| Nice, Mina and her friends got more screen time again even in the series' finale. Takagi and Nishikata had some more time together but the episode felt a little bittersweet. Relieving all the time together, they really made a lot of memories this season. Not going to lie, I think they captured the emotions of this episode really well to the end, especially with the soundtrack and the scenes when they were running towards each other. |
 |
| Last episode was Valentine's Day, now this finale is White Day. Hamaguchi is such a scaredy cat to confess to Hojo, and wants Nishikata in for some inspiration...which man, you won't get any. In any case, Takagi is being more direct, though being liberal within her teasing standards. And the dense Nishikata FINALLY gets it, though not even cutting close, he has only until White Day to prove that he finally win over her...in the challenge quest manner, of course. Takagi has to attend her relative's wedding on that same fateful day, but almost immediately Nishikata's quest plan starts to unravel while waiting for her to arrive...which she couldn't go back due to bad weather, and a class without Takagi, feels weird. And of all people, the Ashita wa Doyoubi girls have to stumble upon Nishikata's quest arounf the school, and there they go to solve riddles one after the another. Mina sure has a lot of time on her hands, but they put it back where it belonged, so props to the 3 girls. My man, Kimura, knows what's up between Nishikata and Takagi, and accompanied him during his library duty during lunch break. Hamaguchi repaid Hojo with chocolate, but just couldn't have the man-energy to confess, but Nishikata going for it all the way to chase Takagi down to pass his White Day chocolate to her, that's quite admirable. This isn't quite a full-fledged confession yet, just a White Day thing. This is probably the most wish-fulfillment fulfilled season ever, and I can't be more than happy enough. And since the movie has already been announced, I REALLY want the Moto adaptation to come soon, that is easily the pinnacle of the Takagi-san series. |

| Nishikata just can’t rest, be it White day or any other day, beating Takagi takes priority over every other thing. Though unsurprisingly it’s yet another failure, but that wasn’t the case when it came to him finally realising the thing he should’ve had a thought about a long time ago. And was it worth it? One-thousand percent it was. Would’ve fancied a direct confession but still it’s all good. Such a good finale to conclude yet another season of this heartwarming series. |
 |
| All that running training came in the clutch. Nishikata was able to keep up with the car long enough to be seen. The 「会いたかったよ」is the perfect line to set up for what may happen next in the movie. It definitely wouldn't have ended with a full out confession yet. I also found it funny they were just standing there holding hands during the entire duration of the ED credits. Like, are you guys gonna move or do anything? |

| Man, that was a sweet finish! Hamaguchi set up the finale really well and so it's hilarious that he went and flopped it on his end. Boy, Houjou's disappointment seemed unparalleled xD. At least Nishikata didn't follow that route and managed to man up in time. It's wonderful how they managed to align the trio's role into this. Usually, I found it okay but this really enhanced the experience. Takagi-san just happening to catch the silhouette of Nishikata in the distance by chance was a nice touch. Gee, Nishikata sure ran though. Credits to him. "Takagi-san ni aita katta." - Well said, Nishikata! Kimura's little support in the library scene was nice to see as well. He was the MVP in the last season's finale but he didn't shy too far away this time either. While we're at it, I think the episode itself wasn't as powerful as the last season's finale but I thought the segments in this season were more consistent. As such, a well-deserved 8/10 from here. |

| Run! Nishikata! Run! "aitakatta" Finally!, Finally!, after three seasons, the day has come. 😭 |
何それ？意味分かんない  |
| Ye wasn't expecting a confession and didn't get one but still was a sweet finale. Overall this season felt pretty lackluster to me, there were indeed some fun parts and sweet parts but most of them were quite boring and repetative. Still a fun watch nonetheless. I hope we get a proper conclusion in the movie and then get moto takagi san adaptation someday. |
 |
| I'm so happy that Mina and Co. put the Nishikata Quest back to its original spot after they completed it because they realized it was for Takagi. They are real ones. I love this season ended with him running after the car as, earlier in the season, we knew that Nishikata was running on his own for practice and to improve himself, which was seen here. Ended on the 10th box opened :') |
 |
| Based Mina and co, solving Nishikata's little charade and putting them back for Takagi's sake And now we start our waiting game for the movie |
| TAKAGI SAN MASTERCLASS LETS GOOOOOO. What a great final 5 minutes omg, couldn’t help but squeal like a little girl when Nishikata said how much he wanted to see Takagi. That was probably the most satisfying non confession I’ve ever seen. Nishikata was able to convey his feelings in such an eloquent and powerful way. Can’t wait for the movie and hopefully season 4! |

