Synopsis

When Nicoletta was a little girl, her mother, Olga, abandoned her and ran off to Rome to remarry. Now, 15 years later and a young woman, she travels to Rome with the intention of ruining her mother's life. She tracks Olga down to a restaurant called Casetta dell'Orso, but the second Nicoletta steps through its door, everything changes. It's a peculiar place staffed entirely by mature gentlemen wearing spectacles, and like their clientele, she is helpless against their wise smiles and warm voices. Before Nicoletta realizes it, her plans for vengeance start to fade, and she's swept up in the sweet romance of everyday Italian life.

Mhm... not a single thing comes to mind for this episode. I don't even recommend opening my review before watching the final episode. This is a special gift for Nicoletta, the waitresses, Olga, and all of us viewers. A truly special gift. I'll just give my overall rating instead. This episode gave me the same feeling as the final episode of Idoly Pride. It genuinely touched my heart, it was pure sweetness overload. The buildup over the previous 10 episodes was so well done that it made this finale feel incredibly precious.

Damn, Luciano is way too loyal, bro... He's the GOAT no doubt. This episode honestly feels like the conclusion to every type of love Nicoletta has witnessed throughout the previous episodes. I'd say I was half wrong about this anime, it doesn't actually rely on fan service that much. It's more like... a lesson about love, showing all the different forms it can take. This... is Authentic mutual love.

I didn't expect this anime to show people getting molested 😭😭😭😭 TWICE in the entire show. GAH DANG, that's crazy work. Anyway, yeah... Nicoletta, please listen to your seniors. They've all been through multiple bad experiences. And yep, we shouldn't just run away after making a mistake, instead we should face it head-on and learn from it. A nice moral lesson from this episode.

There's so many beautiful views in this episode, and plus what I really liked about this episode is that Nicoletta isn't some childish girl who can't even take a single complaint. We can see her growth really well in this episode, how she keeps improving every time she fails. That's true determination. Well played Nicoletta.

It's not that bad tbh. It's just a wholesome episode atm. Like, spending a special day with your family just sounds so calm and fun isn't it ? The only thing that pissed me off was the other children's dialogue. It felt really template/too generic, sure they're NPCs, but pls don't make it so obvious 😭

This is deep. A relationship after marriage really needs to be protected at all costs. That's why both sides need to understand each other. How did a fan-service anime end up being this good? Like, the main story is ass, but when it comes to the side characters' lore, it's way better than the main plot itself dawg...

Well, good for Olga for finally telling Lorenzo the truth, and good for Lorenzo for accepting it—damn, it was about time they talked truthfully, so excellent. I liked the ending of this anime BUT I never got used to the design of the characters' eyes and expressions; I found it a bit unsettling at times, not with all the characters, but definitely with some of them. It's a different style of animation from what I've seen, and regarding the plot, there were things I liked, such as how they approach the topic of love, but I didn't like the Claudio x Nicoletta relationship—the age gap is a bit unsettling. Good anime, but I wouldn’t watch it twice.

Love can definitely take many shapes, perspectives, and sizes, and that's exactly what Nicoletta learns every time she's around these older gentlemen waiters, who have a more interesting love life than mine, haha. Sometimes it's not that you can't forget someone, it's just that you don't want to. Falling in love is truly a complicated thing, especially if you fall for real—sometimes it's much harder for us to move on... I liked this episode; I think the way they approached the topic of love was quite well done.
