「年の計は元旦にあるらしい」 (Toshi no Kei wa Gantan ni Arurashii)
“Start Planning Your Year From New Year’s Day”
Well, that was surely one of the more random episodes of Minami-ke ever.

「(鈴ちゃんが幸せならわたしも幸せだから」 (Rin-chan ga Shiawase nara Watashi mo Shiawase dakara)
“If You’re Happy, Rin-chan, Then I’m Happy Too”
It’s always interesting with a conspiracy tale like this one to wonder whether the style of the series has changed, or just the way I perceive it.

「さしもしらじな もゆるおもひを」 (Sashi mo Shirajina mo Yuru Omohi o)
“I Feel As Though My Body is on Fire with Ibuki Mugwort”
Chihayafuru is definitely proving its versatility this season, but I wonder if it isn’t coming at just a bit of a cost.
Zetsuen no Tempest – 23

「(はじまりの戦い」 (Hajimari no Tatakai)
“The Battle of Genesis”
I think any worries that Zetsuen no Tempest would slip out of character and go for a subtle, understated ending can safely be set aside…

「聖なる夜、神は舞い降りる」 (Seinaru Yoru Kami wa Maioriru)
“The Goddess Descends on the Holy Night
It seems as if you can always count on Christmas for an appearance by Hosaka.

「あなたの大切なもののために」 (Anata no Taisetsu na Mono no Tame ni)
“For What You Find Important”
Ah, Kud-o – superficially you may seem like a moeblob at first glance, but there’s no one else quite like you. Kudryavka strike box!!

「むらさめの」 (Murasame no)
“Rain Takes Longer to Dry”
Well, Team Chihayafuru managed to drag out the much-anticipated meeting at least one more week.

「わたし、必ず戻ってきます (Watashi, Kanarazu Modotte Kimasu/i>)
“I’ll Definitely Come Back
In summing up my thoughts about this episode, I can do no better than to quite Riki himself: “What was that??”

「エコライフはじめました」 (Eco-Raifu wa Hajimemashita)
“I’ve Started Living Green”
The only thing I don’t love about this superb season of Minami-ke is that it’s already almost over.

「わたのはら」 (Wata no Hara)
“My Only Thought”
To say that this episode was a long time coming may be an understatement, but it definitely proved worth the wait.
