I really loved the stage play, it was beautiful and sad at the same time. The girls were all so cute too. This series was good despite Mya's parts when she was a bit gross.

Well those were some damn impressive effects for a 5th grade school play! Episode was a nice ending, though I definitely enjoyed a few other episodes more like the one with the mall shopping or best-girl Hinata having to go 5 days without her Mya-nee.

Anyway I'm pretty torn on what to grade this one. On the one hand, this was a pretty adorable show full of lovable characters. I adored best-girl Hinata and it was nice to see the mothers play as much of a role as they did. In fact I wouldn't have minded seeing more of them. On the other hand, and this is where my feelings become clouded I....didn't always enjoy the core relationship the series was built on, that of Hana and Mya-nee. I can look past the questionable premise, this is a series where there literally wasn't a single male character afterall, it ain't meant to be taken too seriously or looked at that way, outside a joke or two here and there. But rather, I just fell in love with Hinata and would have preferred Mya-nee fall in love with her instead! Sister love afterall is wonderful. At the same time since they're already family the whole "Mya finally makes friends" sub-theme wouldn't have really worked had the show gone that route. And I dunno if I can really blame the show for that. I want to give this an 8, but I dunno if my inner...reservation will let me. Hmmmmmm....I'll play it safe at keep it at 7 for now, but it's definitely a high 7.

This anime was a lot better than I expected! At first I thought it would be similar to Uchiuza, but this was different.
I loved this last chapter the play was cute and I'm not going to lie I shed some tears (this stories always hit me hard).
5/5 chapter overall series 9/10.
I really want a second season 😁

I did not expect a tearjerker for a final episode. Seriously, that play hit me hard enough to get me all misty-eyed.

This show was fantastic. Not a boring bit in any of the 12 episodes, and I definitely wouldn'tmind more.

With shows like these, Doga Kobo has become one of my favorite animation studios.

The first part of the episode, I was surprised and almost made to cry, it almost seemed that I was watching another anime, then we return with our feet on the ground and the circle closes, making it clear what all the anime is for almost: like the influence of one person on the other, it brings oneself and the other to change one another. Quality of drawings and animations, always high, a feast for the eyes.

- Their teacher has some seriously OP talent for a elementary teacher.

- The closest CGCDT gets to classic Disney?

A premier CGDCT, almost as good as it gets. A cross between Uzamaid and Gochiusa perhaps with only their meritable points inherited and less desirable ones discarded. 7/10

Hopefully a season 2 or something similar to this and Uzamaid comes out soon.

wow what a great musical play, i really wasn't expecting such a long play, with such a nice song , just wow

anyway, great cgdct anime, i loved it
5+ cute girls, a pretty nice main girl, fun mothers, what else can we ask for? =D
super fun interactions between everyone, lots of cute moments, girls enjoying sweets, cosplays as well, character development for Mya...

i ended up giving it a 8/10 but i might actually change it to 9 later, since this show is probably on pair with other cute shows i gave 9 and even 10s
favorite "new girls" from summer <3 ... click sig for older seasons and more possible picks (rip all the other choices)

I hated this show... watched in 3x speed... suuuuper boring... this anime is only for time wasting I guess. Wonder why it got 7.5 rating on MAL!!

just in case you're looking for them. The songs in the musical play are in the Wataten Sound Collection cd. They're really nice to listen to. :)

Well, I didn't expect for this play to actually turn anime into fairy tale.. It's quite a nice play.. Many things are just beautiful.. Singing and words, story, characters.. Touching scenes.. It's just such a nice play.. ;p
And here is the meme, where Yuuna gives something, ordering something.. Alright.. ;P
The story is just too sad, though.. I like dramas personally.. So I'm glad about seeing it.. But it's a bit strange, how they set story this sad as a play.. It was also hopeful, on the other hand, I guess?.. Heroes still singing and smiling, even with such tragic events happening.. So what was the story after all, in the end?.. I'm not too sure.. Maybe I'll read comments..

