Hmm it was okay. The episode still had a nostalgic feeling to it with its serene way of storytelling with the feels trip this week. Very simple show!

It was an okay episode.

A story about the teachers was nice.

Forget about the marriage proposal, what was she wearing on her right arm? It looks so out-of-place. Is that like a shorthand for retirement or what?

I liked this show. Pretty decent farewell scenes.
The only thing is we do not ever get deep with the characters that is why it does not really hit the feel counters.
I don't know why people write that they are approachable persons,
if you were you wouldn't be on MAL.

Extended families or lovers on MAL are a farce.

He proposed in a sorta round about way but she knew. He must have loved her for the longest time and only towards the end of their careers/lives did he muster up the courage to approach her in such a personal way.

Better late than never I suppose but what is bittersweet is the what if ...

And with this final chapter we said goodbye to an anime that focuses on goodbyes. I must say in my opinion this show was very good. Like OP said this show have a serene way of telling a story that was a welcome pleasure watch…

Uh, I don't know what they're called but it's the thingy that's used to prevent the clothing from getting dirty I think. Sometimes in the newspaper industry (older) and mangaka use it too.

That confession was adorable af. :3

with only 4 episodes really feels very incomplete for me this anime, there is nothing more that I can say about it.

This was one of the more profoundly philosophical shows I've seen in a while now. Loved how simple it was, and yet how easily it got it's point through with each episode in under 8 minutes.

Job well done if you ask me.

Another great episode and I loved how this one tied in the rest of the others into it.

An anime about goodbyes was a nice change of pace. The serenity, the feels, and the touching stories was something that tugged at my heartstrings!

I have had many teachers that it was so hard to say good-bye to when they retired or passed away. You always remember those that made a difference in your life. It was wonderful to have a story where a teacher told us how all her students had affected hers.

Overall I loved this short! 9/10 is the score I gave it!
So glad that I'm not a huge manga reader, because the manga readers WHINE WAY TOO MUCH and have to RUIN every adapted anime for the ANIME ONLY WATCHERS!

I can't believe it's the end. It was something simple but very emotional, every story, every encounter, was something that made me feel so much joy and sadness both.

I was initially drawn to this show because of its synopsis; judging by the "theme of 'goodbyes,'" I realized it had the potential to utilize mono no aware storytelling, which I'm a sucker for.

And I was not disappointed! The quiet, melancholic atmosphere of the show, enhanced by the slideshow animation, was a pleasure to experience. Unfortunately, the actual content was rather hit-and-miss. The first two episodes were merely okay in my opinion, and I honestly wasn't expecting anything more for the next two. But the show outdid itself with an incredible third episode (one of the most well-executed short episodes I've ever watched) and a pretty solid finale.

I'm keeping my eye on the director of this show. Apparently this was his debut, both as a director and a writer.

What a cute show!
There was a story about little kids, students, adults, and then retirees :) Covered all generations.
I'm glad to see that both the teachers are going to end up happy together... why didn't they get married years ago!? haha

Great short series!!

This episode gave me a lot of feels. Actually made me bump this anime from a 4 to a 6. Also really made me want to apologize to some of my middle /high school teachers for wreaking so much havoc. Really really loved this ep.

The start was good, but too "romantic", but the end was horrible. It is the story that I mor disliked for all the series.

El comienzo ha estado bien, aunque demasiado "romántico", pero el final ha sido horrible. Es la historia que menos me ha gustado de la serie.

Pretty okay ending! I pretty much watched this for the VA of the previous episode, the overall story of this slightly slice of life anime was pretty okay, but other than that nothing too special.

A little weak but I do understand the love of a teacher who wants nothing more then to give back to the children they teach. That was quite real for me.

A nice little series, overall generally enjoyable, not the best looking at times but it can be very heartfelt. 6/10
