C-cups? Are you kidding me?

Heheh. Kokoko can't win, can she? Now she's competing against her own daughter. It's like watching a Wile E. Coyote futility tale.

The sub came out, watched it, and I'm really satisfied with the ending.

Best moments for me:



Really liked this series, sad to see it go. The next episode looks kinda lame though.

haha wow that was a great ending to a wonderful show. Kotomi is so funny, she really did take after her mom a lot.

The next ep looks pretty good, more like an OVA type ep though. I wonder why they didn't make it a DVD only ep. O well still looking forward to it.

exactly what i thought.

great series and i am considering this to be the true ending, screw that extra episode crap. great conclusion to a great series. tho it would be interesting to see kotomi growing up and how/who she turns out like.

and holy crap is it me or did kin-chan and chris have like 3 kids.

oh and i want to see sempai's and matsumoto's kid. i wonder if he would be born with that mustache.

OMG T_T !!!!! I LOVED this episode. Kotoko might be the best wife on the entire planet. honestly. Who on the planet besides her would do something like that? I would hope i would! really! She really really thinks about him! Omg...*sob*

I'm really glad they are doing a follow up episode. kinda like an OVA cept' we dont have to wait too long to get it! ^_^ I hope it ends with an even happier ending!

I'm happy with this episode. So many great shows went to disappointment this anime season and this show went from one of my "I'm watching because there isn't anything else on" to a "NEXT WEEK! NOW!"

I'd just be repeating the previous posts, so Ill just say it again... I'm happy with this episode. ^_^ *all warm and fuzzy*

I've never seen an anime featuring the life of lovers-turned-to-family like this before. Itazura na Kiss spans from high school days, college days, getting a career days, and even happy family - pretty much the life of average people. Among the fun times and hardships, it tells that life is beautiful.

The final chapter was very HAPPI, it made me cry and cheer for them lol. Pretty simplistic anime but it dares to move forward every time under great storytelling. Couldn't decide to give it an 8 or 9 out of 10 score... Well there's still an extra chapter after the trials they went through. Next and final episode should be fun!

Little fun fact... When Kotomi reached high school, this anime completes a full circle of a human generation. :D

YEAH! That's part of why I love this so much. I have not read the manga and I definitely did not expect this series to last until she goes into labor and giving birth! And the preview of the last episode has got me wanting it.

Surprisingly, I am sad to see this series go. It's amazing how much Kotoko and Irie's love grew for each other..

This episode was great and beautiful. I definitely gained full respect of Irie kun.
Psh, I mean when they first got married, I still thought he was a jerk!
I guess children really do bring happiness. :P

Kotomi is so cute~

I loved when Irie was wearing the fat suit. Total 180 reversal from the earlier eps when he would never be caught dead doing something like that.

This ep was literally death by cuteness.

cant say much more than that, very cute funny episode, Kotomi just wins, even beating her own mom, hahah. really great ending to a great series, atm it sits at 9/10. The whole series is kinda fast paced since it does cover from high school love. "Jama miro!"

Please don't open discussion topics if you can't actually discuss the episode yet. Watch it and create the topic afterwards. If there's no topic yet, it's obvious that the regulars haven't seen the episode yet.


Anyway, episode was really cute. Kotomi is crazy, but that was too be expected. xD

This episode was awesome! Too many funny and touching moments to count! ^^

Some of my personal favs include:

- Kotoko fawning over her boob size, lol!
- Chris announcing that she is pregnant too ^^
- Irie-kun wearing a pregnancy suit in maternity class! XD (Is it just me, or did they start taking maternity classes kinda late? o.O)
- Irie-kun deciding to save Matsumoto's life, in spite of his wife going into labour; and Kotoko for once not being jealous and telling him that it's ok.
- Little Kotomi having inherited her dad's looks, but her mother's personality.
- Chris and Kin-chan's son having inherited Chris' hair colour, but Kin-chan's hairstyle! XD
- Yuuki-kun growing up to be just like his brother, looks- AND personality-wise! ^^

What I loved about this episode and this series is that they know how to maintain great pace. And if there is nothing important to be told, skip a few years! The direction was nice and crisp, and with the exception of a few B-team animation anomalies, it's probably the best straight up love comedy, second to Nodame Cantible. There are few things I diskiked about this show.

I remember when I started this anime expecting just a normal high school romance ending in the girl FINALLY getting the guy... but this has been one of my higlights of it's season. It certainly has been great watching, and this episode has brought some great moments:

  • Kotoko's admiration of her endowment
  • Dramatic bit of Kotoko's collapse
  • The whole parenting classes scenario
  • The Matsumoto Drama
  • Kotoko bravely going through labour by herself
  • Naoki seeing the baby (i cried like a baby through that scene)
  • Kotomi = KAWAIII!!
    Love the fact she has Naoki's looks and Kotoko's attitude!
  • Final look through all the characters endings
  • The picnic and the picture... it was beautiful

Next episode? Why do I care... Nothing could ruin that ending, so why complain about how weird it looks. :)

Edit:
*Looks again at Next Episode Name* Hello Again... (amnesia?)

I'm going to miss this anime, I thought it was an usual high-school romance but it's much more. It had its clichèd moments, but it still managed to amuse me for 24 episodes. Plus how many anime span from a confession to childbirth?

xD awesome way to start the episode, kotoko wins!

anyway, this episode sure felt like it was the last, and next one does seem like an OVA-kind, cant wait to see how it will turn out.

&specially love the ending, showing everyone & how they are doing. + the song :D
although, kotoko's first friends, the black-hair-one, still creeps me out D;

Did anyone else find this disturbing:

when Kotoko was going home alone on the bullet train HEAVILY PREGNANT nobody even offered her a seat to sit!! >8-O

and when she fell over on the bridge, the first guy that walked past her... just walked past!! o_0;

I really hope people in Japan aren't really like this. and Kotomi's voice is like a jackhammer! so sharp D-8(

I did. I couldn't believe it! And they obviously drew it in there on purpose :S At least the woman offered to help.

My first thought at the beginning of the episode was: is she pregnant with twins?! Holy crow, that wasn't a pregnant belly, that was HUGE belly. I've only seen women that big if they're toxic or are carrying twins or both :P

Yuuki <3 He was awesome this episode :D In fact, I was really pleased with this episode all around. Bravo!

Really enjoyed this epi, as well as most of the series. This one was awesome. Really got misty eyed when Kotoko was sending Irie off to surgury and said "I'm sure baby is rooting for Papa too".

Love the ED sequence - 2 Kin clones! Okasan up to her old tricks with Yuuki now as her new project. Just lots of fun and touching scenes. Glad I started watching and stuck with it.

>3 Twas ze awesome imo. Kotomi is probably what Kotoko was like in her younger days. The next episode seems to be visiting grandparents? Kotoko's? Who knows. Hopefully Kotomi's still in the picture. Kenn doesn't want a massive flashback. xO

The thing is, 25 is so vague. All you saw was that old guy over and over.

I just love the intro to the preview though "You mean this wasn't the last ep?!"

Ha. Even they acknowledge it.

I do have to say though, if there is one more ep, I hope its really good. Maybe that old guy is Naoki grown up! I invision a full circle with Kotomi finding a boy she likes ;)