Well, overall it's hard for me to decide, how much I liked anime.. Ending episode was great.. As well as first episode.. Slice of life stuff is enjoyable as always with cute girls doing cute things, but in this case it was more about elementary schoolers.. Their topics are more innocent, it feels.. Even if we had tad bit creepy stuff here and there, it still felt like it's anime more about children, rather than usual girls from CGDCT genre.. But that's for me personally.. I enjoy these girls more like children, rather than usual girls, if you catch, what I want to say.. And I enjoy anime about children a bit less, honestly, than if girls would be from middle or high school, where relationships are already a norm really, and many other things.. So it's hard to say, how to rate this anime.. I guess, for now I'll give it a high mark.. But will see later in the future, how much I'll feel I enjoyed this anime after some time..

Man, Doga Koba is an unparalleled force when it comes to these cutesy and wholesome CGCDT shows! Fantastic ride for me personally as such, from start to finish.

Quite the touching story there, though. Sensei, I think these kids are a little too young for a tear-jerker of that sort I reckon. I was expecting a lot of tears for some reason, lol.

Mya-nee taking strides forward and Hana-chan showing a bit more of her concerned side to her were a treat to watch, in particular. But well, seeing all the Characters back again definitely livened it up and ended this off on a high!

I hate to do this though but I'd weigh this just a tad bit lower than Uzamaid! but this was fabulous nonetheless. Hinata will go down as one of my favorite imouto characters for a long time for one, I'm certain. Going to miss these characters ~

Animation Quality and the Artsyle plus the color usage hit right on the mark imo. Op/ED were great company too, it's going to be a new addition to my healing music playlist.

Leaving the Special for later today to brighten the day xD.

Solid 7.5/10.

I didn't expect the play would be a musical, and less such a long one. I expected a average children play.

Noa dressed as Miyako totally tricked me haha, I thought she was another classmate who looked like Miyako.

So, this show finally ended, I'm going to miss seeing this girls, they were all so cute.

This finale's first half has no business being that good. I even had goosebumps a few times. I'd say this is probably one of my favourite season finales in a CGDCT (cute girls doing cute things) slice of life anime so far. I'd say this episode had a kind of Disney and "Your Name" (the Makoto Shinkai film) feel that's presented as a CGDCT anime.

Speaking of Disney, I've also noticed that anime doesn't have many musicals. Based on my experiences, at least. Seeing as this episode pulled it off, I kind of wonder why I haven't seen musical anime before? I mean, I guess you could count idol anime such as iM@S and Love Live. But they just feel different from an actual animated musical. Well, they say that Disney is a huge thing in Japan. I guess they're fine with just dubbing those instead of making their own?

Yeah, I'd say Hana's voice fits the songs in this episode.

This is a little silly to speculate but I'm guessing lesbianism is the norm in the WataTen universe. The angel and the human were in love in this episode's play. Although to be fair, it wasn't explicitly stated that it was a romantic kind of love. I mean, I said this because this is typical in shows like Love Live and Yuru Yuri. Heck, both WataTen and Yuru Yuri are Comic Yuri Hime manga that's animated by studio Doga Kobo.

I like the detail of Noa wearing a wig similar to Miyako's hair. Like, she plays as the granddaughter of the character Hinata plays as.

I was expecting the teacher to apologize to Miyako because she thought that Miyako was a suspicious person in the previous episode. Probably a different faculty member, though.

Of course, Koko probably "helped Hinata spread rumours about Miyako." What a rather heartwarming ending for her.

I've just noticed that Yori's eyes have paler pupils than the rest of the cast? Yeah, I've noticed that way too late, lol. But I mean, she doesn't appear as much as the main characters. So, yeah.

Was a fun watch, basically being a wholesome Happy Sugar Life. Mya nee even sounds a little like Hanazawa Kana. Never thought I'd be sad to finish a cute slice of life but the energy of the show was great. The voice actresses really brought it with this one.

A really adorable way to end the show! For a Gradeschool show , the show's story was pretty deep , I'm impressed, way deeper than any other show I've been in as a kid. I was wondering how their production quality was so high till I realized it was mostly a reimagining lol.
Incog-Miyako in the crowd was great haha(βŒβ– wβ– )
I would definitely be interested in another season, the show's comedy was on point and the characters have their charm, even the moms were awesome OwO Despite Miyako's creepy moments , I grew fond of her , especially since she's a really good onee-san, not to mention her and Matsumoto being my favorite characters in the show.
A really wholesome show that I liked more as it progressed

Had to book a doctor's appointment after almost receiving multiple heart attacks because of this diabetes anime.
Aside from Mya-nee and Koko's questionnable behaviour, this certainly is the most adorable show I've seen so far.
