----------------------------------------
All those poses this episode lol!
Tsubasa continues to prove herself as best girl.

Really glad to see a lot of focus on her this episode. The manga ideas are still pretty typical as usual, nothing really too special but cute.

Well it seems the evil tests are here and the girl had a hard time with it, most of them anyway.
And it looks like the adults had a nice night out as well.
Seeing them drunk was funny.

I kinda feel bad for Kaoruko every time her storyboard gets rejected. It was nice of Amisawa to give her some encouragement. The poses the girls were doing to study were funny. It was good to see more of the adults.

Kao's is too hard on herself. The girls attempt to cheer Kao's up though was heartwarming. Koyume's manga idea though was hilariously weird. Tsu's ability to switch persona's so quickly though is amazing. Koyume and Tsubasa sure looked like they had fun acting out the knowledge they learned. Its funny how Miharu, Riraka and Kao's editor all know each other and all manage the girls lives to some degree. The interactions between the three were quite funny especially Miharu's. An interesting episode that focused on not just the girls but also on the adults that support them as well. The focus into the struggles that they faced when supporting the girls was interesting.

Apparently Kaos actually has technically debuted already, it's just literally no one besides her mom liked it. For whatever reason I was under the impression she hadn't even debuted yet. Well regardless, this episode actually dealt with what is easily me least favorite aspect of the show: the running gag of Kaos being a meek little bag of failure professionally. Seriously when the girls all said they were the same in an early showing of unity all I could think was no, you really aren't. Three of you are at least somewhat successful, and the other is Kaos. It's nice you support her, but that only goes so far. Eventually Kaos must experience some sort of real success in her work, or this is gonna fall flat for me. It feels like the show wants to have things both ways. It wants to try and seemingly earnestly address Kaos' relationship with her Editor, but then make jokes about her continuing to be the butt monkey she has been for the entire series in that regard. I hope I'm wrong, but with just 4 episodes left I fear she isn't gonna get that success she desperately needs and it'll just be played off for some more cgdct antics. Which would be fine if this whole little sideplot didn't exist, I'd honestly probably prefer it didn't, but it does and I'm really not liking it in what is otherwise a pretty good series. It's a shame really, but oh well.

Really nice seeing the 3 onee-san girls having some more screen time and they even showed us the time when they were younger.

I found it funny and cute when sensei was jumping around while holding Tsubasa's manga.

I laughed so hard at koymes manga, the love intrest was just a male tsubasa and the This is a pen was amazing XD!
I think that kaos will manage to get a manga out by the end of the series tbh, I feel so bad for her at the moment, she always trys so hard!
btw what was the stuff they were saying about the dorm, is it actually going to be closed?

Is that one of those situations where the author cannot let the MC acomplish her/her dream/objetive because if he does, he will lack off ideas? Because after all the efforts of Kaos and the help of the other girls is weird that she still suck so hard.

Hope to see Kaos doing at least a piece of work which she can be proud until the end of the season.

Oh Koyume, your manga is brilliant! "This is a pen." cracked me up so hard! I am lost for words XD

Thoses were pretty funny and Koyume actually posed during the test but only thing she remembered was Tsubaba-chan XD

We get a bit of focus on the adults this episode. Which was a really nice change of pace. Mayu really adores Kaos and how hard she works, she's just very strict and can't lie to her. You'll get there Kaos!

Miharun is so adorable when drunk or when obsessed with Tsubasa's Manga.

The manga dorm will be torn down? Noooo :(

Lul at this rate Kaos is never going to succeed. Kinda wished one of the girls would have recognized drunk sensei. It would have been pretty funny. Supposedly the dorm will be torn down; I wonder if the anime will get to that. Tbh this feels more like a series where the girls work together to save the dorm to keep the feel of the story the same.

Well, we got a "spoiler" about what's going to happen for the final episode, and I expect to cry from it :'c.

