| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- The Christmas episode, where a fluids research professor rediscovers the spark that, in his childhood, lead him down his life's path as a scholar. The little sub-story about the 4 candles was a nice touch, really driving home the Christmas spirit. |
| Ideal anime wife? |
| a nice christmas episode where ryuu makes a black velvet(beer and champagne mixed) even though the fluid dynamics professor calls it impossible |
 |
| Miwa is a star. ... yes... Too many owned for the poor professor. |
| Yum, Guinness... lol Awesome episode. That funny guy really acted awkward. |
| Great episode to watch for Christmas. |
| Very fun episode this time. Maybe my favorite |
 |
| A woman named "Love". Wow, isn't that symbolic? Miracles or hope. Well, this episode sure was cute in a way. For some reason though, the narrator's tone of voice irritated me in a way. |
 |
| Not my most favorite episode as I disliked the professor but well the mix sure was interesting and the xmas theme was also pretty lovely! Let's see what the last episode has to offer us though. |
 |
| The OST at 17:22 was amazing. I'll have to DL it later. So you can mix champagne and beer? This anime can teach so many things~ nice episode |
| Gonna re-watch this on Christmas Day. |

| Oh nice christmas episode |
 |
| Never knew you could mix champagne and beer together o.o Now i wanna try it out... Really nice episode again. It's been incredibly consistent so far. Well... Just one more episode to go! 8/10 |

| Unlike the other more sentimental ones, this episode was on the comedic side. The professor was a bit annoying imo, but there are definitely people like that irl, who've become socially awkward due to dedicating their whole life on one thing. Ryuu did a great job dealing with him. I thought the professor was going to compare Black Velvet with a star, but nope, he compared it to BLACK VELVET! Lol. The narrative is interesting, how characters from past episodes show up, break the fourth wall, and introduce things together. |
| This was my least favorite episode by far. Basically a mood killer with its silly music, goofy professor, the kiss, and everything else weird about this episode. Boo-urns. |

| That professor was really creepy. |
 |
| Not the best the episode so far, in my opinion but it was nice tho. I loved seeing the characters from previous episodes telling the story and finally, the story of the four candles was the best part of all this, very hearth warming. |
| LOL this episode was the funniest hahaha The Professor is a weirdo lol. We all know a pretty girl irl wouldn't go for someone like him at a bar unless he had the monies :P And the other batenders shaking their head when Ryuu said anyone can make the Black Velvet like he does LMAAAOOOO xDDD |
| That "black velvet" sure made that professor drink his words, which shows science is powerless against the power of spirits. I guess they have their own language. Great Christmas episode which depict that alcohol is unpredictable. |

| Just one more episode of this non-stop snooze-fest. I really wish I hadn't added this to my list for the 2018 AWC. If I hadn't committed to it, I could've dropped it after episode 3. Oh well....here I go, on to the last episode. |

You'd think an old man like you would be into a show about alcohol and life's problems. This show is calm, relaxing, and informative, IMO. Total snooze fest. And, to be honest, you'd think an old man like me wouldn't be watching anime at all...but here we are. Believe it or not, not everyone beyond their 20s looks forward to quiet evenings in front of the fireplace, working jigsaw puzzles and knitting their grandkids matching sweaters. I've got a lot of life left in me, as I hope you will when you also reach old age......cause it happens to everybody. |

I was mostly joking/being rude, but yea I think you can be into actiony shows and slice of life stuff as well. Attack on titan (season 1 at least) and some of season 2 and 3 of My hero academia put me to sleep. It's all a matter of preference. Snooze-fest for one person is masterpiece for another. Important thing is to keep watching and have fun. |

| The Black Velvet drink was stunning for only two ingredients, made me possibly want to try it. Weirdly enough the Professor is true to real life crazies but I thought his field study for a story about liquor was quite the right fit. Overall I wasn't into this very much at all. But then again I hate Christmas so maybe it's rubbing off on me? |
 |
| the professor looked a lot like tenma from Monster |
| Beer and champagne ? People here would receive a Nackenklatscher for that. |

| Good old christmas lessons of everyone should always fit in and academics are losers with no social skills and should be rightfully hated by everyone, yes. God I hate japan sometimes. |
   |
| Beer and champagne.. now that sounds interesting! I'm not a fan of Guinness, but I'd be down for a black velvet. The creepy professor was written/animated/played extremely well and as it made me cringe with how loud/goofy he was being in such a sophisticated bar. Only one more episode.. boooooo. |
| If we are going guinness, we go with a black and tan! |
 |
| I really liked the professor. He was funny and brought a touch of comedy to the show. I also liked the song that was playing in the background while the professor was speaking. |
  |
| Nice Christmas episode, I might watch this on Christmas |
| Doesn't look like santa to me, lacks a bit of white beard. Still lovely christmas. Ryu is quite the miracle worker for showing the fluid dynamics professor that two different alcohols can mix with something called 'spirit' |
 |
| Christmas episode which is charitable I guess. |
"......If I told you that I was a real witch, would you believe it?"  |
| It's a Christmas episode. I love it. The onoy thing that feels contrived is the kiss by that girl on the professor. It's great because it has its own retelling of Pandora's Box in the 4 candles. I anticipated that the fourth candle was hope after peace, faith, and love went out. It shows the struggles on social awkwardness of a nerd, something that I greatly relate on. It seems that previous characters are also being used as narrators. |
