THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Another great episode. Filled with life situations and fun, Tari Tari is slowly shaping up to be life itself and of the drama involved in it through memories for one's and past. This was obvious with Sawa’s horseback riding remembering along with Sakai’s past with her mother. Both seem to evoke emotions like many memories do .However the question is why was some suppressed by them? I guess now they realize why they buried them. Tari Tari essentially might be a show that shows of how to manage one’s own memories in favor of a good life. I see some of that in this series so far. Tanaka/Wien are missing a lot of their past.

That being said I liked a lot Konatsu in the following,

The sleeping party was great! I ROFL so hard at Sawa’s reactions to Konatsu’s noise making while sleeping in the spoiler
now that horse plushy and what Sawa did to Konatsu was hilarious.

About Ass Slapping, I don’t know what’s up with that but it seems it’s becoming something quite apparent with this episode. It concerns of Konatsu getting spanked in the list
  • First by Sawa’s mother in the spoiler
    that funny cause the way Konatsu grabbed her ass after. I guess it was to push her.

  • However it seems Sawa in the spoiler
    attempts to slap Konatsu’s ass. Moreover she fails but nonetheless tried there.
So this is all weird but at most I assume Sawa’ mother liking her + Sawa developing a licking to slap Konatsu’s ass can only mean a Yuri FORESHADOW of Sawa x Konatsu? Well it would not be a first of DFC + Big Breasts combo of Romance. However I would prefer it would be Wien. I don’t know something tells me it would be good. Tanaka should go with Sawa. Both seem to sportive.

About thee end, the end of the episode leaves a nice bikini hula-hula dance in the spoiler
whom I liked since Sawa/Konatsu danced sexy with all the features wrapped in a nice swimsuit. However what left impression is the following,

Along with the spoiler
whom proves that Konatsu got her signature of her favorite group since she was a kid. Konatsu there looks MOE and sexy. She really reminds me of Ohana there.

About Sakai along in thee end, that’s all I have to say for the following spoiler
Sakai holding a letter that looks depressed on the beach as the evening goes on. There are a few things I can analyze. For one the time it was taken looks like the light is being taken away by the dark , which suggests me that Sakai is getting depressed over the letter and that it contain bad/not the way she expected news. For 2 they don’t reveal Sakai's face so I assume it’s something to have impact later on her. I suspect it’s Sawa’s letter from her mother to the band but not sure of its content or what it implies. Just it has a deep meaning.

About the preview, from the looks of the spoiler
something is stirring up in school and more Sakai’s past with her mother. I am really seeing Sakai’s mother as a nice graceful caring figure that destroyed a lot upon its death in what hopes Sakai had. Not a bad thing but unfair is the right word. Sakai is realizing this a little. Might edit later.

but why did she say in preview, that she will throw away her piano from room? :/

Glad Sawa knocked some sense into Konatsu who seems to be easily distracted.

Speaking of Sawa, my god she's a total hottie:

..........Well that's nothing new but I guess I best watch for that notion since it's confirmed here.

Hanasaku also had that problem at some points. Strangely enough but before it's a common problem of anime. Guess the infection spread to this one.

This episode was great and the singing scene was good as all of them are so far. It also seems that ass-slapping runs in Sawa's family. Wien is still the best character. He's so fun to watch and all the other characters are too. I can't wait until Wakana finally decides to get into music again.

Wien is great indeed...

And I think Sawa is increasing the cup padding each day to see if Konatsu ever notices.

... I find Konatsu's (Asami Seto) singing really beautiful, but is it me or does Konatsu appear to be just average within the anime? (Meaning the VA sings better than what the character is supposed to)

This series is not improving any, in fact it may be getting worse.

the problem with this series is that while its not a bad show the truth is the horrible screen writing and script suck all the emotion out of this show which doesn't leave much im afraid.

Thankfully, Wakana is growing on me... though I like Konatsu less now, idk. Sawa is awesome. Wien continues to be adorable, I just can't even deal with his "falsetto". I wish he got more attention from the other characters, he's the best. Don't even remember the other guy's name.

Decent episode, still lots of potential to shine later on.

The OP thing has been mentioned before, and yes, I believe you're right.

This episode was pretty meh (6/10). It wasn't noticeably bad, but it lacked a bit of the je ne sais quoi that made the first three episodes seem so promising. Wakana is still as cute as ever though.

Ah so I got misguided there. The setting was more to show out the feelings but it was not in the view I saw it. Sawa should be more happier. Something tells me the setting is not right despite being nice. I mean the time of day it was read.

Yeah that's right and we need the mother to butt slap the VP cause she needs to wake up to some attitude changes seriously (since it runs in the family with close friends like you mention). Too strict in general.

