"Endless Summer, go!"

A time loop. This time, a different kind of time manipulation effect granted for a wish, unlike the one last episode. I wonder if this show will end in a manner expected by most people.

I cringed when Yuka slipped during the audition. I already had the strong feeling it was going to happen when she bumped into that girl, but waiting for that actual moment was terrible. Tense episode, indeed.

Nice ep.
But, why didn't the other girls help Yuka when she fell?
Bet the audition guys would have liked that more.

Well in most auditions if you make a mistake you are supposed to keep going and act like it didn't happen. It probably would have looked better for Yuka to stand up and brush it off instead of everyone stopping the routine.

Damn, repeating the audition is pretty daunting for those who managed without a hitch because they could screw up this time. Of course, for Yuka it gives her another chance to correct her mistakes.

So there's a third magical rock around, how convenient.

I am pretty sure only the four girls are aware of the time repeat. Everything will probably happen exactly the same for all the other girls.

Aww those scenes at the end were pretty sad, these four are just so close to each other and seeing them talk about Saki's moving away is just :(. Sucks there's just one episode left and chances are Saki is going to end up moving away unless another miracle happens. But for now they're in an endless loop, hmm this is going to be interesting.

It was hard to watch the audition seeing how Yuka was feeling and knowing that something bad was going to happen in the middle of their dance. Lol Rin was practicing smiling.

Oh please, don't act like Haruhi was even close of creating the concept and idea behind endless eight.
I'm started to get annoyed at these kind of comparaison.
That's as stupid as saying that Steins;Gate borrowed from Madoka... you know there's time travel in both.

Agreed, these comparisons can get a little "eh" at times. >.<


I was only making the comparison to Haruhi because that's the main series that popped into my mind. Most folks (didn't say all, most) refer the "Endless Eight" series to Haruhi. I never said Haruhi was the creator of the "Endless" series, that's just putting words into my mouth.

Endless Eight, done right! :P I love the way this show was done!

Expecting a Groundhog Day-like episode and a tear jerking finale. Bring on The Disappearance of Mizukoshi Saki! 4/5.


Love it! That is a movie they should do! (With the girls getting their next an audition chance and heading off to high school together in Tokyo!)

Only one more episode to go, this episode was really good.
But next episode might be very, very lame... I hope it's not.
I almost never read discussions after I made my post, if you want to reply PM me or post on my profile page.

I'm surprised they're following through on the idol dream. All of this talk of Four Seasons made me think that it was just a childhood back story. I do like how it showed us the audition which also helped to enhance just how well these four girls know each other.

As for the wish, my guess is that the rock is going to let them retry the audition again and again until they get it right and pass. By becoming idols, they would stick together and in that sense their summer, the precious time they spend together, wouldn't come to an end.

Once again, this entire operation was Yuka's idea and she's the one who ends up being shook. She continues to be a rather annoying character. And then she went on to complain about copying homework. Not even doing the homework herself, but copying it verbatim; sheesh.

Welp, time is almost certainly about to reverse or standstill after that pseudo wish. Already addressed at the end of the episode. Here we go again: Do they have to keep redoing the audition until they pass?

"...Is your mother worried? Would you like us to assign someone to worry your mother?"

Pretty good episode even though I am NOT interested in idols. Yuka continues to be best girl. Not really saying much considering the others lack much charm or personality.
