“All mangaka are lolicons” truer words have never been spoken. Really fun episode today with the publishing party. As usual Hime is adorable and patient with her dad. If only he’d just be honest with her... Nadia continues to be best girl for me

The timeskip scene was actually quite encouraging today. “That’s not true” so is Goto sensei actually alive and in hiding somewhere? Comatose? Seems like his former staff know something based on the past 3 eps.

The episode is adorable, I like the part when Hime asks what is a Chandelier? Loli who is curious is indeed amazing, I thought Kakushi would give a good answer but in fact no, big chandelier is big chandelier, lol, and also it's just a disco ball wtf. I want to know what expression Kakushi will make when angry, Teacher is your lie.

OOH a year-end party, great relief for the mangakas, especially the authors. But ya know, the manga industry is lenient to costs so yeah...snother Kakushigoto: NO PARTY!? What da heck!?

Well, since it's a jab at "Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso (or Your Lie in April)", it's Christmas (Shiwasu) and it's secrets to keep mum about it. Quite hilarious as the expectations grow the discords of reality.

Never thought that "Sensei" would be used as a derogatory term though...it can be both good and bad, depending on the person and outcome (that is if the people in your circle is as twisted in mind). And Tomaruin the joker, you just spoiled the party...but thank God for another though. To see the light of Father Goto see the radiance of Hime...that's a good one.

It's a good thing that Hime is exposed to a party...but remember, the act of being a mangaka first and foremost must be hidden to oblivion, and Tomaruin's act...EHHHH bro you never learn your ways, don't you??? And then again, Hime is so kidfully misguided, I really feel bad for her plaintiful innocence. But for her to get scouted (even popular than Goto-sensei) is just the icing on the cake. Who knows though of the future that leads the way though.

This episode might be Tomaruin's foray to be finally thrown some shade from Goto, but in all fairness, that's a give or take consdiering his "kindness".

Back in the present day though, Goto-sensei missing? How can that be? That can't be a lie...another cliffhangers that deepens the mystery.

Well... another great episode. as always.
Hime is super cute. as always.
The Editor was f*cking annoying. as always.

This episode's foreshadowing was shorter than the previous one but what had we got is more than some of the previous episode had.

Pretty hilarious episode, maybe the funniest so far. Even the sad scene at the end was shorter than usual.
Koji Kumeta has always employed self-deprecating comedy about his profession as a mangaka in his works, but I think this series is the peak of that kind of humour.

Meh, most of this episode sucked. Save for the motivation part, humour was falling flat all the time. Also, Hime is pretty annoying. It was funny when she got "deeerp" effect couple episodes back but whenever she appears on the screen you know the scen will be really dumb.

That ending scene was too cryptic for my curious brain; I can't deal with the mystery anymore! It's given me more hope that Gotou is alive though

I don't think a characters name has ever suited them more than TomaRUIN's name; he is a walking calamity and a majority of the time, he is the source of all Gotou's problems hahaha

I thought the disco ball - chandelier - Cinderella conflation was pretty cute. It does seem more like something a kid younger than Hime would do, but we all have our moments. I get the feeling the Hime would actually be a good manga artist when she grows up, since those who always seem to be living in their own world are able to entertain you immensely when they crack the door open and show you that world.
Every day you can read a book or watch some anime is a good day!

First off, I like how the episode is called "Your Lie in December" an obvious jab at Your Lie in April since their all trying to keep the secrets hidden from Hime. Also, at the end of the episode about Goto-sensei being missing and "that's a lie" is definitely telling us that Goto is still alive.

My new favorite line this season is "Manga artists are just lolicons", Goto-sensei spitting out the facts here. I love how Hime didn't know what a chandelier was and later she thought that the chandelier was called a cinderella lol.

The editor almost fucked everything up though and that would've been bad. I do wonder what happened to Kakushi Goto in the present day though. I hope we get more info on that next week in episode 10.

The book says who dissapeared, which means 2 things,1st- kakushi gotou died(i don't think death is counted as dissappearance)
2nd- he is alive somewhere(alone/hospital...)only friends know where he is
Hope it's the 2nd one

The best part of the episode is when Hime scoleded her father for Running when he told her he is not a Sensei! I laughed so hard because Hime just looked so angry.

Ami and Rasuna looking beautiful in this episode.

Finally an ending where I am not almost crying tears of sadness.

However I felt bad that my man was working at a book store. =/

Glad to see that the hate I feel towards Tomaruin isn't just mine. Honestly, seeing him getting scolded by Kakushi was kinda satisfying but I wish the other editors would have recognized him xD

So... it seems one of Kakushi's assistants, Shiji, didn't become a mangaka in the end, uh? I mean, not that working at a book store is bad but I now feel kinda bad for the guy.

Based on given screen time, RASUNA seems to be a candidate for .......
Well, i can't say for sure, since it's a SLICE OF LIFE genre & has no ROMANCE genre.
Also, there's manga still going on and we don't know much about the side characters from the anime.

It's just a guess & not every setting like this ends up with the marriage of WIDOWER.

BTW, i don't think KAKUSHI is dead yet ; and the anime is still enjoyable. "His Death" is just a rumour on web from the very first episode ; even if its true, i am still pleasant. But its still annoying to see "the ending is sad" on many posts. That's because people tend to draw conclusions from one episode, which is a sad reality for them. Well, let's see through the end.

Another great episode, can't believe that he still manages to hide that he's a manga artist xD

Finally! We know a little more, so Gotou Sensei is listed as disappeared but his subordinate said he didn't, so wtf happened! And judging that guy changed jobs it means that something happened...
The more episodes i see the more i get worried about the ending scenes.

Loved that Hime was scouted and got more business cards than her dad - Highlights of the show were “All mangaka are lolicons” and Hime scolding her dad for running after he told her he wasn't a Sensei.

So one of Goto's assistants is now working in a bookstore - so did Tomaruin ruin the company or did it close after whatever happened to Goto?

The book title was "mangaka's that went missing" - so his mangaka persona disappeared, does that mean Hime found out and he quit or that he died and to keep his secret they pretended he was a salary-man?

3 Ep. to go - I hope they don't make us hang on for an OVA to find out what happens - that would be too cruel.

I'm seeing everyone's hate to Tomaruin but somehow I still love him.

The last scene where Shiji just stares straight ahead and says 'That's a lie' was creepy af. Also, I wonder if he opened the bookstore himself or if his family passed it down to him.

Tomaruin: Last year we lost Goto-sensei to a tragic incident
Goto: Quit telling everyone I'm dead!
Tomaruin: Sometimes I can still hear his voice...

I'm still convinced he's dead though.

Gotou past really amazing. The lifes of Mangaka in the end of the year surely hard enough to get pass. Fortunately, kawaii Hime always be there to give you some encouragement sensei! The party scenes were hilarious too. Tomaruin always ruin everything, lol, i would really kill him, if he a real person on my life. Fortunately for him, tho, Gotou such a kind person that never goes crazy like hell to people he believes.

This is some of the best episode. Using a plainness of young Hime was also good to give more satisfaction to the interaction between Gotou and his daughter. Such a heart-warming episode, as always comes from Kakushigoto. So, for the next episode, can i know the real reason why Gotou gone? And why his part really show a deep sadness to Hime? The mystery get its peak, and the drama always comes to its finishing. Can not wait all of that!

So he's missing? At least better than dead. If he's truly dead then there will be public announcement but since he's declare as missing,then there's still hope. Maybe he's in coma.
