----------------------------------------
So Kyoutarou managed to use a bit of his powers at the right time....no surprise there.

It looks like they resumed the play on stage. Put some damn clothes on
Pretty song though this episode. I figured they might go for some kind of happy ending here; felt forced though.

I was about to ask what happened to Kodachi since it was looking like she was gonna become a shepherd and be forgotten, which woulda been a major bummer, but I guess since she'll be the shepherd for their school she'll now somehow NOT be forgotten and live with her brother? I really didn't think they explained that too well. I'm still left feeling like Kodachi shoulda been the female lead instead of Shirasaki, she definitely had more screen time, and her reveal to be his sister felt tacked on for plot convenience. Aside from that I also had trouble investing in the conflict with the student council vice president. The president's given reason for not stopping her earlier felt extremely asinine, and considering the only thing that really came from it was an apology it just felt really unnecessary. If the show was trying to make a point through Shirasaki's speech it also fell flat for me. Ultimately I think this series was pretty forgettable, 6/10.

Vice president bitch got REKT! I rejoiced so much when she got busted in front everyone, even though Kakei asspulled there quite hard. Since when he learned the art of teleportation as a Shepherd?

The main Shepherd (Nanai-san) also asspulled a good deal. When he told Kakei he'll be forgotten by people since his book has been burned, it seemed like Kakei had no choice but to forcibly become a Shepherd. But towards the end, he gave into Kakei stubbornness and restored his book like all that talk about being a Shepherd didn't mean a thing at all.

The speech was friggin' boring, yet it took almost half of the episode. Kakei only said it was good just to keep her in his harem.

Somehow, Kodachi can now hang around everyone while being a Shepherd. I didn't get that properly. Is the Sherpherd department making up new rules at the last moments?

Below average episode to end the Rail Wars! of this season. 5/10, only because of bro Ikkei and his substitute acting in the play.

Well, I liked it. Really not bad series, 7/10 for me.
Happy ending, but it was predictable.
I don't regret time spent on watching this show.

It was nice to see that Minafes was really successful and how the vice president got caught by Kodachi and Kakei. That being the event that ends Minafes!

I was happy that Kodachi got what she wanted to become. Kakei losing his right to be a shepherd if he keeps up his mindset. The speech was decent and a wrap-up for the things they did together.

I still can't shed this vibe on that Nanai is Kakei's dad or something. Mentioning the stubbornness and sin just really hinted towards being related to Kakei at least. Shepherd having rules, but the ones willing to break rules for the better are perhaps the ideal of being a shepherd. Still feeling the sympathy as a relative of sorts to restore his book.

I sort of liked this and was glad that Kodachi stayed even though this last episode wasn't that nice of a "tie everything down" episode but I did enjoy it. 7/10 would be a fair score, a somewhat below average anime though I did enjoy it.

The end was average, but it was satisfying.

It avoided ending in any of the girl's ending and even a harem ending to an open route, the safest one.

I'm really curious if the Boss is actually Nagi and Kakei's dad?

It was a fun ride, it was well written and nicely paced storyline. It definitely entertained me from start to finish.

I think it isn't too much if I gave the whole series an 8/10.

Well it is more into Kakei and Shirasaki than the others so I consider this to be a more Shirasaki ending.

That end card though.

Not too bad. Definitely going to play the VN soon to see if it's constant with the VN.

the ending was ok i was kinda expecting something complex or more climatic as to how he was goin to save shirasaki because of episode 11s foreshadowin. and wtf the president knew but left her because she thought the vice was gona fail and then shes gona demand an explanation if i was kakei i would have been like fuk you and your lesbian vice prez if it wasnt for me both of yall would have been responsible for shirasakis murder and the teleported like a boss lol i wish he would play along with kodachis jokes every once in a while just to see her reaction.

The expected happy harem ending. I've gotten so used to it so I won't bother complaining. Although I would've preferred if Kakei had at least kissed Shirasaki or vice versa.

Overall, the anime wasn't bad. It was quite good. I liked how they stuck to the plot for the majority of the anime. It was good. They didn't waste much time on individual character development unlike Inou-Battle.

The only complain i have is that the girls weren't kawaii. Nope. Not at all. Tamamo was the cutest and even she wasn't all that would rape type.

It didn't interest me at first and I planned on dropping it halfway through before starting. Changed my mind when I reached the halfway point. Was not dissappointed. Not a masterpiece or a spectacular anime, but very enjoyable. No regrets here.

This anime started slow, was inconsistent at first and its first half was just okay. Things became really interesting once we reached the 2nd half, some of the episodes were really good. I liked the ED, too. Wish Kodachi and Kakei could become shepherds together tho, would've been more satisfying.

8/10, very decent.

Got that impression when he recovered the book as penance for his selfishness.

6/10 nothing special. Some cute romance scenes, the Shepherd supernatural stuff was kind of (kind of) interesting but nothing special in the end. Harem ending although it was a happy transformation for MC. The speech at the end of Minafes was weirdly passionate imo. Kodachi thighs that's all I'll remember.

I guess I could call that a happy ending for the guys at the Happy Project. The Minafes was a huge success indeed. Everyone gave their very best.

At the end, Kakei was fired from Shepherd job. Kodachi got to become the Shepherd for their school. Everyone was happy in the end at least.

It was fine, but not really what I call good. A solid 6/10.

Way too much hate in here, tse tse~ :P
As someone who hasn't played the VN yet and just witnessed this anime as a story itself - I loved it.
I thought the speech gave a good 'Yep, this is the end. The story of this little group of weaklings is done.'-feeling and wasn't boring at all to me. I haven't thought about that guy being his dad actually, even though it wasn't a big twist in the 1st place. In my opinion, it's not even an open ending, where do u all get this idea from? ^^ Shirasaki and Kakei got together in my book, which is fine by me but that's up to you~ I didn't got dissappointed by that ending at all, I mean.. the last episodes of some animes in this season fu**'d it up gooood in comparison to Daitoshokan. ^^ I support his decision to stay true to himself instead of changing his opinions just to become a shepard. I mean, the intention behind the speech etc is that u don't need super-powers (like the shepards) to make ppl happy, so what would have been interesting about Kakei being a shepard in the end~
What started out as an ordinary harem comedy thingy become an interesting light-hearted little story that I enjoyed a lot. Only 2 things I could criticize - I hate harem, so that was a bit annoying at some points + those mood-changes from serious to comedy in the blink of an eye were a bit disappointing sometimes.
Fu** it, I'll give it a 9, go hard or go home~ ( ‘з’)/

Well we had a good ending, something fulfilling at least.
The series was average, nothing groundbreaking. The Shepard system at least gave it some flair but in general i'm giving it a flat 6.0 out of 10. I'm honestly thinking this show should of had some more fan-service haha.

I wasn't expecting that but in the end this episode showed an important decision in their lifes. Kakei-kun earn his book again but he doesn't know that and Kodachi became a shepherd. So nice that everyone got their own wishes realized today... :)

I'm can't say which mark, I'll give to this anime. It's an impossible task between a 9 and one 10..., but I'm glad that had a happy ending! :D

It was a little bittersweet.
This was based on a Visual Novel, right?
Does it continues after this?

It was a good episode, and it was an harem ending after all (males included).
The anime suffered because of the slow start.
