| Wow what a great ep. Damn cliffhanger. Ciran said: I broke down when the twins started crying T_T I was pretty close at that part too. |
| Loved this episode, finally got some good ol' romance in this. They even held hands while walking! |
 |
| This show gets the award for most natural romantic chemistry. |
| What a gut punch of an episode! And it started off so hilarious... "Shall I lock the door?" :D Lots of tender Hatchiken x Aki moments! <3 (I wish i was as bold and strong as Hatchiken) Lots of sad moments as well... I got really upset seeing Komaba farm sold off and when Aki's family wanted to sell the horses. That's how invested i am in this show! It seems this anime also wants to explore some of the more unfortunate sides to farming, like what happens if your ranch fails or when an only child refuses to take over the business... I don't think Hatchiken is going to be very popular with the Mikage family now! :o 10/10 pitch perfect episode! It seemed to just fly by... So much so that i wasn't too shocked when the ED started playing! (Even though there were still 5 minutes left lol) |
| Nearly cried like 3 times. |
| This episode was soooo cute! Two more episodes. I need a 3rd season |
| O importante não é o que fazemos de nós, mas o que nós fazemos daquilo que fazem de nós |
| I feel absolutely heartbroken :( |
I have my own anime blog. It's called Anime Viking. Hope you'll you read it! |
| it's been 10 minutes since i finished the episode...still shaking. brb screaming omg so. good. the early ED scared me a bit but at the end, i knew that putting it earlier was a good decision to build up the drama near the end. like bam the feels. BOOM. BentoLegend said: This episode went by too fast. I'm at a loss of words now. Just dangle me from your cliff hangers Gin No Saji! jimjameswhatever said: This show gets the award for most natural romantic chemistry. ^^^^^^^ |
| This episode was so heart breaking. I can't forget Komaba's smile at the end. And I want to know Mikage's family's reaction to what she said. Still, I am glad with the huge progress in Hachiken and Aki's relationship. |
| omg I was like tearing up through most of the episode, it's all so sad :( I could totally relate to what they were saying when they were talking about forgetting about your dreams and focusing on what others want you to do and be like. Cliffhanger end agh why |

| wow gay |
cyborgneko999 said: DAT ENDING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NEXT EPISODE WHERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Dat ending indeed. Wonder if the gramps said that just to give Mikage a little push so she can express her true feelings about her future. |
 |
| If somebody told me earlier I'd cry about cows being sold, I would laugh out loud. Then Gin no Saji happened. |
| 「私には夢があります！」 That was kinda powerful... |
| Amazing episode. This season is so much more dramatic. I love it. |
 |
| This episode is so depressing that I tear up. But it's a very good episode. that cliffhanger. |
 ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ |
| Hachiken going a good job raising flags at Mikage... :D and money really does make the world go around... |
 don't worry, i know IMG tags are turned off...i'm just lazy to change my sig... xD |
| Finally she said it ^_^ Let's see what happens next. |
 |
| "Want me to lock the door?" xD Aw.. I need more Hachiken x Mikage moments Things will be get more and more serious from now on!! Where's Tokiwa when you need him? xD |
"Signature removed"   |
| 5/5 How sad to see the cows go away! T_T What a sublime narrative made up of real truth. It is so distressing to find the real problems even in animation, but also about what makes the anime series not only be a product of entertainment without roots that bind them to reality. Excellent story so funny and serious, intense and engaging. I do not understand how it could come to some people, the idea of giving him a vote of 2/5...mah! Technically it is well done. |
 |
| It's weird -- it feels as if the second season takes hat the first season established and either builds it up, deconstructs it, or tears it down. Lots of tearing down this episode. Komaba Farm: おわり． |
 |
| "Do you want me to lock the door ?" lol |
Forgetfulness said: I have mixed feelings about the end. Sure, it's supposed to be all "follow your dreams"/optimistic kind of outlook but really I can't help but think that Mikage pursuing her individual dream is selfish considering the amount of money and people involved. Unless her dream involves making a ton of money, similar to Ichirou's pro baseballing My thoughts exactly, it's easy to say things like follow your dream but that future is uncertain at least and you can't make enough of money when you aren't pro on top. And Mikage wasn't training so much during her youth to become one (my two cents). Not to mention he is only making more problems for further relations with her relatives as they would know it was him who persuaded her to this which could lead them to hate him for it. Well, it's really bad to lose a farm and to decide how to go on but this time Hachiken felt out of place all the time - he really just meddled in just to see it. I really don't like his explanation to Mikage's father about why he went there and he was poking his nose into family business in the last part. I would understand this if he was her childhood friend or fiancé (not to tell it won't be resolved this way) but he really shouldn't have been there as her... friend. As such all his comments felt out of place. At least I liked their talk on the road when walking back to her house. |

