| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Ha, I found this episode/finale's ideas to be strange. It basically took the idea of fantasy RPG themes and transformed it into a story. There's obvious fan service with the outfits. Oh wait they added tentacle fan service because why not. It felt like an OVA episode rather than a finale imo. I guess the show tried to do something more different. Rest of the epsiode seemed normal enough with the usual slice of life stuff. We even got an arm wrestling contest! 7/10. |
 |
| Unpredictable as always. Why arm wrestling? It's ok but the tournament consumed half of the show. |
| Well the arm wrestling competition was a bit strange especially for an ending but it was funny to watch. The RPG part was better tho it was funny to watch them fight like that, the magic spells took so long and the dance. |
| This show is so quirky. 8/10 Mainly for the war history episode and little bits of Shoujo Ai. |

| Mediocre end to a mediocre show... |
| lol this show was "different" and i fucking loved it<3 underrated af XD |
   |
| That was pretty underwhelming. It really did feel like an OVA. |
| This was an odd finale. A fantasy story in RPG style for the first half and an arm wrestling match for the second half. Hime won of course. |
 |
| I'll pretend that this episode didn't exist. This show was one big ball of meh, the strength of the show which is the background lore that it SHOULD have focused on the most felt like it went to the backburner for bland character interactions and bland comedy after all. |
| nooo it's over I hope this gets another season. ending with fan service and arm wrestling wasn't expecting that. kyouko became my favorite character during the rpg skit she did everything at her own pace it was too funny especially during the slime bit you know she wanted to just stand there and watch. quetzalcoatl trying to help by dancing was funny but very effective with the ghost. mitama as the final boss was interesting to say the least. the arm wrestling bit was pretty much only to see who can beat hime, I'm surprised we didn't get one final history lesson. can I just say I loved hime's twintail look I don't know why but I loved it. not going to lie I'm going to miss this show I hope it gets another season or at the very least some ova's or specials. the one thing I loved about this anime was the world build up giving us history lessons, ways of life, and conflict. The only thing better than that was the overload of cuteness when this anime tried to do cute it didn't just do it, it perfected it leaving you wanting more and that's one of things I'm disappointed with this episode no cuteness with shino or mitama's sister's. If this does get another season I hope they continue with the world building, explaining the government spying, mitama's family problems, mixed species, sue chans ghost friend (actually I just want to see more of the ghost), how certain species deal with certain situations (like how centaurs put on swimsuits), what I'm trying to say is I need more. |
| Definitely a disappointing ending to an otherwise great show. The RPG half was just stupid, with pointless fan-service in a show that definitely doesn't need it. The arm-wrestling half was actually quite funny, but it's an odd way to end the series. Overall, this was the most surprising anime I've seen in a good long while. I only clicked on it on CR as a lark, thinking it was absolutely not my kind of show. But I got hooked. The slice-of-life vignettes from genuinely likable characters mixed well with the compelling lore of the world, along with discussion of mature topics like same-sex relationships and racism. The biggest complaint I have is that it didn't lean into that lore and discussions more often, but I suppose if it became too serious, that would ruin the show. I certainly hope it gets another season. Why not? 8/10 |
| nice RPG and the second half was nice also, though it sucks the little ones wasnt part of this final ep but with that said watching this final ep just left me with wanting more of this series so am hoping a season 2 will happen someday love this series |
| "one step at a time" |
| And so we end with a rpg video game-esque parody showing off Hime's big, beautiul tits just like in the opening. I have one major takeaway from this series: that it was actually two series. One of the two I expected and enjoyed. The other I did not. Going in I expected a fun, goofy, adorable, slightly yurilicious cgdct series with monster girls. And for the most part, I got that. Telling scary stories/horror movies, eavesdropping on dates, arm wrestling, spending time with the adorable little siblings/cousins, etc... What I wasn't expecting was a big brother-esque somewhat dark government subplot that felt shoehorned in and was never welcomed or interesting. For the most part it was only mentioned in passing or rose to the surface for a few minutes and then vanished. All of one episode was entirely tonally different from the rest, one: The random nazi-esque concentration camp flashback and toad-man visit episode, or maybe he was a frog I forget. I'd ask why this series felt the need to devote as much of its limited run time to this type of stuff as it did, I'd ask what was the point of it, but I honestly don't care. It detracted from what I wanted, enough said. I'll give this a slightly generous 7/10, but don't really ever see myself watching it again. A shame, that might have been different had the series been show A throughout its run. |

