Just started watching this anime after finishing Toradora - just on episode 3, so I've still got a long way to go. Just noticing that Tada and Koko sure have trouble with names. It's probably nothing, right? (Probably a plot point...)

Have watched both series and noticed Kouko’s conflict towards the end was honestly quite similar to the one in the BSG movie; both girls have to face that their lovers have unfortunate fates but they take different approaches

What do you guys think Kouko would have done in Mai’s shoes

Golden time was my first anime ever. I admire my anime watching journey and am currently enjoying OP. But when I look back, nothing but nostalgia hits me hard. Golden Time is such an amazing yet simple anime and I am glad it was my first. I really admire the style the art work and the VAs aswell.

Now that I realise it was not the anime that I admire ( tho it is such an amazing one ), I really miss those days of anime when it was simple yet fun when you didn't have to worry about your job or stuff.

Hey guys: Just finished the anime recently and there is this piano piece I think playing in episode 12 when banri and kana are arguing or should I say putting back the pieces of their relationship together 😅 If u know it let me know thanks again.

I just finished Golden Time, holy, the last episode had me wanting to stop watching, I thought it was going to be a bad ending, my heart was hanging by a thread

The last episode and the episode where >!Kouko catches Banri and Linda in that club so close together with the pink light stick in their mouths, I thought for sure that would be the end of Banri and Kouko so I actually paused it right in that moment and I couldn't watch it, eventually I did though lol!<

But overall this anime is amazing, Toradora is one of my favourites and I can definitely see why people recommend Golden Time to Toradora enjoyers

Does anyone know something of a guide to get any of the 100 point endings from Golden Time Vivid Memories, I'm thinking about buying the game and getting several of the endings.

I was wondering about this question a lot of years, i think about the fact Banri and Kouko (and company) were studing at law school in Tokio, Fukurai University, and i supposed that they was graduated several years after the end of the anime. I guess that Kouko and Banri are a happy marriage with two children or more , and probably Banri is a succesfull (and honestly ) lawyer, and Kouko is very very beautiful Judge of supreme court of Tokio (Kouko in three chapters of the manga wears lawyer clothes), what do you think?

So, the most beautiful girl in the universe, Kouko Kaga, has decided, as a rich woman, she don´t need to wake up early, and smashing the poor Tada Banri´s Clock

Did she took martial arts class at childhood or something?

They took it off crunchy roll and I wanna watch

Hi all..so I am here to share my thoughts about Golden time. I just discovered reddit page of this anime so bear with me.

This anime was the first anime I watched as proper anime and not a cartoon as anime is called from where I come. Today marked the day where I watched this anime 10th time in 1 year..this is how much I love it. Still brought me tears today(happy tears guys). In 1 year I have watched over 150 different anime but still I can't get over this anime.

I just wanted to write this because I feel like this anime has been one of the most underrated animes ever. Also I don't know why but I just wrote this so bear with me.

Thank you for showing all this love to this anime and thanks yuyuko takemiya for giving me memories of lifetime. Now wish to find a girl like kokou so ican watch this complete anime with her.

Thank you for hearing me rant :))

I think almost everyone has had a crazy ass Gf like Koko, over the top, annoying, and cute!

I thought this was just gonna be another mid anime that I'll watch and forget, wasn't familiar with your game GT, I'm sorry. Since this anime is pretty dated,any anime(esp new ones) with the same genre/vibe?

P.s. Rip AnimeSuge. Didn't know you were the best streaming site til I tried others today. I'll miss those I interacted with on Disqus

For me it has to be Banri saying „this isnt mine” right before the mirror broke… it was just so emotional 😭

"It's as if I'm fighting with my past self over the person called Tada Banri."

Golden Time.

What a wonderful series. It was such a wonderful experience. There are countless anime where the story is set in school, but there's only a few that are set in college/ universities. Golden Time is one of those. And it's somewhat different from the general animes.

At first, I thought it gonna be a basic drama. However, once I started the show, I couldn't drop it. The supernatural element, aka the Ghost of Banri, as one might be a bit odd, but I later found out it was taken from Japanese belief.

Banri's story was simply magnificent. It was heartfelt. His struggle to understand what is happening, to discover about his past, to learn who he really is. Was something that I really liked. The whole story was remarkable from start to finish. It was emotional, funny, and heartwarming.

