Finally subbed.
The op was so epic, the episode was worth watching just because of it!
I loved all the cosplaying and bikini-ing and Ponyo-ing around...but...

What did Oora's sign say? ___ panties...new? I couldn't really see.

Gotta love Chiri's translations, totally shipping her with Nozomu now.
Hopefully this isn't the end, but if it is, the series will live on in my heart. *sniffles*

I can't believe I'm going to say this, but these last two OVA's were really a let-down for me. This might have just been a case of completely sucking it dry.. it has become too stale. The only things I really enjoyed this episode were the, as always, over-the-top extended OP and the ED.
The messages inbetween the scenes weren't all too promising. Are they indeed expecting to 'cancel' this show? They 'criticised' their small staff, bad organization skills and even announced flat-out that the sales weren't that great.. but the audience wants nothing more than a 4th season. And apparantly even Hiroshi made a 'sneer' at them.

If they quit here, it would be fine. They should get all their stuff together first, before even considering a sequel.

Overall 6/10. Lowest score I've given to the SZS adaptations.

EDIT: To all the fans who've made it this far, you shouldn't hesitate but buy the manga from Del Rey. It's worth it!

Much better than the first episode. Extended opening was awesome and the jokes were actually funny. It's a shame that SZS has to be so inconsistent.

Overall, Bangaichi scores a strong 7/10 from me.

Wasn't expecting a full version of the OP. If i didn't like the song, or if it didn't have new art, i would of been upset XD
Concepts were harder to grasp this episode (maybe because it is late). The washing away one didn't grow on me, but i thought the others stayed true and did good for the show.
A lot a references that were very very visible this time around. ^.^
One thing that i love about SZS is that i end up processing the next two or three days through these ideals (if i want to or not).

In my opinion, this episode totally makes up for the overly disappointing episode 1.

Raised series score from a 6 to a 9.

Loved this ep.

I loved all the jokes in this episode. However, this was one where you really had to pause and read all the information on the screen or you'd miss out stuff like that futuristic timeline where the JSDF actually becomes a military force and then World War III and America's unemployment reaches 28%, just really really funny stuff.

I'd say those who are going to enjoy this episode are those who are patient enough to pause the screen to read all the sight gags and copious text.

Also, SHAFT really knows how to appeal to their audience


They repeated many times that A new semester is starting soon. I really hope that is a not so subtle hint for the fourth season and that the whole history of SZS during the OP and the apologies throughout don't mean that the franchise is done with.

The full version of the OP has falling girls, apple heads and crazier art than before... that's why I love SHAFT.

I find the last segment funniest. Chiri misinterpreting Sensei's words as a marriage proposal was hilarious.

I don't know what some of you were smoking, both of these episodes were great, SZS in top form. Then again, I'm a huge Chiri fan so maybe I'm not being very objective, she just always cracks me up; seeing her hot older sister was fantastic.

I wouldn't be hugely surprised if we got a 4th season but even if we don't, I think we have enough stuff to rewatch.

I enjoyed this episode quite a bit. Don't remember too much of the first one though.

Some personal highlights:
-The "thank yous" during the OP.
-Abiru's sign read "Ayanami."
-Ookasa finally got a proper skit.
-For some reason I can't quite explain, I really liked the end of the second part, the whole "a new semester's starting" thing at the bars.
-Lucky Star season 2 in like 2012 or something. I lol'd.

I don't think I would be too crushed if this is the end for Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei, but if there ever is a new series, I'd watch it.
Ha-cha!

I agree. This second OVA episode was hilarious : D Although I didn't find the first one to be "dissapointing"; but, definitely, the second episode was better.

Man, every time I think Shaft cant possibly make the opening any more crazy, they just keep raising the bar to new heights.

Anyway, they gave a lot of nods during the episode that this will be the last anime adaptation. Personally, Im always up for another sanity testing season of SZS, but whatever they decide to do Im sure it will be the right one.

BEST OP YET. They shoulda just gone ahead and done the entire song. Seriously.

But anyway, I really hope this isn't the last season.... Like, maybe they could benefit from taking a break for a couple years (and do a sequel to Maria+Holic instead, how 'bout that?) but don't totally end it, you know? They still haven't animated the 'dark stew' chapter (all the way back in volume three) and, like, other stuff.

Same here. Although, I'm happy as long as Shaft is adapting something/anything in general. xD
But if this OVA does happen to be the last of the SZS series, it was definitely a great way to end it.

A great episode to finish of the (current) last episode! OP sequance changed and was extended so that gave it also a nice effect to it! the art used in this episode was also quite nice combined with the animation seems they've really put some more work into this episode!

The cosplay to the random humor again, finishing hat off with some classic Zetsubou Sensai stuff made it really great! The Zombie theme sure was a bit unexpected but sure was a nice attribution to it! The extra fanservice and references is also always pretty nice!

The whole episode was great and was nice to finish it currently off! I do wonder if there ever will be another season now that the manga finished publishing! If so I'd love to see it!

I didn't like the intro recap. I don't remember them having those in the other series. At least it wasn't that long and this didn't seem to be that funny. The second episode was definitely better than the first.
