Editorial Reviews

In the third three-episode volume of Sakura Diaries, the young protagonists continue to get themselves into ever more complicated romantic entanglements. Touma feels guilty after attacking Urara, but his cousin promises to forgive him if he stops pursuing Mieko. He can't, of course, and an angry Urara threatens to reveal his secret. Mieko has secrets, too, and when she tells Touma that she has a boyfriend, our lovelorn hero's dreams are shattered. He runs straight into Urara's welcoming arms, but there's still trouble brewing--Mieko is having second thoughts about rejecting him. The male characters in Sakura Diaries are idiots and the women are remarkably tolerant of them, but the show continues to be an entertaining romantic comedy, with the emphasis shifting toward romance as it approaches a conclusion. This anime contains some nudity and sexual situations. --Simon Leake

5.0 out of 5 stars Great New Addition, September 28, 2000

This review is from: Sakura Diaries (Volume 3) [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This tape is a perfect blend of the first two. It has the comedy of tape one and the drama of tape two. If you loved the first two tapes get this one now. The story is alot less heart tugging then two, but it actually has some mild nudity (like less then one min.) and I really think it wasn't needed. The show was fine without the nudity. All the characters are here and a fleshing out nicely. They are all holding there parts in the story (and Toma is turning into a Golden Boy). So if you like a sexy(minus the sex) romantic teen drama see this now.

This review is from: Sakura Diaries (Volume 3) [VHS] (VHS Tape)

After the freakish twist of the second volume, Sakura Diaries gets back on track with this tape. There are still some tense moments, but we are mostly treated to what made me love the series, humor and innocent sexuality. This volume ups the amount of nudity a bit, so this is definitely not for kids, but adult fans of Japanese animation should like this just fine.

2.0 out of 5 stars A kiss in the rain., November 26, 2003

This review is from: Sakura Diaries (Volume 3) (DVD)

The love triangles meet up with each other and feelings are revealed. Nothing really that exciting happens in these episodes, perhaps its a big set up for the final three episodes.

Possible spoilers...

Chapter Seven -- The Love Triangle
Touma finally apologizes to Urara and she asks him to bring her to an amusement park to make up. Touma calls Kieko and she tells him she wants to meet him face to face. When he meets up with her she's with Kashu who suggests they go on a triangle date. Komi and Urara look for Touma but find Akimoto instead who invites them out to karaoke. This happens to be where the other triangle date is taking place. Urara runs into Touma's karaoke room ... Touma's afraid she might give up his secret.

Chapter Eight -- Mieko's Confession
At the karaoke club instead of giving up Touma's secret, that he's really a cram student, she tells everyone that she's his little sister. Urara runs away and Komi and Touma chase after. Next morning Urara tells Touma she wants to meet that night at the ferris wheel. Mieko and Touma are finally alone and she tells him that she has a long distance relationship with another Keio student currently in Paris.

Chapter Nine -- First Kiss in the Rain
While Touma is pining over Mieko, Urara is waiting for him at the ferris wheel in the rain, he shows up an hour late. She's not mad and they end up kissing. While Mieko is thinking about Touma her boyfriend calls. Next morning Touma tells Urara that Mieko dumped him (even though they weren't ever really going out).
