The low-energy motto premise was really idiotic; from just that, I thought: "this guy is even lamer than Kyon". But the thing about solving puzzles, actual or induced, looks promising; or rather: the girl, the fact that it was all in order to keep alive the initial impression he made on her (and see again DAT FACE, while she seemingly, in his eyes, blooms like Saya), makes of this show a good enough bait...

21 episodes is a long way to go, though. Let's see what becomes of this.

Also, Bach is good and all, but: Air and Cello prelude in the first episode? really? was that a direct reference to Eva, is it a common practice to put those on japanese Highschool buildings, or they simply don't have much more "classical" references at hand? I bet they're gonna use Satie, at some point (not that I don't love him, but... you know).

Is it her eyes that's turning the immediate area into a hair garden?

What's with the funky resolution ?

I'll pick it up if they do Gymnopedie No1 (given that someone reports it, should it occur).

I can't stop thinking about it...

Its looks remind me of Denpa Onna more than anything else.

Has anyone else followed this? I've enjoyed it thoroughly...
Cultural festival is finally here, btw; they have to sell the Hyouka memoires.

Still following. Characters are nice but plot is kinda boring. I hope something interesting happens soon. Anyway good animation is reason enough to watch this.

I agree. The characters are nice...and Eru has really pretty eyes. But the rest of the show is pretty generic.

<---- I found this brilliant. I got the pun at the same time than the supporting characters, right before it was shown to Chitanda. For some reason, I was in shock... It somehow hit straight home.

Honestly, bitter as you might be, could you say no to this?

In the begin Oreki was SO COOL because he didn't care AT ALL. Now we can notice he is changing which is kind interesting.

Mayaka is so tiny.
Confirmed for best girl.

>>10644

She's my favourite as well. Chitanda is exhausting to watch, though maybe that's to help us feel empathy for Oreki.

Come on you guys.
Future predictor chan is obviously the best choice.

Well, another mistery's over. On with the next one.

>>10644
She looked damned pretty in her 2nd cosplay, alright. Her being so small... it does give me some chills.

So few episodes left. I get the feeling that they're going to be adapting book 5 into a movie.

-and so you did.

just one more episode to come...
ultimate goods are here.

this show is boring

>>11193

You are boring

>>11191

This guys expression never changes.

I'm not sure how many episodes are left, now.

I Think I understand him too damn well...

>>11275
Just one.

Nice finale, despite everything...
What a long and exotic way to fall in love.

Come on S2, go Clannad AS on me.

>>11309
Here I thought I was the only one who did this, saves me the trouble.

>>11309
That would be great.

>>11309
Too bad I think they are out of source material.

Still I think Hyouka was good. Mysteries or plot weren't very interesting but characters just were so good people and it made my heart feel warm.

I thought the ending was perfect; beautiful, subdued, and tiny bit awkward.
This was one of those series that I didn't realize how much I loved it until it was a couple of episodes away from ending. I just took it as a really enjoyable, if somewhat gimmicky, SoL series at first, but then Houtarou's development and his relationship with Chitanda came to the fore, and it had been woven so subtly into the series that it had quite an impact when it struck me how far it had come.

>Mysteries or plot weren't very interesting
Eh, I don't know; I personally found most of the mysteries uninteresting at first, but interesting in how they became convoluted and resolved. There were certainly some questionable ones, though, like their middle school teacher watching the helicopter.
