| Well the series managed to somewhat save itself from entirely being a horrible string or terribly placed fanservice scenes ruining any sort of tension they were otherwise trying to build. The comedy never really landed for me except that one big fuck off demon frying up the little demons on Hana's aura was pretty funny, and the I'm a sucker for some misunderstanding shenanigans ala Yuria. The premise was interesting enough tho. Especially when the golden bois came into the mix. Nice bit of mystery there to keep me more invented, so it was decent overall. |
| Final episode huh. Mieruko-chan really exceeded my expectations. I thought it was like a typical gag type of show with too many recurring jokes but glad I was proven wrong. I know a lot of manga readers hate this anime for adding too much fanservice but they really didn't bother me. Either because I didn't read the manga or that I'm used to seeing ecchi scenes in anime. I think the current MAL score doesn't do the show justice. I really hope a second season is in production. There are just too many mysteries left to be unraveled. The dream scene of Miko in this episode was probably the scariest scene in this season I think. I also feel for Miko's younger brother. I know what it feels like having your pet taken from you, even if they never belonged to you in the first place. I'm gonna miss this series. ari-m said: It was more like a big callback to the first episode and comparing what has (and hasn't) changed in the story since then. I don't think they were reusing animation to cut costs (if they did that at all) as the rest of the episode still looks top-notch. I like when shows look back on to the past episodes beyond recaps.Really? NO ONE thought about those final moments of the finale being REALLY similar to a previous episode? i even thought that Mieruko travelled back in time!. Were they just being lazy with animation and reusing old scenes just to picture that everything stayed the same? or was there more to it?, that was odd as heck for me.. |

iLatrell_ said: should be fine with chapter 24 LeviathanTheEsp said: what part of the manga should I start onA little disappointing. The ending got cut by "It was all a dream", a character got cut, the godmother as a character was literally murdered by this not having 13 episodes and poor Miko couldn't get closure with those creepy gods. |
 |
| cursed neighbour... anyway, would still love to know more about these demons and such, especially with that end. Quite enjoyable, this one. Great performance from Amamiya. sequel-worthy indeed. |
iLatrell_ said: It follows the plot pretty faithfully overall and it's not a long manga so... If you just want to skip to that part... It's just the last 5 or 6 chapters at most I'd think. I'd recommend you to read from the start though... As I said it's not a long manga.LeviathanTheEsp said: what part of the manga should I start onA little disappointing.

That's the sad part... |
| Great final episode, quite thrilling to watch |
 plz @ me |
| 8.5/10 easily anime of the season!! i loved and enjoyed it so much i hope we get a second season some time in the future <3 |

| First I thought he was a cat killer. Then I thought he was just a weird, troubled dude who cared for cats, Now I think he's a weird serial killer, and I'm questioning how someone with those social skills could ever have become a teacher in the first place. Sociopaths can get into anything I suppose...A weird character that I don't really care for, but the way they played around with my expectations with him was fun (though maybe I should have expected it). In the end, the show was decently engaging all season long without getting too repetitive. It doesn't make me want a second season, but I enjoyed what we had. If it was actual 'horror' I wouldn't have been able to watch lol, so I guess that was a good thing. |

