| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- I personally thought the ending was good. While it didn't put any kind of end to Rin's sexual behaviour, it certainly made sure that Aoki now knows how to handle it, and Reiji too has also learned a bit more. Also liked that Reiji heard what Aoki said, meaning that his suspicions went away, and so did Aoki's. But still, Rin might need help, like.. Professional D: That kind of behaviour is not right. So I would actually have liked it if they somehow came up with what is going to happen about that... Can't be healthy for a kid to be like that. |
| great reiji came back from the dark side. and Rin wait till she grow up to do more ecchi stuffs :) |

| I totally underestimated this series. And for a nonconlcusive conclusion, it went over well. ...Rin might need help, like.. Professional D: That kind of behaviour is not right. So I would actually have liked it if they somehow came up with what is going to happen about that... Can't be healthy for a kid to be like that. ^agreed. |
 |
| Well I just finished the series, thought it was wonderful. I really felt I underestimated it as I watched more episodes. The ending did its job and gave a well organized ending with the perfect mood I wanted. |
[right] |

| Loli's FTW This series was so amazing!! characters were great, and the girls were so cute! |
 |
| kokonoe has to be perv always TT-TT reiji is so crazy more and more he scares me TT kokonoe has to be with aokiiiiii TT |
 |
| Nice ending!!! Never awaited this kind of ending. It really managed to tie up all the lose strands we had here and there! Really was something really outstanding... And like many of you I also underestimated the series... It is really good. It has a completely fleshed out characters and also a nice plot and obviously lots of drama mixed with some ecchi here and some comedy there By the way talking about comedy, Houin-sensei realizing that Shirai-sensei is also at the competition for Aoki's heart made me laugh so much... but definitely the cat sending the message and Mimi's weird antics to try to be likable to Aoki cracked me up XD And so Reiji went deeper into the Dark side and little by little came back... Rin's tic (making paper cranes) and psycho look returned! WOhooo! And i was really afraid that she killed Reiji... but hey that somehow managed to snap Reiji off the Dark side and at the same time made a way for Aoki's redemption... I was glad that Reiji finally got that Aoki is there fro Rin too! Great series... deserves a 9 or even a 10... I'll give it a 9 'cause it really has some themes hard to deal with... Signs, Green |

| Wow all in all, I was very pleasantly surprised with how well this anime turned out to be. I came in on random recommendation, found it hard to stop watching with outrageously inappropriate lure, but them somewhere along the line I found myself incredibly compelled by the story beyond the loli. I was expecting a little more from the ending but it was solid and sweet. Glad things got straightened out between Aoki and Reiji. I can see why he has so uneasy about his little Rin being so close to Sensei, but he was getting way overboard and if a little girl taking a pair of scissors to him was what it took to snap him out of it then so be it. I know it is not right to want or hope for the lolilove between Rin and Aoki-sensei... but I honestly hope things stay the way they are between them and glad they got to be together again ^^. Rin needs a caring nurturing older male figure to love and give her the attention she craves, even if she gets carried away with it ;P, and I think Rin is very good for Aoki for so many reasons (not sexual lol). Besides, I think if it was a real problem, when Aki came back to reassure Reiji, she would of said something about it lol. I can't believe I would give a 9 to something so easy to throw around loli, but I can honestly say it was that good. I will start the OVAs or maybe straight to 2nd Term tomorrow I am not ready to say goodbye to Rin-chan yet, just hoping they manage to make a real impact and wrap it up well in the very short season 2. Kodomo no Jikan... Kokonoe... you have my love ^^. |

