Grr, Tomoya needs a good smack. A series of good smacks, with a nice, sturdy bat.

He started to get better in the middle, but...

No, no no no no. The bat it is! there is no other way.

Episode 17,......USHIO!!! Oh GOD she's so adorable! She's a splitting image of her mother, ya' know? And the giant anteater returns!! 8-)

Spoiler :
Five year time skip!!! And most of Tomoya's angst has been told in the first five minutes of the episode so that's a plus.

For the most part, it seems Sanae and Akio attempted to get Tomoya and his daughter to reconcile their rather distant relationship by leaving those two alone and go on a trip (Sanae's rather persistent "nagging" to get Tomoya outside his usual routines worked). Awkwardness ensues, but it's the little things that gave some hope in rebuilding their relationship like how Tomoya fixed up Ushio's broken toy turtle, and how they're eating rice together.


And the ED sequence actually FITS in this episode! :o

In all honestly I nearly became teary eyed just watching this reunion.

It looks like Tomoya isn't nearly as hopeless and in despair as in the movie. O think Ushio is older now too, since in the movie, she was really, really small.

Since the story is branching off from the movie's story, this ends the spoilers for me. From this point forward, everything is news to me.

I don't want her gone, I like the mini her, but I wanted to see her be a mom damn it.

I guess I am ok they did the fast forward as I was not interested in several episodes of 'coping with loss'.

Damn it watch anime to escape the truths of the real world too eh.

A funeral sequence would have been too much for me.

God-bloody-damnit.

I fucking hated this episode, yet at the same time was so grateful to have been watching it.

Spoiler :
I miss Nagisa /sobuncontrollably.

Yep, what's the point of turning a series into an after high school drama, if they don't retain the after high school couple?

Is living in Japan really that dangerous to parents" Ever notice how the 'parents' always seem to be missing because "oh they died when I was young".

Hmm maybe I just discovered the secret behind the dropping birth rate in Japan. Parenting is actually highly dangerous in Japan.

Yeah I guess that would make me scared of having a relationship with a real woman too.

18 is definitely a kleenex episode.

I am still sad she's gone, but it looks like he is finally dealing with it.

Damn that Ushio is cute. Makes me envious, I don't have a daughter myself.

x2, almost got to me (but not quite). It was close though (first season of EF still holds the title)

Didn't really know how they were gonna pull the rest of the series off after ep 16... but they're doing a bang-up job

episode 18 was so heart warming =D
brought lots of tears to my eyes, but i was smiling.

Spoiler :
im glad tomoya and ushio are starting to really bond. cant wait for the next ep when they go back to tomoya's father


whoa now i think about it, tomoya and ushio reminds me and my dad. After i was born my mom left to america so she can send us over as well. i'd mostly be with my grandma cuz of work but she would force my dad and me to go out on outings like tomoya and ushio did just to bond and stuff
