I just looked up who her voice is, and now I just want to hug her and tell her everything is going to be okay.

Kayano Ai always plays the doomed ones, doesn't she?

I guess so, she's had some pretty good roles though. She was kanade in chihayafuru, ai in BSP, mei in Say I Love You..

This episode was the best but the highlight for me had to have been Saijou showing up again. That was just the cap for me, I was so happy.

That was great, even if it was brief, but the highlight for me was Yamato's impossible perfect giant super chocolate. That thing looked both insanely delicious and insanely difficult to make. And Yamato made it while also leading a bunch of other girls in their chocolate-making. At this point if she becomes anything but a baker/sweet maker she's wasting a talent that's very nearly as impressive as any physical feat Takeo's pulled off.

Second place goes to Suna's drive-by good for you.

That was great. I thought Suna was in top 'best boy' form this episode. Swanning around, flaunting his bestness everywhere, shameless. Retrieving Takeo's bag after it gets flung away, his little good-natured put down after Takeo lets the other guys join in on Valentines Day, he kept stealing scenes... I like how they handle his disinterest in the other girls so far and I'm pretty excited to see if the show's going explore more that before it ends.

Outside of my apparent crush on a fictional character, what an exuberant and fun episode! Takeo's VA's throat must be killing him! Ore Monogatari: Now features some of the most intense kiss blowing seen in action!

Yeah, I'm that guy.
Half of me is just waiting for Suna to come out of the closet, but I know that he doesn't like most girls because they're jerks to Takeo-kun.

Kurihara was just chillin' in the manner of a thing that just totally chills this episode. That was probably my favorite part, along with Saiju's obligation chocolate gag.

Anyway I'm really hoping the best for Suna next week. Kinda hoping glasses girl doesn't have a crush on Suna but I'm sure I'll be happy no matter which direction this goes.

I had to pause the show here for some uncontrollable laughter. I did some voice work on Saint Seiya as Virgo who's all about being an incarnation of the Buddha and the artists on that show had dozens upon dozens of scenes almost exactly like this, only Virgo is skinny, blonde, and pretty.

Thought this was a fairly weak episode, particularly in terms of animation and writing. Maybe the premise was just a bit too flimsy after the whopper of the birth episode - there was absolutely zero tension regarding whether or not Big Tak was going to get his chocs. I thought that Yamato's friends looked pretty off-model in a lot of frames, too. I know there have been a few episodes with variable art quality, but this was the first time I've really noticed it.

Still very enjoyable overall, and I'm intrigued by Suna's admirer.

Takeo's dad gets transferred to another city, so he and Yamato learn karuta from Suna and all promise to meet each other in the national championship someday.

The only thing that could make this show better would be Takeo saying crazy english phrases like Joseph Joestar

Most live action based on manga does, be a while before the home version is out I guess though.

If you've already read the manga and watched the anime it's not like it's going to take a huge amount of figuring out.
