Talk about an overreatction. Miki getting jealous from Jun getting an innocent kiss when he was just a little baby?

It was surprising Jun couldn't recognize the baby in the picture even resembled him. Doesn't he have any baby photos of himself lying around somewhere?

...even a saint needs a soldier to do the dirty work.

psych!
Yeah, given how unusual it seems to be for kisses to occur before the end of a series, it was a bit of a surprise.

I know my parents had pictures of me (and my brother) when we were little, but I was just never into that. I'd be hard pressed to recognize myself at 5, ever mind 1 year.

Too cute. There were some pretty funny moments as well.

Anyone notice that the black cat Yuriko saw from her classroom was the same one that Miki saw when she was on the rooftop? It's as if the cat was there to help the girls bond with their respective boyfriends (I'm assuming Yuriko and that guy got together). Seeing as the girls are from different generations, that's one old cat.

This episode illustrates that even with the passage of time and the advent of new technology like the digital camera, universal experiences such as romance are enduring.

The cat that connects lovers of both past and the future. How sweet.
The pink wind in the shape of a heart (Well, nearly) during the kiss was a lovely touch too.

I didn't even know Miki and Jun were, well, like dating or sth... As girls always react over-dramatically, so did Miki, LOL...

The slow pace w Kenji Kawai's music makes me so nostalghic for Ranma and its slow moments.
Thank you Junji Nishimura for bringing that back!!!

Second half surprised me. Romance never goes that far especially in a non-romance series. This show actually went further than all of Your Lie in April. That's hilarious.

I really enjoyed this episode. The comparison between the older and present generation and how memories and romance are universal between the two. Not as deep as episode 5 but still very nice.

I guess a small flaw is that baby jun looks like present Jun and the woman looks like Nao which makes you suspend your disbelief.

I like this episode. Things happen very naturally, Miki and Jun reconcile in a good way without unnecessary drama.

Oh goodness me, some nostalgia and romance here haha.

I liked this episode a lot. I knew the baby was Jun, literally had the same resemblance lol. But he's come far and so has that other lady.

Still, Jun kinda a desne mf but it all got solved in the end. So good on him and Miki. Let the ship keep sailing.

One of the best ones yet!

Seemed rather dumb they didn't contact Jun's mom immediately for confirmation and for her to reconnect with the woman, I know I would've wanted to.

Theme is definitely "connecting."