| Damn. Is this the last season? It sure felt like one. I hope it's not tho. |
 |
| I expected "I LOVE YOU" to come out of Nishikata's mouth but I know that's too much to ask from him 😅 It's still cute 💖     |

| Sadly there was no real confession or kiss or anything, though it's a fitting vanilla ending for this series |
 |
| A game of Nishikata Quest on White Day as we end the 3rd season of this wonderful series. And really, what is there to say that hasn't already been said by this point? It's still lovely, adorable, cute, whatever you wanna say. I still long for the day when the sequel/spin-off inevitably gets animated, but for now I'll continue to revel in all the Takagi-san goodness we get. Strong 8/10. |

| Oh my gosh it was so awesome! I am excited for the movie more than ever now! I am just sad that once the movie is out it may be a while till I will be able to see it here. Gonna be dodging spoilers like a gangster for a while. |
 Hana(花) was the perfect ending song to conclude this season. Can't express how happy I am with this choice. There is still a movie yet to be released. Can't wait. Looking forward to it. A bit sad at the same time, as we all know it is coming to an end. Even so, these sweet and joyful moments will remain in our hearts forever. Love endures. Hana (Flower) Amidst us scattering like flower petals It was a dream-like miracle that I met you Being in love, getting into fights We climb over all sorts of walls together Even after I'm reborn, I'll be a flower by your side |
| Amazing ending~Nishikata realized that she wasn't teasing him at those times. So excited for the movie!!! |

| Nishikata is a keeper, if that's all the effort he puts by just being friends, imagine on an actual relationship, I love how the finale was Nishikata owning his feelings, sure he needed a bit of a push to get started but what he really needed was to be far from Takagi, that way he knows what is it like no having her besides him as granted, it is a bit of a shame the anime ended much like Symphogear with them holding hands and no the 3 words we all want to hear but there is the movie to look forward to, unlike Symphogear : ( |
Sweisman2000 said: Firstly, i hear there is a kovie coming out in like 2 months? Thats super quick, can someone comfirm? Also id like to start reading the manga (assuming this follows it), what chapter should i start at? Yes, the movie was announced last year together with the 3rd season, it'll come out on June 10th (here the MAL page). The manga isn't exactly the same, it has less development. There are a few episodes in the anime that don't exist in the manga (this episode I don't remember it, but I could be wrong). The ending of the 2nd season too (the summer festival) I think was anime original. The movie will be about the summer vacation on their 3rd year, and from this last episode I'd say it could be an anime original ending. |

the first line of the ending song, i recognized it! such a good one to end it on. hear it a lot when i use my SiriusXM/Pandora mobile app (Anime Kei station) - But i'm struggling to remember who did the original, as the one in this ending was done by Takahashi-san. as for this episode, the feels train hit hard. edit: found the OG artist.

| So close to a confession, but not quite. Well, perhaps that's no surprise with the movie so close on the horizon (undoubtedly, they want to save that sort of moment for a grand finale to the movie). Another great season of this show comes to an end, and this season we even got to see Chii at last. 8/10 and, in all likelihood, my AOTS. |
| Fantastic and beautiful ending was expecting him to say i love you and that end song was perfect very much looking forword to the movie |
| Takagi must feel cold wearing short shorts while Nishikata wears a scarf. |
| その目だれの目？ |
| Of course we weren't going to have a straight confession but I couldn't stop grinning like an idiot with how sweet it all was. From Nishikata realizing that all those teasing confessions maybe were Takagi's true feelings, Nishikata chasing after her, expressing his feelings in his own way and Takagi's reaction.... what a great ending! It was fun to see Mina, Yukari and Sanae take on the quest that Nishikata had prepared for Takagi and it was just great how they rushed to put everything back when they realized who it was really for. He really put in a lot of effort and I love it. It's amazing how this show has already had three seasons and how each one is better than the last. This anime season has had so many great shows but I think this one has been my favorite, I have so much fun with it and it just makes me happy to watch a new episode, so at the same time it's sad to see another season come to an end. I have to mention how much I love Rie Takahashi's performance as Takagi. She and Megumin are my favorite characters from her. Oh well, I guess that's it for now. Man, I'm really going to miss this, as much as I'm looking forward to the movie, I hope that's not going to be the last we see of the series. |
