This was my favorite shot in the series

I think the following moments are even better because Chihaya doesn't even blink, usually that moment would be a trigger for romantic tension, but she is just completely fixated on the match...I love it

We should have a simulwatch thread of s1/2 in the lead up. Do they still do simulwatches in this forum, this is the only thread I've checked in the last 3 years

Let's not get greedy people, we will have plenty of years to pine for season 4 once season 3 is done

Sorry for bumping this thread without any news but I wanna get a Chihaya av, to support the website before it dies and because I've been using this Totoko av for years now. This is the vibe i was looking for, pulled a snip from the first OP:



but clearly needs to be edited down in some way, BUT I don't want to lose the yukata, calm demeanor, etc. I am also terrible at making avatars, so any help would be greatly appreciated. the space in here, basically:

Also worth mentioning that Season 3 got a date, will be premiering in April https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2018-11-12/chihayafuru-anime-3rd-season-reveals-visual-april-premiere/.139378 Somebody start the countdown timer!!!!

Wrapped up my rewatch in preparation for Season 3. I love this show, and especially season 2 for spending almost 3/4ths if the whole season on just 2 days of pulse pounding, heart throbbing Karuta drama. I can't wait!!!!

In Training

The only surprising bummer from watching again was that I forgot how much season 2 seemed to have been rushed or under production crunch, there's a stretch towards the end that's like, recap episode, 2 episodes of a match, another recap episode, match concludes

Episode 3 of this new season instantly became one of my favorite episodes of anime ever. I wonder just how many characters had speaking lines in just those 22 minutes. It was all the great parts of chihayafuru condensed into a single, screamingly tense match with a palpable sense of narrative history from every single person who piped in for 3 seconds to furrow their brow and talk about how cool karuta is

Also I still want to get a Chihaya av of her in a kimono...

I hope when chihaya inevitably makes it to a queen match they animate it Kaiji Pachinko style and spend 17 episodes to painstakingly show every single card that gets read

Sweet eppy this week. Glad arata's been getting more screentime and monologuing beyond his usual silently brooding presence

Morio Asaka doesn’t seem to be scheduled to do anything after this season so I’m hoping that they’re planning on getting a season 4 going next year.

Definitely my anime of the season.

That would be sick...
