| Miri's mother....well that was awkward. Still, I'm glad to see the kid being happy with our two main guys again. They really look like parent guardians out in the public. Miri's smile is still bright as ever. Rei and Kazuki has been a great influence to her. |
 |
| “Guess it’s time for the dream to end” Man, why PA works gotta do this to me? I was so happy to see Miri mom back and glad she turned over a new leaf/finally got her life together. But CANCER?? Why can’t she just be happy with her daughter of her own volition? Cmon PA works don’t hurt this girl more ๐ I think it’s been hinted at since a few episodes ago with the defector that rei and kazuki will end up defecting from their organisation now that they have something to protect, but the interesting part will be seeing how that unfolds over these last few eps |
 |
| This episode was honestly just pain 3 more episodes to go and I can only see things getting more dramatic now I wonder how it will end |
 |
| Christmas is coming up...but Miri's mother Misaki showing herself in front of the daycare where both Kazuki and Rei were going to pick her up, what's her purpose? Of course, any kind of semblance that Miri has for her mother, you can't beat a child's biological link with their parents. Of course, with the innocent child fawning over their adult influences, how could they say no, especially when Kazuki's getting all furious and flamed. But as to the question of "why now", it's a personal karma of health-related issues like cancer that caused her to lose her voice and her man. But at the behest of wanting Miri at the expense of her own gain, even Rei is also cautious of her taking care of Miri and living a honest life of a future. The reason: Rei's father Ogino sensing that Miri's inclusion has made both Kazuki and Rei's assassin job sloppy, so much so that Kyutaro has to contact her mother to come fetch Miri before all hell turns loose, since they both killed her father in the first place. And in doing so, taking a family day out with Miri is fitting for the buddy assassins in fun and laughter. Weenie Kazuki, haha lols. But reality hits closer than home when Miri mentions about her mother, knowing full well that this will be the last time that they will see her. It's heartwarming to even see Rei take charge of the day out to grasp as much time as possible before they say goodbye, and both buddy daddies were certainly changed because of Miri. It's sad to see Miri go, but the job has to be done. It's time to wake up from the dream, and as much as I'm crying onion tears in pain, it's time to move on. |

| this episode had that happy->sad->happy cycle goin on why do i get the feeling that the end will be a tragedy it would be better if im wrong |
 |
| I was sobbing the entire time. Man, what a bitter-sweet episode. Miri’s mom seemed to have gotten better but she’s got a little time left to spend with Miri. I feel so much for Kazuki, Miri going straight to hug her mom after daycare, giving his time and showing effort to raise Miri, and being torn apart wanting to be with her but knowing what’s best for Miri. After we’ve gotten used to their family dynamic, seeing Miri get taken back by her mother after one last outing with her papas made me feel so sad. Surprisingly enough, Rei handled it pretty well and enjoyed his time with Miri, but he also looked heartbroken. Kazuki and Rei have changed in my opinion. At first, I thought that this would be all fluff, but they decided to give the characters the consequences from their actions. |
| This show reached the next level and I think I somewhat called the events from this episode. What a rollercoaster of emotions. |

| I see ferris wheel and I know something super bad will happen. That last bit was emotional but well that's the reality for now... Miri's not with the buddies anymore:( I just hope her mom doesn't pull something weird though. |
 |
| Is Miri's mom "really" dying or is she faking just to get Miri back for something? |
| HACKs! ๐คข๐คฎ |
| That was an emotional episode how they gonna leave mili by her mother that she has cancer and want to make nice memories with mili. |

| If you reply back to me and I never respond, I lost interest and don't care. Sorry about that. |
| I knew I'm in for an emotional rollercoster when I saw Nitro is involved and I was not dissapointed. I honestly can't predict which way the story will go. |
 |
| Now here I am feeling all empty and lonely, such a lovely place to end with them going to that ride and all agreed they had reached the peak and the journey was over but I don't want it to end : ( |
| Well miri's mother deserved all that is happening to her, that's karma but I guess this was the best option and props to kyu-chan to make it happen, who knows what would've happen if they still kept miri and with the organization behind them. maybe we will see, there's still 3 chapters left. |
| Aside from the utter devastation I feel over this episode, I don't trust Miri's mom. Something's fishy, and giving her back to her mom really wouldn't be a good environment for Miri, even with the danger that staying with her dads brings. I really hope that this won't end badly for Miri and her dads. |

