Random Curiosity

「私たちの輝き」 (Watashitachi no Kagayaki)
“Our Own Radiance”

I think everyone found exactly what they were looking for. Also, if you didn’t cry during this episode we’re not friends anymore.

「光の海」 (Hikari no Umi)
“Sea of Light”

I can’t believe it’s almost all over. Silent Cherry Blossom Nightmare.

「浦の星女学院」 (Uranohoshi Jogakuin)
“Uranohoshi Girls’ High School”

With only a few episodes left, I’m starting to feel physically ill as I think about how little time we have left with our Aqours girls.

「シャイニーを探して」 (Shainii wo Sagashite)
“Finding a Way to Shine”

Sunshine is starting to get really emotional.

「Awaken the power」 (Awaken the power)
“Awaken the Power”

God, this episode had me tearing up more than I thought it would.

「HAKODATE」 (HAKODATE)
“HAKODATE”

God, I can’t get enough of this slightly darker and more serious tone that Sunshine has been adamantly been pushing on us.

「残された時間」 (Nokosareta Jikan)
“Remaining Time”

Everything I’ve watched today has been a god damn emotional rollercoaster.

「Aqours WAVE」 (Aqours WAVE)
“Aqours WAVE”

Compared to last season, I think I’m in love with how the show is handling its pacing.

「犬を拾う。」 (Inu wo Hirou.)
“Taking In a Dog.”

While we may have lost one of the funniest jokes due to character development, there’s something extremely rewarding about seeing Riko conquer her fear of dogs.

「ダイヤさんと呼ばないで」 (Daiya-san to Yobanaide)
“Don’t Call Me Dia-San”

I’ve never really liked Dia because it felt like she was being a prude for the sake of being a prude. After this week’s episode, I can truly say that I’ve come around and can now fondly watch Dia’s character with a smile on my face.

「虹」 (Niji)
“Rainbow”

It’s about time Aqours found a miracle.

「雨の音」 (Ame no Oto)
“The Sound of Rain”

If this is the direction Sunshine wants to go in, I’m totally down for it.

「ネクストステップ」 (Nekusuto Steppu)
“Next Step”

If there’s one thing that Sunshine knows how to do, it’s how to create conflict and how to make our girls go from 100 to 0 in an instant.

「サンシャイン!!」 (Sansyain!!)
“Sunshine!!”

This week’s episode was rather bittersweet for me. Bittersweet solely for the fact that even though I want a second season, I think things ended so well that I think I could be satisfied even without one.

「はばたきのとき」 (Habataki no Toki)
“It’s Time To Fly”

After the second year’s slight stumble last week, this week’s episode did a great job at not only turning that around but using everything that’s happened thus far to give us one hell of a payoff. Also, I would have named this episode “OH MY GOD” if I was given the opportunity. #ITJOKE
