ChexGuy 13 Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 This is one of those series where I think it's somewhat boring but don't care because I still enjoy it. Music is nice too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

killerinsidee 14 Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 (edited) Ep 20 - meh filler episode, nothing special happened in this one either. It seems that valentine's day will be the last ep, but I'm not hoping for much. To me it doesn't seem like it will end next week, too bad it will.

desi 53 Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 Yep, another filler. This show was obviously never about plot, but character interactions. Kyoani with the huge tease... that was a perfect chance to cuddle Ibara looked kawaii as hell. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dan. 11 Posted September 3, 2012 Author Share Posted September 3, 2012 Another filler And next week is clearly another filler too KyoAni has let me down. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
killerinsidee 14 Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 KyoAni has let me down. Unless something insanely epic happens in the last 5min of the show, same here. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Zaig 10 Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 Unless something insanely epic happens in the last 5min of the show, same here. Or at the very last second, like a season two announcement. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dan. 11 Posted September 9, 2012 Author Share Posted September 9, 2012 (edited) There is appaently one more episode after ep. 21, for a total of 22 episodes in the season. It will probably be more disappointing filler, but at least it's something, right? Edited September 9, 2012 by Dan. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dan. 11 Posted September 10, 2012 Author Share Posted September 10, 2012 (edited) OK, now that i've actully seen the episode: Worst. Episode. Ever. I hate all that dumb Mayaka stuff that they put in the show. And this one was 100% dumb Mayaka stuff. It was sooooooo obvious who the culprit was. I just didn't like this ep at all. The next ep is just another regular filler ep like all the rest, it seems. Oh, and Mayaka with a slightly different haircut: I think she looks better like this; her "current" haircut has always looked dumb to me. Edited September 10, 2012 by Dan.

desi 53 Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 I didn't mind this episode. They finally addressed something that we knew all along. It was apparent from the beginning of the season that there was something stopping Satoshi from making a move. I'm glad that this isn't the last episode and that MAL was wrong with the episode count... this episode as a finale would have been really weird. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
killerinsidee 14 Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 I actually liked ep 21, sure it was a filler but it had some character development/background for a change. I liked the part when Chitanda and Ibara were in the chocolate shop, a funny reaction from Chitanda. Guess we'll see next week how they'll wrap it up (unless there's episode 23...). PV just shows Oreki on a bike so there's not much to go on. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
VNHunter 12 Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 Can anyone tell me how many episodes left before Hyouka finishes this season??? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
desi 53 Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 Can anyone tell me how many episodes left before Hyouka finishes this season??? One episode left. Next week is the finale. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
VNHunter 12 Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 One episode left. Next week is the finale. next week??? at last... I can DL it by next week... no OVAs??? specials??? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
desi 53 Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 next week??? at last... I can DL it by next week... no OVAs??? specials??? Well, there is an OVA.. episode 11.5.. the quality is pretty shit though since it was streamed.. so you're going to have to wait for the bluray releases for a good quality of that. After the first season, they may or may not do an OVA. I don't think anything is set in stone right now... but it probably won't matter much for the plot anyways.

Unless there's an another ep after, everyone pretty much thought that this week's ep was the last. I'm starting to think that ANN was right and it actually has 24 episodes. Edit: The official site has only 22 eps listed - http://www.kyotoanimation.co.jp/kotenbu/story/22/. Guess it's the last then.

Dan. 11 Posted September 17, 2012 Author Share Posted September 17, 2012 Last episode sucked. Oreki has changed because he's actually doing something bothersome of his own free will. And the reason he did it was for Chitanda. And at the end they implied he has feelings for her. People were hoping for all these things and they actually happened, so it should why did I say it sucked? Because it was all so predictable and boring. Chitanda is pretty and Oreki gets embarrassed looking at her - it's already happened in every episode. There was nothing new in this episode. And they just crammed a mini-mystery in there because this show is supposed to be about mysteries, but it was just bad. It was obvious and stupid. I didn't especially dislike this episode or anything, but it's just disappointing because it could have been so much better. Oh, and it was definitely the last episode. There won't be any more, unless they make an ova or something. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ChexGuy 13 Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 OVA is supposed to come out with the BDs in January. This last episode was so disappointing compared to the previous one, though I might be biased because the previous episode contained Virtual-On. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I didn't especially dislike this episode or anything, but it's just disappointing because it could have been so much better. I disagree... I really enjoyed the ending. I liked how Oreki immediately understood why Satoshi was reluctant to accept Mayaka's feelings after his own "confession" to Eru. In the previous episode, we see that in his exchange with Satoshi that he never really understood what Satoshi was going on about despite claiming that he did. Satoshi believes that dating Mayaka will change him back to the person he once was, whereas Oreki believes that admitting he admires Chitanda will go against the motto he's lived by his entire life and shift things from grey to full-on rose-colored. He does want a rosy life...he just hasn't fully accepted that yet. This was seen through his inner monologue during the doll ceremony where he felt that he didn't belong there and even regretted coming while he walked along with the rest of the procession. Even after saying that, he couldn't help but enjoy himself and spent the whole time longingly gazing at Chitanda, hoping to catch a glimpse of her. Regarding Chitanda, her future is already set in stone and you could see that she was being apologetic about it. I think that this shows that she is just as afraid of Oreki and Satoshi about her own feelings. She admires Oreki and doesn't want to chain him to a girl who's chained to such a boring place. Right at the end though was a very awesome moment. When the wind blew the cherry tree's leaves, just for a moment, the place became the most beautiful and the one that had the best potential. Just as Oreki imagined it a few seconds ago, it suddenly became the most perfect place there was for the two of them. I thought this was done in a very unique way instead of the whole get together in the last 2 seconds and kiss scene. Bravo to Kyoani. Isn't that just the ova that already came out? Yeah, that's the OVA that was streamed in shit quality. Maybe we'll get another OVA in the future. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
