Owahahhah!! Where did that come from?!?!!? Cold nonchalant and then suddenly a proposal!!? This was some super fast development. Then a wedding!!
This is the most amazing thing I've ever seen hahah. This episode seems like it should be the last one but there's still like 12 more1
I really liked how Chris said Kin was the most handsome and sexiest mas she'd ever seen, lol

Last episode I really hated Chris, and thought she was really ugly and that her voice sounded horrible because she can't talk neither English nor Japanese right, but as soon as she stopped being a threat she suddenly seemed like a much nicer person, I didn't think she looked that ugly anymore and I started noticing Goto Yuko's "real" voice slipping through a lot, so the way she talks also seems much cuter now.

I would seriously turn gay for Naoki.

He has major sex appeal, honestly. How can you turn down a man like that?

i feel somehow relieved for kotoko as naoki finally was able to understand his own feelings towards her!
a lot of touching moments in there...

WTF!? AAAAAAH THEY MARRIED WAY TOO SOON!!!!
... and we're just in the middle of the series, right?
THERE ARE 14 EPISODES LEFT, RIGHT!?

I think this will be the first anime where I can see the girl ACTUALLY get the man and ACTUALLY see what happens AFTER that!
Hahaha. Amazing.

But holy heck! I’ll say it again: TOO SOON.
This marriage was seriously too hurried and unexpected xD
They skipped the whole "Boyfriend & Girlfriend" phase, bwah!
I love Naoki's mom and all, for pushing this cute couple in the right way, but... I really would have preferred to see them married AFTER graduating...

Oh wells! I better not complain ♥

As expected from Naoki's mother. Ever since she first met Kotoko she was eager for her to marry Naoki so naturally when she found out he wanted to marry her, she got it done as soon as possible. I don't really think things progressed to quickly. I've been thinking of Naoki and Kotoko as a couple for a while now. I mean, they act like it quite a bit, with all of their touching moments. Its just that he'd bully her.

Kin's reaction to them getting married was priceless. I knew when Chris met him in the last episode she fell in love with him, but I really hope she just fades away. I'm sick of hearing her broken Japanese and English.

I'm still recovering from the shock. I was waiting all the episode Kotoko to wake up or somebody tell me that it was a joke, but no, it was REAL! :D (But really fast)

I really wonder what will happen next, we have 11 episodes left. I love this haha xD

But yes, I'll have to agree with everyone - It felt really rushed.

Wow, that was one big episode with many stuff to pay-out for all previous boring eps. Wouldn't mind if it would be the end of story, cos it really seems like it. But ok, 11 more episodes of ~after story~ will not hurt...

SO DAMN SWEET!!....amazing episode i laughed and i cried.One of my fave shojo animes [ second time watching it hehe]
Considering the timeline that 14 episodes had to cover it ain't really that rushed.If this anime would have been done in the un-rushed version we'd have 100 episodes till getting here...which would be too annoying...so it didn't really feel rushed.

I've never been so surprised watching an anime in 5 minutes

I'm scared to see what happens. 14 episodes and the guy makes a 180 degree turn? That's way too fast in a 2 cour anime.

Ok wow... I think the beginning of this episode was my favorite !~ The story progressed really fast, but now I wonder what will happen. I like this new Naoki though ~

Chris is not that attractive though and her voice is really bad....oh well !

Chris likes Kin-chan, was that really a surprise to anyone? Kotoko was surprised that Chris seemed to just go by looks, which is stupid considering she is just the same. Actually in the live action adaptation Kin-chan was actually kind of cute, and Naoki was, well, not.
In this world, marriage doesn't seem like a big deal. In any other TV-Show the wedding episode is almost always near the end of the season, but I guess anime is different, I wouldn't know.

Wow I was shocked. Didn't expect that to happen but I'm glad things are moving at this pace. It's annoying when they wait until the last episode just for the couple to finally start dating but here they go even beyond that and go for a wedding.

So things aren't over for Kin. I'm glad this anime decided to not just throw the third wheel out of the story and end up with nothing.

You know, this actually feels like an ending! If the anime concluded here I wouldn't be surprised at all, but thankfully it's still going, yay!

On another note, who was it that said things weren't moving fast enough? Definitely not me ^^ We go from cold jerk to understanding husband in 1 episode lol

They could have used an episode or two to completely flesh out Irie's acknowledge of his love for Kotoko and the marriage. But this way we get to see more of their married life so it's cool.

Also, Irie's mom never skips a beat does she? She's not giving Irie a chance to change his mind xD I loved that ending kiss, finally Kotoko's is showing some spirit!

Irie told her not to count, but that won't stop me.

I have to commend on the mood and the development of this episode. It was the best of the show thus far. Albeit rapid in pace, they were able to sustain the "tension" of the episode as if a roller-coaster ride without digressing too. In the first place, Anime is supposed to be fiction, enjoyable fiction. Wouldn't mind on unrealistic situations and such, as long as I feel the plethora of emotions from within the series, which is commendable in Itazura. It's rare to see an after-marriage romance, so I'll be expecting!

Christine, I'm rooting for you!!! ヽ(*≧ω≦)ノ

If I weren't halfway through, I would have considered dropping this series because of this episode. The only way that could have saved it for me, was seeing Kotoko wake up and realise the last two episodes were nothing but a dream.

The love from Naoki's side hasn't even been developed properly. The only part I liked was how the good guy (Kin) got the good girl (Chris).

I'll finish this anime, but the last two episodes will probably affect my final score.

So you're telling me we get 11 fucking after-wedding episodes?! That's. Fucking. Awesome. Finally a show where it doesn't conclude right when they become a couple. One of the many things I like about Clannad : AS.

That mother is one phenomenon. Marrying them 1-2 days after. Naoki surely had it difficult xD
But Kotoko being bold as fuck was worth it, right Naoki? Now, when are the babies coming?

Chris personnality was damn unexpected. But as soon as she said that she liked another man, I thought ''wait, is it what I'm thinking..?''. Holy shit, that was hilarious. I just imagine her presenting him to her father.

Oh, so Christine actually likes Kinnosuke! And earlier I was joking about them ending up together. Hah!

Wow, this anime is steroids. I've never seen an anime cover so much time in so few episodes. By far the best episode yer and it was actually funny.... probably because they took Irea out of his comfort zone and gave him some facial expressions. I liked it when he had facial expressions.

Was it really 3 1/2 years anime wise?

I know there was one time skip, sure flies by quick. I remember Kotoko talking to Irie for the 1st time, back in ep 1, then fast forward to this episode and we see them get married. I loved how Kotoko steals a kiss from Irie. Rather than screwing up the wedding, she made the wedding worth remembering.


While it was sad to see Kin-chan get rejected, he seemed to be fine. Chris seems like a good match for him.

Holy shit, I couldn't have asked for a better conclusion to this arc, everything solved making sense and without extra drama and a freaking wedding! Maybe it was a bit rushed tho, but I loved the execution.

Now I just need Kin-Chris to be a thing and everything is right in this world, I laughed hard when she lowered a bit her perfection level to trashtalk Kotoko about her taste in guys, hers isn't much better I would say heh.

So basically Irie did a complete 180, is that even the same person!?

Chris really does have a good eye for men, I still can't comprehend what's so good about Irie. And Irie fell in love with a completely useless girl who can't do anything and only ever caused him trouble!?
