Until now they are just 7 times the same girl with different wigs. XD Still I agree that a studio animating it should be able to keep track of who they are animating right now...or at least let the person stay the same person... Apart from the I really liked the episode, even though the art was seriously unstable this week. I've got no problem with moneysaving, but it's kinda distracting if a character looks 6 times different in the course of 20 minutes. Still it's nothing that would ruin this episode for me. Rosa and Maria scenes were very well done, I really felt the tension, and the scene that was pulled a bit forward fitted very well at this point. But I'm still unsure if next episode won't be a seriously rushed job, if they want to squeeze everything that's left in 5 episodes...because there's still so much to SAY especially...

I absolutely loved this episode. Ange's classroom scene and Sakutarou's ripping scene had good emotional impact. Rating 10/10 Looking foward to "I'm on a boat" (Ange Remix)

I know it has been mentioned before a lot of times, but it is tiring to death that 90% of the conversation in the episode thread veers around animation errors and meta discussion about the episode rather than, well you know, what actually happened.

Don't have all that much to say about this episode. I thought it was done really well, but it didn't particularly wow me. Two episodes in a row without seeing present-day Rokkenjima... *yawn* At least the VN interspersed the flashbacks and normal scenes somewhat.
Spoiler for review:
Overall...hm, hard one to judge. Episode felt pretty boring, but at the same time, I'm very pleased at how they adapted the necessary scenes. It just didn't make for a very exciting episode. The real good stuff begins next week, though, and this one definitely sets the stage for later events, so I'm satisfied. Will wait for subs to rate, to get a better feel for things like the conversation in the classroom, but I think I'll give it a 9. Animation was, er, wonky to say the least, but that doesn't typically affect my ratings, especially considering the Higurashi Anime is what got me into When They Cry to begin with. Everything was really well done - just boring (as was the VN during this part anyways).

Fantastic episode... barring some rather... monstrous breasts. Seriously, Ange looked like she was packing oppai missiles in her uniform. Should've used those to smack those St. Lucia bitches. Rosa's crowning moment of model parenting was really effective. I hate her there just as much as I did in the SN, even more so with the voice acting as well. Oh, and I'd like to say that this is also one of the moments where Maria's evil face is genuinely scary and effective when it followed up from all the drama that occured.

Hmmm... color me unimpressed as far as Kasumi's voice goes. Not only does she sound just like Kyrie, but the attitude seems to be completely different from what I imagined. I imagined her voice sounding more... taunting and sly... kind of like Eva or Takano from Higurashi (not that I expected her to be voiced by Miki Itou)... I don't know, I guess I'll just have to get used to it.
Also, I don't hate Rosa... I expected to be extremely pissed off at her and hate her a lot. But in the anime she seems pretty angry. In the VN I got the impression that she smiled and actually enjoyed crushing her daughter's dreams, which was what made me really sick while reading it... also, I kind of imagined Sakutaro actually being ripped apart while in human form... which I'm extremely glad wasn't animated. @_@;

Anyway, giving this episode an 8/10. -1 came from the lack of quality in a few scenes. +2 came from the parenting scene which was done well. Yeah, the Rosa hate comes back now.
