episode 12 felt more of a finale imo while this felt like a special episode, but I loved this series as a whole! Mei and Yamato were such a cute pairing; I was either fangirling, laughing or crying with their romance. :') The only problem I had was in the middle mark of the show, during that arc with Yamato hanging more with Megumi because of the photo shoot and Mei felt like he was drifting away, I hated how he was ignorant to her feelings. :/ I know he can't exactly help being too nice to say no, but I still wished he made an effort to tell Mei what's going on in his life and all that.

I personally liked the misunderstandings aspect of this show (aside from the situation with Megumi cause that frustrated me lmao) cause the emotional impact hit more, aka me crying at three in the morning. :( oh, and another thing I really liked was how, in the beginning, Aiko seemed more of an antagonist but she ended up being an ally in the end. of course, I can't forget Kai. I loved him so much. I had a little bit of second lead syndrome...just a little. <3

Episode 13 was pretty underwhelming for a series finale. If the writers made the previous episode with the intention of making it the finale, I personally believe it would have been a more fulfilling ending!

it didn't need this episode. It would've been just fine ending it on ep 12 and adding the "I love you" there instead. hated ep 13, it was useless

Apple must have hated episode 13 too as they stop to selling series at episode 12. Plus no season bulk purchase option. What is going on?

I loved this season so much but ending it all with that episode was terrible! It was a great episode! One of the first ones where the entire thing was light and comedic, I laughed a lot for the first half, but as it dawned on me that time was running out in the episode for a sincere conclusion, I got worried. Then by the end, it was just an uneventful hug. I get that they kissed on the bridge and she said, "I love you." In the credits, but that was one of the worst ways to do it! You don't get to see her emotional build up to saying it, you don't get to see Yamato's reaction, there is no climax of romance, just a fluffy episode with little plot relevance. Again, I loved the episode, but for a LAST episode, that sucked. Sorry for being so pessimistic, but I'm sure the manga will be awesome so I'll read that next!!!

This is after watching all 13 episodes and the 1 OVA episode of Say I Love You:

Out of all the serious animes that have come out of a shoujo manga, I think "Say I Love You" might be the best one. 

Usually when I enjoy animes that come out of a Shoujo manga, I usually enjoy the silly shoujo animes, for example Wolf Girl and Black Prince, Maid-Sama, Kimi Ni Todoke, My Love Story, Save Me Lollipop, etc.

So when an anime comes out of shoujo-manga, and im supposed to take the anime serious, I usually get bored or its just too corny/cheesy for my taste to enjoy that I just drop it and move on.  Or the pacing is too slow for my taste, or the anime is too bland. But this is not the case with Say I Love You.

Say I Love You has a great atmosphere, appealing characters, nice interactions, good progress, nice pace, interesting love rivals for each MC.  Say I Love You also has two good MC to follow around, you dont get bored or anything.

I mean, yes, it does have some Shoujo things that I dont like, like feminine looking guys, guys with stupid-looking haircuts/hairstyles, but overall it grows on you. It also has the thing I dont like in which the main characters is what every side character or NPC character is worried about, like if they dont got lives of their own. And the over-the-top gossiping that makes everyone look like a jerk.  And every now and then, the anime can get a bit bland/boring, but not enough to drop it.

With all that said, as of the date of this review, Say I Love You might be the best non-comedy anime to come out of a shoujo manga.

I watch shoujo series from time to time and also think this was the around the best in the genre... and yet I also feel it was pretty bland opposite of your comment. Seeing it was released in 2012, makes me sadder because there could be even better series 10 years later.

What can I say? Frustrating, infuriating series overall. The only saving grace was Kai. Straightforwardly pinpointing all the bullshyt every character in this show was doing. Egos fat as an elephant. 4/10 from me.

I HATED THIS EPISODE SO MUCH i rated this show a 10 because i loved it so much up until this last episode. This episode was one of the most frustrating things ive ever watched in my life and im so annoyed that they had to end such a good show with this bs fever plot. Idc if people think its charming i think its so stupid and literally anything else would've been better than this. I wish i could go back and just skip this last episode bc then itd be a perfect show

Interesting and difficult relationship themes, not as silly as most romcoms

Episode 12 felt like the true climax/ending and that Episode 13 is the denouement/comedy special - which by the way felt like a prototype Kaguya-sama episode sans the narrator.

Awesome show and it scratched the itch of what I felt was missing in the likes of Nagi no Asukara, Bunny Girl Senpai, and Toradora. After some deliberation, I'll give this a 10/10 even if episode 13 felt somewhat disjointed. It hooked me right at the first episode, the OP is absolutely gorgeous, and the portrayal of Mei and Yamato's dynamic, development, and how it focused on their lives after they got together is overall very strong.