| That was an okay finale, but I thought it should've a better finale episode because it's just like a usual episode of Centaur no Nayami. Haha. As always, it's so random. The first half is full of fanservice, maan, with them wearing a bikini or whatever that called, and Himeno's top melted by the amoeba thing. Haha. I really thought they're playing a video game. It was just for a play and it's just their imagination. Pfft. Himeno asking the question "Why were we arm wrestling?" is pretty much everyone throughout that arm wrestling scene. Haha. I have no complaints when it comes to this show entirely since I enjoyed every episode of it and I honestly loved all the characters and the quality of its animation, so 8/10. :) |

| I actually want to check out the manga because this whole show was a big pile of WTF. I really don't understand why it was popular enough to justify an anime adaptation. The tone of each story just swings around at random, from ecchi to tragedy, with little to justify any of it at all. Plus the titular centaur, Hime, is dull as dirt. I did get a laugh out of a reference to "getting cozy ekiben style." I had to look that up and the urbandictionary results were suitably entertaining. Otherwise, this show was mainly a waste of time and talent. |
| I thought this show couldn't have gotten any worse but it managed to prove me wrong. Yeah let's end a mediocre series with fanservice and a random contest that had no real point. I'm sorry but this was just a disappointing series in every possible way even for a Slice of Life/"comedy" series. What would have been a 6/10 from me drops to a 3/10. Worst of the season in my eyes. |
| Don't believe the hype. |
| RPG storytelling and a arms wrestling match for the heroine role :) It was comfy 8/10 |
 |
| It's one of those series that no one will get and will, unfortunately, fall to the back of MAL rankings quietly. I won't forget this series though. I honestly enjoyed the show in its entirety and loved the tonal whiplash. It wanted to convey a lot of messages all at once while trying to keep the interest of the people it was trying to reach as well as the people that were either not looking for lessons or were too unaware of its attempt to convey those lessons. It was a nice, relaxing series for me. Solid comfy 8/10. It's a shame most won't see this series for what it is. |

Uh oh, sounds like someone needs a visit to the correctional facility ;P Personally I enjoyed the dark bits far more than the rest of the show. The cutesy bits like with Tama's sisters, while adorable, on their own would have made this show another generic moeblob slice of life anime among the 100's of others already out there. But, to each their own I guess lol. That said, this last episode was a pretty poor way to end the series. Humorous but overly bland for the finale. |

 Sadistic does fit Manami. |
 |
| What a crappy end to a good show. |
| What a silly end to a silly show. |
 |
| The first half being an RPG setting with fan service! Why bikini armor? It doesn't suit them! And yes, the truth about casting spells taking forever. And that amoeba giving me Queen's Blade vibes... Manami the dominatrix queen tho... I liked the second half though. Centaur no Nayami actually was able to fit a full tournament arc in 10 minutes. When Manami won, I guessed "Carrying the kids all day?" and I was right, haha! As for Hime winning, I honestly wasn't surprised. She's a centaur. She's got weight and an extra pair of legs for support. Even if Manami was tough, I doubted that she would have won against Hime. Fun! An episodic ending to an episodic anime. It had its ups, it had its downs. Some episodes were really intriguing, and some episodes were really dull. Overall, I found it quite enjoyable. Not the best of the season, but certainly not the worst. I'll remember this anime and Manami Mitama as best mom of 2017. |

| That was the least impressive ending ive seen in awhile. Not even remotely felt like one. Wanted it to be more serious for the last episode. |
 |
| This felt so out of place it made me rate it a 6 instead of 7. It was ok and enjoyable i guess but nothing really stood out aside from the more serious eps |
 |
| I think they did the arm wrestling to determine who will be the heroine for the play, the reason for the fantasy RPG story proposal in part A. The only SoL anime this season that I enjoyed. B part was better than A part. 8/10 |

