Nah I'm good dude, I can see how Harem ending would be cool. And I'd be fine with that. Also I thought between the way I wrote my words and the memes and stuff, that you'd see it was just a light-hearted statement made in jest. I do forget tone and intent is hard to show in text format....so my apologies for any offense I caused you. —— Hey no worries man, it must’ve just been a misunderstanding and I’m glad you weren’t trying to do anything harsh on purpose. We are both fans of the anime and that’s that; so my apologies to you as well if I came off too stuck-up. :) |

asapabri said: You need 30 to pass a class...150/500 is the most lowest you can possibly get and still pass Even so that just means they passed the "final exam" though right? What happened to the entire year they've been flunking? Like I said, if you compute their average grade for the "entire school year" then that's a fail. You know unless in Japan you can flunk the entire year and just "pass the final exam" and still be able to move up a grade which is well... a very bad system if you ask me. |
 |
| Glad all the girls have passed the exams, but I didn't think that Ichika would be the best. Anyway, we had more Yotsuba in this episode and I'm happy with it. I'm waiting for more Nino in the next episode, though. |
 |
| Congratulations to all the girls. Finally, they all passed the final exams. All of the best things in this episode is Miku. She is sooooo cute. Just watching Miku blushing all over the entire episdoe is enough. |

 It's not an anime, without a beach episode. - William Shakespeare |
| Loved the episode. Their mother was beautiful just like them. Again, everyone did their best in the exams, and everyone passed. Looks like Ichika scored the highest. Also, Miku and Ichika are competing for Uesugi, seems that way. But, great episode. |
 |
| Everyone got some screen time in this episode. Miku was really cute, it's sad how she told Ichika that she's going to confess when she gets the highest score but Ichika ended up being the first. Nino passed the exam, as expected from the best girl. |

| Congratulations to all the girls, passing their exams. Looking at the end, it looks like its Nino turn to shine. I wonder why she did not turn up and only passing her exam results. |
 "Don't give up after failing just twice. We'll be able to do it next time. Failure is the stepping stone to success." |
| Interesting. I might be misremembering, but I swear this reveal of the exact circumstances behind the girls' failure and transfer to Uesugi's school didn't come until right near the end of the manga. If I am remembering right, it's a very interesting and probably quite wise decision to move that here and give Yotsuba both more focus and more significance as a character, when up to this point in the anime she's almost been a non-entity compared to the other Quints. EDIT: Nope, that backstory did come here rather than later, so I must be conflating it with something else entirely. That aside, while the pacing certainly suffers for it, mixing the 5 pre-exam chapters together was an astute decision, as pacing all 5 like the manga would've gone to the other extreme and slowed things down to an absolute crawl. The school's grading system is definitely much too lenient to let them earn passing grades below 50, but that keeps the plot going I suppose. As does Ichika getting the highest exam score, just to stall Miku's confession and keep the plot going. And now we approach the point where one of Negi's most egregious writing flaws begins to emerge, in terms of how he handles Ichika's character for the rest of the season. I can see her being less popular than Nino for anime-onlies once the dust settles. |

SogiitaGunha said: TheColonel76 said: Funny you say this, although Ichika isn’t quite my best girl (it’s still Miku as of now lol) she’s a very close 2nd, but I’ve heard about this thing with Ichika and I’ve always said I’ll find a way to defend her lol. The TL;DR version is that the author admittedly didn't prepare for the event to happen, he only thought it out along the way and the contradictions, nonsenses just show tragically. With fast pacing in the anime, it's even worse. Understandable, but I’m still gonna try lol. |
| Next episode will be interest as it will be . Regardless, all of them are best girls for me. |
 |
| Wow what a smug look of ichika (240).... ^o^ |
“ If there was no one else within a 5-kilometer radius from Shimamura, and she was in a deep sleep and an all-knowing deity just happened to reassure me that she wasn’t going to wake up the next 24 hours, maybe I’d get bored after 23 hours and I might kiss her once to relieve some boredom... ” |
| Ichika is just too good! :O she even has to work as well, wow |
 |
| Great episode as usual only thing I really dislike about the Manga being done and reading some spoilers. |
| Holy shit, this adaptation is going much faster than I was expecting. I can't wait for next episode! Chapters 59 & 60 are almost upon us, Kyaaaaaaa!!! *excited fangirl noises* #NinoGang |

No worries man, I completely saw where what I wrote could be confused with me acting like a dick. Yeah the 4.0 flex was hitting below the belt! Nah jk, we all good. Anime fans shouldn't fight. Yeah I had some douchebaguette a couple days ago come at me for something I wrote so we had to verbally throw hands. So I know how some people are just looking to troll. |

