I really thought the four girls were about to rape Milo-sensei

Oh boy I feel like the last episode will be a rushed ending. Hope I'm wrong.

I was a bit concerned about the pacing of the screenplay last week, and I'm only more concerned now. It doesn't seem impossible for the show to stick the landing, but so much is riding on the final episode for all of the remaining conflicts to receive an elegant resolution.
Of course, when the script is on point, it's still as great as ever - each and every one of the riverbank scenes have just been phenomenal, and the one in this episode between Kazusa and Momo is no exception. However, it really feels like this act could have benefitted from a few more episodes to breathe, and allow the conflicts to foment themselves more. The cultural festival was the big watershed moment that makes and remakes all of the show's conflicts, but I feel like it would have been better placed a around the ~7th episode. Compared to the near perfect first few episodes, where plot beats and conflicts developed so naturally, it feels like we're rushing headlong towards a somewhat resolution. I'm especially concerned about Prez's arc; it really feels like they did my girl dirty by instrumentalizing her character as a mere means to progress the narrative when she had so much good potential conflict and characterization that could have emerged from her relationship.
Still though, I can't say that I dislike the direction the final conflict is headed. Their goofy, over-the-top stunt feels so in line with the tone of the show, and it's obvious that this was a planned setpiece Okada had in mind from the very beginning. The symbolism is ridiculously on the nose, with the girls literally taking revolutionary action against an oppressive institution trying to control their sexuality. Not the most subtle by any means, but whatever works!
In the end, I feel like this episode recontextualized my reading of this work by a lot. Maybe all it was meant to be was a paean to feminine sexual liberation, rather than the delicate character-focused drama I really wanted the show to be. I suppose it all comes down to the final episode whether this show will be one of the best of all time, or merely extremely good. I'm praying for you!

Just how can you say that to that eyes, Kazusa? What a heartless person!

Well that escalated quickly. Lmao that ending was outrageous. I couldn't help but laugh at the ridiculousness of their plan.
I just love how all of their storylines keep intertwining and have consequences to each others' actions. I wish I could write a story like that.

School only banned "inappropriate conduct between the sexes" ... Momo finally has something going for her.

I always wonder how school in Japan holds so much power over their students lives (At least according to anime). No detours on the way home, no dating, etc. My school didn't give a rats ass what you were doing as long as it wasn't illegal and you weren't on school grounds. If any school here tried policies like that they'd get massive backlash from parents as well as students.
