Another great and heartwarming episode. Let's get on with the predictions, shall we?

I'm still convinced that Goto-sensei will die later on. Here's an ending I thought up that was inspired by an unrelated novel (not light novel) I read before, maybe Goto-sensei will miss Hime's graduation ceremony and when Hime gets home confused why her father didn't attend her graduation ceremony she'll receive a phone call from the hospital, and when Hime gets there she receives a letter telling her where the house is and instructions how to get there, or something like that. Not sure how he would die though, I at first thought maybe Hime's grandfather planned something that would lead to Goto-sensei's death but he cares about Hime a lot so I doubt he would deliberately try to harm Goto-sensei. Maybe it's something like a car accident, seeing as how he almost ran out to the train tracks this episode. Maybe he was rushing to Hime's graduation but then got ran over by a car. Who knows?

Ignoring the ominous foreshadowing, this episode was quite nice. I at first thought the card Hime was hiding was a card for Goto-sensei's birthday, which the man himself forgot about, but turns out it was a friends. Quite depressing how he desperately told Hime to celebrate things before she couldn't anymore. Did he miss his chance to celebrate an anniversary with his wife?

On the other hand, I don't know why but I'm liking Tomaruin more and more. I like to think that he and Goto-sensei would have something like a broship in the future.

Chapter 53 - Kuroko no Tasuke
Chapter 90 - Yakusoku no Retriever Land
Chapter 95 - Nisete Koi
and so on.

I still hope all these after credits scenes are actually misleading and Goto is safe and sound and it's all made in that way to trick us. I hope..

What a great episode! The whole birthday scene was awesome.

Shared account...i feel your pain Goto sensei.

The whole sad scene didn't explain anything again :/ And here i was hoping for more story. They will still have to address it before the season ends so there should be no reason for me to worry.

Now that i noticed, in the ED's last scenes, there are 2 ppl and the dog in the car, meaning that he is alive!!! I just want to hope for a good ending.

Roku is such a cutie pie. He's a great best friend to Hime-chan. Not gonna lie, any moment with the puppy is my favorite, especially when Hime-chan is in the scene too.

That birthday bit was both touching and sad.

That's so huh? Do you reckon that the Manga is ending? Maybe it'll be a full adaptation in that case?

I've heard rumors, but nothing substantial. Though. assuming that the future plot would happen somewhere near the end of the series and there apparently being raws that show what happened to Kakushi, I would assume it's relatively close to ending. Having said that, given the anime is showing the future plot, maybe they'll end it here and not have another season, leaving the rest of the chapters unadapted.

Great episode! Another heartwhelming and sweet episode, I liked the message about Kakushi not being able to overlay the sketches and how it's not just about his drawings but rather how he's been trying to fulfil the emptyness after Hime's mother died, which was later adressed by the end of the episode.

oh nice their dog has a name Goto Roku!
The cooking sensei still interested in Gotou! nice!
so i'm thinking, based on the last part of this episode, Gotou-sensei went far away for work reasons? since Hime-chan is gonna be college and of course need more money for tuition...i guess?
5/5.

Idk if I'm going through denial or what, but what if all this foreshadowing isn't that her dad died, but her grandfather taking her away because either everyone found out about his occupation or something? Seems like grandfather is teaching his granddaughter a lot of skills fit for a Hime...cries,,, please Gotoe-sensei don't die.

Yeah, I'm not sure I buy all the speculation that Goto is dead either. Given the whole subplot with Hime's grandfather, I'm suspecting it will have something to do with Goto not being able to see Hime, or perhaps he has some sort of crisis and goes away for a while. Also the very end of the ED shows both Goto and Hime in the car with the dog all grown up.

Every episode has such a nice line of advice from Dad to Child... "You need to celebrate these things while you still can..."... This hurts so much. Hime thinks so much about the well-being of her Dad, but Hime please, enjoy your younger years ;_;!!

An okay episode, looking at friends birthday party and Hime first birthday in the photo. Looks cool to seeing more development between Hime and her dad in this episode. And wth with that basic concept of the manga part in the half of the episode? Is Goto referring
in his line of word 'the only that can publish the raw manga material as official'? I can't stop laughing on that line!

About the present time, Rasuha keep her appearance as an iconic mature girl on this show. Still my favourite must be Hime chan with no other choice at first glance, haha. Besiding how sad the present time had talk to the MC lifes, the show transition take its best to portray all events, which is nice to watching it at all. Yet, the bad and good news still undelivered. Where are they?

Animal voices in anime are annoying to begin with, because they sound like just some guy trying to do the worst impression of an animal call. But here, they aren't even pretending to put any effort. They might as well literally say "bark" and it wouldn't be much different.

Hime's reason is so cute. She turn down a classmate’s birthday party invitation at first was out of consideration for her dad. Such noble and innocent reason.

Going into the episodes not knowing how much it will make me tear up X)

Cute episode. When he cries, I cry too T^T And the one scene where he didn't get to choose his baby's name T^T and Hime saying it doesn't matter who chooses the name it as long as it suits it T^T

I wonder if the mom was the one who painted the painted of sensei, Hime, and unknown lady.

I would love to see less of the editor in the episodes, he kind of spoils the mood sometimes...idk. Also, still can't get over the dog's barks. Roku just barks out of nowhere with that human like bark.

Hime still considering that she can't have a bday party. And the point is a guy can do anything mostly to their child. Too much love this episode.

Coincidence Hime dog name is Roku and my dog name is Kuro. I should make their both together.

Naming things is hard. I'm sympathetic of Hime's plight.

Heh, the editor freaking out over 38th Anniversary of the Magazine but not the 100th Chapter of their manga was amusing.

But, Gotou's assistant and editor referring him in the past tense at the end of the episode certainly doesn't bode well.

I sympathize with Kakushi's issue over his sketches all too well. The final product just can't seem to compare in quality for some god damn reason. His solution for it was an absolute stroke of genius.

But to think that gag would carry over to such a hard-hitting scene. Is he sure that his wife wasn't the one who made that painting of them? Regardless, it just sucks so much how their plans got ruined in one of the worst ways possible.
