The 2nd (and last) day of the festival.
Kaguya went to have Shirogane make her a heart balloon, but a certain thing had to be exchanged to get it. Tsubame already knows what to do with Ishigami. And Kaguya spent the day with Shirogane, although they went through some moments xD
Everything went well, until Shirogane told her that...WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN IN THE NEXT ONE?!!!!
Very good chapter, the next one will be the last one. Let's see what happens there.
Very good the reference to "Take on Me" xD

I'm already prepared to give 10/10 next week.

My doctor has always told me to smoke. He even explains himself: “Smoke, my friend. Otherwise someone else will smoke in your place.”

Shirogane is unflappable, he's a real man. Rare to see in anime.

Hayasaka idol, she's the best girl. Gyaru and idol, I love it

Loved the episode, especially Miyuki and Kaguya on their culture festival date.

Miyuki is clearly calm for most of it because he's realised the date is his last resort to get her to confess, he's obviously trying to make it as perfect as possible for Kaguya, and it's working on her.

Would not be surprised if it's revealed that Miyuki is also the phantom thief, to keep Chika out of the way with her investigation, and maybe he manipulated the Ishigami/Tsubame situation so that resolves positively too.

Really looking forward to next week's episode!

i love how everything is playing out. Idk if he completely stopped on it but to me it seems shirogane is done with the games they do and is wanting to be upfront about it which I like, at least from what I saw it seems like he didn't do his classic mind games and was being honest and upfront about it. also I love whats going on with ishigami and tsubame and cant wait to see the result!

Interesting... Everything leads to Kaguya's answer, which may be definitive, given the circumstances. Next episode does sound promising!

Another Week Another Kaguya episode well..., An obligatory Maki scene fine by me I want more Maki scenes why can't she be part of the group she's kind of entertaining, Shirogane has had Kaguya in his snare for a long time right when she sat down

Kaguya you actually don't know what Tsubame is in right now and dug her own grave of opportunity to let Shirogane confess to her

Oh damn Miyuki taking the first move look at Kaguya she's gone moe, I was about to say that it was going great until that cliffhanger can't wait for it.

I loved the 1968 planet of the apes reference during Chika confession. Surely gave me some ptsd.

Great episode though, Peak Romcom incoming.

Man... this episode was so fun and so frustrating at the same time. So many confessions and a bunch of emotions running around the academy. But, then, in the end, it became so sad. I'm rooting for all of them and I don't want anything horrible happening in their lives. They're all sweet.

I adore Kaguya and Shirogane. Please, I don't wanna see either of them sad. Just stay together. Please. I hope the last episode will be the confession episode. Can't wait.

The finest episode so far. Are they saving everything for the end or something, despite being quite generous with excessive thorny animated scenes for the most part of the show? 5/5.

Note for the 1-hour-long finale: It appears something to write home about, yet in fact a failure in term of progression. If A-1 had omitted the mediocre rap battle and everything in its association, as well as diving into the major subject, The School Festival Arc, much sooner, they could achieve this outcome only within 12 episodes, instead of 14. Still, there is leftover from the budget.

Although it's about to end, I'm not really sad at all. From Episode 1 to 11 was a whole blast, it was really different from the past seasons of Kaguya-sama.

Anyway, what a great episode! Looking forward for the ending.

Prez planning for his own final showdown alternatively made the festival more fun for everyone, LOL

That "Heart for Heart exchange" was a genius play by Prez. But he technically got rejected by Kaguya cause she didn't return the heart....

___ ___ ___

LOL @ Iino... she got a "little bit" desperate for being called "cute"... and got BONKED.

Meanwhile Kaguya has been going all over the place thinking about Ishigami's troubles...

And Hayasaka is doing a concert... OMG... if she wasn't Kaguya's servant, she could totally have become a real School Idol.

___ ___ ___

And then Prez revealed his plan to leave Japan... and making it so there isn't another festival since he'll be skipping a grade.

Some great references this episode, "Take on Me" and I think what was a reference to Resident Evil?

I thought we would learn more about the thief but the only main new lead was the reference to clocks, like in the intro. I don't mind though because that isn't even close to the main event.

Kaguya beating around the bush for a heart, when they were talking about prices I was wondering what she couldn't possibly afford. I'm a little annoyed at her, that was a perfect time to give it to him.

