Alright episode and had a decent amount of humor... but overall rather cliched. At least the emotions were really cliched but that's alright since it is delivered fairly well.

Aw, only one episode left. Pretty ok episode. :) As some already said, a bit clichéd.. after all, they're still boys.
I'm really glad they decided to follow the manga so closely, probably because it already had finished. On the other hand, I wish the manga was somewhat longer..

The end of this episode was LOL. I think they got chased by dogs in the manga. The anime went with boars, hilarious.

I hope that wasn't the last they're showing of Yuuji and Misaki!!

Why would Enamoto do anything for Kappa face, I mean she shouldn't.
... I think every single post I make about this show has my negative view on the two.
I just hate him so much... dumb kappa face

great episode for an otherwise lackluster show. I'm looking forward to an episode for the first time.

Enamoto and Kusada are this show's saving grace. Everybody else has been a flat-out disappointment, especially the endless cycles of rejection. It gets old real fast. Hopefully Enomoto and Kusada get together (preferrably with some kind of kiss). If they don't I'll consider this series to be a total failure.

this was totally awesome, this is what you get when you go on a trip unorganized xD
just want to get out as soon as possible and dont care about stuffs like foods or where to go^^ it totally reminds of me xD and then after a while you are just pissed about the hole situation and yourself. now one tries to find every little stupid thing to argue about. man this was a really nice ep^^
lol and the end just made me laughed , chased by boars xD

now looking for the big final^^

This was a fun episode. I like how the guys decided spur of the moment to go on their journey, and how they didn't plan it out at all. Typical, but hilarious nonetheless. The ending really made it with the guy's being chased by boars. That's what they get for trying to order boar soup!

I really feel for Misao though. It's gotta be rough on the guy waiting for an answer from Ayumi. I guess we'll finally get to see who she picks next episode.

Yeah, I feel bad for him too. At least he was able to give Enomoto some good advice based on his own experience and that Arihara was able to hear him express it.

And poor Misaki.. what a fool Arihara is for just leaving here there. FOOL!

Unless they decide to change something...

The anime surpiresed me. I didn't think tey would be able to, but they adapted almost all of the love stories. The only one missing is the guy that draws manga and likes Kei's sister. They also cut Nao's brother, but he didn't have any real part in the mana anyway.

I do'nt see where people see these cyles of rejection in the anime. I mean, apart from the tow that liked Yamamoto nobody was rejected yet. Well Koyoi, but her affection was shown to be platonic from the start.

Unfortunately the manga wasn't succesful enough to continue and ended soon. I bet Kawashita could tell a lot of stories with those characters.

A decent episode, but I still enjoyed it :3

I think I like the very end the best. When they showed Kei as she yells out Kusuda's name, it was animated really well...it was just so pretty~!! I also liked how they panned the shot onto the guys.

It's even better because there's like this really pretty and touching thing going on amongst a mass of chaos because all of the characters are shouting out incoherent things XD! Completely hilarious how everyone was just shouting out all at once hahahaha~

I'm interested to see an actual ending with Misaki's story. I like there is a veeeery small hint between Bessho and Misaki in this episode...that or it's just my wishful thinking XD. I think Misaki's ending was one of the things I skipped in the manga :P

I think people just seem to hate it when everything doesn't go perfect in the romance in an anime. I'm sick of cliche crap, and thats why i love this series. I say it every week, but the romance feels so natural, everything doesn't go perfectly in life. It really captures that.

I really enjoyed this episode, it started a bit slow for me but the second half really was great. Some of the emotions were caught really well, and now we have a build up for the final episode. I can't freaking wait.

I'm really getting tired of this whole Kei x Kusuda story. We know how it's gonna end. It's one of the most obvious and boring (in my opinion) pairings in the whole anime. I'll never understand why people keep saying that so and so episode needed MORE Kei x Kusuda. It needed less, actually.

I really hope things work out for Misaki and Yuuji. Their story is the best imo and most entertaining. And I'm looking forward to seeing who Ayumi chooses out of the two brothers although I'm pretty sure who it's gonna be.

I disagree. I think I'm getting more and more into the Kei x Kusuda story, because I can see the characters changing from how they were at the beginning of the anime. I get to take a journey with them as they realize how it is to fall in love and learn how to communicate with the person they love. Kusuda especially in this episode likes Kei so much that he wants to change (ie: stop running away from hardships) for her! That's a big deal. I know when I've liked people in the past, they've inspired me to better myself, and even if they ended up not liking me back, I grew as person. Maybe it's just me that sees myself in them...

And it just adds to what i'm saying. With the number of people and cross-overs in the romance there's bound to be someone who doesn't end perfectly. Even if they aint exactly 'rejected'. I'm just sick of people complaining cause it aint the same old cliche perfect crap.

@aranecharis. I agree, the Kei x Kusada story is my favourite part of this series. And i'm glad it's the main romance story because it has been done so well. Like i have been saying, this series really captures some natural things, like how you can see them in yourself.

I really like most of the characters in this show, except Zaitsu the Younger (does he have a first name?). I don't know but he really comes off as immature and selfish to me. Ah well, his brother more than makes up for it.

I've actually come around and wouldn't mind seeing Yamamoto with Bessho-kun although I do kinda hope that Arihara warms up to her. He treated her pretty coldly in this episode. You have to treat women better than that!

But Koyoi is still my favorite!! <3

The last 30 seconds or so did it for me. Having the boys being chased by a pack of wild boars while Ayumu is trying to keep Kei from jumping off the train was too too funny. Going on a multi-day journey with a box of candy bars, 20k yen and a smelly old pillow....nice.

Great episode and a very solid series overall. Can't wait for the finale.

Qft. I actually enjoyed this episode quite a bit. The last 30 seconds made my day.

I really want to see what happens with Yamamoto though. >.>

I feel bad for Misaki since she is aware of that Yuuji is not interested in her. I don’t read the manga yet, but that anime is not bad. I hope Kei will confess to Kusada in the final episode. The end in this episode is hilarious. I can’t believe that next episode is final episode, and I personally hope that manga is longer.

Dude, this anime cannot end well. I think they should have taken their time and fleshed out older Zaitsu brother and stuff. There's no reason why this show isn't longer. Oh, well one more episode.

Pretty funny episode though. It's really getting in depth on how actual relationships work. I'm more of a younger Zaitsu character myself. You fall for girls too quickly without realizing they're in a relationship with someone else already.
