Well they did announce a Nogizaka Haruka Special at the end of the episode so I'm guessing an OVA or possibly a few short episodes will show up two seasons from now. I guess they could make a 3rd season depending on how popular it was in Japan.

As for the ending...I have to say that was probably one of the best episodes out of the second season despite it being a COMPLETE knock off of Toradora. I was actually pleasantly surprised they tried to toss in sex at the end. Sure we knew everyone would brake into the house and mess it all up but at least we got to see Haruka and Yuuto take a step up from being shy around each other.

I liked the Full Metal Panic spoof with the suite Yuuto was wearing lol. Also the NGE and Gundam references.

Ok I will agree with the attempted sex trying and Haruka/Yuuto step up that was a + but why is it a Toradora knock off. I did not see that anime but would like to know why.

In spoiler my anime list for now.

Great episode, very nice ending, but it's a shame they've been disturbed in their special moment again ! ^^
Poor Shiina, she didn't have the time to confess properly...
And yeah, it's possible they'll make a third season. I never expected this one, and it came anyway ^^ So let's wait and see until april 2010 :)

This episode was a good "Nogizaka no Haruka" episode; not a good finale.

Well, the final image we saw was the poster with a voice over that the fansub I was watching translated as, "Let's see each other again" or something like that. I personally hope that there will be at least a few OVAs and the producers say: "Eff the source material, we're gonna wrap this shit up NOW." And proceed into an OVA or OVAs that aren't your typical harem, ecchi, beach/hot spring-filled episode(s), but one with a confession and a kiss.

I hope to god there isn't a third season. Because we all know that they'll end up prolonging the inevitable until the very last scene of the 12th episode. If they do end up doing a third season, hopefully they'll break the trend and have them confess within the first five episodes and have a nice, feel good anime to leave a sweet aftertaste, opposed to the bitter one we were given after this season.

They've had 24 episodes to get this done and it still isn't. They don't need another 12 to do the same thing if they aren't going to commit.

Lemme get this straight:
They didn't confess.
They didn't kiss.
BUT they are going to have sex all of a sudden?
Oh yeah, realism ftw!

The overall story had sooo much potiential, first season was okay after all, but this was just a huge waste of time. I would have had more fun, if I had watched the wall of my room.

I know!
I saw that and was taken aback, but for some reason I didn't think they were gonna have sex. Then when they were questioned as to what they were doing and they said, "It's a secret!" I was basically the "orly owl".

This show REALLY pulls out all the clichés one can think of:
- 'Abandoned' shack behind huge lodge
- Haruka's teardrop that just happened to fall right where her ring was
- Shiina confessing to the wrong guy
- A ping pong ball that 'accidentally' winds up between Haruka's boobs (if Yuuto were REALLY bold, he'd get it out for her)

Still, despite this clichéfest, this episode was funny.

So, when can we expect season 3? You just know there's gonna be one.

I laughed out at that scene where I saw Haruka's mom turns into a Super Saiyan. This episode is almost predictable but good. I honestly think the first season is much better due to having less ecchi moments. It's too bad that episode don't have a kissing scene. It is possible this series will have third season because the manga is still going-on in Japan.

LOL the only good part was with Gendou and his wife, when he was alone in the room begging for forgiveness I was laughing so much.
Otherwise the episode was bad, laughed at how cliche it was when Haruka's tear melt the snow where was the ring and that a ray of light (in this freacking tempest, nonetheless) made it shine.
And the interupting of the kiss well, it's not like I was expecting anything.

I see a lot of people complaining about how terrible this episode was, well of course its a Nogizaka Haruka series, frankly you should expect cliche moments, random fan service scenes, and for something to go wrong during any potential romance between Haruka & Yuuto. But this is the reason I watch the series b/c its comedy with some fan service

Though I wonder if they actually did do it....put together the scene in the beginning of the episode and the last scene and they might have....I like to believe they did b/c it would make my rating of the series higher, haha.

That's the problem. Personally, the Nogizaka Haruka no Himitsu series is one of my favourite series, but at this rate, that's not going to hapen any time soon in the anime, even if the light novel and manga get there.

I didn't like this episode that much, but I do like the series. I just wish they focused more on her "secret" more, since I don't think everyone in the school knows she likes anime/manga and all that jazz yet.

