I cried like 30 times thru 1-11 episodes. Not sure why, but.. I can't really take it.
Too bad there's only 1 episode left.

Okay good, Sen didn't commit suicide... but crazy episode. I'm so happy Sa-chan is okay. I was really worried for her.

And I was sobbing when Kaoru and Sen cried together... It was just so pure and nice. I honestly can't fathom what Sentarou's feeling right now.. Some horrible mix of rejection, failure, and guilt. I feel so bad for him. I'm sure he'll come back though.. he will :)

The pacing of this episode was off, I have to admit. It didn't allow the watcher to really feel impacted by the events. Some scenes were executed very well though.. The story is still amazing, so I don't mind.

this was really good, i'm surprised at all that they fit in this episode o: i kind of wanted to hear the part in the manga where kaoru sang my favorite things for ritsuko though x) nfsd;klskd but what's even going to be more interesting is how they're going to fit everything that happened in the manga at the end into the last episode ooo:

Richan's singing was so cute I could almost ignore the engrish.
Really awesome episode. I love every minute of it. I wish they could have performed at the cultural festival though.

It's not exactly 'wrong'. 'The final episode received an early screening at a special event held at Odaiba Cinema Mediage on June 24, 2012. The regular TV broadcast was held on June 29, 2012.' You can find this under the 'More Info' tab.

Once it transitioned to Sen riding the bike, I immediately started to shake my head since it was obvious nothing good would come out of it.
The scene on the roof really gave me shivers though.

Well, the family drama was resolved very quick. Anyway, character development for Sentarou though.

And oh, the rooftop scene = manly tears were shed. Really emotional.

Sad things aside, Ri-chan singing was really catchy btw.

This was full of surprises. I wasn't expecting Kaoru to be waiting for Sentarou. Nice one, Kaoru! And he did a job making him stay. The scene afterwards, where Ritsuko was treating Kaoru was really cute. They did the father coming back home scene pretty nice as well. Ritsuko singing was the first thing that came to my mind when Kaoru mentioned that they were too plain. The practice scenes were really fun to watch. Their English is just great! They got me with the accident too. Not seeing Sentarou's little sister at the hospital looked suspicious too me but it never crossed my mind. Really nicely done! So was the scene at the rooftop. Looks like Kaoru is now on the verge of breaking. Let's see how they will wrap all this up.
And slowly, you come to realize... It's all as it should be...

A very depressing episode but really great. I also must admit I liked their version of "My Favorite Things" better then the original was really looking forward to hearing them play it fully at the festival =(.

Steel is my body and Fire is my blood,
I have created over a thousand blades,
Unknown to Death,
Nor known to Life,

So as I pray, unlimited blade works"

There was some amazing drama in this episode. I’m usually not a fan of drama but how can you not like it when it is so well done. The only thing I didn’t like is how there was very little music. “My Favorite Things” was amazing but I wanted more. They were setting up this episode to be a big musical bash but that never happened and it doesn’t look like it will happen in the next episode. While it is an impressive story, the music is what made me love this series.

I am relly impressed by voice acting. It was amazing how one episode show us so much emotions. And to add I was in shock that after all singing and laughing we have something like this. But I guess that was necessary. Still... a great episode.

So is Sen looking to be abandoned by the world then? Cause really that blows, but oh well, wonder if Ritsuko and Kaoru will stay together. Also wonder if we will get to see Sen again.

I'm impressed at the wide range of emotions one episode can give you. It was a crazy roller coaster ride of Sentarou leaving or not (physically/spiritually)

Honestly, even had the rest of the episode been crap, that rooftop scene was so powerful I'd still be singing this episodes praises. Luckily, this show is a lot better than that. I'd be lying if I said not everything worked for me here but the core of the series, Richie & Sentaro's relationship (with a little Ritsuko thrown in there too for good measures) excels to such an extent that the disappointment at the lack of one big festival or rather fizzled family drama just washes away not even leaving a trace by the episodes conclusion.

When they said it was Sachiko who got injured, my heart sank. That scene on the rooftop was so stunning and moving, couldn't hold back the tears when Kaoru embraced Sen. I hope they can find him soon, I want to see them jam out one more time.

Just when everything was working out for Sen, the accident happened. When they said it was Sachiko I was like oh nooo! :(

Sen, where did you go?!

I always felt this air of tragedy around Sentaro since the first episode and pretty much feared the entire time that he would die at the end. Leaving without a word, and hearing his view on the rosary he left behind, is almost as bad though :(

Ristuko is a cute singer, it's a shame we couldn't see it all on stage.

I could smell an accident happening a mile away, there would've been no way they would just happily fiinish the show with an amazing play at the festival.
What did surprise me was that Sentarou didn't get hurt but Sachiko ... kinda weird how she decided to go with him though but w/e.
And now Sentarou just left ... poor father of Ritsuko thinking for a sec he had come back :/

Also Ritsuko's singing voice and English were fantastic, really well done.

Dam, I was really scared that he would die, but he wasn't too badly hurt, and his sister is better now.
But why did you run away Sentarou, come back!
