oMFG. All the emotions this episode gave me... I'm about to pass out salgkdlsa;hg;dsahg;algjd;sahgd;shga;l.
I knew it was coming. I saw the episode coming. But I was about to literally jump when Soushi hugged her. o_o
I think, though, that it deserved to be two episodes. And more complete.

But omg. This anime, at the beginning, I was just like WTF. But now, I appreciate it a lot. Seeing that there's only one episode left makes me really sad tbh.
shhhhh.

so he was a man slut as a kid to old women? uh .... cool I guess. I guess it's happy ending time, despite him lying and being a man whore.

I only kept watching for Kagerou.

I was delaying this for a long, long time because nothing was happening.
Now this episode, I'm surprised, this was really good.
Now I can't wait to finish it, this episode was awesome.

Wow he whored himself out of his situation, it's unfortunate and I admit feeling weird, titillated and guilty (yes, in that order) about it but I still find that funny. >_<

So she seem naive superficially but actually very perceptive even just in the letter he wrote about himself the first time, and she knows it too! Unfortunately for him, his own lies and delusions became his truth...errr maybe half-truth. LOL

Wow, this was unexpectedly emotional.... just amazing episode altogether. I even felt bad for Kagerou, perhaps for the first time. Man. Wasn't expecting this story to be so deep.

So Soushi was the one who keep writing and exchanging letters to Ririchiyo (as if Kagerou would do something insane like that XD)
Nice hug at the end btw. :3

Loveeeee this ep :')

I'm just glad he isn't deceiving Riri-chan by telling her he actually hates her, lol. When there was Sou-kun's flashback on the letters, I was like, Oh. That's nothing. She'll actually be glad it was you, silly. Hahaha XD

Kage's not such a bad guy, aha ^^

Well, this episode surprised me. It was really good, but even more, again, it surprised me on so many levels. I, as well, wondered how could Kagerou write those lettees to Ririchiyo, but I never saw the real culprit coming. Of course this explained almost if not everything mysterious around him, like how he was so well informed about Ririchiyo. Another surprise for me was the ending - actually I didn't have the slightest idea of how Ririchiyo would react.

As things are now, the sad fact that the anime is ending aside, I wonder what's in there for the manga left. Of course I wouldn't mind if we just get carefree chapters(and hopefuly episodes), but I can't help but wonder. Of course there may be some kind of plot in the present which would be really good.

But my biggest surprise and probably favorite moment(because of Kagerou) was Kagerou's excuse. I so much didn't see it coming. But I guess that he's indeed cool.

God does this episode screw up the passing of the whole show. Seriously it feels like the creators took their sweet ass time with character introductions, bits of development here & there for characters other than Soshi & near the end went "Holly shit this guy is one of the leads we need to actually do sth with him.. quick develop, develop"

You know its hard to feel anything about an episode like this when it comes this late in the story & we virtually had nothing to the guy aside "he acts like her dog" =_=

kinda makes me wonder if this wasn't supposed to be an 24 ep long anime but got cut down to 12 & the creators were told that areound ep 10

Since I don't really like Soushi, I didn't really care much about his back story. I'm certainly happy for Ririchiyo though.

for all of the comedy IxB has focused on, this episode was absolutely beautiful. The part that sent it all home for me was how Ririchiyo was able to tell that the letter he sent with his feelings was his true self. This helps connect how they've truly understood each other all of this time, contrary to Ririchiyo's belief that she was too distant from him.

People are saying that they don't care about this episode because they don't care about Soushi? I don't care about Soushi too but his back story is good, and I appreciate this episode for that.

Awww that was so cuteeee *.*
So happy for them to finally be together :D

Miketsukami's back story was really sad, but it was adorable how the letters he exchanged with Ririchiyo made him feel less alone and happier.
It was amazing how both of them found hapiness in those letters *.*

Onto the finale!

ff's i cried FOR NOTHING. like srsly tho i feel pity for Miketsukami, although that was quite idk how to explain it but the way he did "those things" for him to get out is tragic he kind of had to be a man "prostitute". I was honestly scared they'd misunderstand, and fall apart BUT THAT WAS NOT EXPECTED.

That was a long-ass narration but omg I kinda teared up. Miketsukami lost himself in his pursuit of freedom, his dignity was already hanging by the thread, but in the end he found solace in Ririchiyo, even beginning to view the world differently. Also Kagerou is a mad lad, but it was nice seeing that he wasn’t a jerk to Miketsukami. His mum was so kind too!

Throughout this I was thinking to myself, after Ririchiyo actually met Kagerou, she had HAD to know the person she was writing to clearly wasn’t him lol, she’s definitely not dense & she’s clever & observant, and I was right, that was actually refreshing in the sense that it didn’t turn into another misunderstanding/drama lol.

The ending was touching♡ I want to give Miketsukami a hug too ಥ﹏ಥ
