Such a fulfilling finale. When Juna Shiratori arrives in a duck costume and chomps Tsukasa’s head lol

Tsukasa dreams he nails a jump only to crash - this is what I wanted! Some character growth!

Well, what do you know, the harness worked.

When Kakeru Uobuchi arrives with that harness of his ... IDK man, at first I thought this made sense, but on a rewatch, it's so out of pocket.

Naoi’s hypnosis unlocking Otonashi’s painful memories hit me in the feels. This was so angsty yet so wholesome. Who wouldn't want a close person to

Otonashi bonding with Kanade was a sweet moment this series really needed. Never too late for a bit of sugar in your coffee!

The Mapo Tofu coupon heist was hilarious. This really worked tonally for me.

Hm, I'm not sure the combination of slapstick comedy and regret works here. Yui’s chaotic audition sees her literally kick the microphone into the

Takeyama gets to finally show off his hacking skills! Seriously underrated character!
