This episode is fine but pacing feels strange.

Gotta respect Fushimi for how hard working he is. All the guys needed a boost in confidence but I'm kinda looking forward to their grand performance soon.

The drama part with Tsumugi was good, now they're ready for the final, I can't wait!

AZAMIN!!!! I didn't expect to see him in the anime so soon, so that was a pleasant surprise - although, yeah, perhaps that too serves to highlight how weird the pacing is.

Not nearly as much as the quality, though, I mean, how on earth do you have nothing but two people in a frame, talking to each other, yet looking past each other? Jeez. (I usually don't even understand when others complain about animation quality or whatever because that's how much I don't notice it, but yeah it's just very obvious and consistent here.)

On another note: this episode supplied quite literally everything to confirm the Tachan/Tsumu couple. Can't convince me otherwise. xD

The Angel act of the Winter Troupe opens its curtains to an expected round of applause, and a good curtain call. Things are getting more riled up.

The God Troupe's schemes sure knows no limits of throwing shade against Mankai Company, especially with the renewed relationship of both Tasuku and Tsumugi that's getting better by the count. Even their impromptu street act was really nice though.

All they need now is for Tsumugi to think things through after all the taunting of times past and present. He's an easy target to give up with accumulating failures, and without support he'd fail outright, but the change lies with Tasuku to help him out in building his confidence.

A play is teamwork together, and no one can go through it alone. The final episode beholds, and the showdown with God Troupe will prove crucial. Good luck Winter Troupe!

Under the same umbrella, snowing, this might be the strongest ship A3 offer so far.

I think I see some new generation, if it can be make into anime, like the skincare advisor in drugstore, and of cource, that big hunk stagehand that we saw since the first season.

Pacing is really strange with the play. A supernatural romance between a human and an angel that's titled "Sympathy for the Angel". Also, why is Tsumugi smiling during the death scene? A sadder expression would fit it more.

If they added the human girl as a character in the play it would make more sense. The audience had to read between the lines for the play scenes to make sense. In old times, female characters were played by male actors. Women weren't allowed to participate in theater back then.

Also, the producers try to add more screen time for Muku Sakisaki by making him appear occasionally in the sequel. But he is in the summer troupe. The spot light was on Tenma and Yuki for the summer act.

Yuki and Taichi have both played female roles so it's not like they're not willing to do that. Bringing in a female outsider and expecting them to fit in and then leave after the play wouldn't have worked, and everyone else had their own roles. I just think the focus was supposed to be more on the angels than the human in this case.

Azami in the beauty isle, what will he do!? Nice to see that


Its the TSUMUGI ANGST EPISODE WHY!!! TT.TT It was beautifully animated though, it hit just right in the feels! Yep, it broke me like how it did in the game- Tsumu you're perfect as you are, just like how Ta-chan said

The nicknames and them laughing so wholesome, even rest of fuyugumi and director thinks that ^^

Will it be 'that' development for Hisoka next episode, the scene where they were laughing focused too much on him to not see through that...

Oh yeah, there's him too... Honestly, at this rate I won't be surprised if we get a shot of him somewhere.

Ah well, skipping the act much for the last, eh? Surely. That long hair guy, tho. I wonder who he was? When everything seemed to be fine. God Troupe director never tired to disturbed their compactness. Especially with the important duo at the winter troupe, Tsumu and Tacchan. Oh wow! But its perfectly hitting Tsumu very much that he even need to changed his routines in the middle of their last performance. Thats sounds bad. For the sake of a little bad voice that potentially from God Troupe, Tsumu forcefully destroyed their last act. The history seemed to be repeated at Tsumu Tasuku relations. However, its not too late to be a better person, its not too late to confessed the mistake. Obviously, with a little encouragement from Director-chan, everything turned out to be well enough.

So, while the problem between those two souls already cleared out, together with their difficult past, its time for their last ultimate act to defeated those arrogant God Troupe. Can't wait for the next week!
