It really needs its own thread.
I never thought karuta could be so emotionally charged. XD

I decided to start watching Chihayafuru after the DC karuta case was animated.
My thought after watching 643: Hey, isn't there an anime about karuta?". Then just like that, I decided to give Chihayafuru a try.
My thoughts after watching 2 episodes of Chihayafuru: This is so much better than any anime drama I watched last year. I'm so glad I decided to watch this

.
and why is such a belle? Chihaya is so beautiful that I want to punch her in the face

....
What?! No. I am not jealous at all. nope
Actually, there times when even I get stunned when they focus the camera on Chihaya

. Just like the library scene with Oe in episode 6.
Gah! S-stop doing that D:

This looks interesting! There's a manga as well. I might read the manga first since I'm not in the mood to watch animes.
Reminds of Hikaru no Go.
Thanks for posting about this guys!

Taichi's getting to be a pretty compelling character. I felt for him when he lost to Nishida.

Arata's going to have to have some serious screen time to compete with Taichi's character growth in his absence.
Speaking of that, I read that DVD sales aren't going well, which probably means the show won't get a second season. D:

Second season isn't improbable.

Am I a terrible person for laughing when Arata lost in the 3rd round?
@pofa: the dvd sales are fine

Nah, I'd have been mad if he'd swept it. XD
Am I a terrible person for laughing a little at how happy Taichi was to see him playing again?

man, I'm a little disappointed that Chihaya lost this match, considering that it was partially due to interference :I
