| Loved the "8 Mile" reference. Just needed someone saying "Mom's spaghetti." |
| I reject your reality, and substitute my own. |
| Eiko's new song is finally complete with the assistance Kid doing the arrangements. Kabe's battle with Sekitoba Kung Fu was alright, but we knew Kabe was going to win anyway. It seems like AZALEA manager is planning on buying out the competition for likes by doing a surprise concert in Shibuya and their main goal is to perform in the Tokyo Dome which is a huge venue in Japan. |

Eiko's shirt is absolutely perfect. 100% straight facts right there I think that would've been interesting if Kongming actually did reincarnate back into the old world at the moment that he heard Eiko's voice. He would have achieved his purpose in helping Eiko find herself. And now that the task was completed, Kongming would return home, knowing that Eiko was now ready to continue and finish her journey on her own. |

Ryuseishun said: My only gripe with this anime is that it appears that this season won't reach even the best part so far in the manga material. I know PA Works hasn't been doing well as of lately, which goes back to the consequences of doing all those hit-or-miss original anime, but I do hope s2 can be possible, even if not in the immediate future. I think it has a good chance of getting a S2. This anime may be a bit overshadowed in the West, but it is currently trending as the top anime of the season in Japan, according to the Nico anime rankings. |
| Every time I see Azalea's producer I can't stop thinking about Interstella 5555, I wonder why, |

It’s a really clear contrast between she and Kabe/Eiko who have clearly found themselves now, are more confident and having success. Speaking of success, really happy for my boy Kabe. After everything he’s been thru recently it’s so nice to see him not only perform well, but be recognised by his rival as the better rapper. Solid episode as always, hopefully next week we get closer to an Azaela resolution. She definitely is but I’m just referring to her current look. |

Fortress_Maximus said: Eiko's found her reason for singing and Kid is now willing to arrange her new song. That was fun watching Kabetaijin and Sekitoba Kung-fu's battle. His reason is to represent the average joes like himself and his friend that got him into the rap game. I think the announcer for that battle was based on DJ Koo of TRF?   EDIT: Yes, he is, the credits even confirm he's the voice actor!  Nanami/Lezel recently covered one of TRF's songs, too! maaan...what a surprise I got when saw the DJ KOO and heard his voice...damn! and now I'm with the Boy meets girl song in my mind LOL |
| Kongming, a man that is perpetually ten step ahead of others, should have already excogitated some genius plan for the approaching showdown with Azalea. Also, I never really thought about this this but damn, Eiko sure has a perfect pair of legs! It's no wonder she's always wearing short shorts. |
paeanblotch said: yeah in the last episode also the jiggle shots they showed was kinda making me feel bad Yea it felt like they was being slutted out for ratings. Kinda had me feeling uncomfortable |

| The freaking flashback, he literally transcended through space and time haha. Eiko's new song was so great already, DJ Pudding did a banger. DJ Koo? HOW???    |

| Can't believe Eiko was wearing a "MILK" t-shirt. I swear, her drip is so perfect. And oh boy, the hype is real. Can't wait to see both Eiko and Azalea's performances next week! Now on a different note, Kongming's "flashback" lowkey scared me a bit. For a moment I really thought we would be getting a random side-plot with him actually returning to the past lol. |
I really like this shot of Kabe rapping  |
| After last week's relatively laid back episode, this week was jam packed with stuff happening. Eiko marching into battle was a great moment. I'm glad the second rap battle got wrapped up quickly because there really isn't much time left with Summer Sonia just days away. It didn't feel too rushed either. I don't use comment faces but smug Kongming feels like it deserves to be one for sure. Plus seeing our boy in his everyday clothes from way back was cool. He really pulls off the look. |
| The rap battle isn't actually great as Koumei vs Kabe rap battle. Well, this episode is kinda normal, can't wait to hear more of Eiko new song. |
 |
| great episode, really exicted for the ending of the series |
People are saying there is a lot of reference, but I have seen THIS and now I can't unsee it. |
 |
| Only 2 episodes left. Oh man. I wonder if EIKO can win when Azalea is going to buy likes. I really hope this season will end on a positive note because who knows if they'll make a season 2 for this anime. |
| Kabe Taijin Rap Battle won!! Wow buying likes huh? Lmao so relatable... Dreamer, such a beautiful title. I really like the Song. |
 |
| When Kongming got sent back, it totally reminded me of that one scene in Yakitate Japan where the thing was so good, the guy got sent back in the past and changed it, lol. |
| Oh man this was so good. I'm literally itching to watch the next episode and hear Eiko's finished song. SO good that had to upgrade my rating from 8->9. The way this is progressing I wonder if they will show us who gets the most likes by the end of this season. 2 episodes is a very short time, even assuming that somehow Eiko gets 100k likes then still I don't think there will be enough time left for them to show us her Summer Sonia performance. Really hoping for a Season 2 announcement ASAP. 5/5. |