| Who would have thought that beneath the meaningless loli fanservice, some sort of story actually sprang up? From Reiji losing both of his parents, to him having a relationship with Aki, and finally her death, there were lots of emotional development. Due to the childhood trauma Reiji and Rin had, the two often acted possessively. This served as the base of the conflict. In the end nothing is truly resolved - everyone is forgiven, things returned to the way it once was. And as far as Rin's behavior is concerned, her actions are a bit over the top sometimes. But because of her family background, I wouldn't blame her for relying and caring for someone else. Enough said, I'm glad to have watched the glorious uncut version of this series ^_^ After all, that is why I picked up the series in the first place... Now, on to the many OVAs as well as season 2 |
 |
| Nice! I suddenly remembered I hadnt finished this series so just caught the last one now, and pleasntly pleased! I read the manga so the plot is no suprise to me, but I was wondering how they'd tie it up for a series end. Pretty well done! Right...is is OVA's now or S2, gonna have to check! |
 |
| Just had a chance to finish this anime. The ending is *really* good. I thought that this anime would be only comady/loli side, and didn't expect this kind of drama at all. They've done well. Oh wait, I did regretted that I shouted 'YES!' when Kokonoe holding a scissors though. Kinda feel like he deserved it. Oh well ... |
 Toshino Kyoko!!! |
| Geez, Reiji turned into a creep for a while there! Glad he regained some sense. Pretty good ending, it seems like like Rin matured a lot since the beginning. I wish there was a little more interaction with Houin-sensei... |
| El Psy Congroo まだまだだね!!! |
 してくださいは、後ろに私を残していない • Absolutely loved the ending :) |
| I loved the comparison between Reiji and Rin being treated badly, and how Reiji realized he was acting as indifferent towards his child as his mother. The ending was pretty good :D glad I watched~ |

 |
| Reiji's story is a bit... Wrong. It would've been better if his relationship with Aki was more sibling-like. But that's just my opinion. Anyways, it ended well, best part was that Kura stopped thinking that Aoki was some sort of Loli. But I hope someday Aoki manages to make Rin that it's not right to act like a whore, even though she's a kid if he doesn't do anything it won't be good for her when she's older. Who else can teach that better than your crush? |
| A very lovely ending I must say that rounded off the story quite nicely, while there's still room for improvements the cuteness of the ero loli's and just the whole facts of loli vs teacher was pretty nice to see. What I definitely didn't expect is to have some really strong dramatic parts in it, and well I sure liked them in how they were created almost perfectly and how well they fitted in the overall story! A great anime in general and well I still can't get enough of that ED! |
 |
| So wrong, but oh so right. This ended up being a solid anime, very funny and enjoyable all around. 8/10 |
| Respect for having guts to tell a story like this, hover on borderline pedophilia, and not make me feel uncomfortable even once. 8/10 |
| That was the most surprisingly good show I've seen in a long time. I decided to watch it on a whim.....and boy am I glad that I did. Seriously......who would have thought this was going to have a good story? 8/10 |
 |
| Befor i watched this series i had no prior knowledge of it..so by the time i finished it i was shocked by lol how good it was...with all the lolicon stuff aside i found the series more about having good morals instead of everything else...but with that said i feel the teacher fell in love with someone he could not have even after trying no to. so what do you all think? this is my first discussion post so be nice please. |
| Soooo in the end she got a handshake Get sensei ZONED all and all good and felt very mature and drama filled was looking for a laittle more light hearted but it was really good lol mimi is cute |
 |
| I really liked this show, 8/10. Made me laugh a lot when I was watching. |

| The ending was meh and rushed And the kind of relationship between Sensei and Rin got more uncertain/confused with this episode. I mean, a handshake and: "Let's just have a normal relationship now, ok?" Well, it's not like I want them to be together, but to fight over something for about 12 episodes then just throw it into the air like nothing happened is really cruel with us, isn't it? Anyway, I hope that this is not the case. Still, I have doubts about giving this show a 7 or an 8 due to what I said above. PS: Reiji best character. ;) |

