| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Mm, fan service episode not that I was surprised. The bunny ears looked kinda cute on Haruka I guess. Also, dem feels and kiss. One of the more decent episodes imo this week. Hot: |

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series. |
| I saw one defect in the animation: At 06:15 there is a scene in the playground where Niima-san and the MC are standing near that big pink playground toy. Then, two other guys enter the playground. One is the "high angle shot" guy. The other is the "low angle shot" guy. In the part at 06:15, both of them are running very rapidly straight towards us (i.e. the camera). You can see them running and kicking up dust. However, their images never get larger even though they are supposedly approaching the camera. So it gives the weird impression that they are not actually running forwards, but simply jumping up and down on a single spot without moving. Having said that, I love the technical quality of the animation in this series. I made my one complaint. But in fact I think that 99% of the direction of the animation is excellent. It is essential to the whole premise of the show, since it is centered around the concept that the MC is taking very high quality pictures with his camera. On a separate note, it has recently been in the news that the Canon camera company has been having trouble selling their high-end cameras. Nowadays, every smartphone contains a built-in camera with better pixel resoution than anybody could want for any practical purpose. I am just guessing that there could be some correlation between this and the fact that the MC uses a "Canan" camera. Furthermore, his younger sister is called "Kanon" (果音). A few years ago there was another series (B Gata H Kei) where the MC had a hand-me-down "Nihon" camera, which was obviously an approximation to "Nikon", another Japanese manufacturer of high-end cameras. But back then it was actually a film camera and not a digital camera. As a result, it was possible to have a very erotic darkroom scene. The name for the Canon camera company originally came from the Buddhist Goddess of Mercy, whose name sounds like "Canon". It is written as 観音 or かんのん and phonetically spelled as "kannon". |

| Next week: omnibus starts. |
 |
| I guess this will be similar to Amagami . |
Nothing ventured, nothing gained (Girls und Panzer der Film ) / from Nishizumi Miho |
| You know what'd really turn this show around? If someone died. And by one really painful way. |

| Wow that's a lot of photos for one girl on display O.O Another galge route in the books; typical but good conclusion nonetheless to the childhood friend arc. Hope they can get to all of the girls especially Kaichou, Rina, and Masaki.(Can't leave out Ootani sensei and Tomoe even if that's my seiyuu whore inside speaking) So Haruka Niimi or Haruka Morishima? I have to go with Morishima senpai Now Haruka Niimi or Rihoko Sakurai? Probably Haruka Niimi but that's not saying much |

okanagan said: Very interesting commentary on the animation and on the decline of highend cameras. Some of this is a bit creepy, a lot of it is unrealistic. I still enjoyed it though. |
 |
| The romanticness just made me so happy and cheerful. Hope Haruka and Maeda stay together |
| "Currently playing the Game of of Life" Poppin Pills is All We Know - Antidote |
| Fan Service, Slow Mo Bounce, Cop a Feel and One big ass Pic of Nimi, Just like that, this route ends on a high note. Now the next Arc starts? Remind me of Amagami bit |

I definitely hope that nothing extremely bad is going to happen. So far so good. My biggest worry so far: The MC should not take his camera near the water at the beach, since the salt spray will work its way into the camera and corrode the metal parts inside. I was really terrified during that water wading scene. |

I was really terrified during that water wading scene. He has something like a Rebel series camera, aka Kiss or xxxD, with a kit lens so it wouldn't be a huge loss :P Now if he had something like a 5D or higher then I'd be scared! Not that anyone in the right mind (even his father lol) would simply hand down a 5D camera. XD |
| Haruka wanted the D. |
 |
| @yoshiyukiblade Thank you for identifying the possible specific models of the camera that he uses ! Here is much more info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canon_EOS_300D http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canon_EOS_350D http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canon_EOS_400D http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canon_EOS_450D - - - - - - - Yoshiyukiblade also told us that the main character almost certainly DOES NOT have the much more expensive Canon 5D model described here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canon_EOS_5D - - - - - - - - Is there anybody here who can make even more specific comments on the camera that he is using? The digital camera I use is 12 years old. |

| that was a great episode. i wonder if they are going to keep this relationship or move on with another girl. |

Tyradra said: i thought something like that was gonna happen this ep like with ef. Stop that, I don't want those feels right now. okanagan said: I was really terrified during that water wading scene. Me too man, me too.. Seriously though, Maeda is one clever mofo. You know he set that whole beach scene up like the manipulative bastard he is. |

okanagan said: Well, when it comes to SLR camera for casual use, in Japan it will have to be either Canon or Nikon, so it is not that surprising Canon is picked as there are really only two choices...On a separate note, it has recently been in the news that the Canon camera company has been having trouble selling their high-end cameras.