 The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama. Feeling half happy, half sad. Kawaii waifus and precious best girls <3333 |
| Another week, another episode! This episode just felt waaaaay too quick! Things are wrapping up fast and we're ever closer to day X. Kabetaijin won the rap battle, even when the BPM is slower, I think they're saving his high BPM rap on the actual big day song. The same goes with Eiko's singing. We get to see a snippet of it and several montages of both her and Azalea practising, but the complete length would definitely be during the final big day performance. Aw man, only 2 episodes left, I'll be sure to savor the rest of this underrated gem of a show. |

| Karasawa isn't holding back on his tactics on getting AZALEA into Summer Sonia by holding a surprise event at Shibuya while also buying likes so that they can achieve their 100k target. No wonder Nanami looks even more glum than before. =( Meanwhile, things were looking great for both Eiko and Kabe. The rap battle between Kabe and Sekitoba wasn't as long as I thought it would be, but even at a slower BPM, Kabe took it into his stride and nailed it. I liked how Sekitoba declared him the victor before the announcer finished his sentence while smiling at Kabe. With that settled, Kido had finished his arrangement for Eiko's new song and she got into the groove of making it perfect. I was taken by surprise when the instant she sung, Kongming got an immediate flashback to his past, which he described as transcending through time and space, quite literally. XD Now with the title of Eiko's new song chosen, which was "Dreamer", all she needs to do now is to sing with with everything she's got next time. going by the small samples of the song that we heard in this episode, it sounds very promising, so I highly look forward to hearing the full version next time. ^_^ |
| Eiko didn't say Paripi Koumei at the halfway point this episode. 2/10 show. |
| Good episode. Glad for KABE, he has worked hard to come back to the stage and his efforts were rewarded. Seems like this season will wrap up Summersonia seeing as there's only 2 episodes left. Here's hoping there's a S2 announcement. |
 |
| Another week of greatness Eiko just can't be making my finals week better and Refreshing the mood. |
| Eiko never misses when it comes to music. I really liked the rap battle part. Sekitoba is kind of a chad for the respect he gave to Kabe lol |
 ManWild |
| ive been hoping for Kongming scenes during his past, glad we finally got a tiny bit of that gotta say i still ve no idea what part does Kabe plays in Kongmings plan, though i guess that should be revealed in the next ep |

| That rap battle felt a bit underwhelming though it is hard to pay attention to two languages at once what is heard and what the subs translate. Lol Wait now Ive caught up in episodes I have to wait a week? Noooooooo... oh well. |

| This is what I live for (in this season): EIKO blasting our her new songs! Kabe's rap was slick. Koumei's flashback and mirroring of Liu Bei and EIKO as his master was great. Also, lol Owner is like EIKO's dad at this point, being worried so much for her. He's done so much for her though. Can't believe he's such a good guy, and he always believes in her too. Wants the best for her. That's totally a dad thing. Blast out DREAMER, EIKO! Blast it out so hard that Nanami and her friends will be freed from their cage. I CAN'T WAIT FOR NEXT EPISODE! It feels like it's going to be epic with a lot of great music ^^ |
 |
| "Dreamer" Kabetaijin was able to beat Sekitoba and Eiko was able to record the song, which is very cool! Very good chapter. |
| Dreamer good name for song title. Solid 5/5 |
“Life is never boring, but some people choose to be bored.” — Wayne Dyer |
| Honestly, P.A Works should just flat out make a ROTK anime at this point. |
| Cheating on that kind of competition, well it's not surprising... though it was good for both Kabe who won his rap battle and Eiko that finally got her song produced and decided to name it "Dreamer" now it's all up to the win! |
 |
| Well the time is almost upon me, and now I want to see what is gonna get them numbers. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| Seeing Kongming remember the past because of how good Eiko's song is kinda reminds me of that one scene from Ratatouille. |
 |
| The pacing felt slow, but overall Eikos music at the end made up for it. |
