Origami <333, that nap pose. And Tohka:


Date with Kotori huh? She seems a lot more serious than I had thought. Oh wait, it's not really a date now since Tohka and Yoshino is here. Ah damn it.

Ya, basically fan service episode. Next week's the finale. I wonder how the series will conclude.

Origami is just so daring isn't she

They animated chapter 8 and 9 of LN vol 4 quite well, but I think this episode seemed a little bit rushed as well. There are more lots of things in chapter 8 and 9 of LN vol 4 in are not adapted in this episode. This episode is much better than the previous one.

I loved how Origami explained what a swimming suit is to Tohka and Yoshino. The swimming suits fit Origami, Tohka and Yoshino. I lol at the choice that Kannazuki chose for Shido about Kotori's chest.The date was pretty nice. Finally get to see the weapon "White Licorice." at the end.

This ep was way better than last ep. I felt pretty bad that Tohka and Origami didn't get Shido's heart to throb as much as Yoshino did lolz. Too bad all their efforts went to waste. A part of Origami's past was shown in this ep. The date was nice. Kotori was so kawaii when she was crying and hugging Shido after falling off the water slide. After seeing Kotori in her feverish state, it's good to see Shido man up and stop depending on Ratatoskr for their date. Can't wait to see the White Licorice in action next ep. I still can't believe the anime is almost over. Hopefully we get to see Kurumi one last time before it ends. 9/10 for this ep since it was a bit rushed.

Good episode, things are getting serious now because it's the Last Date. There was less action this time and more drama. Too bad though, they skipped many scenes, like Kotori's fan club Fraxinus members' meeting to make plans for the date.

Next episode is the last, with more action. I can't help but feel like we're close to a Kotori ending. I can't wait to see how they'll end the show.

Koyasu, Takehito's commentary on the swimsuits was too funny.

Man, only one episode left now. Very curious how they will end it. I'm guessing it will be left open for a new season if one ever gets made.

Dating imouto? Kimochi warui. But, seems fun :D

What about Kurumi? It seems that she won't make appearance again after watching last episode preview. What a waste, she is one of the most likable character after all.

I can't help feeling I am also watching OreImo when I saw this date with imouto Kotori LOL LOL
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

You misunderstood.

I guess you don't get the link I was trying to say, first there is the date with imouto thing and then there is the same seiyuu for the imouto thing.

i have a feeling that the conclusion will leave many questions unanswered. you just can't conclude a whole series in 30 min. i mean to conclude here is about what has to happen.
1)they finish the date.
2)kotori is saved.
3)origami gets some form of revenge.
4)some large fight.
5)some kind of happy ending.

I have absolutely no idea how they will be able to wrap all this drama in one episode...
I'm half expecting Kurumi to pop out of nowhere and join the harem towards the end though.

Kurumi will probably be saved in season two if there will be one...

That means the Twin Spirits will also make an appearance as well. :3
Just hope they can keep this up!

Nah, Kurumi's background is a lot longer than you think, it'll take a lot of effort to bring her to her senses.

Precisely what I think. It is the orthodox way to end the series while covering most of the bases.

Also does anyone have any idea why Shido fainted and was like "who are you" when he was watching the video of Kotori?


In the novel, Shidou, Kotori and Mana tried several times to remember what happened 5 years ago exactly. And each times they got a freakin' huge headache. The type when you think that your head is gonna split in half.
Their memory got erased, and trying to remember is no good for their health.

Nice episode I guess. Didn't feel too rushed.
As expected, not much of the previous problems would be resolved seeing only there's only 1 more ep left.
A 2nd season would be nice but it seems like the sales are kinda meh.

恋のEveryDay☆HappyDay sung by the character Kotori. I expect it will be included in the 2nd "Music Session" album that covers the BGM and insert songs for the second half of the series that will be released on Jun25.

Nice episode. The first half was fan service and at the end there was a bit of drama. Judging by the preview thing are going to get messy.

But one thing is still bothering me. What happened to Kurumi?

I liked this episode and in general I think this anime is good. It just feels so very rushed.

I can't help but to sit and think "theres just one more episode" also what exacly happend to kurumi? I guess shido was unable to save her, but he did stand infront of efreets attack which means he must've blocked it? Just one more episode left I fear we won't see kurumi again :/

Also, after the ending song it looks like the spirits: Tohka and Yoshino were fading away? I really wonder how it's going to end :o
