It reminded me a little of watching Chihayafuru, in that I had no idea why everyone is starry-eyed about this thing, but it managed to draw me in anyway.

i did really like the first ep, but have to agree with Sakura that the "master" isn't given a whole lot of material to show off why he's so great. up until he got expelled, i genuinely expected Yotaro falling asleep to be a sort of "this Master is actually just overblown" moment, and for Yota to go off and study Sukeroku style.

Notice the point that Yotaro fell asleep was also the point where Yakumo's story was about falling asleep. Yotaro was so into his story that he fell asleep himself.

While I didn't find the story that interesting either, little details like that sucked me into the story anyway. It made the rejection heartbreaking.

We have clear hints about what happens next but I am not prepared. This show is going to break me.

It's been a while since a show has left me completely enthralled and left me wanting more, for every episode. It's 3 outa 3 so far. I'm so happy.

It's also going to feel very awful when everything goes to poo poo :(

What do you mean less gay? It started out kinda gay and just got gayer with every scene. It was so good too! I love this amazing gay anime.

Please don't have a 'straight until proven gay' argument here tia

I'm pretty sure that this is a 'gay until proven straight' kind of show, in any case.

Yakumo and Miyokichi's relationship was sad in a really deep way. I'm kind of shocked that they pulled it off so well.

That probably won't happen, the first episode was actually the material from ovas released before the series began.

I deeply admire how this show can be so engrossing while also feeling very grounded, so I'm not really happy when it turns into something so melodramatic :(. I think the situation could have been even more gut wrenching without a tumble out the window. I still love the show to death, and the rakugo that made up the bulk of the episode was so so good. I'm gonna be so sad when a weekend comes and there's no new episode, I need season 2.

What the hell is this? :catstare: It said episode 13 in the end, there better be episode 13 next week.

I said a weekend not next weekend. I'm sorry to scare you I'm preemptively morning.
