From the author after the last episode finished airing:
| @kisaragi_eki wait, does this read "arigatou gozaimashita" ? I know the first shuwa is "a", the one with Kyouya is "i", and Rin's "ma". The rest I guessed by extrapolation from the context. |
Python is the best programming language ever. FIGHT ME! |
| Nice closing for having all the characters having their own ends. Kyouya x Rin having the most W with them kinda in engagement. While Shin x Emma seems like kinda being rushed here, but also glad to see them finally in a good relationship again after all the times, they were dating. As for the last, Yuuki manage to get her passport ready to fly around the world with Itsuomi. Satisfying ending for this entertaining romance show. Not sure if i even need second season of Sign of Affection, since this is already concluded enough to me. But eh? More wholesome Yuuki can be great to get in the future, right? Oishi/10 |

| They went all in on the romantic atmosphere this week! The floral spring scenery was absolutely gorgeous. Itsuomi's reason for being so passionate about languages really resonated me as well. I was expecting all the build-up to eventually lead to a tragic reveal, but I was positively surprised. Itsuomi, at least as seen in the anime, is a great example of the fact that characters can be interesting, identifiable and relatable even without an angsty background. I would love to see more characters like that in media. The small montage at the end wraps most existing plot points up in an open-ended yet satisfactory manner, but doesn't completely close off the possibility for a second season either – this was a great, well-crafted last episode all around. |

@Memore Not happening. Until something affects negatively the couple, Itsuomi and Yuki are to remain boyfriend and girlfriend and future husband and wife and parents.
| @leonardobarba, ok, thanks for the answer. |
 |
| This was a rock solid romance that did a great job getting me invested as it went on. They could honestly end it with this finale. Basically all the cast got happy endings and there is nothing pushing the plot forwards besides slice of life. Still I'm pretty sure there is more so I'm looking forward to a S2 if one comes. |
| "Ich will soccer" is so relatable when learning a new language XD Aw it would've been so cute for Yuki and Itsu to kiss beneath the wisteria in the finale :P Yey Emma not only accepted Shin's confession but also asked him out on a date! Now only Oushi is a single pringle lol |
| and another anime ended :D it's not everyday that we get to see an anime about a disabled person like this one huh actually i think this is the only one i watched apart from the movie "silent voice" that goes with someone who can't hear/speak since i can't really include someone like Komi-san on that group it also helps that she is super cute and all the other charas are pretty friendly (apart from Oushi, but even he is fine lol) anyway, it was really nice to watch this one, can't be easy for someone with a disability to take the first step to make friends, get a job, learn stuff and all those other things that people like to do it also helps her that she can read people lips or that she knows how to read/write so she can still communicate with people, and ofc, there's some that go the extra mile to learn her own language, like Oushi, his sister, Itsuomi, Madoka and her mother (tho that's probably because Madoka also lost her hearing) i remember reading the author saying something about how this anime would touch the heart of many people, and i can say for sure it did that for me, thanks Morishita sensei in that note, i hope to see other works from him being adapted tbh, if they all are as good as this one anyway, one of my favorite anime this season, an easy 9/10 (maybe even 10/10 lol), i'd love to watch more |
favorite "new girls" from summer <3 ... click sig for older seasons and more possible picks (rip all the other choices) |
| Fluffy and cute show. I'm very happy this didn't focus on painful love triangles with unresolved drama for ages! @LuisSV23 Itsuomi is too much for Yuuki, personally I think he deserves someone better xd. That's not how love works, bruh. |
| Hmm. Kinda feel a bit dissapointed in this last quarter of the series. The early premise was so brilliant in the whole concept of two people getting to know each other with sign language (the animation was pretty detailed and neat too). But I don't feel that the finale had a good climax to seal the deal. Itsuomi's revelation about his love for traveling wasn't really that interesting to me as finale material, it's something that should had been an important passage in a less important episode, not as the climax. Quite frankly I feel that Emma and Shin-chan should had been the spotlight rather tha just being a part of a montage with Yuki's friends and their love life. This show was an easy high 9 in the beginning, I feel that this last episodes bump it down to an 8.5 in my books. |

@Memore Well Yuki is not into Oushi at least for now. Perhaps maybe in the future but it would take a major change in the story arc to do so. Perhaps it is easier to introduce another character to match with Oushi. That's how I feel.
| @SenseiSempai-san, maybe you are right. Still I hope for Oushi to be witj Yuki in the future. |
|
Reply to SenseiSempai-san
@Memore yeah can understand how you feel. Perhaps some messages to the mangaka may prompt such scenario in the near future.
| @SenseiSempai-san, it would be amazing! |
|
Reply to SenseiSempai-san
@Memore yes though it will change the entire sotry arc but we'll see how it pans out in the manga first before even talking about season 2.
| @SenseiSempai-san, I wish Itsuomi happiness in love, really, but I can't watch Oushi sufferings. |
|
| A pretty good ending. Although the first half was good, it didn't feel like a satisfying ending to a second season. I'm glad the second half did its job. Yuki was, is, and will probably continue be the main reason why this show/story is so interesting. To be honest, I'm just okay with Itsuomi. Yuki is who's carrying the show here. That girl who hangs around Oushi is kind of cute and might be a good partner for him in the future. And Oushi might be taking his first steps to become an actual interpreter, you go, man! SHIN AND EMMA! THE SHIP IS SAILING! I'm so happy for them, especially Shin. Also glad to see Madoka-chan in the flesh, and she has that fire like her aunt lol Definitely hoping for a season 2, but I'm not sure whether it'll ever come. In any case, I'll put the manga in my backlog. 8/10. Definite AotS for me. |

Reply to SenseiSempai-san
@Memore I get you but perhaps Oushi's suffering is part of him maturing and be more communicative effectively rather than being a surly person in Yuki's eyes.
| @SenseiSempai-san, you are right, but still it is painful to watch. |

| @Shikkakku, that girl is Oushi's friend. I hope that he and Yuki will be together in future. |

@Memore Isn't that girl that hangs around Oushi is his sister? Or I may have miss out something here?
| @SenseiSempai-san, no, it is his friend, his sister is a girl with a short brown hair. |

Reply to SenseiSempai-san
@Memore it is when one is rooting for Oushi.
| @SenseiSempai-san, not for him, but for his love, he suffers because of it. |

@Memore yes but maybe it is part of the whole story arc. The story and characters sure can connect with us.
| @SenseiSempai-san, let's hope that Itsuomi finds another girlfriend. |
