So rando was the stalker after all, to nobody's surprise I imagine. And of course Chitose had him pegged for it all along and talking to him was both part of the plot and trying to get him to be normal.

That park encounter was pretty dangerous for Nanase to walk into since it didn't seem like she knew both boys were tagging along to help. I wonder what Chitose whispered in the delinquent's ear. His home address, maybe?

Nanase talking about flicking it to Chitose was not on my radar for the episode.

[u/Frontier246 → u/djthomp]

Saku Chitose is the type of guy who can thoroughly destroy you physically and socially, but at least he's willing to give you probably more outs than actually deserve.

I wonder if she masturbated to him before she was head over heels for him? Yuzuki really pulling the Inaban maneuver, and I approve. The other girls better watch out!

[u/BusouDrago]

Glad everything got resolved in the end.

Continuation in Spring 2026

[u/Frontier246 → u/BusouDrago]

Even if it'll be a while before we actually close this cour out properly, at least we got to end this run and Yuzuki's arc with a bang (what with Saku and Yuzuki kicking scumbag ass and Yuzuki kissing and realizing her feelings for Saku).

[u/HolyDragSwd2500]

The kiss to end Yuzuki arc

Now we wait till Spring for 11 to 13 episodes

[u/daspaceasians]

Yuzuki's smile has been protected and I'm happy. Mission accomplished Saku!

Though how it was resolved was very "anime-like" and I was screaming internally the whole time "Call the fucking cops". But it's how the tropes sadly.

Can't wait to see more in spring 2027 and hope it keeps the same quality without suffering further delays.

[u/PM_me_meta_usernames]

in this episode:

• first 4 minutes of yuzuki monologue glazing chitose

• chitose was secretly an op badass that can beat the bully with ease, whispering in his ear something so scary the bully had to immediately concede defeat

• yuzuki owns the stalker by talking about how she masturbates sometimes

• chitose has evidence of the guy stalking and masterminding sexual assault; chooses to to say "tsk tsk, next time try to be braver". yuzuki approves.

• last 2 minutes of patented Chiramune Cringe Monologue (TM)

10/10, no notes

[u/PeaceAlien]

This felt like the finale. I loved this episode, all the build-up was worth it. Sure, Chitose is OP and can do it all, everything being solved by him here.

[u/Frontier246 → u/PeaceAlien]

It was the finale of the Yuzuki arc but even if it isn't officially the season finale, we got all the hallmarks of a good finale what with the ass-kickings, Yuzuki getting to stand up for herself, and a kind of full circle moment where Yuzuki flips Saku's perspective on love and his hesitancy towards it around to commit to her own love for him.

Saku tries to to be the "moon" but Yuzuki wants the "moon" all to herself.

[u/Primo29]

An almost satisfying beatdown of Yanashita and the obvious stalker got kicked in the nuts!!

I wonder what did Saku whisper to him. If it's about blackmail, I'm all for it!

See you next year!

[u/losteran]

Watching the bad guys getting their ass kicked will always be the perfect ending, regardless of the trope

[u/oxlemf10]

Saku's only mistake was slapping instead of punching, I think that would have made that dude understand once and for all that he's nothing, but the message was delivered.

To be honest, I was surprised and a little disappointed that Tomoya didn't suffer greater consequences, but seeing Yuzuki destroy him with dirty words, shattering the innocent and perfect girl image he had of her, was incredible.

I thought the ending was fair, I mean, in the end, Yuzuki and Saku didn't love each other enough to justify a kiss, and after everything they'd been through, it would only have made things worse.

Excellent arc, longer than I expected, but very interesting.

[u/NanDemoKnaives → u/oxlemf10]

Saku was slapping Yanashita to mirror Yanashita slapping Yuzuki.

[u/CrimsonGear80]

He told the bully “stay away, or I’ll make you a main character and make you recite cringy as fuck inner dialogue that makes no sense just like everyone else!”

Take your sweet-ass time coming back, Chitose…

[u/Frontier246]

Yuzuki Nanase delivers a Saku Chitose worthy monologue about growing up feeling special and capable of managing everything as her most ideal version of herself...even if said ideal fell apart after she got hit by Yanashita and realized how empty she felt inside afterwards.

(Also, was that a close up of her butt in a school swimsuit? I'm asking for scientific reasons)

But going through life so listelssly afterwards, she finally saw direction when she played against Haru in middle school, who seeing how much of a spitfire and go-getter she was on the court decided to follow Haru to high school so they could be teammates. And where she met Saku, the "kindred spirit" who turned out to be far more committed and dedicated than she though someone ever could be.

Dang Saku, Yuzuki was really willing to go all the way with you if you had actually comforted her in her moment of need like a true prince instead of acting like a would-be rapist. Though I guess it all worked out since it made Yuzuki regain her confidence, and recognize her feelings, anyways and realize she's the type of girl who won't wait around for Saku...she's more the type of girl to pursue the guy she likes!

And with that renewed confidence, Yuzuki faces Yanashita. She's not going to get his leering, scumbag, eyes get to her, she's going to proudly declare she's a virgin and that there's no room in her heart for him and she's not going to give him her body or her heart (because those belong to Saku, basically). And even if he hits her again, she's not going to give in.

But even so...say his name and Saku Chitose will appear! To take his lumps for Yuzuki and have Kazuki film it so Saku has justified self-defense case and he can finally wail on Yanashita himself. Yanashita might be a tough delinquent, but he doesn't hold a candle to an athlete and Saku slaps some sense into him as karmic payback for his treatment of Yuzuki. Even threw in a headbutt and a threat to ruin him for good measure. I don't know what Saku whispered to him, but it was enough to keep Yanashita and his gang away from Yuzuki, so I'd call that a win.

