True Tears: Episode 11

March 17th, 2008 at 5:27 pm | Category: True Tears

Rating: 9/10

Impressions:

Uh oh, the part I’m most worried about now is Hiromi’s vengeful glare after informing Shin about Noe’s disappearance. I definitely hope the story doesn’t become highly unrealistic, like School Days, though a bit of fighting or angst wouldn’t hurt. I still have doubts that Hiromi will end up with Shin, but of course this is the path I would like the show to take. Perhaps the uncertainty at the moment is what’s creating a large portion of the excitement—even the well executed kiss-on-beach scene doesn’t wrap anything up. Ai making up with Nobuse was a quick and efficient way of concluding the two up, but also shows that they were never really in the heat of things.

I’m really not following the urgency behind Shin’s search for Noe after visiting the hen cage. Does he believe she is going to jump? That’s highly unrealistic, so I have no idea what he’s thinking (unless he cares for her THAT much). This is why it’s still quite unclear what’s going to happen with Shin’s romantic interests. Personally, I think he still holds Hiromi at heart, and only really saw Noe as a refreshing change of his usual every day life, and attracting him with the prospect of new experiences as well. The preview shows Noe trying to make Jibeta fly, and I foresee this as a perfect opportunity for her to get her tears back (with the dramatic sound effects and waves beyond the peer…)

    I pray for ShinxNoe but it’s most likely gonna be a ShinxHiromi anyway. The kiss scene at the beach was as if it was normal or something …

    No matter who Shin ends up with, this series has done an excellent job giving each girl a chance. Now that the whole We-might-be-siblings-act is over, I am actually rooting for Hiromi. She showing her realistic self now that she’s established her true feelings for Shin. But then there’s Noe, my original go-to girl and that sis-com brother of hers. I think Jun is really annoying at this point and it’s a good thing Hiromi mentioned that everything he tries to do is for Noe, not for him or anyone else.

    Good episode, and only 2 more left to conclude a hopefully well executed series. (Please, not like School Days, please…!)

    Honestly, how Hiromi told those thing to Jun, is abit, annoying. I mean, hell atleast tell him in a better tone.

    Hiromi is too bitchy. Bah

    On a random note, I’ve uploaded the preview of the show (RAW) which has voice actress interviews and production behind-the-scenes stuff:
