| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Mm, this episode was interesting especially focusing on Mio and the others with their ongoing lives. Exam time also came around for school. I find it interesting at how realistic they made that exam session - the amount of vivid details, backgrounds, movements, etc. Of course, Eita still had thoughts about his friends while all this is going on. One more episode to go... |
 |
| So the built up for next week is done now the question is how will things turn out. Judging from the reactions of the characters the results are clear but now the thing that maters most is what will happen with their relationships. It looks like Izumi will be walking away with one of the girls the question is who. As for Morikawa the way she strikes me is the type of person who is pretty indecisive but she will probably get a boyfriend pretty fast ones she enters university. Souma on the other hand not to sure about him as it looks now he will be single at the end of the anime but we will have to wait and see. |
| Not so bad... yet. It would be good to know if Eita's recommendation is still valid though. Also Haruto knew everything right after they took the exam and (apparently) didn't tell anyone, what a nice pal to have. |
| The whole "I'll confess if I can do this other thing" is kinda annoying but luckily they did pass. |
| I really wonder if, in the japanese system, when you get your 1st choice, all your others are nulled (like Eita's recommandation into Joei...)... It would be such a sad and weird ending if, after all this, they just switched Universities because they wanted to be secretive... :/ |
 |
| Looks like everyone passed their exams. Congrats to them. Izumi doesn't know Natsume changed her application. One more episode left. I'm curious how it's going to end. |
 |
| Eita's little smirk, i honestly don't know how to interpret it. Could go either way with that. Both Natsume and Komiya got their wishes. It's gonna be an interesting finale, i'm somewhat sure that if Eita actually got in, he will change opinion and take the recommendation for Joei for Natsume. Komiya might just take the loss and not stay in Eita/Natsume's way. |
| The final episode will be really interesting. Cant wait for it. |
 i like avocados on toast |
Yasu said: To be completely honest, I think Eita failed. I'm usually really sharp on reading facial expressions and I'm putting my money on the fact that he failed. I honestly he hoped he failed tbh. |
| Watch Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha, you wont be disappointed. http://q.pokefarm.org/user/Uran10 Check out My Youtube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCEz0PrV3Vh-ksW0mzOWnnSQ  |
| Next episode's gonna be confession time! At least someone's gonna get heartbroken. And I know who would that be. Cannot say I will be overjoyed or too sad about the outcomes. I liked Tsuki ga Kirei way better and still think it was THE standout romance anime of the year with Net-juu no Susume a close second. |

| This whole anxiety about entrance exams, that takes me back. I shudder by even thinking about it :/ |
| Sorry, due to licensing limitations, this signature is unavailable in your region. |
| Very obvious how it's going to end even if they end up going to different schools. Izumi will reject Komiya for sure as he's still into Natsume and he's taking the exam for her supposedly first choice to be with her. Komiya has no chance whatsoever and she knows that. Sad as I like Komiya more but we should all expect this outcome in such series. Maybe Haruto will end up with Yoriko eventually? Remember when Hazuki asked Yoriko if there is someone she likes and she didn't deny it? What if it's Haruto but she keeps it to herself because she knows of his feelings for Hazuki. We'll just wait and see. Izumi/Natsume will happen. I don't see any other outcome. |
| i've said this on another episode and i'll say it again here....oh boy |
| Welp the big finale is next week is coming soon, and I wonder who will end up with who O.o |
 Three things cannot be long hidden.. ...the s u n, the m oo n, and the tr u th. |
| 1 more episode to go! I wonder how will they end this story. Also I don't think that Eta x Natsumi is 100% conform because anythings can happen like in school days.... hahaha |

| Have a feeling that Eita failed, so Mio and Eita are probably going to both end up at Joei. |
    バカ I'm not smart, I just wear glasses "Anime is just Japanese Cartoons, Cartoons are just Western Anime" ☁ н є ѕ ι т α т ι σ и ☁ |
| Eita's smile (the one after seeing his result) really did look like a "Well, damn, I failed." |
 |
| Studying looks so painful, good thing I passed all my sht with minimal effort. Eita can still cancel his choice so they better tell each other soon. |
 |
| not gonna lie just really happy how nice this episode look despite it being quite stressful lol,good job to the staff for pull through all the nightmare-ish production. Eita's smile could be interpreted in many different ways |
 |
| Hehe, nice job with the test taking. Really adds the thrill...and memories of taking tests... Eita said that he will admit his feelings if he passes so.... If he passes, Natsume wins. If he fails, Komiya wins because he won't confess to Natsume. Well the worst case scenario is the "You are both my wings" ending, but that's very unlikely to happen. Well nothing is set in stone. Anything can happen. All we can do now is wait... |

| Lol. In the midst of all the trash, did they completely forget about Yoriko? Are we gonna find out who she likes or what? I care about her more than pretty much every girl that isn't Komiya. Plus, it's not like you're providing anything of substance with the Natsume story. You get a nice little summary of what's to come episodes ahead and she's still got the personality of your average cardboard box. Yoriko could've had 2-3 full episodes and you would've still gotten the same amount of significant content the Natsume portion of the story has to offer. Wouldn't have to fight to stay awake through that one either.  It is what it is. I'm sure there's a crowd of people watching that like watching Natsume breath for 5 minutes or something. Plus the more screentime you give Natsume, the more of a chance you give her to fall in love with the next guy to make eye contact with her.  Pine Jam better chill. |

| I really liked the subtle way that Morikawa and Natsume became friends over the span of 2-3 episodes. To me, Natsume seemed like the jealous type, so this seems like part of the "good ending" progression of figuring out what she really wanted. Also is it just me or is this OST one of the best of the year? |
 Explaining my scoring system would take more than 650 characters. |
| Eita obviously failed I don't see him showing emotion when he pass |

| I really love the atmospheric vibe this show gives. Paired up with a drama/romance plot that resonates with it. 5/5 this episode can't wait for the finale. Hope it would work out for both of them |
| Nice episode. Not bad. They improved a lot on the art, and builds up for the ending. They better do it well. |
 "Le vent se lève!... Il faut tenter de vivre!" - Paul Valéry, Le Cimetière Marin - |
| So Ena won and Natsume passed, Eita probably didn't pass and it wasn't shown that Haruto told him about Natsume's first choice. I wonder then why didn't pass and i assume that the exam must be easier than the one to Joei + wasn't he destroying tests while preparing. Well that leaves the confession part. |
 |
| I understand that Natsume is the girl who will obviously win, but the existence of the Komiya and the weak elaboration of the first make this for me another generic school romance. I do not understand why Japanese authors prefer to make us regret loser girl, than admire the central couple. |
 |
| Nooo... they both are happy..but.... final episode to go |
 |
| I just hope that he will end with Natsume. I don't hate Komiya tho, but it has to be Natsume. |
| Dub = fake crap. Always. |
| I'm quite happy with how they've paced everything, the series really exceeded my expectations. They're also really heavily promoting the bluray and DVD here in Akihabara so it looks like things have turned out quite well for the series :-) |