| What was up with her dream why are they mad all off a sudden anyway this was good and it’ll probably get another season |
 |
| After that dream Miko should've thanked that god. Maybe cleaned the shrin up a bit like a miko and made an offering. I hope we get s2. Did Zen kill the cat killer? He totally got the wrong idea from Miko's words. |
| Close to greatness with this one. I love the feeling of darkness lurking beneath the cute surface, and there were times the show hit that mood just right. I looked forward to episodes week to week more than most offerings this season, but in the end the plot was buried a bit too deep. The shrine plot ending is way too vague and unsatisfying as is. Maybe there'll be another season one day, but right now it's too much of a manga advertisement to recommend. |
| Zen sensei is not the cat killer, but the cat killer went missing after Zen sensei found him! Soo... |
*the rock raising his eyebrow* |
 |
| Pretty good anime. I didn't expect it to be actually scary. I mean, it did have the horror tag but you know, it's anime. The SoL nonsense with creepy monsters was pretty entertaining, even if the season didn't really progress in plot. 8/10 |
This dance is the pinnacle of human achievement. |
| Great episode! Zen sensei received the cat from Miko and her brother was very sad about it-NEKOMARU!!! Miko went to go say thanks to the shrine maidens who saved her three times but they weren't happy about the dango or the money she gave them... The large monster transformed into this even scarier thing and loads of other ghosts started getting closer to her... However, it was just a dream... This has been a great show imo and I really hope that it gets a second season! |
| AISHITERU...REM! |
| I'm still wondering why the shrine guardians were angry at the end. Because Miko hadn't thanked them earlier? |
this was an excellent anime that showed what history is a comedy with terror with few serious moments that gave a good valance to the chapters, giving a satifying ending I hope this top 10 anime of the fall season has a second season |
| Why no one talking about Zen making that cat killer disappear? I mean he probably killed him , that man went missing |
 |
| All jokes and giant breasts aside, she really needs to pay her respects, otherwise a good rape is justified. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
-Elevate- said: why Are so many people voting 1/5 this anime was awesome lol Oh no, there are boobies and other fanservice, now this anime is ruined! - The MAL Neckbeards |
 |
| Damn this was really one of the hidden gems of this season, easily 8/10 for me. I really hope we are getting S2. Since they teased the shrine spirits at the end I think it likely will happen at some point. I think I would have enjoyed these 3 or so last eps more if I hadn't gotten impatient and binged the manga but overall it was still a solid adaptation. deadbilly said: I'm still wondering why the shrine guardians were angry at the end. Because Miko hadn't thanked them earlier? I suggest reading the manga, it won't take long to catch up and it's already explained there but let me just say without any spoilers, some interesting coincidences happened which all led to that. |
| Miko dealed well with Toono's mother, and now she gave him her cat, which he took with care. Kyousuke couldn't handle it, poor boy xD After what happened, Miko asked Hana if she knew a good food to bring to a temple, and she answered dangos. But the spirits at Miko's dream didn't answer well to it. Yulia decided to watch My Neighbor Totoro, and now will watch the second movie with Hana, but while them three talked about it, somebody was after them... The same spirits of Miko's dream. Looking forward to the second season now! |
 |
| Not going to lie, the scenes at the shrine really became creepy with the good spirits trying to eat Miko-chan, but it was a dream... or was it? Cause seeing the spirits appear again just before it ended, they are royally pissed off. I wonder what is up with that. I guess it's time for me to properly read the manga to understand better what actually happened in this episode. Also, I wonder what Zen is going to do with that cat murderer... Overall a pretty fun show with personally for me really creepy moments. 8/10, looking forward to a S2, cause I really took an interest in the plot after some serious episodes in the second half. I need that life force of Hana, give me the ability to eat a fuck ton and not get any fatter!! |
 |
| I thought it was a bit weird that they left the sponsor messages in until the scene around 23:30. It was pretty unexpected and scary! Though, I wonder how I'd feel if I was watching it whilst it was on TV in Japan. Definitely would've been way scarier. Other than that, this episode felt a little plain. The scene with the cat killer also felt a bit out of place. A little disappointing. I hope this gets another season! |

| I forgot to say: I liked the show a lot. Overall 8/10. It would be 9/10 if it weren't for the ending. Still, the ending was fun to watch even if it disappointed me for butchering the conclusion of the arc. That almost got me to rate it 7/10 but I did enjoy it more than that so 8/10 it is. |
| When the scene cut to the police officers' back, I thought they were putting up a sign of the cat abuser being caught, but then we see a missing poster akjsdkjaskd me the previous ep: oh so zen is just misunderstood he's a good guy ep 12: hmm? (lol) But it's still good to see that he is free now. The lady neighbor is creepy 😬 Miko's brother is really cute hahaha I really enjoyed their interactions Lastly, the shrine spirits seem to be tailing Miko now. I think I'll search up for the manga for this. I enjoyed this series, especially the latter half as more tension was introduced to the plot. Last addition haha: the soundtrack during Miko/Zen's mother ghost confrontation and Miko/shrine spirits dream sequence sound so good ^^b |

