Such a nice and warm episode. This anime is full of so much warmth that it feels so good after watching every episode.

Loved it to see the three of them putting so much effort to make a memorable night for everyone, and when all of them appreciated their hard work with a 'kanpai', i was so extremely happy. This felt like the final episode, just like ANIMATION, but it seemed a bit better. I was so worried that something might have happened to Ai (or her grandma) but it seems everything turned out for the best and returned with warm and fuzzy moments yet again. <3

I'm very happy to see the gang together just like that. If they're together, it brings light during the dark times. It's like they're one big happy family. They really enjoyed that party during the Redentore festival.

Few things I loved in this episode were:
1. The winter undine uniform ofcourse. Summer time is over so our 3 undine girls switched back to the longsleeves dress uniform. :3
2. Akari, Alice, and Aika hosting a midnight club on a boat. I'm glad they did a good doing that.
3. Ai and her late arrival. I thought she couldn't make it in time and they'll just leave her behind. I'm very happy Ai got into the boat. I wouldn't want Ai to miss that party.
4. The fireworks in the end. It was brilliant to turn off the lights during a firework shower to see the full effects of it.

Very good and lovely episode. I'm always happy if everyone got together just like this one. I still think the 3 water fairies gave Akari and others the hosting job because they got lazy into doing it, lol. Anyways, I'm off to the finale. :)

Adored seeing everyone together. Called it with Aika when we knew Akira and Athena being at Aria was bad news. What a lush episode though. I want to party with them. Woody's sleeping face. Pahahaa. Ai~chan is just too cute. That dance! And when Athena joined in. Pahaha. She's too adorable.

I was worried about Ai-chan and her grandmother for a couple of minutes, glad Aria didn't decide to go all drama, this show really is about heartwarming and relaxation. I would have loved to spend the festival with them, such a nice group. 5/5.

I enjoyed this episode a lot.
I wish Akari would become a prima, already. It would be cool to have episodes showing the kinds of customers she gets and the adventures she shows them.

One more episode, and it looks like there was a time jump (from first of autumn to snow on the ground).
Your mean should be an even bell curve only if you watch every show that comes out. Having a high-slung mean doesn't mean you're rating improperly. It can also mean you're selecting shows well to watch mostly things you enjoy.

Hurray Ai is back, she's so adorable. Aria sure loves its festivals, Redentore sounds like loads of fun. That fireworks scene was spectacular. Only one episode left, curses :x.

Aika x Al-kun OTP. They were acting like a couple, so cute :D!

Athena was adorable but I have to wonder if Alice felt embarrassed seeing her senpai dancing like that haha.

Alice mimicking Athena at 10th episode on Animation is pretty funny(and Akira even mentioned it). Ai and Prez Aria dancing is pretty funny too, even funnier when Athena joined them.

A neat episode overall.

Glad nothing happened to Ai or her grandma. When Ai said to Akari that she's glad she met her (again making it seem like it's the final episode), for some reason I thought she was going to say "I've decided to be a gondolier too" lol. And that dance, I need that gif.

Yup, typical aria being typically epic.

That was a lovely gathering of our lovely cast, getting more and more proud of our 3 undines.

Loved it, pure bliss, well almost. The dance part was a bit random and awkward, but the fireworks scene, with piano version of "Smile again" in the background, was simply brilliant.
Also nice to see Ai-chan again, and everyone coming together.
The girls stressing out with preparations reminded me of school times for some reason.
Aika being nervous about Al and them acting like an old couple was hilarious as always.
It's a bit of a shame it's all coming to an end, but hey, nothing lasts forever.

Nice festival, nice boat, nice feelings. Glad to see Ai-cwhan again after some weird moment on the first episode. Well, since the previous ending scene, my question got cleared here with Ai reason why she cant reply Akari comment as usual. Amazing direction there, while considering this as a SoL. With two more episodes left what Aria can give to me? Hope Ai-cwhan can stay there until last moment.

Another fantastic, relaxing, beautiful episode! Aria at its best indeed.

I love their autumn/winter uniforms. They looks so elegant and beautiful in it.

What a heartwarming moment, seeing Ai-chan once again! It's always great to mark the end of the season with the return of Ai from Manhome. The friendship shared between Ai and Akari is just so cute! It's wonderful how they've framed the entire series using that relationship, with each episode being a retelling of events in Akari's emails to Ai. I can totally see Ai one day becoming an Undine, Akari's apprentice! Would love to see that day come. Also, Ai's totally grown hasn't she? I feel like she's just a bit tad taller and more mature.

Was expecting them to become undines here. Not that I'm disappointed, but can't wait to see them get that hard-earned title!

Ai... You're adorable but... You just don't pass yourself for dead for an entire week just because you want to surprise your friend. Especially not after you told her your grandma is sick. You meanie. (Seriously she scared me, I thought her grandma was dead and the episode would take a dark turn to deal with the topic of grief.)

Well, another great episode ! I didn't want to give this season a 9 since there's Origination to come which apparently is the best season, but if the last episode is just as good (which I'm sure it will be), then who cares, I'm gonna give it a 9 anyway.

I was getting some seriously ominous vibes at first. I thought both grandmas were gonna turn up dead or something! But I should have known that wouldn't happen. This episode felt like a finale and I totally expected them to become full fledged Undines at the end.

This episode just had me smiling the whole time, nice to see the gang all together.

Planning a party and seeing it succeed has to be one of the best feelings.

The fireworks at the end capped off this perfect episode.
