It's fun with these challenges in the show and trying to find asteroids draws interest for the characters.

There's only one episode left but this show has done a decent job in making the premise as credible as possible imo. And the club is growing stronger than ever.

The senpai being back was nice, Sakura behind the where was a surprise but it was nice to see.
New characters ones again and they where nice trying to help each other out like that.

Seeing them active with their excursion is nice.

This anime always introduces such nice characters. From their personalities, to looks, to even reasons. Real nice touch. Hopefully they'll name an asteroid in the next ep.

It's time to get ready for the final episode! Mira is participating in the shiny star challenge and Ao is accompanying her as a visitor, although they somehow were able to convince the organisators to let Ao also participate in some of the activities. As one of the activities is observing the sky and looking for asteroids there is a good chance Mira and Ao will be able to fulfill their promise and discover a new asteroid. But as the manga hasn't ended yet, I don't think they will actually be able to discover something new, although I don't know for sure as I haven't read it and I'm just guessing.

Apart from that the surrounding characters were also quite interesting. Everyone participating in the challenge seems to be pursuing their own dreams, some of them are more connected to space than others. The most unexpected person to get more development this episode was probably Endou, but as we already knew that she participated in the challenge in the past there has always been a good chance we might learn something new about that. And seems like it left an impression on her, as she still loves to look back on that time.

And far away from the shiny star challenge there are the other members of the earth sciences club who are holding their anual summer camp at the same location as last year. It's nice to see that Mari and Mikage are helping the club as Endou is on Okinawa with Mira and Ao. And it seems like they are also enjoying their time with the others, they also learned something new about their teacher. I'm looking forward to the last episode next week, it will be interesting to see what happens for both, the participants of the shiny star challenge but also the other club members.

This episode went by so quick!

We got some cool astronomy info this ep which is always nice. Explaining the process of photographing celestial objects, tracking them, etc. Sensei getting embarrassed at her old pictures with her friends was adorable. She’s like a big kid.

With one more episode to go it looks like next week we’ll get our asteroid, will be sad to see this end. I’ll have to read the manga

Ao managed to catch up to Mira, with all the right connections to catch her before she made her move. Onwards to the Shining Star Challenge!

With the Earth Science club parading on Mira and Ao's expedition for the challenge, the challenge was QUITE THE challenge though with the absurdity of the distinct competitiors of insane never-ending knowledge, albeit their true reasons glanced in full view.

Really nice to learn about asteroids, the changes of weather patterns and whatnot with Mira's small group investigating on optical stuff. Even more is Yuki-sensei with her small history being participated in the Shining Star Challenge when she was their age, brings back fond memories.

What will the last episode bring is up for debates. At least let Mira and Ao's dream to encounter and see asteroids together, as much as it is for the Yuri moments.

It was good to see the two senpai again. The older Sakurai driving, she finally got that license. Nice.

We got to hear a bit more of Endou-sensei past.

I hope Mira and Ao can find an asteroid.

Great episode! It was really theoretic and had to pause it a few times to process what they were saying. I'm learning a lot though unfortunately I've already forgotten it by now.. But nonetheless great to see Mira and Ao so determined, I'm really rooting for them this last episode

I have a horribly dirty mind... When Mira and Ao were thinking that "it would happen tonight", my only reaction was that they really should focus on finding an asteroid instead while they're there. :D

If there's one thing that I'm glad that this episode was to showcase more of Endou's past, where she too had the experience of taking part in the same challenge that Mira is doing. Endou's flustered reaction was adorable. =3

Mira's doing well so far, as the info about how they map the universe and such was really informative and educational. Despite the cloudy weather that's hampered the asteroid spotting so far, it's nice to see Mira and Ao staying optimistic and determined.

With the clear weather now here, I think now's the best time for both girls to find that undiscovered asteroid that they promised they would find when they were younger. Go for it, girls! ^_^

Man, this was such a nice and chill episode!

Each with their own goals, lol. Turns out Ao pretty much forced herself in this expedition of sorts, and that's nice to see! Didn't think she'd in her to do this, I know I certainly don't lol.

