The broken notes spilling out during the fight was lowkey one of the best visual moments in the series 😭 it instantly exposed Taiga’s feelings without her having to say anything.

Sumire’s explanation adds a lot of depth to her character. Instead of rejecting Kitamura because she doesn’t care, she does it because she DOES care, which makes the situation way sadder.

Taiga pulling up with a wooden sword was insane 😭 but the episode actually uses that chaos to finally unpack Kitamura and Sumire’s relationship properly instead of dragging the misunderstanding forever.

This episode shows a lot of character development on Kitamura after knowing all his inner struggles. Taiga and Takasu-kun's effort paid off. "The thing you wish for the most is something you'll never get. ". So much realization on this passage. Such a touching episode.

This really leans into how messy everyone’s relationships have become, and it’s honestly hard to look away. Feelings are overlapping, unspoken, and sometimes completely misunderstood. No one seems fully honest, even with themselves, which just makes everything more complicated.

A emotional episode that gave us mixed feeling. The episode greatly conveyed each character feelings and emotions amplified by great soundtrack and amazing voice acting. The pacing was perfect as we see the end of Taiga's love and foreshadowed us on what is next.

Best episode so far, in my opinion. I love everything of it and cry a few tears... it made me wish I could be as generous and compassionate as Sumire. I genuinely feel sad for Kitamura. That battle scene was really insane.

Taiga decides it’s time to make progress with her feelings, dragging Ryuuji along to help with her latest plan. Their teamwork leads to plenty of awkward and funny situations, while hinting that things between them are slowly changing.
