Sigh, me sad now.
And thus, they lived happily ever after... .

So, to sum things up:

If you're into cosplay and makeup, you'll probably have had a great time with this season.

If that's not the case and you've been hooked by the romance and the developments and interactions between the characters, then this season has been VERY CHEESY, boring and ridiculous.

What an absolutely brilliant final episode, but please please please don’t let this be the actual ending for the Anime adaptation.

Absolutely love this series from beginning to end just like the first one. They took everything that was great about season one and the manga and continue to develop it even more here to make it just as great if not better. I would say in the end, they have dealt with the subtle emotions and feelings of all of the individual main characters here right to the end. This seemed to take a lot more precedence in season two on average. I’ve felt a lot more than the budding romance that we got in season one. This was incredibly unique I’ve found from my experience of other series out there, however it has meant that we haven’t gotten a full romantic conclusion yet with Marin and Gojo. At least not one we can be entirely happy with.
I like how she asked in the end if he would take a selfie with her, which in a way is very much the ‘modern day equivalent’ of saying you are in a relationship with somebody to the rest of the world, especially if you posted online. Perhaps that was the easiest way for her to go about it as she’s still not quite ready (even for someone like her) to potentially risk the relationship they currently have right now for a little bit longer. I feel like that is what they were showing at the end with the flashback moments of all of the things they’ve done together and seeing him come out of his shell, and that’s why she came to say that instead.

Hope her phone didn’t go over the edge there.😂

Please though, don’t let this be the final season. With the amazing quality we’ve had across the board with both seasons 1 and 2, it would be heartbreaking to leave it here instead and have to go over to the manga. Nothing against reading manga source materials of course, but it just can’t compare really in this case. I feel to the quality we’ve gotten from this anime adaptation with the amazing subtleties, truly beautiful background work both from photo references (clearly used from real life and painted and rented on top to create some more detailed scenes) and fully hand painted on top of the sometimes full ‘body animation shots’ that are impossibly rare in anime these days, especially for every day body clothing movements.
It truly brings the world of cosplay to life in the way we’ve never seen before, and may never see again in anime form.😭❤️
This, along with our star cast’s budding relationship, is something we just aren’t ready to give up just yet, and I’ll keep my fingers tightly crossed until we get any definitive news.

this season is total disappointment
only few funny moments for me, boring and more guide how to be cosplayer and how to behave in it than anime.. and ofcourse failed confession
total downgrade from season 1...
(づ ̄ ³ ̄)づ ちゅっ ちゅっ キス (´。✪ω✪。`)

I hate it when anime/manga that I enjoyed ends, especially when there could be much longer plot and when I love main heroine :P

I wish I had magic glasses that let me see real world in anime colors ;)

It looks really good as a whole but this season was definitely a lot more boring content-wise than the first season. Not like I was a fan of season 1 but there were at least episodes and certain moments that stood out to me as really good-great in there. This season was lacking that, and couldn't find it much even with the group cosplay in this episode. I think Gojo progressed a bit, which was fine, but that was really about it. A lot of the other interactions and moments this season felt lacking to me to be honest.

Nice Last episode, and it looks like Marin fail to confess... But a selfie with someone you love is a great start!
Hope another season soon and Marin will confess for real soon.

Abysmal drop in quality from the first season. This show is by far the biggest disappointment of the year for me. Hopefully they can right the ship if there is a 3rd season.

So Mira is being played by Shinju Inui, Claire is being played by Sajuna Inui (or Juju), Sophia is being played by Akira Ogata, Charlotte is being played by Miyako, and Rose is being played by yours truly, Marin Kitagawa, and Emma is being played by Amane Himeno, real name Chitose Amano. Will Marin actually confess her feelings in this episode, or will we have to wait until next season?

So Akira ended up being a huge fan of Marin, and simply gets EXTREMELY NERVOUS around her, which is why she didn’t want to be around her, and Sajuna only did this cosplay for Shinju’s sake, which I suspected given how her puppy dog eyes got Sajuna to even entertain the idea of this cosplay to begin with, so it makes sense.

At least we know that Akira is just the ultimate Marin glazer, and she aggressively gave Wakana proper credit for making the costume in the first place, which I loved to see given Akira’s more timid personality. It’s such a contrast.

And it seems that despite Marin saying that she was gonna do it, SHE DIDN’T CONFESS HER FEELINGS TO WAKANA, MEANING THAT WE WOULD HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL SEASON 3 (ASSUMING THERE WILL BE ONE) BEFORE ANY PROGRESS IS MADE ON THAT FRONT.

Well I’ll be looking forward to it!

