The episode was really good, how long before the finale?

That was an intense competition. Congratulations, Tonbo! And congratulations, everyone! You all did your very best.

Poor Hinoki. :( Well, at least her father finally understood how badly he had behaved towards her. It was kinda his fault for what she did.

I'm glad Hinoki didn't quit, after all.

Overall, this was mostly an average show, even though it had its moments. I just didn't find this so interesting to watch. Not a big of golf in general, but the characters and atmosphere also felt kinda bland. Sure, that's only my opinion.

However, I liked this better than Birdie Wing.

Hopefully Sorairo Utility will be more entertaining.

Was good that Ema felt she played her best. But I feel that was the pain making her hallucinate a little.

Last group choked. And Tonbo won.

Honestly, this is my favorite golf anime. Purely about sport.

Like other episodes, some technical insights were omitted. If episode 1 and 13 were used other than recap things, the show could have been better.

That was a perfect episode.
Everyone tried their best to win.
I did predict that Hinoki would confess at the end, but I thought she would actually win, maybe the tie with Tonbo was the best option.
I really like how Hinoki's father admitted to how tough he was on her, I think they will have a better relationship from now on.
Congratulations Tonbo!

I'm honestly surprised that this episode isn't the finale because it certainly feels like one

The synopsis suggests that episode 13 is likely to be more of a recap. Since there’s no point in doing a recap for a concluding anime, Japanese fans speculate that it might also serve as an announcement for a 3rd season.

In Twitter the official account retweet this "The next episode will be next year, and it's not even called the final episode...!" (Google Translated) which might hint there'll be a sequel?

Fun show. Average show overall between the two seasons but probably my favorite golf anime at least compared to the ones I've watched (Birdy Wing and the shonen netflix one) It felt the most realistic and faithful to the sport at the very least. Hope we see one more season maybe another time skip in a more highstakes tournament?

Congratulations Tonbo on winning the tournament she was just too strong for the others. Glad to see that Hinoki won't be quitting she has bright future ahead of her.

I’m really surprised there’s only 4K interested in this show with only 2360 watching it. I’ve enjoyed both seasons and look forward to it every week.

I was surprised with how they ended the episode, it made it seem like a finale. So I came here to check if there truly is another episode lol.

Tonbo won! Hooray! :D I was not expecting that, but each girl was in a difficult situation of their own, so it was always going to be close. I was also not expecting Hinoki's father to just break down and admit his fault in poisoning his daughter's mindset. But I'm glad he did. And I'm glad Hinoki confessed, though I fear she might get suspended. Probably not, I hope not, but we'll see. I predicted Tsubura would try the same shot Tonbo did to get on the green, but I also doubted she had what it takes to make it count. And I was right - her shot put her on the green, but in a difficult spot and she needed more strokes than Tonbo to finally get it in. Well played nonetheless, Tsubura. Poor Ema though :( Nothing was going her way, but that shot from the asphalt with sparks flying everywhere was epic! She got the shot that marks her comeback as a competitive player and that's what matters.

Overall, I am thrilled with this episode. It was full of excitement and emotion you typically don't associate with golf as an occasional spectator :D Well done everyone who worked on it! Can't wait for the season finale!

Another straightforward but simply great sports anime episode.

Tonbo actually won the competition, I actually didn't expect that,
but had thought that if she were to win, it would be because Hinoki
confessed to cheating. So I guess I called that development.

Very excited by the potential prospect of a third season being announced.

I am unsure about the end of this competition, the way they had everyone miss their last shots, it feels a little forced.

Would it have been better to have her runner up or win well, possibly.

It is good they had the girl confess though.
Note: I don’t lazily watch 3-5 episodes, biasedly compare to other anime, or unfairly judge by surface level similarities. With every anime I start, I watch the entire series, both Japanese Sub & English Dub, then judge each anime based on what they present, to give an honest and fair rating.

Yeah that what I been thinking since when the second season started the 1st episode was the recap of the 1st season

Kinda anti-climatic win tbh I felt bad for Hinoki but she had to say about the cheating and she didn't get sanctioned so it's all good I guess.

Tonbo finishing the course 1 under par, now it's time to see how the other girls will wrap their own business up.

Tsubura only need 2 strokes to finish the top, but the Great One Pattern that she tried to execute, didn't end up happening. Ema being off the track, but still persisting to hit her ball off the asphalt towards the green, that's as good as she can go, Hinoki trying her best too, and making it onto the green, it's all on the putt for each of the 3 girls to make it or break it.

Ema making up for the mistake that caused Tsubura to miss her shot, it was a valiant effort from her with even par. Next is Tsubura, tryng to find Tonbo's line, but yet also missing by a hair, and while Hinoki made it to the same score, the karma getting back to her in one of the previous holes by owning up to her fault, means that the newbie has finally won her first-ever competition. At least for Hinoki, her father acknowledging that he's being too harsh on her, and the steal on the stroke to be able to level with Tonbo and the others certainly was a mistake on her part, but at the very least, the friendship will go on.

It certainly is a season finale, but the finale episode being more of a season recap (same as Episode 1), will this show have a Season 3 incoming? There's a lot of manga content to adapt, so that's a possibility.

This episode was fantastic. I thought for sure they were going to go the obvious route and have Tonbo play great her first tournament, but lose a close one at the end. I was super happy to see her actually win. I was glad Hinoki confessed to cheating, but let's be honest, Tonbo was beating her in that playoff anyway! :)

An excellent conclusion to the series. I assume the final episode is just going to be some sort of epilogue/bridge to a potential continuation.