Another episode of glorious Miku expressions. Although Ichika is also putting up a damn good fight, even beating Miku in her own game. Good for her.  It was nice to see that Yotsuba finally succeeded in studies and found something that she excels in. |
| Damn, this was by long shot the best episode so far, enjoyed every second of it. Also really happy for all of them that they passed and can finally move on. |
| Best episode so far, the girls managed to all pass the exam which is fairly good development considering the first episode where they were scatter all over the place like Pokémon creatures. Also, their mother died on August 14. Rest in peace. |

| All the manga readers be waiting for the motorcycle scene. It's coming |

| I think they did a pretty good job condensing the last exam arc in a single episode, it might feel fast as fuck but it was still a fantastic episode. We Re: Zero now bois, who needs an OP and an ED. Let's fucking go, next episode finna make me nut lmao. My most favorite moment in the manga will come next episode. Give me episode 7 now please. |

| wholesome ass episode, as we nearer to valentines day, this episode felt very appropriate for the occasion with the amount of chocolate Uesugi was fed, but also the ever nearing exam date. Finally given a proper look at the quintuplets mother and, yeh understandable. You can definitely pick out some similarities from their mother ngl, but the whole family's been animated which is a nice plus. Nino and Miku's interactions with each other, have quickly become a personal favourite, although they can be rowdy with one another and are almost complete opposites in terms of hobbies and interests, when they find something they can both work on, it turns out well and extremely cute. Ichika coming in hot this episode, they are really fuelling the flames for her ship these past few episodes. Not that i'm complaining, she is definitely best girl in her own way, and i quite liked her screen time this episode, her being big sister to the other girls, then her getting big feels when with Uesugi. Yotsuba getting the motivation she needs was great, poor girl trying her best to keep up with the rest of the girls but she feels like she's dead weight. Uesugi's reassurance and idea of each girl teaching the other on subjects that they're dominant at was a good idea. Underneath all that heart-warming joy, was the inevitable prep and arrival of finals, which ngl gave me more first hand PTSD then i want to admit. Luckily all the girls made it through, with Ichicka topping them all and giving Miku a run for her money. The after party is definitely due, but ah yes, Nino the almost lone wolf of the pack going her own way, but surely she would of thought that a specific someone would go to retrieve her? |
 "yabe." |
| Why do I have the feeling that Ichika will backstab some of her sisters in order to win Fuutarou over? Honestly hope she isn't the "all's fair in love and war" kind of girl. Well, of course they would pass the exams. Still curious how those scores qualify as passing ones tho. Like "how permissive their school actually is?" And yeah, of course Ichika would get the highest score so that Miku's confession won't happen in the meantime. Guess this settles the war between sisters as official. |
| And after all the fanservice, sweet moments, and an inspirational scene, ALL THE GIRLS HAD PASSED THE TEST. And in a surprise moment, Ichika beats Miku in the quintuplets, proving that Ichika is serious about their fight for Futaro. Nino though is absent, and so our boi is going to look for her (again). "You're number one", damn Miku thought that she's going to be THE ONE in Futaro's eyes. But he said that to her because she's always number one out of the five. Not gonna lie they got us in the first half. |
 |
| oh nice! the five girls all passed! i wonder how Ichika & Miku will tell about how they feel to Uesugi... 4/5. |
 |
| I'm willing to bet that Ichika would be into a bit of assplay, Nino too. |
私のホバークラフトはウナギでいっぱいです。 |
| It's a fact that teaching something is actually one of the most effective ways of learning and it looks like it worked for the Nakano sisters! Judging by Ichika's grade I guess she's seriously challenging Miku for Futaro... things are gonna get tenser and tenser as the girls realize their feelings for him! |
 |
| No OP or ED this episode, huh. Things are getting serious. |
| Can't believe it finally happened, they passed! And in the best way ever, with them teaching also each other. Miku is indeed stepping beyond for Futarou, especially when compared to other girls, but Ichika isn't giving up 240! checkmate xD Now that the studying problem is gone, i guess it's time for the final arc, even tho i have my favorites it still feels sad that only one of them will get them, idk how this family will survive xD I see this going 2 ways, they live together and they all are "married" to him, thus the harem late ending or one of them will stop seeing her other sisters so that they won't feel bad for Fuutarou not choosing them xD |
"There is no such thing as an Anime elitist. You watch Anime, therefore, you are trash by society's standards." |
| I hate how they're pretty much rushing through the material, man. Taking all the impact out of the scenes. Season 1 may have seemed thrown together but it at least did a lot of the heavy scenes justice in a way. Sad part is I've been looking forward to seeing 59 animated for a minute, but if the second season so far is any indicator I have a bad feeling about it. |
 |
| So the anime ends now right? lolz i guess now all that left is drama in the anus. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| Funny how this episode came out very close to valentine day overall good episode |
I cant believe I’m already caught up. Pain.... guess I’ll read the manga  |
| I loved the Menacing lol, another Jojo Reference Damn Nakano Mom 😍 Unfortunately Miku didn't get the highest score... But still Best Girl Miku |
