Oh, and anyone that has watched Kanon might recognize the girl in the PFP at the end of this episode.
Not at all, I think she look more like Shiori with glasses

Great! I am not the only one to notice it as a title on the book.

Wow, the ending to Shiori's arc was handled pretty darn well by manglobe. I'd say that the anime version of Shiori's arc (or at least the final episode of the arc) was much better than it's manga counterpart. They did add some more background info and details that weren't in the manga, which really did help with the overall story.
I know! That what is amazing and Shiori as a kid is too adorable.

Shiori is the best shy character ever. Just love her.
^This! All of it! I would not the best ever but as of this season yes! There is no other girl like her! :D

I will agree with that! I was fascinated and the setup was excellent in regards to that light.

People still comparing manga and anime when this is anime only discussion.
There is nothing wrong to do that if it's within the boundaries of this episode.

This was a great episode and ending to, imo, the best arc of the anime. Hanazawa Kana did a great job (as always) with voicing Shiori, making her my favorite girl in the anime. Too cute.
I agree. This was my favorite arc and Shiori is easily my favorite girl in the show. I wasn't expecting a kiss at the end considering her character traits, but I'm glad there was one. It just goes to show they save the best for last. ^_^

Wow, it is really episode 11 already? It went by pretty fast. I wonder how they'll do the last episode. Probably something bridging the way for season 2.

Also, loved the Ergo Proxy reference. :)

I really enjoyed the music at the beginning when Shiori was walking back to the library with the stuff she'd bought. This has to be my favourite arc as Shiori was the least annoying and the most realistic. Would've liked to see a Elsie-Keima romance but it's ok as it is. Can't wait for the next one!

You know, this series as a whole has been nothing but amazing. First they take my most hated chapters from the manga (the Kanon capture arc) and make it endearing and likeable, but now they give such an incredibly badass ending to the Shiori arc? I mean, Shiori! badass! those two words should never be together, yet here they are.

As a side note, however, this series has made me want to buy a PSP. Damn you Sony and your blantant product placement.
No problem is insoluble in all conceivable circumstances.

I am of the persuasion that Shiori's capture and Kanon's capture made this first season of Kami nomi.

Mio was completely forgettable, and Ayumi was a one-shot deal.

Shiori would make a cute little sister. :D

Oh, me too! I'll have to go listen to it again since I couldn't hear it very well when I first watched the episode. Other people were in the room and had the TV hellishly loud, so it would have been a volume war if I tried to actually hear what was going on in the episode. Everyone's asleep now though, so... *Goes to listen to music*

Oh, and you might still have a chance for your Elsie x Keima romance since there's going to be a season 2.

Great episode, I really enjoyed it. I even cried a little. Shiori is the best girl so far, to think I would actually like a quiet character... usually the more a character resembles me the more I dont like them.
Anyway this episode bumped this series up to a 9/10!

btw I just read Shiori's manga arc and it was the same. I dont understand the complaints.

i didn't really like the shiori arc as much as the other ones. it was pretty bland, well really bland in comparison to the other three and that kiss just came out of no where. maybe if the arc was a bit longer then... or maybe it just didn't suit my tastes :(


Pretty much seconded.

Prefered all of the others to this one, not to say it was bad, just not AS good as the others.

They definitely boosted the animation quality for the kiss scene - that was breathtaking!

And I loved the foreshadowing and delivery on the tea bottle. Now we have a reason why one girl may remember...

This has been a great series - I am so glad that I've got the Blu-Rays for it on order!

her arc ended well. The animation is nice and smooth, and lmao they used the full version of the god only knows song at the beginning and near the end

and Elsie patching the roof back up was about the most useful thing she's done all season.

That was a beautiful ending to this arc. The music was also a wonderful addition! I am not in the least disappointed, except that it ended.

I'm saddened by the fact that this anime only got half a season... it really should have gotten more. Oh well, at least the 2nd season was green-lit for spring, so there isn't too much to worry about.

I really loved this arc. It was wonderfully executed and paced well which made the final scene with Shiori and Keima all the more better. It was a relatively simple arc in terms of story but the thematic touches really turned it into something else as an animation. A definite 5/5 for it.

More thoughts on the whole arc here!
