The Chihayafuru Topic

Post by pofa »

It really needs its own thread. :)

I never thought karuta could be so emotionally charged. XD

I decided to start watching Chihayafuru after the DC karuta case was animated.
My thought after watching 643: Hey, isn't there an anime about karuta?". Then just like that, I decided to give Chihayafuru a try. :)

My thoughts after watching 2 episodes of Chihayafuru: This is so much better than any anime drama I watched last year. I'm so glad I decided to watch this ;D.




and why is such a belle? Chihaya is so beautiful that I want to punch her in the face >:D .... What?! No. I am not jealous at all. nope

Actually, there times when even I get stunned when they focus the camera on Chihaya :P. Just like the library scene with Oe in episode 6.

This looks interesting! There's a manga as well. I might read the manga first since I'm not in the mood to watch animes.

Reminds of Hikaru no Go. :D

Thanks for posting about this guys!

Taichi's getting to be a pretty compelling character. I felt for him when he lost to Nishida. :( Arata's going to have to have some serious screen time to compete with Taichi's character growth in his absence.

Speaking of that, I read that DVD sales aren't going well, which probably means the show won't get a second season. D:

Second season isn't improbable.

Am I a terrible person for laughing when Arata lost in the 3rd round?

@pofa: the dvd sales are fine

Nah, I'd have been mad if he'd swept it. XD

Am I a terrible person for laughing a little at how happy Taichi was to see him playing again?

man, I'm a little disappointed that Chihaya lost this match, considering that it was partially due to interference :I
