This episode just
came in sad. I understand Kaoru's feelings and my long waited appearance of Okamoto Nobuhiko's
character, Matsuoka Seiji, just stirred things up. Sakamichi no Apollon really doesn't disappoint.
The biggest impact
that this episode had given me is the appearance of Matsuoka Seiji (Okamoto
Nobuhiko).He may look really funny but he sure knows how to tame Sentarou.
Well, it didn't really took so much for him to get on Sentarou's good side
since they met through Yurika. Also, like what Kaoru said, Seiji sure knows how
to sweet talk everyone. Despite how funny I think he looks, I have a feeling
that he'll be a really interesting character.
Now Sentarou and
Kaoru's relationship are on another struggle. I wonder how will they resolve it
this time. I'm pretty positive that by next episode, everything will be fine.
Sentarou is a really nice guy any way. I believe that the only problem in their
relationship is that Kaoru just never tells Sentarou anything. It's sad that
Kaoru just keeps everything to himself. Aside from the fact that Ritsuko likes
Sentarou, it would have been good if Kaoru would share his thoughts to Sentarou
about how he feels about Seiji and all. Running away will just worsen their
relationship.
Hearing Kaoru play My Favorite Things in the piano was really
refreshing. I really like the movie The Sound of Music and that song was just
really great. BUT honestly speaking, I didn't like the sound when Sentarou
joined Kaoru's piano. Oh well. BUT the song in the soundtrack sure is pretty
good :3 I like listening to it.
In an overall look
on this episode, it had been pretty interesting. Despite the romance being
stepped aside for awhile, I really like how things have gotten another
interesting step: Kaoru telling Yurika that Jun-nii has been missing. After
Kaoru's jealousy over Sentarou's decision to join Seiji's band, he has decided
to go back to being alone. AND finally, looks like the long-haired guy drinking
by the bar is Jun-nii. I wonder where he has been all this time.
I sure can't wait
for the next episode :3