All that and she doesn't tell him sigh
Note: I don’t lazily watch 3-5 episodes, biasedly compare to other anime, or unfairly judge by surface level similarities. With every anime I start, I watch the entire series, both Japanese Sub & English Dub, then judge each anime based on what they present, to give an honest and fair rating.

I really hope we get a season three if not they should have had her confess there but then again I haven't read the manga so I don't know if she ever does.

Akira-san’s misunderstanding scene and revelation was right on the point, lmao. Of course it wasn’t going to be her hating Princess, am I right? Her “huh?” being the loudest of the lot was hilarious and Marin-chan finding out about it was fantastic!

Very solid season, overall. For the proposal being reduced to a selfie shot is hilarious but pretty much sums up the romantic progression this season, lol. I like seeing this vulnerable and doubtful side of Marin-chan but there’s got to be a limit (well a little).



Respect to Inui-san for not ruining the moment for her younger sister. I hate horror stuff too and the fact that she was learning about the final bits of the plot in person was funny from third person view but I would’ve crumbled for sure if I were in her shoes.

Genki Op & Kawaii kowai that really got me into the tone of the show, going to miss this for sure and I’ve found a new artist to look forward to as well!
Score 8/10 at MAL.

I'm loved this season way better than season 1. This had a better OP and EN and way cooler ways to be eye candy. I loved the puppet scenes this season even if there were only 2. I hope we get a season 3 due to me interested in how they would adapt the rest of the story that people say went downhill. 10/10 for me.

So after an entire season of getting ready to confess, she doesn't confess, but instead takes a selfie and drops her phone. Just wow. Talk about bait and switch.

And this misunderstanding with Akira was just too obvious to serve as a valid plot twist - everyone and their mother saw it coming from a mile away. I didn't expect Akira to be so psychotic about it, but I knew this was coming from the start.

We got some more siscon brooding going on, again, nothing we already didn't know.

At least the shoot was fun, they did a good job with the props and stuff. Gojo did well, though again, when does he not?

A disappointing finale all around. It just felt like the writer went on vacation before they'd written this chapter and it was up to the interns to finish the job. Not great.

Since this episode marks the end of this season, and I see a lot of people saying we got no development on our couple's relationship, I would like to point what I see as progression, "cosplay-wise":

1. Arisa's cosplay (the bunny girl): We see for the first time Gojou being comfortable among a large group of people, not just Marin and fellow cosplayers, and not only that, he realizes that having a kind of traumatic experience as a child does not mean he has to be ashamed of what he likes, as his new friends tenderly accepts him as part of the group, and they encourage him to keep working on the dolls he loves. We also see Marin and Gojou "facing" the idea of being a couple, as Nowa (and everyone else) thought that they were already dating. For the first time, we see Marin being more "physical" on her relation with Gojou, when shen gives him a kiss... yes, when he is in a large costume, and he thought she was clicking her tongue, but it's still something. And more importantly, we see for the first time Gojou being "possessive" over Marin.

2. Rei's cosplay: We continue with Gojou's progression as he not only has friends now, but he also is willing to rely on them, as when he asked Kensei to teach Marin "how to act manly". This arc was heavely focused on Gojou being more open to other people, so there isn't much to say about it, BUT, we have that final scene when he's looking at Marin on stage and recalls that time he "fell in love" with hina dolls. I think this is pretty important, as so far, we knew (and Gojou knew) that he felt attracted to Marin, but I think this is the time he realizes he is actually in love with her.

3. Rose's cosplay (the nuns): This arc started with Marin's misunderstanding of Gojou being all in for their relationship, and, despite some people think this was made just for the lols, I stick with Marin's own words: "Seriosuly, I'm so shocked over this, I can't get it over. I mean, I thought we'd finally be able to start going out. I should really tell Gojou-kun that I like him, that we shloud go out". THIS is the set-up for a final season, with a proper declaration from her. This is the moment Marin realizes that she can't keep going with things the way the've been so far, that she NEEDS more. She's not comfortable with just being Gojou's friend, she need them to be dating, and she's resolute of telling him her feelings, despite her being afraid of being rejected... and of course, she will not be able to do so on her first try, did you really think we were getting a confession this season? but anyway, she already put her mind on it, and it's just a matter of time now. As a bonus, I would like to point how Marin asked for Gojou's "permission" of using a bought cosplay. It was a really short scene, but I feel it's actually really important, as their whole relationship so far has been revolving around Gojou making Marin's costumes, so, in a way, this is him telling her that they can still be together, even if he's not "being useful". He just likes being around her, and this is such a subtle way of saying it.

All this makes a pretty solid season for me, and I didn't even say a word of other characters own presentation and development, the most interesting clearly being Amano, as he is kind of a grown up version of Gojou.


Add to that a flawless work from CloverWorks on animation and a marvelous OST, and I think this season is even better than the first one, which I already loved.