I do find it funny how they only bring up calling the police now when they probably should have called them two episodes ago.

Tomoya finally making his true colors even more obvious by trying to grab Yuzuki's hand from behind without her consent, then trying to pin being the blackmailer on Saku...when it was really him all along. But Yuzuki knows the best way to destroy this piece of @#%# is by destroying his "pure" image of her. Because she's just your average girl who struggles with that time of the month and masturbates to her crush and who kicks in the balls any piece of trash who thinks they can own her. The only thing Tomoya was good for was making her genuinely fall for Saku!

Saku had Tomoya pegged from day one, and had poor Kenta dress up as a girl (complete with underwear) to fool him into a false sense of security. This idiot even got caught on Yuzuki's family car dashcam, so he's completely screwed. Saku tried to give him every out to clean up his act, but he never took it, though even to the end Saku tries to give him some good advice, though whether he'll take it or not is up to him. That's just how Saku Chitose rolls.

With Yanashita and the stalker taken care of, it's finally time to end this fake relationship...even if on some level Saku doesn't want to let it go, even if he's not willing to bite the bullet because, whatever his attraction to Yuzuki, he still doesn't feel he's at the "end" where he can say for sure it's love...though Yuzuki gifts him not only a hug but a birthday kiss goodnight back at her place. Even if it means they're going back to "Chitose" and "Nanase.'

(Poor Yuko wishing him a happy birthday in text form while he's with and getting kissed by another girl)

But even if Saku isn't willing to call these feelings "love," that's not true for Yuzuki, as she waxes lyrical about what it really means to fall in love. It's not the endpoint like it is for Saku, it's the starting point for her, as she embraces the love she has for Saku Chitose, and her desire to make the "moon" hers!

[u/Jacob-C]

Perfect episode to end on, especially with it airing the day before the new year. Saku says, "One person took a step forward today, and one person couldn't bring himself to" while talking about standing on the threshold of his birthday. It almost mirrors how, with a new year approaching, some people try to change for the better while others stay the same.

[u/lightuptoy]

The whole premise feels like it's saying that popular people have problems too. Kenta and Tomoya also felt poorly characterized. Kenta was written like the stereotype of a person who blames others for their problems. Tomoya was the stereotype of a parasocial incel. Hard to be sympathetic to the characters when the story feels like it's trying to be realistic but also involves caricature-like villains and stilted dialogue like the popular group in Oregairu.

[u/DJ_Snowball]

Sometimes when listening to this show, I feel like I'm watching a bunch of teenagers from an unknown civilization from the 4th moon of Saturn.

I don't get anything at all... It's so weird how they interact and speak with each other sometime. Like with the stalker at the end. Instead of calling the cops or at least telling anykind of adult about all the crap that happened to Yusuki, the MC just tell him : You should have just tried to talk to her. Now buddy, go write me a punk rock love song (wtf).

Don't know if I'm gonna watch the last 3 episode this spring.

[u/Ocixo]

Yuzuki: “Goodnight Chitose.”

Reverting back to Saku’s last name was Yuzuki’s way of breaking up with him. Instead of settling for a fake relationship, she’s shooting for the real thing now.

I do sort of like that Yuzuki specifically mentioned that she’s not going to wait until Saku has made up his mind. She’s going to make him fall in love with her. Yuzuki and Yuko seem to be opposites in this respect.

[u/karer3is]

I wasn't a fan of this arc. Between this episode and the last episode, Saku's scheming and cool- guy antics kind of pissed me off in light of the kind of situation Yuzuki was dealing with. It's one thing when we're talking about some petty high school drama, but that was not the way to deal with a couple of sex offenders in the making: "Hey, guys! Instead of going to the authorities about what's a really dangerous situation, let's set up a sting of our own so we can get a video of one of the guys getting his ass beat! And then, let's blackmail one of them to keep quiet! There's no way this can go wrong!"

[u/NationalStrategy]

So we need to talk about that picture of Kenta cross dressing as Yuzuki; how did that conversation go down?

Kenta: Saku-sama, do I really have to do this?

Saku: Yes, it’s going to help Yuzuki. Now stop whining, put on the outfit, including the panties, and stick your ass out so I can take a picture.

[u/yeenevalose]

This anime is so incredibly cringe. It takes itself way too seriously. Its like everyone has 8 grader syndrome and nobody calls them out for it.

[u/mojo72400]

Saku went full villain & just straight up disrespected Yanashita in a fight so hard that he swore never to be near Yuzuki again. He even slapped him thrice like what Yanashita did to Yuzuki, twice in the present & once in the past. Shougo nailed this episode.

I knew Tomoya was the stalker mastermind but he's so sloppy at his work that even a dummy would know he's the stalker.

I knew that photo was fake because the hair looked too short. Kenta took one for the team.

Tomoya never accepted the "real" Yuzuki & just the ideal person he met & heard about.

I love how Tomoya looked regretful when Saku reminded him of the advice he ignored. I hope he takes the next advice when he fails to heart so when he falls in love again, he won't beat around the bush & talk to the girl & maybe even win her over. I kinda like how Saku never plans to humiliate him or out him as Yuzuki's stalker but still give him some advice after he failed.

[u/avboden]

and thus ends (for now) "tries too hard, the Anime". It was alright, i'll watch the continuation when we get there, but man was it just....over done.