| Hmmm... that ED trick almost got me. How are they going to resolve everything in two episodes by the way? |
| Dramatic opening, that last part though haha. I tasted Fresh milk before and its so good. Mikage's great-grand mother was cute there. Nice teeth Finally, Mikage told her dream. 2 episodes left T^T |
| After the ED played, I instinctively closed the tab lol. That end...here we go. |
"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness." "May those who defy their fate be granted glory." |
It's fun seeing this scene in both medium. |
 |
| Weird ending placement... but in general quite a dark episode. |

Unless her dream involves making a ton of money, similar to Ichirou's pro baseballing You need to get your of your basement and realise that not everything in life is about money. Why should she take over her family's farm just because whatever future career she may or may not have may or may not generate as much money as the farm? And, as you must have learned from this series, farming is very often not an illustrious or prosperous profession. Aki's family is being equally as "selfish", pushing her into doing something she really doesn't want to do. |

| Heartbreaking episode. At least Mikage finally said it. Though I'm really curious how her family will take it. They've been expecting Mikage to take over the farm ever since. Dang 2 episodes to go. |
 |
| Komabaaaaaa.... huhuhuhu T___T </3 This anime really has gotten more serious especially when compared to the first season and I love it, but still... so damn sadddd... T____________T |
 . . . . . ✘ . . . . .DO NOT touch my rice. . . . . . I'm Asian. . . . . . |
| Hachiken x mikage <3 I feel bad for komaba god dammit! |
| That was super sad, seeing all the cows go away. Mikage's family wants to sell all their horses and she finally started to tell them about her dream. |
 |
| I feel so bad for the Kumadas :( I think it's very mature and romantic of Hachiken to want to be involved in these trying times - love isn't all just flowers and rainbows after all |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| Senpai, please lock the door, we want to see more intimate moments between them! |
 |
| The part they zoomed in on at the start of the episode was Hokkaido island which is north of the main Japanese island of Honshu. They mention a couple times in past episodes residing in Hokkaido. |
 |
| Damn. What a sad episode. Feel bad for the twin sisters. That cliffhanger! The episode just ends abruptly. |
| 15 million yen?! That's... quite... HUGE!!! |
 |
| Not really -it's about $190k. Actually it all doesn't really make sense, for a commercial farm that is or recently was profitable enough for expansion -190K is 'chump change'; they should have rather easily been able to get another bank loan or renegotiate their current one or even sell off part ownership. Either this is just shitty writing or their situations are way worse -like pretty bad financial negligence worse (predatory loans, cooked books, etc.); legit institutions generally do not give loans to hopelessly doomed businesses. And I don't know how to break it to some of you but plenty of kids worry about finances all the time; money is one of the main reasons for domestic fighting and family break ups -the show puffed Hachiken up as being smart but his actual behaviour is naive and kind of dumb, he is only 'smart' when it's convenient for the plot. It's like those "smart" "scientists", who take off their helmets and touch weird unknown eggs on alien planets. |
| This episode was such a massive gut-punch surrounding Komaba's family situation and outcome, and a reality check with a terrific and tense final few minutes surrounding Aki confronting her family about her dream, despite the family being in a very complicated situation and having no other potential heirs but her so far. Hachiken of course was fantastic too in this episode, especially post-credits when being a pillar to Aki and being there for her during one of her most terrifying, complicated and potentially life-changing moments in her life. I love how Aki did not hesitate one bit in confiding in Hachiken and borrowing his courage after their talk early on too, its a nice touch for her character. |
| So much development for Hachiken x Mikage. We've been seeing them together a lot lately. And when they were walking back to Mikage's, they were holding hands! ^^ They better start dating soon~ And I hope one episode is dedicated to that date they were talking about. |
