be some after all she was hit by a truck! why are all anime characters that were involved in accidents still pretty?

^ Well, 3years had passed so it is expected that the scars have already been healed. The only thing that is affected in the health would be that Haruka is now thin, since she's in comma, she can't eat food daily; just the dextrose maintaining his daily need of nutrients.

In this episode, it looks like she has now a memory problem. XD

Kinda reminds me of Onegai Teacher of stopping time.


I don't know whose side to take on.
- I feel sorry for Mitsuki; even from the start, he loves Narumi but is already hindered when he got close to Haruka and knows that Haruka loves Narumi too. So she can't blame herself in loving Narumi when she had a chance to be with him.
- I feel sorry for Haruka too; she is like just PURE INNOCENT. Nothing to know, just the past time that her time stopped. And because she's ill, I'm really pitying on her.
- I feel sorry for Akane too; she can't be blamed also because she's Haruka's sister. So, it's expected for her to be so much angry at Mitsuki.

Anyways, I'm trying to figure out what I'm going to do when I'm in the place of Narumi. Narumi made the wrong move in putting up relationships with Mitsuki even though he still had a girlfriend. Remind me that they haven't yet broke up since Haruka is in comma-state. I'd rather not rush for the time and love; and wait for Haruka to woke up. Only I will make a move to another relationship if only we've officially broke up or something like impossible to be with her forever (death). ---- and of course, with the time to move on; NOT like after the girl died, I'll find another girl. LOL!!!

I know it's hard to wait for 3years, but atleast; there are no regrets in the future.

I'm having a down feeling when watching this show. I'm happy that there's Ayu-Mayu Theater to liven it up!!!

Coma girl should know time has went by since her boyfriend is much taller, and mitsuki is much taller and more mature, along with her sister, so what the hell?
Episode 2 she went in a coma, 3 years and 2 episodes later shes out of it, bad ass.

I'm surprised they're having her wake up so soon. I knew the basic framework of this show before watching it and thought it would at least be half-way through before she woke up.

My feelings exactly. Although I think its a little unfair of Akane to put all the hate on Misuki, it take two to be in a relationship after all :/

Its a shame to because finally deciding to move in together, and Misuki letting out a lot of the tension she'd been building up by crying, seemed to have helped get them back on the road to happiness (joking around while eating etc) :(

It's hard to lay blame on anyone here. The situation is exceedingly unfair to all involved.

So, I'm assuming it's the old "X second memory" thing going on? Perhaps that's why she's "Stuck in time" It's a little hard to suspend my disbelief for it, though, because her hair is longer, everyone she knows has aged (at a point in their lives where aging is very very noticeable) and her body shows the signs of long term atrophy. How can she not notice that?

If she can create new memories (which I doubt), then they really need to stop beating around the bush and tell her about the 3 years she's been in a coma.

I'll put up my differing opinions on this episode's board as well then. I still feel that the fast-forward style is a poor choice for a moe tragedy - you need time to build up compassion for the characters. I cannot associate to any of the main characters as well as I wish could at this stage. Other series had me reeled in by now (eg. Clannad, Kanon).

That said, they are now starting with the flashbacks that were much needed and they are already softening up my critical mind. The characters are getting fleshed out and especially Takayuki's emotions right after the incident are -thankfully- getting a close-up. At the point where I am writing this I am actually a few episodes ahead of #4 and my overall mark for this series has gone from a vague 4 to a solid 6. Let's see how high it can climb.

What she said. Akane, that is.

It's a pity I can't really feel any sympathy for Takayuki or Mitsuki. Whatever tradegy they might face, I'll probably just cheer or be indifferent instead of it having the saddening impact the writers intended.

I feel terrible for Haruka and Akane.

in all realistic expectations, how long would you visit her if u were narumi? would you honestly visit consistently for 3 years (not knowing how long it would take, or even IF, she would wakeup?)

i think mitsuki and narumi's relationship together post-accident is perfectly normal and acceptable. they were both good friends and became lovers.

akane is the only person who is unreasonable here. shes being immature and petty. narumi and mitsuki made the right choice in being together. its just unfortunate how things r gonna turn out now, since there was no proper closure to the initial relationship.

I would visit her for a while but then I'd give up, yes. But Narumi being with her best friend is just... I don't know, I'd hate myself if I were him. Not to mention that it was his fault that she got hit by a car. Mitsuki's too. Though I personaly blame Mitsuki more.
I really don't like her.

I have to take a break every so often to cry into my tissues. This is such an emotional anime. It took off so emotional this has to be right behind After Story for me. It is almost to hard to watch, but honestly how long would I have visited her? Maybe a year but I would lose faith and look for someone who can help me which he did.

I had this series on my drive for quite sometime, but I avoided it, because of the emotional drama that is spread around the internet, but I'm glad now, that I am watching it, this series is so quick and to the point, its difficult to lose interest.

Regarding episode #4:

I've to emphasize that Akane grudge toward Mitsuki is understandable, but it doesn't make it right. Sorry for being blunt, but I wouldn't wait for a coma stated girl for 3 years, when we only officially dated for few months. Secondly, the first girl, I was in love with, is right there supporting me.

Let see how the couple handle this situation and act around it. Its so sad really, because Haruka was important to the both of them (ex-lover/best friend).I sympathize for Haruka at first (neglectful BF, accident, lost BF), but this series really know how to steer my emotions toward Mitsuki now.

