It airs at Sunday , 1:00 AM. Which would be 5 PM of Saturday in Europe or 8-11 AM in the US. I just create the thread a bit earlier.
p.s. Please don't rate an episode before it airs. Otherwise I'll need to close the poll until it's time, like it's done in other subforums.

Few more hours, and I get my True Tears fix. *rubs hands together in anticipation.* You mean there are premature voters among the True Tears fans?

Well, not exactly...what I'm saying is, instead of having to put in the extra effort of remembering which subforums require a closed poll before episode broadcast, and which ones don't, why not just close the poll for all subforums anyway? Saves brain power, if I may say so myself.

Seems so.

monir in the post below states a lot of good reasons. I add that since I usually open a thread just a few hours before the episode airs, it shouldn't cause all that problems. And premature votes go more against the individual, than the community, imho. And please, let this and monir's be the last posts on the matter. Further off topic comments will be deleted. Don't worry. Why should it be cancelled by the way? According to the normal schedule, it should have just finished airing.

Traditionally this is not my favorite genre but this show is proving to be an exception. Can't wait to see what drama ensues. Having all 3 girls have significant parts in each episode makes it more exciting than other shows that focus primarily on one girl at a time. Makes it feel more like a competition as each girl makes moves and countermoves. Hiromi and Noe both don't know about Aiko yet while Aiko has seen but not personally met Hiromi and Noe. It will be interesting to see if things can hit an even higher gear once that happens.

I spent the whole episode in a state of excruciating tension. I never knew what emotional high-wire act was going to come next, and which character's emotions were going turn in which way. And after a week of anticipation, this episode left me in a state of even greater anticipation for next week. No relief, lol.
Part of that feeling of tension and anticipation came from the actual plot events, but I think part of it was details of pacing. For instance the long pan up when Noe is coming on the second day, hoping to find Hiromi on the steps for lunch. We got: cooking the weiner-takos, pan up Noe to a sad face, pan up the steps to no Hiromi, all with a sad violin behind it. It's pretty clear now that Hiromi likes Shin, if it wasn't before. He's pretty bold, going into her room when he knows (or should know) that his mother hates the thought. He probably feels able to because he has, at least in a shallow way, given Hiromi up. But she: "He finally comes into my room, and to say that!?" I loved the idea of the same scene being repeated from two points of view, but I didn't get a huge kick from it because there didn't seem to be much more info in the second run-through. The friend's e-mail said that she would support Hiromi in trying to get closer to Jun. Personally, I am frustrated by Shin's apparent inability to see the glorious Noe "in that way." At least he has reached the stage of thinking of her as "not a bad kid." Jun is masculine and dangerous, but perhaps not in a bad way. We'll see, it appears, next week. "Sure I'll go out with her. She's cute, and I want you to date my sister." I didn't see any drop in animation quality, but this was the second episode to be done mainly in Korea, directed by a Korean, and with a Korean animation supervisor. I didn't get why Noe licked him. Her apparent surprise at his shock was inexplicable to me. And let me join the chorus of praise for the great ending. A cliffhanger with emotional depth.
