Shi Fen got a bike by trading stuff, stonks. Kai Xin lost his bike but made a good friend (and a basketball career). The 2nd and 3rd seasons were better than this one, 6/10.

Taking a look at Shi Fen's backstory of trading stuff back and forth, until he got a bike.

And there's Kai Xin's interest of basketball...all the trading is worth it for a long-time friend. WHAT A FULL CIRCLE THOUGH.

@z00nex yeah sadly true, this gag is getting old after 3 years.

Thats some good twist, my friend! I can't believed that trade circle ended with a high note! XD

Oh man, its already over. I hope its getting a long episodes. But, well, what can i do with that? Gladly this last episode had Shi Mao. So, i don't have anything to complain about it.

I give this one my 8/10 for being consistent to be funny.

Yeah yeah.... nice way to end this season lol. The thought of exchanging things(nicely placed, not too random) and making something big, good enough, he got a good friend.
If there was no one else within a 5-kilometer radius from Shimamura, and she was in a deep sleep and an all-knowing deity just happened to reassure me that she wasn’t going to wake up the next 24 hours, maybe I’d get bored after 23 hours and I might kiss her once to relieve some boredom...

The second half was solid produced episodes, but overall, this season was underwhelming. Hoping the next season is better.

5/10, weaker than the second and third season.

Ha, of course there's a little twist right at the end.

Is it just me, or did Shi Miao have barely any focus this season?

A good episode to end this season. From a paper clip to a friend huh, Shi Fen lucked out and he always was a nice guy. Thou XD Kai Xin got his ball but had to start walking to school.

The worst season so far, this season was pretty boring tbh except a few good episodes.

It was a good episode but bad to finish a season. It seems that with every season they care less and less about making the last episode stand out, and just put a random chapter instead.

As some had said, this season was underwhelming. It was nice having more focus on Kai Xin but also a little tiring that almost all the episodes were about the main boys' stuff, the sibling part from the anime barely existed in this season.

I'd like a new season, ofc, but I hope it's like the previous three seasons that had more variety.

A good episode. It had some heart to it.

That said, I think this season was better than the third, but worse than the first two. Some episodes were rather unique, but others just didn't hold my attention (like the bath house episodes for instance).
Like others have mentioned, I want more of the sibling dynamic.

Nevertheless, it's still a 8/10 show at the end of the day.

Oh no this episode was really cute. ;o;; And like yo, that wasn't just some acquaintance, they're reeeeeaaaaally friends who are reeeeaaaally fun to watch interact. And it all started from a paperclip. What a cute story. <3
I'm going to miss this show. Hopefully there will be another season!
Ahh! This season of anime has just been so good and fun for me. ;o;;

Man, this needs a season 5! What a cute little episode, this.

Definitely been the worst season out of the four so far but still a solid 7 in my records.

Great to see how the beautiful friendship between Shi Fen and Kai Xin has blossomed because of a Shi Mao's paperclip... too bad Kai Xin lost his bike in the process. Can't wait for the 5th season!

This was sweet but such a random choice for the final episode of the season, one would think it would have been more about the siblings since that was the core of the show but then this season barely featured Shi Miao.

Wow, for a show that's supposed to revolve around a brother and sister, it's strange how LITTLE the sister actually appeared in the season. And seeing as though the opening sequence implies the sister's friend is an equally significant character, I'm surprised she was barely in the season either.

Anyway, this was an interesting final episode. I've reintroduced myself to this show and am rediscovering how many wholesome moments are in the show. Of course, the niche is that each wholesome moment gets squandered by something and that's the punchline. A unique and charming format. I like it a lot and think this is a quality and hilarious show. 9/10 for sure.

Again, interesting final episode though. It was one of the most wholesome moments in the entire show. And Shi Fen didn't even know he was doing something wrong in thiis case of "wholesomeness squandering".

The main reason I'm here, though, is just because I recognize the "tradeoff" plot. Around the time of this season's release, some guy on YouTube called Ryan Trahan did the exact same thing -- starting small and trying to trade his way up to a house or something. Another chick did the same thing on Instagram and succeeded, making the news. Upon further searching, it seems there's actually a Wikipedia article for this exact phenomenon, dealing with a literal red paperclip, albeit with a dude instead of a woman.