I like this episode. Wasn't really 'love' it because I expected more singing like EP1 or EP2 did, which hooked me in. However, it's still awesome otherwise, and yet I still feel that the episode was too short.

There were a lot of character development on this one. The notable mention is Wakana (Sakai) where finally she and Konatsu are calling each other by first name. How cute :3

I like the flashback about Sawa and Sabre. Who do you think would be next? Wien?

---

This ep started off with Konatsu in the swimsuit. She still look very cute, and I'm so happy that I can see her in that again in this episode. I like the fact that those band is indeed Condor Queen's, and I know that Konatsu were happy about that as well, in spoiler:


BTW, and now we know more that Konatsu were dancing to Condor Queen's music, which was unexpected for me. I'd think she'd dance to some kind of Japanese O-Ban music.



Young Konatsu's damn cute, that I really had to make this:



Compared to how she dance now, I think they're the same!



Also, I like Konatsu's expression in the spoiler:

First butt slapped, now cheek squeezing, poor Konatsu!

This next scene made me laugh a bit, in spoiler:

Now I felt bad for Sawa, as she really couldn't sleep that night even after silence Konatsu down. Also, look at how Konatsu sleep, compared to Sawa.

I think this episode show the third costume for Konatsu, which is actually just a pink T-Shirt. I kinda like how she look casual on those T-Shirt, in the spoiler:


And finally for Konatsu, this got me LOL so badly:

Which later then get c-c-c-combobreaker in the episode!

Seriously, that was a nice progression on Konatsu, that she now know that she will get butt-slapped. :3

---

I like how the rest of the group progress on as well. Wien was one of THE BEST on learning to sing. If you can remember this scene in the spoiler:

His sound was like crap. It's soooo bad that I laughed. However, if you caught his voice practice when he and the group walked back from school before found Konatsu, you would notice that his voice sounded *a lot* better, and very nice.


For Sawa, that girl's voice is charming. But oh boy, she was really pissed when Konatsu wanted to cancel the choir practice again. "BAKA!"


On the other hand, I don't feel like this episode really focus on Tanaka, but I think that will changed in the next episode after I saw the preview, as it seems like there'll be a Tennis match.

Wakana did not really progressed much in term of singing. Her storyline does progress more in terms of her background. This time, she now realized that the Spanish guy were her mother's friend, and wasn't asked for money. (I found it a bit disturbing to find out that that guy could also speak Japanese. Why didn't he speak with Wakana in Japanese in the first place?! … However, when I re-watched the "I don't money!" portion of EP3, I think I'll forgive them.)

At the practice time, I was a bit disappointed when I found out that she were missing from the room while everybody were singing on the other room.

Until I found out that she actually went out to find a stage for the club! She got involved again even she said she don't want to sing.

However, during the practice with CD session, where we were looking at Konatsu singing, then to Tanaka, Wien, and Sawa (what a great voice!), when the scene cut to Wakana, she weren't singing, which made me sad.

(BTW, did any of you noticed that Sawa was preparing her dress for the performance? :3)

I really hope that the conversation between Condor Queen's and Wakana will made her starting to sing again, after she realized that her mother always sing and did not give up even when she was sick.

---

Another notable LOL that I can remember, was that when they were cheering at the end. They weren't speaking the same thing, which made me laugh.


By the way, I really like the dress of the group this time, as in spoiler:

Wien's costume is a bit funny though. His headband reminds me of Sun Wukong.

At the end, I like how Condor Queen's signing a photo for Konatsu, and then (forced) to take a photo with the group. That old guy's reaction was hilarious!


---

So this episodes, there're several things that I found *resolved*

* The fish in the spoiler really something that resemble Wakana's mother, Mahiru


* No one in Condor Queen's is Wakana's father, as in spoiler:


Hoever, it left me with this new point:

* What is in this letter?!



and why did this made Wakana so sad and depressed at the ending? I don't like that! It's just like she doesn't have enough drama already. I want to see her smile more.



---

Now, I can't wait for the next episode! (With more singing, please!!!)

I do think VA's voice really better than character. Again, I still think that's fine, as in the story Konatsu loves music since she was a kid. That would mean she would have practiced some.

I do too! I'm so curious on how her voice would be like, and how she would fill in the ED. (Seriously, she should come to sit with the group already?!)

Is it just me or is something going to start between Tanaka and Sawa? I wonder if there will be a love triangle? I could see Wien falling for Wakana but what about Konatsu? Things should get interesting.

When it came to Wakana the song cuts off and we hear the typical "Cricket Silence", that was just sad.
