| Minami waking up to a day of blessings...and wanting to make par, she's feeling all hyped up. With Haruka out to the U.S. Masters and Ayaka doing her usual livestream, finding others is just not in question, not to the 3 old guys who broke their backs easily. Desperate for someone, even a call would suffice, but Haruka is still stuck with personal affairs, so Minami is truly on her own playing solo golf. Minami dealing with her solo golf, as well as trying to hit her perfect number 3, nothing's simply going her way, no matter how hard she tries. That is until the final hole, which Minami surprisingly got par, and wanting to share this to both girls, both Haruka and Ayaka certainly entertained her, and she'll gladly follow them. You've come a long way Minami, may your love for golf grow alongside the girls who motivated you all the more! A good CGDCT show that does what it should, the evolution from OVA to anime is awe. |

| Nice finale. Minami playing golf alone was somehow entertaining to watch. This was a very good and funny show. Definitely the best golf anime so far. I'll miss these girls. A second season with more matches and Hina would be awesome. |

| As per usual, other than the interesting storyboard by Amemiya, a drab and boring episode. Seriously man, it’s a visually stunning show thanks to the Ex-Gainax staff, but that’s really the only good thing I can say. The premise isn’t the worst ever, and it’s not totally unwatchable, but it’s just so boring with nothing interesting about it. First episodes matter a lot, especially for an original anime, but this one does nothing to grab attention. The characters are dry as the a desert, and the story is just the usual main character suddenly decides to play a sport thing. MC’s dreams don’t feel real at all, just made up on the spot. YoStar keeps wasting time on originals and random manga adaptations they shouldn’t touch. They should just focus on making stuff for the IPs they already have. |

| These girls.. these fucking girls.. they’ve made the last 3 months so fun and motivated me to get into golf. Idc, one of the best sports anime of all time and it’s all thanks to the amazing cast and realistic approach to storytelling. Minami starting off ass at golf makes her eventually hitting par today that much more impactful. It feels like we grew up right alongside her and that’s the greatest compliment for this sort of story I think having Minami tackle the course solo today was a great choice as it 1: reinforced how big a part of her life Ayaka and Haruka have become and 2: gave her a chance to put in her best ever performance. I went from laughing at how silly her over the top reactions were to gushing like a proud older brother when she shot for par!! The way she had no one around to celebrate with her broke me tho 😭 So glad they got a nice reunion at the end of the episode and this is still only the beginning of Minami’s golfing journey. Can’t believe my girls are gone I need s2!!!! Such a great ride |

| The real golf is friends you made along the way, I guess. The moment Minami realized that she was alone really hit hard emotionally ngl. All and all, a very nice episode that summarizes what Minami has learned and the relationships she has built Potential sequel? probably not.  |
| Really nice Finale Am going to miss seeing the girls having fun golfing together I would love to see this get a second season. |
| Minami was blessed with the goddess of luck but the people she need beside her were missing due to work... guess one can't have everything. Minami don't be disappointed, we all saw you making your first par! |
   |
| The best original anime of the season! I will miss Minami, Haruka and Aoba so much! They teased a possible season 2 at the end of the episode. That means there's a chance we might get a second season in the near future?! I really hope so! |
| It was a little lonely for Minami since she was alone for most of the finale, but in the end, she got to hang out with her two favorite people. It's one of the better shows this season, I hope this gets renewed but we'll see. |
 |
| im going to miss sorairo fridays, love this show. its nice she got her first par alone, it gives her something to chase after again with the group. |
| Oh no, it is over: ( This show was super comfy, I'm going to miss these girls, this episode felt a bit lonely with Minamin not having anyone to celebrate with after her first Par but that scene with HAM hugging made up for it. |
| going to miss this dork and her two friends |
| Great ending, I absolutely loved this series. I can wholeheartedly say that the anime staff created something magical with Sorairo Utility. |
| This is just great, top 1 of this season, a great way to end a Friday by watching this masterpiece for the night, for it is quiet, enjoyable and fun. All the characters are great and this applies not only to the main three, but also to the secondary ones. I hope Minami, Haruka and Ayaka will still come back in the sequel, in any form of TV or movie. |
| yostar staff did a great job directing this super fun and comfy golfing CGDCT i'm gonna miss these fucking girls man so fun to watch |
 |
| Fun series with a lot of energetic cheerful characters. Plenty of comedy as well, I could definitely watch a 2nd season. 7/10 |