| Damn, random on random. Khaoticsuccubus said: Was more distracted by Himeno's apparent Herculean strength lol. Now you know. Antagonized said: the reason for the RPG game story proposal in part A For the first episode, where Hime catches "Prince". Also, is it melted and changed color to Hime's "fur" or what? |
| Titan of 20+ virgins club. |
| Liked this show a lot. It kinda became my dark horse of the season. It did some quite unusual things you don't see too often in anime. If they went a bit further with that and if it would have gotten a somewhat better adaption, it could have been even better. |
| The last episode should have been different, end it with a arm wrestling was weird...but I enjoyed it, we even got some yuri couples and it was fun to watch. 7/10 |
 |
| I didn't even realize that this was the final episode until the end card. Hmmm, I really liked some of the themes discussed on the show and the characters, especially the French Frog guy, were great, but the regular elements were just okay. I remember someone mentioning that the manga gets really dark for some of their story arcs, so I might check it out eventually. But the ending was kind of weak. |

| Not one, but two climatic battles against the class president! Fitting for a final episode. :D Yes, this anime did a pretty good job translating the manga's atmosphere of randomness. Except it had a big preference for fanservice. Not that I'm complaining.

I assure you, the manga provides even more delicious WTF moments. Since you have YKK and Nichijou in your favorites, I expect you to like it. Why is it popular enough? 1) After Life with Monster Girls, shows about not-quite-humans became popular. Like Demi-chan in spring. And this one is one of the best. 2) Because it is very much seinen. It talks about difficult topics, and allows the reader to make his/her own conclusions. 3) Cute catgirls and sexy centauresses don't hurt. Tarotist said: The first half being an RPG setting with fan service! Why bikini armor? It doesn't suit them! Because it's Akechi the class pervert who wrote the scene. Even though she is supposed to be a clothes enthusiast. Looks like just different lighting to me. The corridors are lit by orange torchlight, but the throne room seems to be lit by "daylight" lamps. Antagonized said: I think they did the arm wrestling to determine who will be the heroine for the play There is something wrong with determining the heroine of the play with arm wrestling. animefan8800 said: toad-man visit episode, or maybe he was a frog He is an "amphibian". His kind used to be called "frogfolk" in the past, but according to "scientific" article in the manga, they are not part of the order Anura, to which frogs and toads belong to, and have split from amphibians we know quite early on. |
| Really good episode! But... why were they arm wrestling? I feel like this show was really difficult to get into at first. But the second half of the season really hit a good stride, and felt like they were really just having fun with everything. I liked it. |
| Wait wait wait wait... that's what they think humans look like? Also that victory dance was just perfect. The whole sequence was in a way, perfect. Especially the slime... THIS IS WHAT I'VE BEEN WAITING THE ENTIRE SEASON FOR. The arm wrestling bit while pretty okay felt... slow... like, everyone's responses took a while to come out, and I'm not sure if this is a problem that has plagued this anime for a while or not, but I feel like it has. Anyway, with that this anime has... I guess ended... I guess this is what could be considered a finale... I think... whatever, anime was good, I enjoyed it, Hime is great. 7/10. LONG LIVE THE THICK CENTAUR PRINCESS. |

(Bursts into the room) DID SOMEBODY MENTION THE MANGA!?!?!? I totally recommend you check out the manga. The general flow is better, the world building is a bit more in-depth, there's greater focus on the social themes, and there's some cool darker, conspiracy elements involved in some arcs. I don't blame the anime for its weaknesses, television adaptations have time limitations and need to try appealing to a wider audience. Personally, I prefer the manga. All in all, a decent adaptation. This was a bit of a weird note to end the series on, I would have preferred something a bit more heart-warming/cute, but in a way it worked. The animation could have been better at times, but I guess it's no big deal. 6/10 |
Being the last episode, they needed to show who the real main heroine of the show was, of course! And it's Hime! Definitely an odd duck, as far as "monster girl" anime are concerned. You'd have fanservice, cute moments, slice-of-life stuff...and then you'd have the holocaust. I liked it for being different from the usual. But I'm still a little mixed on it, overall. Doesn't help that the final episode didn't feel like much of a final episode. Guess they're leaving it open for people who want to dive into the manga. So, hey, can we get a little spinoff series about the misadventures of the Chi-chans and Sue-chan? That'd be swell. |

Yes, I get it. I was following through with the repetitive nature of the joke from the episode. lol |
Mormegil said: Whoops. Duh. I just killed the joke, huh? :D Nah, you're good. lol |
| It wan't much as an finale. But overall this anime was fantastic! Incredible world-building. I especially like the casual throw-in of ghosts and spirits. |
| Man, I have to stop falling in love with fictitious high school girls'...moms! |