In Japan it is called "Kiss x2" and is named as the "fourth generation" of the Canon Kiss series - and we have the "ninth generation" now. The model is a 2008 one so not surprising that the MC's dad would want to pass it down to his son when he gets something new. He has something like a Rebel series camera, aka Kiss or xxxD, Anyway, here is one such camera used by an otaku:  |

| Oh. This really felt like an ending episode again. Like the episode 4 I think? Pretty good. He finally confessed. Way to go. |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| Fucking finally, this girls arc is done. I really hate these Mary Sue characters. I hope the other girls are better. Specifically Sakura Mai and Masaki Nonoka. |
a girl asks a guy to shove her butt .. lol what? o.O and to touch her chest, (with a smile)... just what @@  . . . this kind of beach scene @@,, im used to see tons of girls beaching together but this o.O and oohh bouncing beach soccer . . . not bad for a confession and a kiss... so does this anime end here? xD |
 |
| There's no time for other heroines so what can we expect in the next episode? Only one other route? |
Ii tenki desu ne... |
| this show gets ecchier by the episode! well this really seemed like the last episode even tho i know its not. i wonder where its going to go from here... |
| D'awwww! What a sweet ending to this episode! x3 I thought this was already the last episode with that confession between Kazuya and Haruka. :P Yet there are more girls in the series who need more focus. I wonder how will this series end... |

| Cute arc, but way too short. Score up to 7/10 after this. Wont get any better though. The omnibus storytelling really sux in my opinion, cheap and cheesy. Whatever, still better than Gargantia currently. And that says a lot. |
| Great episode... |
 |
| SO MUCH PLOT |
| Awesome episode for Haruka. Good job Maeda-kun to man up to touch the girl he loves, but also overcome his past fears and confessed to her. Albiet rushed, felt it was a great conclusion to Haruka's arc. Can't wait for the other girls. |
| Well.. seems like is an omnibus (i don't see any other way the could fill other 6 episodes) but... iv'e been more moved by other declarations. In comparision with Amagami, TWGOK and even Shuffle... this was... bland... |
| I see alot of people are saying its going to be omnibus but I believe it wont be I think they are just going to go into some detail about each person with him still being with Niimi and maybe have her join in on some of the things. For as much as i would like this to be a 24 ep Omnibus which i would love quite a lot I feel like this one wont be able to do a 12 ep one correctly and could end up ruining it. IMO |
 |
| It felt like a last episode. And it's only halfway through. But this story "will you marry me if i become cute" was lame. Quintasan said: SO MUCH PLOT I loled so hard ;D |
| how this going to work now the remaining 6 girls get 1 episode each or 2 for 3 girl and the rest are ONA like Oreimo? |
Quintasan said: Talking about plot every single time you watch an anime can only lead to unnecessary comments like this.SO MUCH PLOT |

| This was a decent episode for an anime adaptation of the same name. I was really watching this just for the LuLz but after seeing some good mediocre scenes and etc..., i just want to see more of it. So this was actually planned to be omnibus like Amagami SS? Oh, Yes, Thank You, Finally a successor to the series. The thing is, will there be enough episodes left for the material to be animated? I mean theres only 6 eps left. They should cover it all, I mean all the girls routes. One thing, Will the student council president have an arc on this? I'm pretty curious. She's one of the best here of all the girls. |
| Amagami like I guess. Still it was poorly done. All the dram of the 5th episode disappeared with only the introduction... |
 |
Arlia said: Amagami like I guess. Still it was poorly done. All the dram of the 5th episode disappeared with only the introduction... The drama was stupid, but I agree that resolving it that quickly was probably not the best move. I hope the next girl's route will be more intersting than this one. |
| So...what are they gonan do now? I hope they won't just leave out any more details about their relationship in the future now that this arc is finished. Really guys, what do you think? Will the relationship stick? I really hope so because this episode was just sweet :-) |
 |
| Next stage: sex. |
 |
| Aahah this show. |
 |
| Nice epiosde.... But it could have been better. |
| I think it's weird that they make up and be a lover that fast, it makes the whole fighting and screaming from the previous episode looks overexaggerated. But at least the fanservice is as great as ever ^^ |
 |
| So... "alt + I" all the chapter |
