THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
So Miku managed to talk some sense into Nino, Nino has also decided to move on and leave the past behind her, she even cut her hair to mark a new fresh start. Yotsuba's problem with the track club was also solved thanks to Nino's intervention, and that face she made when she was talking to the club prez was hella hot.



A lot happens in this one episode, surprised they could fit this many events in one ep. It felt a bit rushed tbh, but still enjoyed it.

Nino looks amazing with short hair, sasuga best girl she looks good no matter the hair style. Also, Nino trying to deny her feelings after Fuu saved her was precious. This should be the final episode of the seven goodbyes arc, looking forward to the next episode, need me more of Nino.

Ooh, an episode focused more on Yotsuba. How interesting. And not only that, we got to see some of the track and field club. She has so much energy in this show.

I like all the girls works together to deal with their problem this episode rather than bickering. Looks like there are once again flashbacks of the mystery girl. How sweet that all the girls jumped into the water to show their feelings for Fuutarou.

To be honest, never expected so much plot in one episode...from Yotsuba leaving the club until their new apartment...it happened so fast..but they are happy together in the end which is the most important thing

wow this episode was such a ride... feel kinda bad that yotsuba got forced to leave the basketball club, but i guess you have to sacrifice one thing to get another sometimes. nino cutting her hair really surprised me and i liked her look with long her better but medium length looks cute too so i'm fine with it. i was glad the sisters finally made up and then fuutaro resigned and shit got pretty sad... the ending was really wholesome though and looks like he's coming back so thats great.

Finally the debut of short-haired Nino in the anime 💘, been waiting for this forever. After this her behavior will become better and better, especially towards Fuutarou/
to the point of justification to consider her of being the best girl of the series. Can't wait to so all of it once again, animated.

Season two has changed my mind about the show, as someone who hasn't read the manga I don't think a single episode of season 1 I thought of a 5/5 or even 4/5, and to me, I definitely think this was a 5/5 episode. We saw tons of development for characters like Nino and the other quintuplets. I hope the rest of the season proceeds like this episode.

The revelation that Kintaro was actually Futaro in disguise all along really hit Nino hard. Miku and Nino's argument though was amusing. As forging a new path forward goes cutting beloved hair was an excellent way of showing Nino's determination to forge a new path for herself. The girls overall results sure was interesting despite the efforts they put into studying. While the relationship between Futaro and the girls may have been a mixed one the knowledge that he imparted in them sure has helped to change them significantly. The connected messages though was a nice touch and did well to enable the girls to counter their fathers plan with their own creative one. But the end scene where they all jumped in to save Futaro sure was gutsy and did well to show just how much Futaro meant to them all. As a new year approaches looks like a new path for them all has opened up.

I really love this episode
This is probably my favourite episode so far.

To be honest I didn’t expect he would quit as a tutor
So I did feel emotional a bit because I wasn’t expecting it
But I really do love the ending too

I’m excited for more episodes ^

Nino looked great with long hair until I saw her with short hair, she looked even better!

Well if Fuutarou cannot go to the Nakano's house the only logical decision the sister's must take is to move in beside Fuutarou.

Its ok all you Anime Only kiddos, we #TeamNino chads will still take you in from your generic Miku and Itsuki ships. Always room for more ^_^

...

All jokes aside, such a great episode, at first I wasn't sure if I liked the new animation studio's job on the series, but I feel like with more and more episodes of season 2 premiering its really starting to be the superior season.

Our favorite Quintuplets are back with a fabulous episode. This episode was fantastic, so many things happened like Nino and Itsuki finally reconciling, Nino cutting her hair, Futarou almost giving up on tutoring them, the girls moving to another place thanks to Ichika's allowance.

My favorite part about this episode was how the girls inmediately missed Futarou when they were told that he wouldn't tutor them anymore, all of them demonstrated that they need and want him tutoring them, they have made progress academically since he started tutoring them.

Also Nino was cute, it seems that she'll start being likeable and let that hateful persona that she was showing behind, i'm happy.

Idk, this season just isn’t doing it for me compared to the first season. I’m not sure if it is because I have watched a lot more anime since then or if there has been a drop in quality. I don’t like the girls’ eyes this season, they are too soulless and uncanny even for anime standards. I also think that the Nino conflict was resolved too easily. I felt that the conflict was contrived from the start, so the resolution did not change my stance on it.

Finally short hair Nino, she looks cute. I loved it when she helped Yotsuba say no to the track team, the look on her face was terrifying. Also Yotsuba's reaction was just hilarious.

The second half hit hard in the feels. The quints left their luxurious place so that Fuutarou could keep teaching them and that scene where all of them jumped in to help him was just beautiful.

In the manga him leaving was handled a lot better, kind don’t understand why it was condensed so much bcos it’s a big plot moment, I know they’ll show the call later but regardless it didn’t feel right for this episode

They could've gone the cheap route and have them do well on their exams; yay they did it they got good grades now futaro can keep tutoring them because he did a good job!

But no they fail pretty badly except miku's socials LOL! I'm glad that it is this way though. It's more real, and the feels are more real as well. Although jumping in a river when it's below zero fully clothed and surviving is not very realistic but hey nice way to show that the girls want their man no matter what! Welp that's that character arc finally completed from the start of season 1 till now. All of them, even nino, have accepted that mc-kun is the tutor for them and it is satisfying to see. As someone who isn't exactly fond of this series I must say I am looking forward to whatever follows

It's a shame Nino cut her long beautiful hair but she does look just as good with her shorter cut so I think I will let it pass this one time.

Great episode on the whole, Nino pretending to be Yotsuba was great and her making up with Itsuki was great too. I love that they both bought tickets to the movie the other wanted to see.

Finally, Nino's heart goes doki-doki. Give me all that dere goodness that's to come.

Wow this episode was probably the best one so far. I didn’t even know Nino was impersonating Yotsuba that goodly! Cutting her hair means she’s growing and she’s even more beautiful now. I hope her and Fuutarou can understand each other more. OH and when they rented an apartment that was unexpected. It means they’re truly moving forward in life and wanting more of Uuesugi. Concludes 7 Goodbyes arc, I wonder what’s next.

Really great episode, I can definitely see why there were those who felt it was rushed because when you come from the manga, they really packed a lot of plot and development in this one episode, but some thinking that Futarou's resignation was dumb clearly don't understand his character and his motives, I'd suggest reading the few chapters from the manga about that so they can understand better (Seven Goodbyes) but then again, you'll learn more about it later in the series too so just wait and listen.

A really cool touch I noticed was how under the bridge, where the track team was gathering, we see Yotsuba's correct hair color, which was pink, and even Itsuki's hair is pink when she is trying to resign in Yotsuba's place, I'm sure this was just because they were in the shade, but I like to think the animators did this as a little easter egg to show what their actual, manga, hair colors are.

I don't know if in the manga it was developed (and how) cos I haven't read it, but I really hope they show us the phone call between Fuutaro and Mr. Nakano in some future episode, just like they dealt with Rena's scene (I mean, they wouldn't have show us the phone screen if it wansn't relevant or if they just wanted to skip that event).
However, besides the plot being more consolidated now, this season is notably improving as it goes in any aspect.
i read the manga SPOILER>>>>> and i hope they adapt the phone call, maybe in the next episode already, it’s so important


If you read next episode title, that won't be the case.
