Great episode, with the drama kicking off towards the end, and shall continue next week. Guess this is what we'll be seeing now for the last two episodes.

Sakuya's Father is something else.

NaweG · 2009-09-04, 17:15

So, did anyone else notice a flash in the preview for next week that looked like we might finally be getting to see a very important character introduced?

As for the episode itself - IS there a joke with the punchline about no mixers in Oklahoma?

Thank goodness for Crunchroll. Nothing like getting a sub the same day!

It's the same "Mysterious Girl" from the flashback episode 10 and the one who ranked 5th in the episode 14 ranking poll. And yet again, it seems to be only a flashback shot in the preview. It's kinda sad that such an important character is still not fully introduced after 2 anime seasons....

Based on the episode summary for the next episodes, it seems the last episode will just be a very ordinary one.

qwertyman · 2009-09-04, 18:27

If there is a 25th episode, at least half of it will be about Risa judging from the OP.

Even though it's in the OP, it seems like they skipped that chapter. Pitty because I kinda liked that story

It seems like next week will be the climax episode. I always thought they would end the season with it but seeing that there's one more extra episode, I hope they'll do something special with it. They seem to have the time for it as it'll only be based on chapter 147.

JaLooNz · 2009-09-04, 20:20

The wait for the Chiharu scenes was worth it!

Well, keep in mind that they also had Yukiji's filler ep occur earlier in the anime than it appeared in the manga. So it's not like it's not possible for them to do a chapter out of order. Plus, they messed around with the order of events in this episode as well (the fish bit occurs after Hina & Ayumu take a quick stroll, I believe).

orangejuicetang · 2009-09-04, 22:46

The Chiharu maid scene was hilarious. Well worth the wait.

serenade_beta · 2009-09-04, 23:20

So-so episode...
The main part is the end where Hinagiku calls Ayumu out.
I think it has been a while Hinagiku really played a part of the story... Fine with me though.

And so the series is about to end...

Spoiler for The reason why ep 24 will be epic:

Silverwyrm · 2009-09-05, 10:43

Loving Chiharu in anime form, it goes over much better than the manga for me

xellos2099 · 2009-09-05, 10:55

Upon further inspection, they cut the part concerning Gibert out and the part where he said, Foreign country is dangerous.

Alvord12 · 2009-09-06, 09:34

Good Episode, got interesting towards the end. I just loved the part where Sakuya's father comes in.

Next weeks episode is really gonna be epic!

GDB · 2009-09-06, 20:42

So 24 is the climax? I thought this season was supposed to be 25 episodes, as per the DVD listings?

`tristan` · 2009-09-06, 23:59

Episode 24 will be the climax and it seems episode 25 will feature Risa and the Croc(?) arc. Hoping for something special in the last 2 episodes. (If it is truly 25 episodes only)

-Sho- · 2009-09-07, 06:53

Good episode .

Chiharu look good without her glasses

Lol Isumi "I don't think that trick was great" she was cute ^^
Rofl , Hayate's joke ? lol i don't get it but it seems that it was hilarious

Sakuya's father ahah
Seems that Nagi seeks her parents . A drama plot will begin for her huh.
And Hina will say "it" to Ayumu finally !!!

Arg 25 episodes only thats suxx . Why not 51 ?

kniteowl · 2009-09-07, 08:53

Sakuya x Wataru 4tw lol.

Spoiler for SxW:

^Wonder if that'd make a good avatar

I can't wait for them to introduce Hayate's Ex-girlfriend in the flash back, assuming that's her lol.

SaintessHeart · 2009-09-07, 09:10

Aika is most likely going to blackmail Chiharu one day. Her yandere-eyes are epic.

Anyway, I don't get the joke about mixers is Oklahoma. What is it about exactly?

Anh_Minh · 2009-09-08, 00:45

Aika's S-mode is nice... but I prefer Sakuya's. And Isumi's. Poor Wataru.
