I have no idea what exactly happened with this series. The first season was so incredibly cringe-worthy. And yet the second season is so good! It basically took everything that was good in the first season, and left everything that was bad behind. This episode yet again showed what a great series this turned into, both in terms of plot and romance.
Oh, and this show is so cruel in its cliff-hangers. I can’t believe it took me twenty-four episodes to figure this out. Every cliff-hanger makes you expect the worst, and yet in the next episode things progress naturally, rather than what people would be doing in a soap opera. Akira didn’t die, get into a coma, or anything. Instead, he just has to spend a few days in the hospital, and the development from this accident is mostly subtle, rather than really angsty and cheap. This episode too: Yuki walked in, in an emotional state, at Touya’s house. While he has Menou sleeping over. I was really looking forward to see how she’d react… and then the credits rolled. Even now, I have no bloody clue how the creators are going to progress this in the next episode. After all, we’ve only got two episodes left!
But yeah, this episode did mark the beginning of the end: you can see that the creators are working towards the ending of this series. The scandals surrounding Eiji (it was about his picture, wasn’t it?). It really looks like is agency is done for, and if this is the case then things are also looking pretty grim for Yuuki.
There are quite a few series that are going to end in the next two weeks. And really: aside from Aoi Bungaku, White Album’s ending is the one I’m looking forward to the most. Heck, I can’t help it. The build-up has been so good throughout the entire series. I have absolutely no idea how the creators are planning to end this thing. Out of all the upcoming endings, White Album’s is the biggest mystery to me. Again, aside from Aoi Bungaku, but that one’s special because I don’t even know what kind of stories it’s going to animate.
Rating: ** (Excellent)
The part where the girl was singing and some dude tells her to shut up because it was late…that was HILARIOUS!
I don’t know what Rina drank though in this episode but I think that guy in the hallway poisoned her. Did you noticed she dropped the cup and was coughing violently, makes me worry who would want to kill her? Out of competition, or just so that she’ll be removed from their lives? Just a few possible reasons why Rina was poisoned.
Anyone else find this series incredibly depressing as it goes on, there’s like no happiness anywhere.
This episode is utterly amazing,and makes School Days looks really pale in comparison to this.
Alright,all hells really breaks loose next week.
I hope they don’t kill off Rina, she was the only one that was not crazy. Like her brother and ex manager. I hope at least she stay on top. What about Yuuki? That girl is a wimp, why doesn’t she have all the hightlight instead Rina. I still dont understand the concept of White Album.
Does anyone know where to get that song “Secret Chaos” by that girl who got yelled at to shut up?