| Great show, loved the comradery between the three girls. Was that little spout of loneliness really that necessary though, in the final episode for that matter? XD |
| My 311th completed series chronologically. For the record, I extended it a 7/10 rating. |
| First things first, I loved the series, I think that's obvious enough if you take a look at my list... It showcases perfectly why I love Bocchi the Rock! and CGDCT in general. The question is: Will there be a sequel? There is potential, they've even hinted at a path the series can take, but they've not announced anything. To me, a sequel is not needed, but it would be definitely appreciated. The main reason I don't think it's going to happen, though, is that I can't see many ways to make 12 more interesting episodes; it seems like they were already running out of ideas with episodes 8 and 9. Yet, the quote is still true: "A man can hope, dream even and sometimes his dreams come true" - E.L. James 8.15/10 |

| @GakutoDeathGlare It made the scene at the golf batting center that came right after much more impactful. |

| @Avvenirista Yeah, I guess and understand that's what they were going for. Think I still would have liked to see them all celebrate her first "par" together though. |
| Minami went solo this episode. As Ayaka said, it's like leaving her nest. Surprisingly, Minami seems to be getting the hang of it. But when she hit her first par, I felt a bit sad just like her. It reminds me that golf is supposed to be a social activity. It reminds me of this philosophical question: If a tree falls in the middle of the forest and nobody is there to witness it, was there a sound at that moment? |

| - No beach episode with Haruka in yellow bikini as finale? Me: *sad* - Finale with Minami showing us how much she has grown as a golf player + how close she became with the rest of the cast? Me: "Good enough" And so, Minami finally got her first Par after 12 episodes. Not gonna lie, for a moment I thought the show would seriously mess with her one final time during that last shot. Good to see it wasn't the case in the end and she managed to get Par. Decent show overall. Not the best out there when it comes to the CGDCT/Iyashikei genre but I still had a good time watching most of the episodes. Episode 9 with Ayaka creating the "Keep a Green" initiative being definitely my favorite one. 6/10 |
| Minami did her first par!! But alone though lol, but it was good to see her doing golf alone for the last episode. Fine show overall, I think it's classic and has nothing special but it's still fun to see girls doing golf, nothing more than that |
 |
| Nothing special. Birdie Wing did it better |
Cross  AngeHey guys check my profile for current airing season anime recommendation (guaranteed best taste) |
| So glad they didn't finish with a beach episode, lol. I was worried about that based on the ending to the previous episode. I though that would be a very poor choice for a show like this. Anyway, it was a very cute ending. A nice way to end the season. I don't know if it will, but I really hope this gets a second season. First with Birdie Wing, then I adored Tonbo! and now this series. It seems I have become a fan of golf girl anime. :) From the technical side, there really was nothing special about any aspect of the show. However, it was always fun, cute and never boring. I enjoyed all the characters, even some of the goofy side characters. The recurring bit with old men confidently teeing up only to throw their back out and be carted away in an ambulance cracked me up more than it probably should, haha. This would be a show I would recommend to CGDCT fans, but probably not too many others. Technically, I should probably give this a low end 6, but I enjoyed it on the level of a low end 8. So, I think I will just split that difference and go with a ... Score: 7.08 |

I’m going to miss this show. Maybe it doesn’t deserve a 9/10, but I’m going to give it because I found it so charming. I never imagined it would be this entertaining when I decided to watch the first episode. My first shot comes with the decision to watch this anime; it was just about going for it and seeing whether you nailed it or made a mistake in your choice. What we got was a slice of life about girls playing golf and strengthening their bonds of friendship. The anime didn’t falter in that regard, especially with such good animation. It’s pleasant to watch and fun; it might even make you develop a fondness for the sport and want to dive into that world. Remember, it’s hard, which is why our dear protagonist is still struggling. It was nice to see these three having fun. I’ve never played golf before, never even tried. But animes like this always make me think about trying. |
| Nothing special but solid overall, especially liked the tight visuals. Might have liked it more if this went a bit more into Minami's school life. 5-6/10 |
| there is still room for season 2! |
 |
| Good episode to end on. I liked how Minami learned to lock in and enjoy golf by herself. Her feeling a little down and then meeting up with the other two again was heartwarming. Overall, still a merely decent show. Very pretty and breezy. I wish I liked it more, but it didn't sweep me off my feet. |