Shinomiya screwing over Ishigami without realizing it was great, she only had best intentions in mind (well I guess it was mainly so she could also confess but intially she seemed more concerned with striking out any competition). Chika getting rid of her interest was entertaining, especially the way Shinomiya covered Tsubame's eyes afterwards. Lino and her guys was funny too, exactly the thing she had been dreaming of only for Ishigami to shoo her away from them. I feel like once she learns more about Ishigami she is sure to accept.

Oooh boy the culture festival date. That was nice, luck really was on her side this time. I found it funny, it basically was a reminder of how they got screwed over every other time. Once all the normal obstacles were out of the way though Shirgoane had to drop that bombshell on her. Really brought down my mood, that's for sure.

I'm still excited for the hour long episode tomorrow though! I just have to know what happens! This episode was good buildup (along with being a good episode) and I'm sure the finale will be spectacular.

P.S. Maki really is great.

That's kinda sad for Ishigami because Tsubame isn't mean at all but she clearly doesn't want to be with him, except if we get a sudden twist with her accepting but I doubt it will happen (Chika has still the best way to refuse people's confessions LMAO) and now Shirogane and Kaguya could have their school festival time together with some divination (probably that it's right, and who knows about the bed part) but now sudden twist: Shirogane is gonna study abroad a skipping a grade, so it's his last school festival :o damn that's another reason to hurry the confession now (and it will be never too fast for them lol)

Ok the 'AHA - Take On Me' music video joke in the beginning of the episode was HILARIOUS, especially considering that Shippai is a complete ripoff of AHA's 80 synth-pop contemporary Dead Or Alive's 'Spin me Right Round'. You can definitely tell that the producers are big fans of 1980s synth-pop music.

What a great episode. Jam-packed with awesome moments.

Kaguya's VA was perfect this episode. Really love her voice acting, when she's playing the straight man or when she's panicking. That "are" was perfection.

The Kaguya-Tsubame bit was gold, as was Iino being hit on. Miko hitting Ishigami is GIF-worthy.

The longer the festival goes the more i feel Kaguya's mental deteriorate. Unsuspecting wing women Kashiwagi coming in for Kaguya after Shirogane check-mates her with the hearts, however Kaguya's glass cannon mode fully kicks in for what seems to be the rest of the episode. Seeing the other side of Kaguya is truly something. I mean in general comparing her now to s1 is like night and day. Didn't help that Shirogane was being very upfront, probably due to the fact that he had his future on his mind and was just creating some small talk for build up, otherwise i would of thought he suddenly grew even larger balls of steel. But as a good cliffhanger we see him hand an unknowing and love struck Kaguya the approval forms.

Hayasaka idol is real Hayasaka idol is real. Fastest neuron activation i've had especially at 4am. You know i immediately start cheering at the sight of it. Ah, finally another reason i am now able to peaceful pass from this world.

Kaguya actually gutting Ishigami with that misinterpretation between him and Tsubame. Nice to see that Kaguya does want this to be a success for Ishigami, not just because it suits her needs, but also because she's just a genuinely good friend at heart. Well i guess its good that she at least realized what was happening after unknowingly digging Ishigami's grave for like 10 mins, could practically feel the cold feet Kaguya got after realizing her mistake.

Loved all the references this episode, the "Take On Me" theme at the beginning as well as the kinda resident evil theme with zombies, clunky character movement and room changing. The fortune teller trip was alsowild
In general there were quite a lot of cliffhangers this episode, but ngl they are really teasing us with Ishigami and Tsubame's deal. Man i'm ready for anything at this point.

Even though others have beaten me to the punch, and as trivial as this part was, I just have to voice my admiration of the "Take On Me" reference at the beginning. It's fascinating how in-tune these guys are to western culture.

Can anyone help me out and point me in the direction of the OST at 3:16?

It's at the beginning of the episode, when Kaguya is peaking through the door at Miyuki, saying "stare". The instrumental is a mix between an electrobeat and upbeat string instruments, it sounds like. What's the name of the track, and does it appear on an original soundtrack album?
Was the season three OST released yet, or does the track feature on an earlier one?

I think season 3 OST is not yet released. (only 2-3 track, the moe-moe kyun one and that one hayasaka song). And yes, that is Season 3 OST

Perfect. Thanks for the comprehensive reply. I had found the full Hayasaka song release, yet was confused that I couldn't find any of the other newer music from throughout the season 3. (I know Season 3 sometimes uses instrumental music from earlier seasons too, and didn't know if this one was an existing track from before.) But thanks for confirming it's exclusive to the Season 3 OST and that it wasn't released yet. 👌