| So reading the manga is pretty much mandatory. Not that I don't want to though. I weren't sold at the beginning, but it grew up in me after few episodes. One of the most interesting series of this season. |
| Dub = fake crap. Always. |
| Well I was surprised about the last episode because [without any special spoilers] they changed the story or how it was pictured in the source material. I believe the reason behind it was to end this "season" and make a nice way for the second one. There were some parts missing for me but I believe everything will be explained in the next "part" or "season" Overall it was a nice adaptation - I didn't felt exact same way reading the manga but I'm still happy. If anybody felt the same while watching it I recommend you to read the source material - they pictured those ghosts waaaay creepier and scarier for example and that thing itself is a good reason. Also as the story progress it's more interesting and definitely worth to read. About "post credit" scenes. Someone was watching way too much AOT but it was a nice touch. |
| A nice way to end things off. Lots of unanswered questions which isn't really the most ideal for a series that might only have 1 season but oh well. It's interesting nonetheless The end sponsor part was very clever and I liked what they did with it lmao. I enjoyed the series a lot as a whole |
 |
| An alright ending the a really interesting series, interesting that they really want to leave it open ended, hopefully a sign of an another season. Passione honestly killed it here, definitely love their art style and didn't fail on the horror aesthetics. Horror/Comedy is an unusual genre to intertwine and I was quite impressed with the result. Not forgetting the absolute banger of an OP and ED 8/10 |
 |
| We will get a Season 2 for sure i think. But we will have to wait to 2023 because they need more mangas to make a complete Season. |
| I liked this series more than i thought i would at the start. |
TsutanaiFuun said: We are finally at the last episode of Mieruko chan, this was one of my favourite animes of this season. Glad that Zen's mother's ghost left him and the other spirits too, hopefully Zen must be felling a lot better and lighter. Zen decided to adopt the cat he saved, poor Miko's bro didn't wanna let go of Nekopara xD. Also this dirty old woman, bruh moment. We didn't get to see much of the godmother even at the end, hopefully this anime gets renewed for second season and we know about her story. Also did Zen tase that guy who was gonna hurt the cats? Damn. They got us real good there, I was on the edge of my seat, so scared for Miko and then 💀. I was like nani?? It was genuinely really good though. Miko is finally gotten used to seeing ghosts completely, she isn't scared of them anymore and is able to easily ignore them. Hana's appetite is as healthy as ever. Yulia is starting to get comfortable around Miko and Hana, Yulia keeps coming back for those hugs from Hana xDD. We didn't get a OP or ED with visual in this episode though they played it as background music in the last parts of the episode. They managed to add some fanservice again after many episodes, good fanservice 👍. That running scene was so hilarious, I laughed so hard when Yulia fell lmao, and Hana's running face xDD. Damn now the biggest question is what the good spirits gonna do with Miko. I'm sure Miko is now gonna be reluctant to visit the shrine after that horrifying dream, not gonna lie its possible that something like that might happen with her in real. The balloon ghost is still alive? or should I say not killed? or should I say still present on earth. Yes the latter. The show ends with that cliffhanger damn. This anime was a real good one. I'm gonna be so mad if we don't get a second season of this anime, especially when it ended on a cliffhanger and so many things haven't been wrapped up. Considering how popular this show is there should be no problem in renewing this for second season unless they made this anime for the sole purpose of increasing the manga sales, man I really hope that's not the case. 10/10 anime for me. Gonna miss watching this every Sunday. Gonna go listen to its OP and ED now. Cheers. I just think it will take a long time to have a second season, as there is not much content left in the manga (the anime adapted some 20 chapters and the manga currently has about 36 chapters, around), other than that, the manga release it's monthly, so... yes it will take a while for that to happen.But I really hope it does someday. |
| That was a fun ride. I wonder what the shrine gods' up to, they seem not satisfied for some reason. Definitely need season 2! 9/10 |
