| Can someone explain to me why Rikka hates her mother on the early episodes? And why her grandfather hates her during summer break? Thanks! I enjoyed this better during the comedy episodes. 7/10 |

| The comedy was so cool ! The drama made the show even better ! I forgot about them kissing, and not felt rushed. Even better, I didn't feel it was cliché (not like episode 9 when Rikka fell) Damn I like it too much. |
| bonjour |
| Excellent ending omfg!! :___: when she jumped into his arrms i cried so much! XD <3 :_: |

| What a cool slice of life anime and a great animation. I guess Rikka behaved that way to cover up her dead dad's grief and sadness, most of it made her cope with it. Yuuta is the one who made her forget that and also made her see the unseen horizon which I think was love and happiness. Although there was no kiss in the end it still was the best romantic comedies I have watched with a touch of drama. I think also Rikka and Yuuta make the best anime couple, although now platonic but yes they do make a great couple. 8/10. |

| Sooo the two tail girl was really saying "DEATH" I thought the sub was playing with me. |
| WOW what a wonderful ending, I never thought this was so great 9/10. |
| Cilche' ending. Didn't like any of the characters except Isshiki. 6/10. I don't want to watch its next season or OVA. Cause there is nothing interesting. Just a deus ex machina plot. The drama of the last couple of episodes really made this anime into a mess. Those guys couldn't tell Dekomori? That was unbelievable. But I couldn''t recognise Kumin. No character development and no appeal. |
 Without change,we end up becoming the very person we hate. I was dead until the moment I met you. I was a powerless corpse pretending to be alive. Living without power, without the ability to change my course, was bound to lead me to a slow death. |
| I expected more of an comedy series but which why I watched it in the first place but these last two episodes it went down alittle to dramatic but at the same time it’s good i can’t complain. Good ending put a smile to my face wish it can be more development on the characters. I was happy that Rikka came back I thought for a sec that I doubt she would changed that long and THAT hug aww too cute. Everything about this anime is cute to me, little cliche and corny but cute! |

🖖🏽ANIME is a break from REALITY🌈  |
| So in the end she returned to her chuunin self, guess that's no surprise. Was a bittersweet ending somehow. Overall it started off quite weird but good. The characters had some nice development and definitely grew on me. Especially Nibutani was in the beginning pretty unlikable, but got better and better. I still have mixed feelings though about this chuunin-business and think she would've been better off without it. Also I don't get why she decided to move out, that was never really explained. Animation was beautiful as usually from KyoAni. 7/10 |
| didn't think i'd like this anime as much as i did, i ended up not hating anyone and only having slight anger at some characters. rests at an 8/10 for me, looking forward to watching next season. |
| last few episodes were roller coaster ride for me with all that stuff being going on and received perfect ending for me. I quite liked this series which i didnt expected at the beginning |
 |
| That was... a disappointing end of sorts. I take it that she never grew out of her delusional antics by the end ? Or did she? I feel like I got blueballed when it comes to the whole theme. The reasoning given by the characters went over my head when it came to tackling maturity. This is some weird bull being smeared with the the whole "you are fine the way you are, no need to change or mature". I expected her to drop that facade after she bid farewell to her father. |
| This show is cute but kind of boring at times. Wasn’t surprised when she returned to her chuuni self. |
  |
| I was liking the anime until episode 7, but the drama and romance ruined everything for me. Not only the drama was really cliche, but i couldn't like Rikka and Yuuta as a couple at all. It's unfortunate that the anime started very strong, but to me it ended up being a chore to finish it. The anime is not bad, i just couldn't like the drama and romance aspects of it. 5/10 |
I despise woke people. |
| 1/5 for every episode and 1/10 for whole show. |
 |
| 8 first ep were awesome , 9 i dont remember , 10 was boring , 11 was best , 12 was ok , good to see nap girl goes chunibyuu , twintail goes no twintail , MC goes dark flame master and rikka goes jao shingan lol |
Loli world is just a cute world full of cute meat |
| Would have been so much better if only there were a 3 or 4 more episodes to gradually build up to the dramatic climax instead of rushing into it. Still, great show. 8/10 |
 |
| Comedy, check. Romance, check. It was fun to watch and emotional at the same time especially the last few episodes. I'm glad they made the scene when Yuuta asked Rikka to take her eyepatch off became a flashback cause I probably wouldnt be able to stand it and I would hate the MC for that. Music wasn't too memorable for my liking some seems out of place, doesnt fit the situation at all. Overall it was an enjoyable. I dont like the MC's character design tho he looks exactly like Oreki from Hyouka with that hair |
| Loved the ending! I couldn't recognize Dekomori at all with her normal look. It's amazing how Yuuta's 8th-grade self was actually the one to have saved Rikka in her dark times but, now she fully embraces her past an her chuuni self. I also really liked that message at the end by the narrator about self-consciousness and how we will always have 8th-grader syndrome until we die. 8/10 |