I teared up a little when Mayu was crying over Kaos situation, probably the laughs made me lose my "anti-feels defenses" :'D.

More wan nyan festival please :'3.

I'm actually starting to feel bad for Kaos-chan. Someone please publishes her work!! I'll buy it, I swear! ;_;

That said, the second part was really good. As someone said above, it was a nice change of pace to focus on the three women who also wanted to draw manga when they were in high school. It had some funny moments, including the great appearance of Fuura-senpai xD and it was also really heartwarming at the end as well.

You can do it Kaos, I believe in you!

Her art is very cute, maybe instead of manga, she can do those youtube drawing channel things, where she tells a story and uses her cute art to illustrate it!

But oncoming drama when the dorm gets closed. Just why? You have four mangakas still staying there.

Well... it's an improvement over that one with the girl being eaten alive by food... They didn't really tackle her horrible art, but they did handle her crappy storyboards, so hopefully she improves a little thanks to that, and we know she can do backgrounds. Also the adults got their own version of the outro.

But now I'm worried about what they are going to do after the dorms get taken down, how will they continue on after this?

Oh, Kaoruko...

Despite her shortcomings, Kaoruko truly deserves praise for her determination and persistence. However, she needs to forge a path ahead soon.

The drunken teacher without her make-up clad in a school uniform was unexpectedly delicious, albeit obnoxious.

This episode made me have a range of emotions, just like the others. I love this series. It is up there in my faves lol. Probably dethroning YuYuuHakusho as my number 3. Still love YYH tho. I loved the ENGURISHU joke. This is a pen. Is this a pen? Holy crap I'm so gonna tell that to my crush in my weird man voice. She'll love that. The part with Amisawa trying to help Kaoroku almost made me cry. It takes a lot for me to almost cry. Also the teacher in the school uniform is hot. New nut material.


In case you are wondering what makes me cry here are some examples

Krillin's first death (Dragon Ball)
Iggy's sacrifice (Jojo Part 3)
Ash releasing Butterfree (Pokémon)
Atem passing on to the afterlife (Yu-Gi-Oh Duel Monsters)
Prosecutor Miles Edgeworth chooses death (Phoenix Wright Justice for All)

The dorm part getting torn down kinda makes sense. Stuff like this sometimes happens. Usually due to various factors like financial struggle or security issues. It most likely would be financial issues in this case.

That line about the dorm getting teared down stopped me from enjoying this series the first time I watched this because I was worried it would turn into Sakurasou in it's final episodes. When re-watching it, even though I know it doesn't turn into Sakurasou now, somehow that line does even MORE damage to my enjoyment of the series.

GOD DAMN IT, if those two lines weren't present, the series would be a lot better.

After the first episode, this one is the best of the lot I've watched so far in this series. With this episode the series, in my mind, finally stands on its own and not in the shadow of another series I watched about 11 years ago.

Well.. It's at the same time 2 things with Kaos.. One, she might really want to try take critique as exact advises what to fix.. Like.. Draw characters differently.. On the other hand.. It's been a while and many failures for her already.. So it's understandable, why she's depressed about this, doing no good for a long time, and works not accepted several times.. And who knows, if manga is her thing or not in the end, really.. She is a good and nice girl, not worthless, just her existence makes world better for people around, including her friends.. But is manga truly her thing - who knows?..
"This is a pen" - best line to flirt with girls, lol.. ;P
Aw, Amisawa wrote sweet message to Kaos, telling that break is important as well.. ;p
So Kaos is really depressed by things, but also trying very hard, doesn't she?..

Honestly, I think that maybe this series might end on a bitter note.. It's not necessary that Kaos will become a good mangaka, and anime might just end on thing that no matter how hard you try, sometimes you just have to accept that not all things are your things.. As in real life, you know.. Maybe I or whoever would like to be actor, singer, or someone, but it doesn't necessary mean that we can become them, even with hard work.. .. Of course, I'm not sure anime will end like this, but it can end like this..