What is Mitsuki gonna do? Is she gonna give up her Takayuki?

I really feel for all four of those characters. Yes even the sister too. You gotta figure she wasn't mature when it happened, so she's had to see this all along.

You almost wish they could all three become a family together. It's clear even Mitsuki loves Haruke too. Man. Three episodes in a row I've been bawling my eyes out. What a touching, sad story. And now the hardest part is coming.

I think is fair for Akane to put all the hate on Mitsuki , because if she didn't stopped Narumi, Haruka would be fine also is her fault for hooking them up although she loved Narumi, it would have been better if she told Haruka about her true feelings (tough but fair ).
That shithead Narumi spent time with Mitsuki although he was late for date , he is not worthy to be loved by such pure and innocent girl .
The Mitsuki I know
is awesome but this one is the worst, I hate her !

- looks like there's some side effects / memory issues with Haruka, that's probably why they didn't tell her over 3 years has passed (but I wonder how much time told her has passed instead? Surely, comatose or not- common sense would let one know that time has passed since your friends and family have grown older/taller/etc)


- Akane's animosity towards Mitsuki dating Takayuki is selfish, illogical and just plain silly. Sure, Haruka woke up after "3 years" but what if she didn't? What if it became 5 years? A decade?-- You would force Mitsuki and Takayuki to never move on?

The anime is very touching and the pacing is rather good but it has a problem with being melodramatic and unreasonable "conflict" at times. Straight eye-roll worthy

Don't understand why people actually blame Takayuki for the accident lmao, he's no god he can't control whatever the fuck is going to happen duh, sure he made her wait for a bit but how many dates there are in the world are not "late"? not like accidence happens at 100% of the time people are having a date so that's just dumb to put the blame on him.

Regarding Mitsuki and Takayuki having a relationship, I don't see any problem with that. The 2 of them went way back, each had been shown to have hidden feelings for the other, and god knows how many more fucking year Haruka was going to wake up from their perspective so it's ridiculous to force people to move at the same pace as she did. 3 years is a whole fucking lot, it's not just a number so try to put yourself in their shoes for 1 sec.

It's most unfortunate for Haruka, yes. But time is cruel, it's an objective fact that people can't remain the same forever. I understand why Akane had to be mad but her putting all the blame on Mitsuki while going on verbal abuse is just meh. That said, she's still young compared to the other characters so I don't really hate her for that. Props to Mitsuki for keeping herself cool all the time though.

My stance so far:
+ Haruka is a good girl, your typical kind and endearing girlfriend material but that's about it.
+ Mitsuki is a tough girl on the front (she looks kinda cool and badass at times ngl) but deep inside she's very sensitive and can get easily broken down when things reached certain level. On top of that, she always seems to be in an internal conflict between pursuing her personal goal (which is Takayuki) and maintaining her consideration for others (like Haruka), which makes her a more compelling character to me.
+ Takayuki is basically your ordinary playboy who's indecisive in like everything, which is a problem but at the same time essential to make the plot moving so lel.
+ Akane is just Haruka's hypesquad. I enjoy her trolling around in the beginning but at this point I just find her to be quite generic of that kind of narrow-minded youngster so whatever.

What's the deal with Mitsuki saying it's not like they'll marry.. Well, maybe she's tsundere as she was before.. Or maybe some guilt after Haruka's incident.. But I didn't picture her to be type like that, she didn't look like one.. She looked like one, who would just fight through it.. But who knows..
How is that doctor just smoking, lol.. Or at least carrying one in her mouth all the time.. I mean, doctors also are people, but maybe not at this workplace?.. ;p
Eh, I wouldn't call person who actually found courage to date another woman, while Haruka is in coma - a coward.. But in the end.. It doesn't matter, I guess - this exact point, I guess.. What matters.. Is that Akane is frustrated that Takayuki isn't with Haruka anymore.. But.. They don't really have to please her or anything.. In the end, both Takayuki and Mitsuki, maybe also Haruka, but not sure of her mental capabilities in this - need to decide for themselves, what they want in life ahead.. You won't please everyone.. Your country law system doesn't allow harem marriages or anything.. So you have to choose a girl.. But well, desire to please everyone, somehow maybe to work things out will perhaps outweight.. I can kinda understand that, I guess..

After meet accidentally with Akane, Mitsuki tried to stay away from Takayuki. But, Takayuki showing his relationship seriousness by planning to buy apartment/house to live with Mitsuki. So, Mitsuki not tried to stay away again.

But, suddenly Haruka wake up from coma. As I presumed Takayuki and Mitsuki have got into Dangerous if not Destruction Territory Relationship.

Haruka got some Loop Memory that maybe her memory was stuck in time so she can moved her memory from that recent time Wow so complicated.

Now I wanna know, How Takayuki deal with this problem. Because the problem was really intense. Hope can be result with no one hurted feeling But, looks like almost impossible.

i don't feel like you owe someone a lifetime just because you dated for a few months (if that), especially since they were just highschoolers. akane and her parents should have been preparing for when haruka woke up, so that they could explain the passage of time to her and what happened. if she wanted to meet up with mitsuki and takayuki after she was better, for some closure, that would be her choice. but now everyone is going to be miserable and it's certainly not going to help haruka adjust to how things are now.
