Well, once again the anime world confirms that I shouldn't get attached to the characters. sighs

We got a bittersweet ending that was totally worth it. You really have to watch it episode by episode and give each one its time, because otherwise, you'll reach this final episode and won't feel emotionally connected if you weren't paying attention before.

In short, you could say this ended as a redemption for Hagino.

And now, what am I supposed to do with this existential dread? Haha, matane minna-san.
