「ドーナツ」 (Donatsu)
“Donuts”
I’ve been pretty pessimistic that this series had any chance of a sequel, but the signals on that are perhaps a little more mixed than they have been.

「16時の書庫」 (16-Ji no shoko)
“4 O’Clock Library”
I could say everything or nothing about this episode – I have a half-page of notes in front of me I could refer to, but all that really need be said is that it was a masterpiece.

「ミサキ階段 其の二」 (Kokuhaku no ki)
“Confession Tree”
We really are still at the tip of the iceberg stage – which makes the fact that the series is almost half-finished that much more distressing.

「ミサキ階段 其の二」 (Misaki kaidan sono ni)