A sneak peak into the Sensei's past was really nice too! Hard to imagine she was once the Majime-type xD. And of course, there's always that one person who manages to land a big one, right?

And hey, the weather cleared up! Their feelings reached Ao and Manaka, how adorable is that? Sakurai-senpai is best tsundere this season and this episode just showcased that perfectly.

A nice little dive into the space and science stuff too! Don't think I really got them fully but just seeing the Characters enjoy and interact was more than enough to suffice me.

Just one more episode left...

A glimpse into the teacher's past was delightful. Not to mention that she was unexpectedly cute.

No unknown asteroids in sight yet but there is still plenty to watch.

They should finish the anime with them Discovering an asteroid.

It will be kinda like how a apprenticeship/internship student discovered a new plant at NASA on his first day

Quite the educational episode this was. Not that I'm complaining tho, it was indeed really enjoyable and the brief focus on Endou-sensei's past was a very nice touch as well.

One more episode to go.

I'm slowly watching the shows, don't want to run out of anime to watch during quarantine.

The two new side characters are quite interesting. Asuka passed just to get a chance to meet her idol. Also Shihou is interested in people, because she wants to be a counselor - that surprised me.

Also that guy in charge... well, at least he was nice enough to make Ao sit down on a chair. I know she's just an observer. But come on, don't torture the poor girl by making her stand while everyone else is sitting comfortably! :(

sensei is so kawaii in her school day years.

looking forward to next week. Maybe they discover something. :)

Oh man, they're having the summer camp again, now with the new girls. It feels so nostalgic to have Sakura and Monroe there. I wish Mira and Ao were there, too.

And now we have two more new girls. I like them! Shame we're only going to have them for a couple of episodes.

I wonder if they will actually discover an asteroid??? I guess that's the whole point of the plot, something that the character's want/need to achieve, but these girls could easily go to the same university and continue their studies! Lol I'm not sure how many universities have great astronomy programs in Japan, but I doubt there's that many. They could agree on one😂sharing a dorm room and living together forever😂😂

There's always new stuff to discover. Just a few days ago, astronomers detected an asteroid up to 600 feet wide that passed by unnoticed. This season set the stage for showing Ao and Mira's dream was possible, so a continuation would logically bring the two closer to their dreams!

That girl Makita Shiho is interested in Ao's.. brain?.. She's someone who is interested in brains, or something?.. Well, maybe will see more..
Makki also knows a lot about the subject they're in here, it seems.. ;P
Tomorin really likes her idols.. ;P Which is nice, it's her hobby and help to get interested in other things as well, it seems, with comparisons of close things and stuff.. ;P
Curator?.. Curator of what Makki would want to become?.. It literally can mean anything, no?.. Like you can curate work of some scientists group.. Or some science exhibition.. Or any project, really.. I'm not too sure, what it tells about being interested in brain for Ao, to be honest.. Not sure, how related are these things.. Like, is it about better working with people?.. Is it about searching certain people?.. I'm not too sure..

Another summer camp with a visit to the JAXA center, so we got a very educational episode again.

I like these two new characters.

Asuka is so adorable and energetic girl. And she love idols. So do I! ^^ It's amusing that her main reason to participate in the Shining Star Challenge contest was to get a change to meet her favorite idol, Amane Neon.

Makita is more chill and well-mannered person than Asuka.

It was interesting to learn more about Endou's past.

Mira and Ao are determined to discover their asteroid. Too bad the cloudy weather made the observation impossible at first. Fortunately, the next day the sky was clear. Maybe it was thanks to those cute teru teru bozu. :)

If one of the participants applied to meet her idol and another want's to be a counselor wouldn't it been better to give the spot to someone who actually want's to do space stuff? Someone like Ao? Now she got a spot as an observer so she can still participate in a way but still.

I ship the two teachers btw.

Whilst Ao and Mira are on the island the others go and visit JAXA again, excellent.

Too bad the weather sucked a bit. At least it seems to be alright on the second day, but both Ao and Mira are exhausted by this point.

It went by so quickly, the next episode is the last one, I sure hope it's gonna be a good one!
