Hate CR with passion. Watching raws reminds me of the disparity between my reading and listening skills in Japanese. The latter's better, btw.
Anyway, open finale, McKenzie best buddy, Koutarou's got best reaction faces. Nice wrap-up. Enjoyable till the end. |

Well, it's out, and it was great. Only "poor" character by the end of the season, in my opinion, is Ruth. And even then, she isn't so much "poor" as it is that she's the same now as she was when the series began, but a little worse since now she's randomly partly yandere.

Delayed? It's out now.
A solid last episode. It wrapped things up nicely, and even showed the other princess and maki, although they should've also included those ghost thieves and the earth people invader if they wanted to show everyone, but who cares about a bunch of male villains, we only need the cute girl villains! We didn't get to see the landlady's backstory, and that bit about sakuraba giving koutarou her gift as alaia got me confused, were they acting? but harumi's hair suddenly turned white, was that just the light and the snow? and we still don't know who that girl back in ep1 was. I know I keep saying this with everyone show I like every season, but I do hope we get an s2. But considering how much of these series are just glorified advertisements for the source material, I wouldn't expect it to happen that much |

I refuse to judge a first season by what could happen if it gets a second season unless the second season is already confirmed. So until/unless a second season happens, she's the weakest character.
That said, I still rank this as one of my top 3 series this season. |

well... that last moment between Sakuraba and Koutarou is pretty mysterious
this episode is somehow become a perfect ending for this season it's very heartwarming... with several flashback, we could conclude that there are many developments in all the characters except landlady and Ruth I hope they could make second season |

Man ... yes indeed - super strong hints at a second season. I would love to see more, but ... well ... I will believe it when I see it!
Still, agree with Yami: that last moment between Sakuraba and Koutarou was pretty mysterious, and as a whole the ep was a decent ending should another season not be made. Overall the series was a pleasant surprise. Nothing earth-shaking, but definitely unexpected. 7/10 on the whole from me for it.

Yeah, I liked this episode a lot, I was wondering from the title if any of them would bring up their original invasions, but glad to see it was just a nice party episode. Also glad the harem antics didn't get too crazy either. Though that princess moment was mysterious. Can't tell if Koutarou was just playing along or not, though Harumi did change. Hm, wonder if the rest of the girls got presents in the LN.
Overall, liked this show a lot, fun characters, most of them got some development or spotlight time (the landlady seems like most minor to me though), and while I know the harem is still developing, liked that everyone was still friendly. I wish there would be a second series, but glad to watch one season of this show at least. |

Loved for it to have its second season
and is that Maki stalking Koutarou? some part is kinda confusing didn't Sakuraba transfomed into the princess during Yurika's arc? and didn't Maki erase their memories of that part/battle then why did koutarou know her? |

In terms of their memories though , I think it's possible since it's been shown Koutaro can cancel their magic, e.g. the magic Barrier so it is possible the memory erasing magic might not have affected them fully.

We assume her hair only changes colors for the benefit of the viewer to show the identity change while the characters in the series don't see it. |