| The best outcome would be if Kazuki and Misaki got married. All three knows and agrees, that Miri's happines is the most important. |
 |
| Wow this episode threw around my emotions like crazy. First Miri's mom showing up out of nowhere, she wanted Miri back and she knew where Rei & Kazuki were. Miri's mom doesn't have long to live but Kazuki doesn't want to hear her sob story and just hates her throughout the episode. Kugi told the mom where they were, he said to Kazuki & Rei, Its either giving Miri to her mom or betraying the organization. Kazuki & Rei giving Miri the best day of her life before sending her off with her mom, that was the most wholesome thing to see in the episode. The 2 dads really are incredible and Miri adored them. Now the questions remains, will we see Miri somewhere in the last 3 ep's? |
  |
| The facial expressions have been consistently good but I feel like they were particularly expressive in this episode. I could feel every bit of Kazuki and Rei's pain when looking at their faces, or even just half of them. Really really appreciate the amount of effort they put into that. Loved the episode, completely broke my heart. |
| Im ugly crying.... NOOOOO!! I wish they told Miri it would be the last time instead of her having the expectation she will see them tomorrow. My heart </3 |
| An amazing Episode, one of the better ones I've seen in a long time... |

LostSpectre said: I highly doubt, that this is the end of their dilemma. My guess would be, that Miri ends up being abducted anyways, since she still had relations to Kazuki and Rei. It would also make for a good climax to the finale of the show.Old_School_Akira said: Her faking it would be an objectively terrible storyline, but I do wonder where things are supposed to go from here.

| This episode has succeeded in making me feel happy to outright sad within 24 minutes. =( Miri's mother makes her appearance again for the first time since the 3rd episode and it looks like her cancer has spread to the point that she can't sing anymore, which made her abusive shitty boyfriend dump her. This has given her a wake up call and she's gone out of her way to find where Kazuki and Rei lives and asks for Miri to live with her again. Since it was Kyu who gave her the information, along with his stern words about how she's distracting both of their work, it does look like that they can't win this battle. On the bright side, the three chose to go to a nice shopping centre, filled with many shops, arcades and activity centres where all of them had fun, before ending it with a ride on the Ferris wheel with a beautiful view of the city. Throughout this part of the episode, you can tell from the expressions from both Kazuki and Rei know what was going to happen once the day was over, despite their best efforts to put up a brave front to make sure that Miri had as much fun as possible. With that, Miri was to go with her mother for a "sleepover", but we all know that there's more to that. For her safety, it's obvious that she'll be staying with her mother for a while. Having said that, it doesn't mean that any of them are out of danger yet, with the organisation still hell bent of achieving its objectives and with Rei's continued reluctance on succeeding his father's role, a betrayal of the organisation does seem likely. Knowing them, they'll do anything to get at Kazuki and Rei and kidnapping Miri could be an option. Whether the series goes down that route for the final three episodes, who knows. Either way, I do look forward to seeing what it does next and I hope that it still remains a compelling series right to the very end. =) |
| That's it? Miri is away from her papas forever? I doubt that's how it all ends, they'll see her again, right? I doubt that Miri's mother changed that quickly. I think she might not actually have cancer, and was faking it to get Miri back. The other possibility is that Kyu paid her to take Miri back, to protect Miri in some way. There's a lot of suspicion I have for this whole situation, and something tells me it will get quite dark in these three remaining episodes as Rei and Kazuki continue their work in their organization. A bit of a heartbreaking episode, let's hope Miri's smile is protected until the end. |
| Didn’t expect it to be such an emotional episode |
| This episode made me cry ๐ญ hopefully she really changed. |

| this episode brought me to tears, especially at the end with kazuki giving miri his scarf and her saying she'd see them tomorrow:( i really want this shoe to end on a happy note, but with only a few episodes left im not sure if and how that would happen. keeping my fingers crossed though. i get their line of work is dangerous and all, but miri's mom was just horrible and neglectful to miri in the past, so it frustrates me that she just shows up and miri is so excited to see her and spend time with her. it's all really a complicated situation though, especially what kyu said about how they're the ones that killed miri's dad and there's no way she'd stay oblivious to that forever. it is just a piece of fiction though, so im really hoping for a turning point and a happy ending for miri, kazuki, and rei. begging for it even, because my heart wouldn't be able to take a sad ending to this happy comfy show |

| This was so sad but I feel especially bad for Rei :( He was finally starting to smile and feel some family love. I can't trust Miri's mom tbh |
