    It's been a while since (or have I ever actually felt it before in an anime?) I actually felt how the elders relied upon the sparkles of youth rather than being told so by the show itself. Great episode.

    Amazing Grace is the saddest song in the world after you've lost your fellow comrades. That made me tear up here, because I know how she feels.

    The horses and cows out of fruit for their ancestors is a ancient Chinese thing, methinks.

    Post-traumatic stress, survivors guilt, etc...didn't expect that in this thus far happy anime. Interesting. It seems like 12 episodes is going to be too short for this series watching it so far.

    I'm waiting for this series to pull an "Evangelion" on us and make this happy little world collapse. Also, does anyone know how many buttons are on a Waffen-SS tunic? Because I think they're wearing them.

    I really really REALLY do not want to see these girls have to go into a combat situation. I'm too attached to them at this point. >_<

    Such a brilliant episode. So much emotional punch in a show that could have just been K-On!: The Military Version. It's why I keep coming back to re-watch this series.

    Emotional stamina eh?.. Too bad i already drained all mines out from the previous anime I watched. Couldn't feel a thing T.T..

    I would love to see an episode that flashbacks to set up how the war started and what happened. Looked very interesting, also the show is great.

    I love that this show isn't just cute fluff (though there is a satisfying amount of that!) it doesn't hesitate to tackle tough subjects, even with the cover of these cute faces.

    never pessure a soldier to tell you what yhey went through it they dont want to. it will just cause them to think about it more and relive what happend.

    Obon festival huh? Just watched Kanamemo and they did the same thing, without the lanterns. I think its a good festival, much more touching then Halloween. Anyway, yea, Filicia has had it tough, but she is doing well it seems now. Still..

    I think it is really selfish of her to cry when Felicia has lost her platoon and is worried over that. It is really selfish for her to start crying like that. Sure Felicia didn't mind but I'd feel really bothered and guilty by it.

    Stupid advertisement, ruined the mood completely! I was about to cry and then a geico commercial turned on D: Sad sad ep

    Its pretty clear hat Filicia seems to be the only one who saw combat during the war and she seems to be suffering from some form of repressed PTSD. The poor girl I bet thats why she always seems happy shes bottling it up.

    A creepy but necessary back story turned happy at the end.

    This sort of stuff really makes we worried about the future. This anime could be a serious drain on emotional stamina. Too many episodes back to back could be overwhelming, sometimes even disturbing.
