Thus Non Non Biyori is complete for now.

Renge and Shiori are truly a fearsome combo.

More about the Dagashiya and Renge connection, being her that inspired Renge artistic vein in the past.

And they didn't forget Natsumi and Aoi.

Now a bow in respect of this legendary slice of life. Being my top 3 of the genre.

sorry to say it but the anime covered the whole manga so we will not get more non non biyori unless they make some original content.

The hints at a potential sequel down the line make me happy. I don’t really care if it’s anime original or not, as long as it’s good I’ll take it.

At the end of the movie is kinda implicit that Natsumi and Aoi talk to each other, so that was cool, about this OVA, the continuation.

The manga main series was fully finished in the normal season. This OVA covers the first 2 chapters the spin-off manga Non Non Biyori Remember. Which have 9 chapters total.

I didn’t understand you a little, did she come to their village or did they just talk on the phone?

They just talk on the phone. But what im saying is, the anime production could just forget Aoi for being a movie-only character, but including that phone scene was important to Natsumi character closure.

Well, as far as I can see from the raw episode, the entire episode except for this scene is an adaptation of most of the material from the bonus volume of the manga. So I don't know what their intentions were, but it really looks like a way to give Natsume some kind of ending at the end of the show (or franchise?).

The only thing I didn't understand was the ending of their dialogue. Was it just a wholesome demonstration that they are still friends, a metaphor for saying goodbye to the viewer, or really a hint of a sequel?

They still have about two thirds or half of the bonus manga volume left lol. Well, unless the author decides to start a sequel manga about their more mature lives.

wow, I was caught by surprise when both MAL & AniList gave me a notification last night. how could i forget such an OVA was coming out?!

Once again, very pleased to see more Kaede content in this OVA. wouldn't have known she used to be a badminton player, eh. and again, this demonstrates how Renge really brings out the innocence in her. wholesome.

interesting to see the Okinawa movie be loosely linked with this episode. Glad to see it wasn't forgotten... which should mean, that everything for NNB that has been adapted in anime form must be all in one chronological timeline, hm.

very nice episode, would be nice if we get more!

Ig this is the end of this series. The episode was so good. I thought this episode was not going to feel like when I was watching this anime but I was totally wrong the animation, the characters, their interactions with each other and the games they play are all feels same, comfortable and relaxing

Same reception like that of Nonstop: good to know, yet unnecessary, even with its best story of the candy shopkeeper. As the closer of the franchise, it was going nowhere.

Everything and more I could've wanted from an OVA.

Natsumi's homework scene was pretty funny, but I really liked Candy Store and Renge's moments in this episode. Maybe it was because of those Crayons that Renge became such a good artist.

That final scene with Natsumi and Aoi made me pretty sad, I really loved that movie and I hope they do meet again.

This truly seems to be the end, huh? They even combined the visuals of all three OPs into one.

That said, beautiful 13th episode. It was so perfect. From Natsumi being lowkey teased by Shiori and Renge (absolutely love the combo they make together) to that heartfelt second half with Kaede being the reason for Renge to start getting interested in drawing.
And not to mention that even Aoi made a brief appearance. Seriously, that was such a pleasant surprise.

It's hard to believe it's been nearly 9 years since this wholesome masterpiece introduced me to SoL and hooked me on the genre. It will forever be in my top-5 favorite anime.

I also felt a bit of melancholy at the start of that scene. Until, Aoi's laughter. Then, I felt happy for Natsumi that she has a cherished friend. :)

Their "meet again" line was said during a demonstration of the milky way, a symbol of the reunion of divided people in Japanese culture. So they will definitely meet again.

My god totally forgot this was coming out this week, yet another wholesome episode and a very nice closure to the series. At this point they have already adapted most of the original material, only a little bit left in the bonus manga unadapted...Really hope that the author would go for a sequel, NNB is easily one of the best CGDCT sol out there.

Loved the interaction in between smol renge and dagashiya as usual. Also they added in a little bonus with natsumi and aoi, which was really heartwarming.

Kokko chan did such a great job voicing smol renge , and the addition of shiori into the mix really spice up the things more, sadly we won't get to see anymore of this unless the author decides to restart the series..

I guess it's really the end now. I will miss this ; -;

this show has always felt immortal to me, I always see clips of it posted on various sites, youtube edits that often blow up, and general discussion about it. because of this I felt like it would always be there and so it feels more surreal than most that this series is over. and what a great series it was ^^

Thank you Silverlink, finally this Anime come to end! Yeah every Anime/Manga has ending...

I think anyone agree that Non Non Biyori is the legendary Slice of Life Anime! I give it 100/10

Minor Spoiler:
So about the OVA, I like that homework part, when Natsumi do DNA symbol, it's so funny. I'm also can see how Shiori at school lol and her first homework. And the flashback about Candy Store and Renge long time ago, it's so hella cute moment af

Dagashiya and Renge moments are so good. Other than that it was the usual and it was fun. It was nice seeing Natsumi and Aoi talking over the phone. I'd love to see Aoi visiting their village someday. Maybe we'll get a movie of that.
