This episode focuses on the harsh truth that society will easily accept girls who dress like boys more easily than boys dressing like girls. It goes to show that living authentically in today's world comes with hypocrisies and judgment.

It is heartwarming to see that even when one person is willing to stand with you in public, it makes the biggest impact in our heaviest moments bearable. We see this when Saori quietly steps forward to fix Yoshino’s collar in front of the staring classroom that is silently judging

The finale felt appropriate, a natural end to where the story has been going. All the character arcs came to a uniform end. It is a good anime, I enjoyed it way more than I thought I would. My enjoyment was at 4/10, actively wanting to stop in the beginning. Towards the end, between episodes 8 and 11, I started enjoying it; by the last episode, my enjoyment rose to 7/10. Sadly, because of the start, I have to give it a 6.5/10. There was a lot of change in this anime, a lot of it I didn't see coming. It's an interesting watch

This episode was very interesting. It delved into the different gender dynamics. It was vexing to see how they treated Shuichi compared to the others. I guess as a society we care much more about being boys than girls being girls. This is the first episode that actually got me invested

I find Doi's character very interesting. He adds a level of chaos to the show. He is very different from the rest of the cast, and he pushes the plot in unpredictable ways. The way his character is developing, and his ideas are changing, it's quite the sight to see. This episode feels surprisingly fast or well-paced

It is an interesting episode. I am suspicious of Doi. This brings an element of mystery to the show, which I enjoy. The development of the relationship between Yoshino and Chiba was needed, but I'm sad to see Makoto has basically left the anime, and we never learn much about Momoko or Sasa.
