Yeah, I quoted some from the previous page



"I don't feel angry or sad about returning here. I want to fulfill my duty as a daughter of Chitanda family that has a leading position in North Jinde. In school I've been thinking about the ways to do it.
One is to make everyone wealthy by exceeding the competition and producing crops of high commercial value.
Another is to ensure that everyone won't become poor by having a good eye for strategic management and optimizing the production.
In the end I decided to choose the former. For that reason I chose science (as my specialty)."
Chitanda asked me, who wasn't able to say anything, again.
"Do you understand the main reason of my determination?"
"No..."
I started speaking when a thought crossed my mind.
"It's just I have a feeling the last one doesn't really suit you."
Chitanda nodded a little.
"Correct. Frankly speaking, cultural festival and anthology were a real turmoil. I realized that I caused Oreki-san a terrible inconvenience. I'm probably not suitable for company management."
That's right. I think so.
While sitting on the veranda, Chitanda spread her arms to the sky. The sky was already mostly dark and even few stars could be seen.
"Please look, Oreki-san. This is my place. How is it, there's nothing here except water and earth. People also gradually grow old and tired. Mountains are systematically planted with trees, but what about commercial value? I don't think that this is the most beautiful place. I also don't think that it's full of possibilities. But..."
Lowering arms Chitanda also cast down her eyes and muttered.
"I wanted to introduce it to Oreki-san."

At that time I received an answer to the question I previously held.
I was trying to say: "By the way, about that strategic management that you have abandoned, what would you say if I'll study it?"
But, what is this? I want to say it and yet, in fact, I feel that it's not possible to say it at all.
This is the first time something like this happened. Also, this experience became a big key to solving previously unsolvable question.
Now I knew.
Why did Fukube Satoshi break Ibara's chocolate?
In short, it feels like this.
In a rapidly darkening Chitanda residence, the thing I said was not the thing I wanted to say, it was a different word, but perhaps with the same motive.
Trying to seem as unsociable as possible, I said.
"It became cold, huh."
However Chitanda, looking slightly surprised, opened her eyes, and slightly shook her head while laughing softly.
"No. It's already spring."

Aku tak baca novel, mana lah aku nak paham konteks.

When I try to read that much text, I feel my lvl of Japanese is like this:

Aih? Quaz punya post dah hilang?

apa quaz buat? more hurr durr i dont like this animu?

Not really, lol. He was just poking fun at novelfags.

So I was rewatching the Juumoji arc. Then I really though to myself what a delicate story Hyouka is. There's beautiful sense of subtlety, and it's like puff pastry. Lots and lots of thin, fragile layers that crumble so easily. I guess an anime production like this can only really happen if the studio is genuine about what it's doing. Not many studios have that anymore, these days. It's a sad reality we face, I'm afraid.

Agreed. Many anime like to pour on melodrama like heavy sauce. Like sos and mayo at Kyro's Kebab. Spoil the flavour.

I like how Kyoani can use small amounts of screen time to add depth and dimension to all the side characters.

Sawakiguchi-san moe.

折木さんに、紹介したかったんです。

折木さんに、紹介したかったんです。

It's Newtype's September magazine which is published on August, If I'm not mistaken...

derp

Newtype Japan, though I don't know which issue is it.

Speaking of which, after looking at that ranking, I just realized Sink (Dog Days) entered into the top 10 ranks.

Added on September 17, 2012, 11:18 amSo the novel ends there? Or does the story continue?

Not posting the awesome individual sakura petals


goddamit tho, a good end to an underrated series ;_;


Eru x Oreki arc stops here. Volume 5 is written through the new member's POV. Author said novel will follow Eru/Oreki until after they finish college, so they will go back to them
>datfeel when you have to wait another 10 years for more novels.

Hyouka (the anime) is focused too much on Oreki and the chemistry between the members. If the anime brings in new member(s), I think it would be tricky to do it well without losing its charm.

We can only speculate unless KyoAni adapts it. But it's highly doubtful.

The best KyoAni OTP.
