An anime television series adaptation aired from October 2011 to March 2012. The second season aired from January to June 2013 and the third from October 2019 to March 2020. Three live-action film adaptations were released from 2016 to 2018.
By December 2022, Chihayafuru had over 28 million copies in circulation, making it one of the best-selling manga series. The manga has won the second Manga Taishō and the 35th Kodansha Manga Award. Its popularity has boosted the profile of competitive karuta in Japan.
Plot
editChihaya Ayase is a girl who has spent most of her life simply supporting her sister in her modeling career. That changes when she meets a boy named Arata Wataya, a talented karuta player. After becoming friends, he believes that Chihaya has potential to become a great player. As Chihaya takes on a new dream of becoming Japan's best karuta player, she is soon separated from her karuta playing friends as they grow up. Now in high school, Chihaya is reunited with her childhood friend, Taichi Mashima. Together, they form the Mizusawa Karuta Club. With her teammates and friends supporting her, Chihaya strives to become the best karuta player in the world and to one day be with Arata again.
Development
editYuki Suetsugu belonged to a karuta club in high school and feels that the school years are a period of a person's life where "you can dedicate the most genuine part of yourself to something." The name of the series is a poetic makurakotoba, or pillow word, and comes from the first five syllables of the seventeenth poem in the Hyakunin Isshu poetry anthology, a collection of 100 poems which are printed on the karuta cards. In this poem chihayaburu is used as an epithet to kami and can be translated into English as "shaken in fury" and "swift in fury", according to Edwin A. Cranston, or "awesome", as offered by Joshua S. Mostow.[3][4][5]

Reception
editChihayafuru won the second Manga Taishō award,[74] and the 35th Kodansha Manga Award in the shōjo category.[75] When Chihayafuru won the Manga Taishō award, it was commented that the series combines elements of the sport genre and literary elements with a discerning eye on the subject matter.[76] It was one of the Jury Recommended Works in the Manga category at the 16th Japan Media Arts Festival in 2012.[77]
The manga had over 16 million copies in circulation in Japan by 2016;[78] over 24 million by the end of 2019;[79] over 27 million by the beginning of 2022;[80] and over 28 million by the end of 2022.[81] Its popularity has boosted the popularity of competitive karuta.[3][82] The manga has regularly appeared on Oricon's Japanese Comic Ranking chart. Between March 2009 and September 2011, the fourth through fourteenth volumes all appeared in the top 25 during the week of their release and the week after.[83]
Among North American reviewers, Gia Manry, writing about the first episode of Chihayafuru, mentioned that despite the animators' efforts, there was an overuse of CG sakura, describing it as a "mixed bag".[84] Bamboo Dong says that Chihaya's passion and characterisation make karuta interesting.[85] Carlo Santos felt that the series was the "first genuinely good show of the season", citing its characterisation, unusual subject, and polish of the first episode.[86] Marcus Speer enjoyed the production values of the first episode, but felt that the theme songs were "standard fare". He was intrigued by how the characters' childhood impacted on their present interactions.[87] Theron Martin appreciated the focus on the characters rather than the game, feeling that while the high school-aged Chihaya seemed "gimmicky", her younger self was "quite likable".[88] Chris Beveridge praised the tension shown between Arata and Taichi in the second episode's karuta match.[89] Theron Martin felt the second episode's karuta tournament was tense and compelling, and the plot unfolding in a good way, the execution made this good.[88] Crunchyroll listed it in their "Top 100 best anime of the 2010s".[90] IGN also listed Chihayafuru among the best anime series of the 2010s.[91]
