Dat tears ;.;

Oh well, at least the mood is much better this episode. Still feels like a feels trip though with a revisit of those memories. Wait, is that a new OST they played at that scene? Interesting. Nice to see Linda motivate Banri though :>

I think I'll rate this 8/10 although I have some mixed feelings for the second half. This was quite a ride. Koko's confession came from her heart there.

I feel like a fool for refusing to abandon the Linda ship up till the very end, refusing to accept there wasn't any more chance.

Ohmergersh! I haven't seen the ep yet but by what your saying i may aswell give up watching! Kouko is the most fucking annoying character IMO ever!!! And ohmergersh her hair! I want to throw up just by looking at it! Ughhh, Linda deserved Banri, and also look and Banri falling in love was a little to rushed, maybe more naturally would be better but gosh! Ehh, thus show wasn't the greatest anyway. Nagi no asakura, attack on titan, stiens gate, toradora ftw!

Oh god.. It comes out in 20 minutes on CrunchyRoll. Wish me luck.

EDIT: 6 minutes. Read a spoiler by accident whoops.

EDIT: Yes. Yes. Cheesy, but yes.
The part with Linda was.. Umh.. weird??? I don't know what really happened but she stopped past Banri from being crazy and helped calm that piece of the Current Banri.
But just. Yes. For a minute I thought he really would forget Koko. And then the mirror and the remembering and ahhhH.. Yay for a happy romance ending :''').

Well, overall - the show was good. But it could have been great, too bad they decided to hard focus on the main pair and left the rest of the characters hanging. I think ill give it 9/10 final score.

Chinami's "dont be stupid" backfired in the end, eh? Cant help but grin on that one for some reason :D

That was a fantastic finale. Seems like they really did go through with the Koko route. It seemed pretty vague and the writer could have went anywhere if he wanted to.

Also did I see that correctly near the end there? Linda blushing when Mitsuo started recording her? What about Mitsuo x Chinami D:

It was a pretty good final episode 5/5. 8.5/10 overall.

I am honestly very satisfied with the ending!!! Still kinda confused about that whole bridge scene though. Not really sure what was going on with past/present banri and why the past banri was out of his body again. Oh well, at least i got to see the koko and banri ending i wanted :D

I know right? I was quite surprised that they hinted at that. I guess with her saying yes her feelings moved along with Banri's. Though it's quite saddening to see that Chinami Oka got left out lol.

Disappointed because I was going for Linda. I mean, she is just a much better character. Regardless, that doesn't mean it was a bad ending simply because it didn't go how I wanted it.
Can't decide if it's a 7 or a an 8 for me... leaning more towards an eight, since I don't allow meh endings to account for a full body of work, but it is a weighing factor.

A happy ending. Was expecting a bittersweet one, in which Banri wouldn't remember anyone in the end.

7/10. Was rushed but I still enjoyed it.

So, in the end, Chinami and 2D are still single.

What a good ending for both Banri and Koko. Linda finally gave him an answer on the bridge. 2-D being a good friend that he is, never gave up on Banri and it paid off. Now everybody is moving on. Linda blushing after looking at Mitsuo. I guess those two would be together then. Good anime. Gonna miss it.

oh here we go with the pairings. I thought Koko x Banri was quite obvious with the openings/endings etc. I loved the finale and probably would rate it as a whole 8-9/10.

Have a question about Oka's video


I enjoyed the show a lot, but I don't know how to feel about the ending. It isn't bad since I shipped KokoxBanri, but something was off about it.

Well as I expected, Chinami/Mitsuo was left unresolved. Crap ending for her but it's her own fault. She kept her mouth shut until the end so she has no sympathy from me.

The whole scene with Linda and the Banris on the bridge was just weird. I don't understand how Linda was able to interact with ghost Banri, and of course they leave that unexplained, along with what Linda has to take care of. The Banri and Koko scene was nice though.

6/10 overall from me. 2D and Nana were by far the best characters, which sucks considering they got the least screen time.

Could have been better if they added two more episodes. It feels like they need to finish it so they end it. Kind of disappointed.

2D is a true bro. I hope the girls from the Tea Club service him every night of his college life for his service to brodom. Telling Koko to go postal was great to see.

I must confess I found the whole sequence with Banri recovering himself and Linda saying yes on the bridge very strange and kind of rushed. I think the writers should have done a better job with that.

Fucking bridge scene with Linda and past Banri ruined everything
Linda hugging and seeing what is supposed to be a fraction of Banri's past memory but apparently not because it can fucking pick up a ring that fell in a river.

It's great that Kaga ended up with Banri and that he remembers everything but we got a big fuck you for the rest of the characters.

What the fuck.

I think it was too damn obvious that will end this way.
What really frustrates me is that we couldn't get to know if Mitsuo made a move on Linda,or Chinami on him.

7/10 with a lot of mercy.

Wow. I'm so happy but still I'm a little suprised, I thought they do not make happy ending for these two. So I feel relief. At the end Linda blushed when Yana-san look at her so lol, that was unexpected since she admit love for Banri I (lol Banri I and II). Btw what now with Oka-chan? <sad_face> 2-D-kun this is true friend of this year. I will miss this show 'couse for me pairing Tada x Kouko was the greatest. And sorry to be honest, I can't understand ppl who was Linda followers. Linda was nice girl but... Nah, shit happens.

Terrible ending not even because it was a look and banri ending but how it was executed was essentially sloppy and kind of predictable. It made it look as if koko had planned it to happen that way. Seriously I was actually fine with this episode until that part where he saw the mirror complete and under bs

what was that whole deal with linda saying "yes" then just running away?

whatever, the show had its ups and downs and was comparatively one of the better shows this season. 8/10

maybe those things she had to take care of are maybe her feelings?Since she knew "present" Banri is here now and he is loving koko.So she needed to calm down maybe?Its just a guess
