Well Anego is suppose to show up there, so it's not a problem. Besides, from that screen (in the bedroom), the only extra person we see there is Rin, her being involved more is perfectly fine with me. I wasn't very fond with how little the VN showed Rin interacting with Komari. Refrain will have a much stronger impact during the scene between those two IMO, it felt just a tad forced to me.

The screen with the group together, we don't really know what's happening there, so I'm not going to assume anything. The question is, what are they even talking about? I don't remember Komari's route too well.

Then again...for some stupid reason anime Riki already seems stronger than the VN's first playthrough right off the bat which is kinda annoying.

But again, haven't seen the episode yet so I can only speculate.
I agree with you. Since it also related to how Komari's picture book told that "the boy and the girl try to help 8 dwarfs go out of forest, the girl try to befriend and the boy try to solve their problem (5 of them solve problem by finally become boyfriend... lol) ".

But I still believe that finally it will be only Riki and Komari in the climax. Maybe the scene with Kyousuke and the gang just only he gather them and try to hint Riki doing something for Komari. Nevertheless, we will know tonight what happen.


P.S. still wonder how they are going to put everything in just 1 eps. Since there are also additional scene for LB groups.

I just finished watching episode 6 and I have to say that I really thank JC Staff for keeping most of the LB! members out and pushing Riki to help Komari. It felt like everyone was not helping out on purpose (which it is) and Kyousuke was pushing Riki do help Komari by himself. I also liked how Rin tried to help as well.

I didn't like how that was shoehorned in the end. It had symbolic connections, true, but unlike most of the other story elements sprinkled throughout common/heroine routes, that was in my opinion too blatant.

After watching ep6, I strongly believe that the 26 eps wouldn't be end with Refrain. If they are going to give each heroine for at least 3 episode and the pattern for girl of the week just like next 4 episode summary do, then it will really be around 24 eps already.

Komari's Arc in the anime could still be better. I didn't mean to put more scene but adjust the behavior in some scenario. (Like in ep6, with the scene that Komari dropped her picture books into the wet floor, if the anime stick with the VN that rain is falling and Komari's face shows how her mental is seriously breaking down, this will be more emotional for sure).

Next episode, the debut of Kanata, and in the anime I bet she will be the selected roommate for Kud.

There's a problem with this:

Well in the VN Kengo's the one that shows up at the cemetery...so one can only assume that it's him in the anime as well.

Plus, blue clothing+white umbrella. That shade of blue matches his gi.

If you look closely beneath the umbrella, you can see a patch of blue that is darker than the surroundings. I'm assuming that's Kengo's clothing.

It was never directly said in the VN why Kengo was there at the cemetery, but the assumption is that he was there to "check up" on Riki. Remember, Kengo was very protective (though it didn't really seem that way until much later) over Riki in the artificial world. We also assume that Kengo was checking on Riki's progress, so to speak.

That scene was really brief. While Riki is talking to Takuya's grave (I think that's his name. I'm ashamed of not knowing it for sure ) he has a sudden reaction saying: What was that? I thought I saw a person. It looked like Kengo, but what would he do here? Or something among those lines. We never actually see Kengo and that moment is never mentioned again. I'm happy that someone noticed him, this is a moment I'm wanting for the anime to explain, since it was never really explained in the game and all I can do is assume.

There's two theories that I know of:

A- He was there to keep tabs on Riki and make sure he's safe and on the right track;
B- He was there visiting another grave, possibly of the archery club girl he could not save in real life.

Or they could both be true. Since I'm here to keep an eye on Riki, why not visit Koshiki's grave as well? Or: I'm here to visit Koshiki's grave, but wait, isn't that Riki? What's he doing here? I need to keep an eye on him. Pointless post is pointless...

But... She didn't die?

In the dream world. In real life she's dead. So her grave might be there, given how the world has it's flaws as well (this could have been overlooked by Kyosuke).

I'm really liking the whole Anego thing in the Little Busters! I keep feeling that this is what really happened in the real semester (not the dream world). After all, it does make sense to think that Brosuke changed a couple of things
