EPISODE REVIEWS
The Nightingale Arc became one of the best arcs of this anime, right up there with Bunny Girl Senpai and Dreaming Girl. The twist and conclusion were incredibly mind-bending, and they connected beautifully to the earlier arcs from before the university storyline. The final scene also served as an excellent setup for the next arc.
What a payoff. This episode ties together themes of regret, self worth, and moving forward in a way that feels very Bunny Girl Senpai. The emotional conversations land hard without feeling melodramatic, and the final moments crank the intrigue up to terrifying levels.
This episode went by really quickly. The unravelling flowed so smoothly that I was really engrossed in it. Sakuta put up quite the performance there to wrap it quickly AND even dissected her problem perfectly - I expect nothing less from him. And yet, the mystery is not over. We're now getting to the good part.
