Status of soul: shocked. With the secrets revealed this week, I’m actually pretty confused/angry rather than emotionally moved. But in terms of the story alone, we get lots of new answers — many of which were unexpected. And it only intrigues me further as to how this series will end. All righty then … given the [...]

As the episode title hints this time the story evolves around Yui. I wouldn't have expected her story is that much linked with Hayami's. That's also the reason we not only get to know Yui better but the truth behind Hayami's past. Yui stays an unbearable character after all, but she showed some heart and I felt the scene at the burned house when she was screaming and crying rather intensive and touching. Actually I can't find any information about the number of episodes we can expect, but I think it's going to be about 12 or 13, which means we are halfway through and as mentioned hayami's story is revealed. So waht's going to come now? Otoha hinted Hirose's time is almost up, what else can he do for Hayami now she regained Hinata as a friend and at least a bit of Yui's respect?

[ Episode 6: Yui ] It looks as if my interest has been saved from extinguishing! No longer is it morbid curiosity but now I’m actually looking forward to seeing what happens from hereon out! That said, I had expected that ‘dumbass mentally’ had something to do with the hatred Hayami was receiving. I’ve seen that [...]

Yui gets agitated that Hinata is now being friendly with Hayami, which she still continues to detest.

Status of soul: warming up. More people are forgiving Hayami now .. or at least finally thinking about the present rather than being upset about a past they no longer have control of. The fanservice is toned down, and more story is fleshed out, which is the way I prefer it. This week’s episode is [...]

That’s what she said! (Sorry, I just couldn’t resist) Well, it took me awhile to watch this thing because of how it focused on my least favorite character, Yui. However, some of the good writing from last week carried onto this week’s episode, which altered my views on her just a little bit. Unfortunately, nothing [...]

H2O ~footprints in the sand~ is one of the few series of Winter season that haven´t failed my expectations. In fact, it have surpassed them with a good drama and Hinamizawa-like atmosphere. But the best thing of H2O is no-one else than our lovely trap, Hamaji Yakumo. This is a tribute to he.

My opinion: With episode 1 and the protagonists being a girl that's beaten by her classmates and a blind boy who tries to help H2O ~Footprints in the Sand~ gave us a promise. A promise to be different, to be mature, interesting. From time to time there are hints again what this show could be, for example with Hinata's dead little sister or her kiss with Hirose. In that moments the atmosphere of the show completley changes and I'm sitting in front of the TV thinking "yes, that's it! that's what you promised, give me more of it!" But then I get disappointed each and every episode again. This time we had the oh so typicall beach and swimsuit episode combined with the oh so typicall annoying "I want my brother/sister for me alone"-child! I tried to take the show for a normal one, but than the humour isn't strong enough like in the scene with the knife. This was supposed to be funny, but it wasn't, I mean, it's a damn knife. Trying to kill someone is just NOT funny! And again to the end of every episode there's this awesome cliffhanger which makes me watch more of this stupid show, so I continue watching, and continue, and get annoyed every time again. Argh, it's a bother! So off to episode 5 for more Yui stupidity and unbearable out of place fanservice!

Yeah, this wasn’t a filler after all. Flavor: Sweet So, basically… Hirose, Hinata and Hayami were going to have their first friendly Nerine-style tamagoyaki meal together when, as expected, Yui arrives and starts a bitch fight with Hinata, ruining lunchtime. Later, Hayami and friends go to the city where they meet Yui and gang once [...]

So, now that Hayami and Hinata made up, it’s time for Yui’s turn. Despite my expectations for it to be a boring episode, it was actually quite an important one, since it reveals the reason of why Hayami is despised by the villagers. It turns out her family were doctors and they extorted a lot of [...]

[ Episode 5: Kagura ] I guess one would call it ‘morbid curiosity’ when I answer the question “Why are you [still] watching H2O?” with a weird hand gesture. Besides that there’s really nothing pulling me towards this show except for Hayami. Let’s admit it, that reunion at the end of the episode was nonsense or [...]

Hirose tries to deal with Hinata’s confession, thinking there is something deeper behind all of this and tries to get Hinata and Hayami to talk together.

My thoughts exactly Takuma…my thoughts exactly… Two weeks since my last post and I have returned! All my efforts in studying for tests were futile though. With my great luck, my calculator ran out of batteries 10 problems in so I had to cancel my scores. Regarding the anime however, these two episodes were the [...]

Rating: 7/10 Impressions: I wonder how many people are still watching this show…and how many will follow it to the end. Once you get used to it, the show isn’t that crap. I still say that Hinata is a bitch and Hirose is a sissy, who can’t say no to anything. This episode itself isn’t that bad, [...]

01) Why does Hayami still bother with school? Was she secretly pining for a reconciliation with Hinata? 02) Will Hinata now move to Hayami’s abandoned trams and set ablaze the imagination of doujin artists? 03) Shouldn’t the townsfolk be burning down Hamaji’s place for the numerous boys that fapped, realised and suicided? 04) Did imouto-Hotaru kill herself [...]

Takuma-kun manages to patch up the relationship between Hayami and Hinata, after advice from Otoha. On the way, we also discover that his family is actually a pretty influential one and Hinata’s grandfather wanted to tie the two families together using Hinata. Wonder what’s next on H2O. Will Hinata and Hayami have hawt yuri relationship [...]

Flavor: Sweet Didn’t think we’d get a reconciliation this soon… I was expecting to see some more Hinata vs. Kohinata catfights before we got to that. So, after this, I still don’t like Hinata, but I guess I can’t really hate her for being so mean to Hayami since she was acting like that mostly due [...]