| rewatching after 8 years... omg, stil the great anime that i was in love in the past. |
 |
| Predictable end (not really against it) but some twists did jumped me out like Sanae's hair down lol, and Rikka's chunni was to cover up sadness to her dad's demise and inspired by the MC since middle school. I agree that in some episodes (everything after ep 5) the tone is kinda uneven. Full blown comedy then sudden drama in like 10 seconds gap then go back to comedy again in 5 seconds gap? |
| Now this is a show that really surprised me with how much I ended liking it. A lot more hilarious than what I was anticipating and tonal shifts are always pleasing for me personally IMO. Tears and laughter, 9/10. The reality slap in the face can come much later, let them have their goddamn fun |
| I loved this show, it made me laugh, it made me cry, it made me think about life... all the things it usually takes to make a show a 10/10 But this last episode, beautiful as it was, made this a 9/10 for me. The whole, "Our couple actually had an encounter as children" trope is tired. They had a lovely relationship that had developed naturally over 11 episodes, no need to tac this on. It didn't even add anything to the story- Yuta knew what he had to do before Kumin told him. Very little would have changed if he didn't know that, aside from maybe the rest of the gang might not show up. Still, you have every right to enjoy it, and too appreciate what it did for Rikka. Obviously it impacted her because... well because the author wrote it that way. I just feel that it wasn't the only option, and that I personally would have preferred a more unique path. |
 |
| This show was great, beautiful albeit predictable finale. Just the ending i hoped for. Solid 9/10 for me. |
| This was quite the emotional finale, albeit a little too forced for me. Nevertheless, it was a great way to finish the series off. Oh yeah, by forced I mean specifically the whole 'letter from myself 2 years prior', and the whole, 'Yuuta was the real reason she became that way, as a form of escape' sections. But I guess they couldn't come up with a better way to make her become that way. Oh well. I always enjoy watching Rikka smile. It definitely is a smile that should be protected. I laughed at the police chasing them at the end whilst the ending narration was spoken over it. The narration at the end was a nice touch. There was nothing major going on plotwise; regardless, it was a very good series overall. |

| A small look from Rikka's past mostly his father as well Sanae's hair is down impossible, Dark Flame Master anticipated well what he will become in the future, Kumin senpai has the Tyrant's eye now what, I love the scenes where they remember each time in their past on how it all happened This episode was all in all sweet and cheerful and I'm happy it was a very nice touch that Rikka is a lot happier now with Yuuta and I hope they never feel down again I guess your chuuni doesn't end This season was so good all in all and I loved every single part of it each episode keeps getting better as to how I anticipated it and the ending very well fits what my happiness feels like perfect anime. |
  |
| a shame I missed this one back in 2012. Kyoani saving anime, as usual. |

| first half of the show was so good i wish they kept the melodrama stuff for the 2nd season and let this whole season just be goofy shit Rikka adding BGM to her “battle” with Dekomori is the funniest shit i’ve seen in a minute |

| Fuck man. This show made me reach a deep state of contemplation, which is very rare. 6/10, would love to give this a higher rating but there were too many cringe moments. |
| "Life is too bitter, so coffee, at least should be sweet..." - Hikigaya Hachiman (Yahari Ore no Seishun Love Come wa Machigatte Iru) |
| The last three episodes had me crying like a little baby. I think this is my favorite love-story of them all. |
| mal users be like please give me mindnumbing boring cgdct content none of that meaningful wholehearted shit. i think the "drama" at the end was perfect and the transformation of the show from a comedy to an emotional romance was very well done and not a trajectory you see everyday |
| Damn ... the scene with Rikka finally saying goodbye to her Dad at the "Ethereal Horizon" made me tear up. This ending went pretty much as well as it could've been. As I mentioned in the previous episode, Rikka can finally accept the reality but also keep her fantasies and her "inner child". We're always told to grow up and follow the status quo ... but where's the fun in that? - Wake up, get to work, go home, eat breakfast, sleep ... Definitely fantastic ending and a fantastic season as a whole. It was wholesome, funny, great fantasy scenes, the 2 leads actually got together and just an all around great watch. The great art and animation made it a really fun watch too. Easy 9/10 |
