Rinne no Lagrange – 12.5 (OVA)
「鴨川デイズ」 (Kamogawa Deizu)
“Kamogawa Days”
Welcome back to Kamogawa, circa the time between Season 1 and Season 2. Let’s take a little trip down memory lane…though first, I feel I should mention who should watch this.

「今日もまた, 鴨川で」 (Kyou mo Mata, Kamogawa de)
“Another Day in Kamogawa”
A wonderful ending. It was idealistic, it was upbeat, it was heart-warming, and it was full of wishes realized, friendships renewed, and a bright future ahead for everyone involved. Perfect. Maru~!
「鴨川の海の向こう側」 (Kamogawa no Umi no Mukougawa)
“Beyond the Seas of Kawogawa”
Emotions clash as the world rests on the edge of oblivion, with only three young girls in a position to save it. Maybe.
「裏切りの空ほ鴨川」 (Uragiri no Soraho Kamogawa)
“Betrayal Over The Skies of Kamogawa”
Madness, betrayal, and death. If you’ve already watched this episode then this goes without saying, but shit just got serious. Oh man did it ever.
「白の鴨川」 (Shiro no Kamogawa)
“A White Kamogawa”
I thought this was going to be a pretty light-hearted episode, yet indecision, sad partings, and serious problems were the order of the day, as we quickly ramp up to the conflict that will end this series…with a bang, by the looks of it.
「鴨川アドバルーン」 (Kamogawa Ado Baruun)
“Kamogawa Balloons”
Full on slice-of-life mode engage! The cute-and-entertaining hijinks were at full power as Madoka & co try to save the Jersey Club, yet it was the subtle, side elements that were most intriguing to me. And then there was that stuff at the end. Wait, is that…!?
「鴨川の誓の」 (Kamogawa no Seino)
“A Vow to Kamogawa”
Rinne no Lagrange can be very idealistic, and this is not a bad thing. This episode did a good job of mixing the idealistic, I-wish-it-worked-this-way-in-real-life moments with hints of something altogether darker. Also, I still have no idea how this series will end…and I couldn’t be happier! Oh man, I wonder, I wonder…
「鴨川にも届け, この声」 (Kamogawa ni mo Todoke, Kono Koe)
“May This Voice Reach Kamogawa”
So much of fiction is about miscommunication. Here, it’s not the zany miscommunication of a romcom, but rather the tragic miscommunication of unknown threats, unsolvable problems, colliding crises, and feelings revealed far too late.
「鴨川上空衛星軌道にて・夏」 (Kamogawa Jouku Eisei Nite – Natsu)
“In Orbit Above the Summer Skies of Kamogawa”
Dizelmine reveals his true plans, Lan and Muginami perform a daring escape, and Madoka faces off with Yurikano…with a twist.
「再会の街、鴨川」 (Saikai no Machi, Kamogawa)
“A Reunion in Kamogawa”
It’s interesting how, if you change the circumstances of a conflict just slightly, the side that looks like the bad guys can change completely. Where before it was definitely Dizelmine, now Villagulio is beginning to look like the king who will drive their planets to war.