Oh well, hoping for a season three.

after putting it off for a week, it was some time before i had to watch the final episode of this fail sequel so that i can move on. Well at least they tried to make Shiina a competition, but to no avail. honestly, i couldnt watch it straight i had to pause for a few minutes because of this episode's contents...my eyes and ears were burning!

6/10, lowest score i give to animes...now to watch The Sacred Blacksmith, another fail in this season :))

Best part of the ep: Alice trying to bounce the ping pong ball off her non-existent boobs. Other than that, and being cute overall, it was extremely predictable and kind of already happened this season.

I feel worse and worse for Shiina every episode.. if it had continued any longer, I may have switched pairings.

Fucking flower pedal. Not that I didn't expect it.

5/10 for the whole season. Had it's enjoyable parts, but was overall just way too cliche and didn't live up to the first season very well, which I rated a 7.

i loved the first season.. but this one is a major let down.. so i give a 7.. my lowest score (at least i did not drop it, which will make it inexistent in my list).. i have nothing against ecchi and fanservice.. but i did not designate this anime for that.. i wanted the cheese but it just gets interrupted everytime.. if there would be a season 3, i'd be reluctant to watch unless they bring back the season 1's otaku romance spirit back..

I liked the first season much better, almost wish i wouldn't have watched this season at all. I mean the story really doesn't go anywhere from the last season. Wait I take that back Yuuta seems to have degenerated to the point that whatever back bone he had left turned completely to jello and everybody else was beaten with the echi stick until they bled

Told you guys there wouldn't be a kiss.
Gheez, not that I even cared about it anymore.
What has become of this show with a pretty nice premise.. not once did we get to see Haruka in her lovely otaku glory. Can anyone who read the novel perhaps confirm if this was the same as in the show?

A third season would be completely unnecessary, so I hope that last statement wasn't a quiet hint of that sort.

5/10, and with that I'm being quite lenient as well.

And please hear my prayer, and deliver us a godly OVA of the lacrosse sqaaaud.

Akiho > gentou. lol

so ... I wonder what the whole maid team, mika and akiho thought about that "secret" that they all started clapping (while gentou was crying blood? )


They understood what was going on, and were happy that those two FINALLY got down to business. Saying that it's a secret was probably just so that they didn't have to say out loud that they were about to have sex. After all, this time none said "It's a misunderstanding".

By the way, I'm surprised that they actually made an ending that was satisfying, even tough they DID get interrupted AGAIN. When I saw the beginning of the episode i thought that they were going to do the usual thing with "It's not what it looks like", and when Haruka said "Put it in" or whatever she said, she was talking about putting more wood in the fire or something stupid like that, and never mind that she was moaning while saying it, THAT part doesn't need an explanation.

Lastly, I just have to say that last time a saw an ending like this was so long ago that I don't even remember it, normally they leave the relationships open as to not hurt the fans of other ships and give us an unsatisfying ending about defeating the last boss that suddenly appeared last episode, but bears no relevance to the plot whatsoever.
When will those people learn that when you are watching a series focused purely on romance, the ending you want is a romantic one, not some action-movie-ending. (Some harem series where the ships all have about equal value I do accept nothing-gets-resolved-endings tough)

I cannot believe how bad this was .. went from an 8/10 (idol part was decent) to a 6 because of this ending... 24 episodes, no confession? At least make Shiina DO SOMETHING! She was about to confess, and even though she got the wrong person, she still didn't do it? Season one was alright but had a terrible ending (typical shonen...); who would have thought season two could have a worse ending ... honestly?

could have been much more fun if that idol stuff would last one episode longer and haruka really add up to be an idol, but then notice that she is missing something. it was to easy solved by buying the company so the ending seems more like an special to me.

so final quote this anime gathered the state of much potential for an third season but i guess it is like all the time... it will stop here

This is one of the worst things I've watched in my life.
Unneeded fanservice like every fucking second, no real kiss-oh but wait! they got to have sex while soooooo unpredictably everyone barged in and started clapping like morons.
I am also quite surprised at how easy clothes fall of in this series. I mean, yeah it's perfectly believable how if someone falls her panties/bra get immediately visible!

The first season was good and I watched this in hope of getting a good ending at least. Sadly, I was mistaken.
