[Anime] Kokoro Connect

Big shocker, they end Wangst: The Series with, you guessed it, wangst. Gotta love Inaba's oblivious hypocrisy. Real nice of Ms. "Lock myself in my room" to give a lecture on going it solo. Age thing is resolved after a corny speech, stupid reason for mom to keep Random Abuser around...God, I'm glad this over.

Great ending to that arc. Looks like the next arc, Michi Random, will be airing next year. I look forward to it. This was a great series.

Inaban route get!
Little sister kiss get!

always wanted taichi to get those two, and now he has them. these ovas have been to my liking

I'm really glad Taichi ended up with Inaba. The ending was great, and actually had a sense of closure. As my one major gripe, Iori was really fucking pissing me off practically the whole time. Thankfully she got over being a bitch at the end, but I just wish it had happened sooner. All in all, quite a good show. 8-9/10.

I'm pretty good with how the love triangle was resolved. It's hard to resist Dereban when she admits she masturbates to you and draws the position you two were having sex in her wet dream that she didn't want to end. On a more serious note, the "love" with Taichi was him falling for one of Iori's personas and Iori was in love with the idea that someone could love her. With that in mind, the switch from Iori to Inaba didn't seem so awkward coming from Taichi.

As for the plot... well, it took a hit this arc. Most grievously, the climax of the arc is Inaba getting kidnapped by conveniently placed school delinquent-rapists and moved to an equally conveniently placed abandoned warehouse. And we also get the vicious school girls where one turns out to be nice after all. Really? You really had to pile on that many cliches all at once? Also, I thought we already had gotten over the whole "Iori coming to terms with her multiple personas" thing.

I thought it was a decent enough show all around. It just fell into the trap of being overly dramatic multiple times.

so anyone read the novel version and watch the anime? I havent gotten around to watching it yet so I was wondering exactly how frustrating the Iori bit was the whole arc,

Having the big gap between 13 and 14 felt like it took the feel out of the story. I had forgotten about everyone's character details so I had to rewatch 12 and 13 to recall everything. That said, DereInaban stole the show. Like Zero said, I thought Iori's issue of not knowing who she was had been figured out in the last story. In hindsight this was the ending of it. Whether Taichi loved the true Iori or one of her faces had to be addressed at some point. If that battle for Taichi turned into a typical harem-anime thing it would really discredit the series. Given that as a possible alternative, this was a better way to handle it.

That said, the characters are well-developed even if the setup is cliched. As translations become available I'll continue with the LN's.

Once again this series delivered. Inaba ended kawaii as fuck, and in a way I'm kind of glad she ended up with Taichi at the end but I wanted Iori to be with him. The series kind of just brushed it off completely at the end. Either way, I loved this series. 9/10.

I really want to read the LNs now, I need more.
