Ah it's always amusing to see Kirie support Ebina for her crush towards Umaru's bro.

I kinda like the focus on Kirie this episode. If she follows her dreams, I think she can make it big. In regards to Hikari, I think her relationship with Umaru could try and improve more although they really feel like foils of each other.

Lots of Kirie-chan this episode, so that's always good.

The Hikari moments were so adorable! D'awww...

The preview... the part where Sylphy says that time flies by so quickly that it felt like only three months made me lol'd!

Thanks, person who gave me this on another site a long time ago, lol.

Really adorable episode again.

Love the master student relationship between Kirie and Umaru, kinda touching how much the former cherishes her master.

Also little Hikari is just :3 her and Umarus dive,tho xD

Next week already the final, super sad about that :(

Yeah, hopefully they give us something like a confession from Ebina as a send off. They might not be planning to make a season 3 so hopefully things are wrapped up in the finale. Either that or in an OVA

The first half with the skating and Kirie and Bomber moments were good, but I absolutely LOVED the second half! It was nice to see Kirie confide in Taihei and oh my god, the flashback to high school aged Taihei and Kanau was PURE GOLD! Taihei please let me join your sister harem T_T SO cute to see Kanau do all those things for him lol, and I guess that's how Hikari got attached to him too huh :P Plus jealous Umaru fighting over Taihei with her is always funny too. Can't believe next week is the last episode already ... I'm gonna miss this show :(

It's been really a long time for me to feel sadness when an anime is about to end. This anime has been really enjoyable for me and lifted up all the stresses that piled in my life.

Kirie got so much screentime this season which is a good thing since we barely saw any development on her character last season. The fight between Hikari and Umaru is really adorable, how they would fight over Taihei's attention and creating those special move "dives" and hanging around his body lol

I just hope that if there's a possibility of a season 3, I would be glad if we can see Kanau more often since she's an interesting character and had long liked Taihei ever since their teenage life.

Another great episode.

Umaru's cuteness is a cure and Kirie is just great.

Hikari really likes Taihei as an older brother. That hug... she's so adorable :3

Glad that Kirie told Taihei about her dream of becoming a storybook author. I'm sure she'll do well in the future.

On the other hand, it's nice that they all skated together. It didn't quite precisely go with what Kirie have planned but still Ebina and Taihei held their hands together :P.

Amusing as always to see Hikari and Umaru battle for Taihei. I'm glad that Taihei finally remembered that he taught Hikari about constellations during his visit. Lol on the cooking part of Hikari's sister. Pretty much both Hikari and Umaru will end up being friends although there is a little bit sense of rivalry hehe.

Kirie was so shy and cute in this episode! I liked how she didn't want to talk about her dreams to Taihei, but she eventually opened up. Her interactions with Bomber were hilarious!
Ebina was adorable again. Too bad she couldn't get closer to Taihei in this episode despite even with Kirie's help. lol
Hikari's flashback was lovely. She's really grown on me and her round white eyes when she's nervous are both cute and funny.
Too bad there's only one episode left. I already want S3 to happen!

I was reminded of how I was like Taihei when I was still in college, always planning where and what to do but I was way ahead always. Like where to eat during breaks, how much time it would take to walk there, eat, then walk back to my next class that kind of thing.

As things are coming to an end, it seems that this episode prepares the ground for a grand finale.

Kirie and Bomber found out that they are both friends with Umaru's cute version (a.k.a. Komaru), and Kirie also revealed to Taihei that she wants to become a children's books writer, something that she was encouraged to do by Taihei in a really wholesome scene.

Besides, Taihei and Ebina seem to be closer than ever, thanks in part to Kirie's efforts to make Ebina bolder towards Taihei (which leads to comical situations as well).

As if all that wasn't enough, we got to see a little more of Hikari's childhood story with Taihei, whom she considers a brother, and Umaru's "rivalry" with her. Both Umaru and Hikari are so cute! I would have liked seeing a little more of Kanau, though; she's got little screen time.

In conclusion, this was such a complete episode, and I think the finale might be even better (if that's even possible).

"A master of what?" A master slackster, that is. And not even in a bad way, she knows how to loaf around in an effective manner. And I know the Motoba siblings don't know Komaru is Umaru. But you could say she's a master of academics, gaming, and disguises as well.

I was going to say why won't Taihei just use an umbrella but he carries a lot of groceries.

I don't think Umaru should be possessive of Taihei. It's not like he'd start preferring Hikari. Although I can see why she doesn't like Hikari. Still, she isn't possessive of Taihei towards her other friends.

Kirie and Bomber in Umaru's house, Kirie being honest and confessing her dream. I wanted to see more about the ice skating segment, was very short but was compensated with more Hikari screentime and a lot of lore about her, so thats why she loves Taihei so much. Only the last episode and the last ova left, I will miss this show, especially this season was so good.