Kouko Kaga's character was great. At first, her character was annoying, but as the story progressed, I started to see more of what the character really has. Her characteristics are funny and emotional, too. Her wits and whims were so funny and sometimes saddening that all she wanted was to be good for Banri. Everyone dreams of having someone like Kouko, don't they?

Linda's character was also great, though I wish there were some choices that she hadn't made, but that was part of the story. Her character added the depth to the story, a pivotal character that helped the two Personas realize their place. The characters of Yana, Oka, and Nana were wonderful. Everyone needs friends like them. And 2D-kun was literally the best wingman anyone could've asked for. His character was quite underrated, not gonna lie. Though Yana and Linda's characters had a hint of progression, I felt sad for Oka. i, for the most part, thought Oka and Yana would end up together, but that just never happened. That just made me sad.

"The present is ending. Here, countless versions of our past selves are always crying, laughing, falling in love, getting hurt, joking around, feeling happy, and suffering. These feelings are born all the time, and in the next moment, they become the past and die. It's over now. This is the end, but the truth is that everyone's time is like that. Right after it's born, every moment becomes the past and dies."

I personally loved the ending. I just wish there was more of it! Wish there was more after that, I just felt empty after finishing the series. The ending was satisfying, not only that it was heartwarming. Kouko and Banri's relationship's development was done so greatly. At first, someone might have thought that Banri would ultimately end up with Linda again, but the norm was broken. He chose the one he loves. And frankly, those two are the best together, meant for each other as they say.

The feeling of emptiness after finishing the anime is something I can not describe. Binged watched the entire series without 24 hour-ish. It's totally worth it. Had a wonderful time while watching.

So i decided to watch it because i was looking for a cure for the post Toradora depression but i actually found out it was from the same creator after i finished watching it. Damn that was sooo gooood. I was devastated for the final few episodes though because i didnt know if it was actually going to end up with Kouko and Banri together. It was sooo tense in the end and i started crying when the damn mirror broke. I think that the ending was better than Toradora, but the characters were more fleshed out in Toradora. One thing that bothered me the whole time was that Banri never told Kouko about his memories returning and left it for her to find out causing them to break up😖

No matter how many times I watch the final episode, when that mirror breaks....... 😭😭😭😭😭😭

Like as in the MC has a disease or a problem

Just finished this anime and I swear what a wonderful anime it was the ending especially was just absolute wholesome!! Although at the beginning of the anime it was feeling kinda boring and more like a drama rather than rom com I was not really in mood to finish this but still kept going and I'm glad I did that worth it!!

The MVP was 2D kun fr absolute goat literal wingman fr!!

Now to the question is would you explain me the last episode scene where linda says yes to ghost banri? how did she know about ghost banri? Or it was just in his imagination?

Just finished it, and man that was hard. But in a good way. The concept of Banri, and really everyone, dealing with the “death” of his current self was heavy. Happy with the ending, it definitely was the healthiest way with how the story played out. Linda is the mvp tho, to put her feelings aside and support Banri. I just finished masamune-kun’s revenge (again) and I can think of a character there who probably wouldn’t do the same thing in the same situation LOL. Point being, i feel like in rom anime’s, there’s frequently a push for characters to make sure their feelings are heard out. But in Linda’s case, she stuffed it the whole time. I’m actually a big fan of childhood friends winning in rom anime’s (often disappointed T_T), and would have been happy if there would’ve been a way for Banri and Linda to work out. But ending was still good and had me in the feels. My main questions: It wasn’t clear to me if Linda was actually there on the bridge scene. To me, my first Interpretation was that whole thing went on in Banri’s mind. if she was there, did she hug and confess to the real Banri, but Banri (and/or the viewers) perceive it as Linda hugging ghost Banri to help that part of him move on?

Here’s how I wanted S2 to start:

1. The group got graduated.

2. Banri & Kouko officially get hitched, bought a new apartment or house in the countryside maybe, & Kouko gets pregnant after a few months later.

3. Linda & Yana might fall for each other. (Might)

4. 2-D gets better with his jokes & becomes a comedian

5. Oka has become a photographer right after graduation.

6. Nana becomes a metal musician.

7. Banri & Kouko finally have a child in the last scene.

Now what are your opinions?
