I believe they are still going to air the original 12 episodes, this one was just a re-airing with some additional stuff in it to at least put something on the air while Shaft was working on Bakemonogatari 14. I believe everything was pushed back a week or something with AT-X and they're pushing back their scheduling or Shaft will just release whatever they can't fit into their timeslot on their website or something along those lines.

Anybody know if this ever happened to the anime, Ef? I picked up Ef after both seasons finished airing, so I wouldn't know.

...No. There was no unscheduled recap like this...

Meh, this should be no surprise to anyone. In fact, I think it's reasonable for fans to expect at least one recap episode in any SHAFT show.

At least they do good work, in the end.

As a Hidamari fan, it makes me happy to see how the tables have turned from the start of the season :D

Ehh well SHAFT is a small studio with a limited amount of animators. Since they're doing two shows this season (three if you count the rest of Bakemonogatari), I guess they'll definitely have some constraints to scheduling.

Recap episode in the middle of 12 episodes long anime... yeah...

And nothing of value was lost.

Gee, it sure is SHAFT in here.

Dear me... SHAFT it's getting on my nerves allright...

Ah,,, I don't think a recap is necessary, ah well,, it's not like I'm dying to see the next episode :0
