Glad that Sugar (The Principal) and Himeka (Lala's Mother) were able to meet again and clear up all the misunderstandings. Funny how what the Principal was doing was the same thing that happened to Lala's mother and that's why she couldn't meet her that day. Funny moment how they both said that they didn't change that much in Pri Para and that they only emphasized their strong points. Smart of the girls to team up so that they could all get the Paradise shoes. Good episode would've loved it if it was subbed on Christmas. But at least its getting subbed

Finally, the Principal's problem is now resolved and lift the PriPara ban and gave back the confiscated tickets.

Lala's classmate's reaction to her PriPara form were hilarious.

I like them as a group of 6, I actually think it suits them :)

Other than that... I am not sure I had a ticket for the feels train for this one. That was so damn sad with Himeko and Sugar!

However I am happy that we got to know the reason behind the ban. It was more or less as expected from the clues we were given, but it was so great seeing the two of them in the crowd :D

I felt that so hard. They couldn't meet because of the same thing Gloria is doing. And so closes an amazing character arc. I already knew PriPara was great, but when I got to this episode I knew it was something special.
Also SoLaMi Dressing's song is awesome.

Satisfying and a very and touching conclusion to the Gloria arc. I teared up when she and and Himeka hugged each other.

SoLaMi♡Dressing's Christmas themed performance was fantastic! I liked the song, Realize!

Alright PriPara, you win. After having it on-hold for nearly eight years, I'm finally feeling a fresh wind. I like how the reconciliation between Sugar & Himeka played out, bringing the Pri ban's effects full circle and hitting it home to the headmistress's heart. Seeing her in the crowd fangirling it out was actually pretty cute.

The Christmas performance was so feel good. There was a catchy euphoria that came with watching both groups team up and share the spotlight together.

Best episode so far. I mean, I guess Laala's mum Himeka didn't betray Ookanda after all. They just had no idea how each other looked like outside PriPara, and therefore didn't realise they were there all along. But while one of them is checking inside PriPara, the other would be outside at the same time looking for them, and both of them never were inside PriPara at the same time. And that was only on that day, because the next day, Himeka's principal unfortunately banned PriPara, which is just the worst possible thing to happen for them. Just ruined Ookanda's (Sugar)'s youth when Himeka suddenly disappeared from her life, making her go from loving PriPara to hating it for the next 20 years, and hating friendship in general because she thought she was betrayed by a friend, when in fact she wasn't. Had they known how each other looked like in the outside world that day, Himeka could've explained to Ookanda (Sugar) the next day that her principal had banned students from going to PriPara and that she would no longer be able to attend.

Well, it's nice that they reunited after all these years and understand what happened back then and they're friends again. Ookanda could've easily, for the rest of her life, thought that she was betrayed etc. And now, she doesn't hate PriPara anymore, thankfully, and PriPara is no longer banned at the school and everyone is given back their tickets. And Himeka, apparently for the next 20 years, after graduating from that school, would go to and wait at PriPara, hoping to meet Sugar again there one day (despite not knowing how she looked like in the outside world, though Ookanda has eaten at her restaurant), which she did. But yeah, Himeka never gave up on hoping to meet Sugar again, and probably would've done that for the rest of her life because that's how important Sugar was to her. And while Himeka was doing that for 20 years, Ookanda/Sugar had long given up on that and never went near PriPara (because she hated PriPara) for the next 20 years until now.

Man, I can't believe I dropped this for whatever reason after the first episode, 8 years ago. Glad I picked it up again, but I should've just kept watching it back then since I like CGDCT shows, with this one focusing on friendship. And I like that this show is over 100 episodes long.