| I was afraid for a bit when Reiji wanted to transfer her somewhere else, it all ended well, I loved it. |
 |
| Well, all I can say is, sucks for anyone who dropped at ep 3 and 4 because the tonal shift halfway through was a big (and not unwelcome) surprise. Way more drama and social commentary than I was expecting. While it seemed a bit too rushed and melodramatic early on, after ep 6 this series really found a nice pace. Glad to say I enjoyed it quite a bit, for more than just the controversy and fan service! 8/10 |
 |
| Okay, so in the end nothing really changed so where is the moral of the drama? I don't think this was bad closing episode per se and their handshake was great scene but it all concluded way open-ended. No resolution for Reiji, no happy-end for Houin-sensei, still no respect and no lesson-learnt for Aoki-sensei (who is the same pushover as in the beginning) and Rin still hasn't changed her attitude towards him at all. It was interesting journey but we basically stopped half-way through. So, unless the following OVAs conclude it well, I can't see any real worth in this. Yes, it was enjoyable, there were some really good scenes showing the needs of children and the drama was good but too much of lolicon sometimes (and it wasn't even necessary, actually would be a lot better without it). 6/10 |
| Didn't expect for this anime to be good... I was expecting for this anime to be a pure Ecchi anime without plot, and then after conquering the first three episodes it turns out to be a good anime, making the fanservice leave and continue with a drama. The series isn't that bad, it is all about family and emotional issues... Just give it a chance and understand the whole plot and dont just focus on some pointless fanservice. |
 |
| I liked this ending. The problem I had throughout the show was the attempt to justify Rin's behavior as outside of her, ie. simply because her mother died. She's a sociopath, and that can't just be because of Reiji either. Speaking of Reiji, his story was interesting and more understandable, especially how he thought Rin was going to become 'like him.' Whether it was his own fear that built up that image or not, it was somewhat chilling. Rin needs some real help though. That scene where she almost pushed Houin-sensei off the stairs can't be brushed away. As much as it seems like she's made progress, she's got issues. Also, having Aoki appear to be a lolicon in some scenes, and ignorant of Rin's intent in other scenes was weird. |

| I agree with a lot of people here. I didn't expect to much at first, just a lot of Ecchi stuff without any sort of story, but I was wrong. And now I'm glad I was wrong. I liked the ending. At least the twist between Aoki and Reiji got solved and Rin can normally go to school and have fun. Just to bad that Houin got cockblocked so often haha. Maybe in the OVA's she gets a better chance? Can't wait to see what will happen there. |
 |
| At least he saved Rin from Reiji...xD well it was a good conclusion for this anime I guess, overall fine stuff but it was too overdramatic sometimes + the mix between "borderline" ecchi stuff and serious moments just felt weird, one of the weirdest anime I've ever watched I think xD 6/10 |
 |
| Yeah, Reiji, you're not hearing Rin's voice yourself.. How you wanted for others to hear your own voice before.. Please hear voice of Rin too.. Well, overall.. I think it's right that this anime isn't tagged as romance.. As it wasn't romance anime, in my feel.. It was something like girl with her school crush on teacher.. And new teacher dealing with teaching problems.. Then also some drama around families backstories.. I think that's what anime was about.. I only also have to watch OVAs too.. |
| My 56th completed series chronologically. For the record, I extended it an 8/10 rating. |
| I'm glad I watching this 'till the end, people really are missing up the good family story and teacher's issue with little girls. Too bad the season 2 got axed... so it's time for me to read the manga (I love some fanservices myself, Mimi is such a cutie :D) |
| That was unexpectedly good. Would’ve rated it higher if it didn’t have fan service of literal 3rd graders |
under”Mebius” is my salvation  |
the series was way better than i remembered. its serious, emotional and disgustingly hilarious. its sad that many ignore this show because its "creepy" or whatever they just cant handle fiction and have missed out on a great story. ill definetly try reading the manga at somepoint |

| Touching but badly chewed ending. Drawing a summary, Aoki has gotten some decent consistent character development all throughout the show in his journey as a teacher. Kokonoe's character development was mostly stunted throughout, treading same rakes over and over until the "kind" conversation with Houin-sensei. Reiji has sadly gotten the short end of the stick. Felt like very rushed screenwriting. He was first established with a rich touching backstory. Depicted as a good responsible dad throughout. Except for the implied suspicions of hidden domestic abuse, which didn't pan out. But in the latter episodes they suddenly threw a crazy arc onto him, even though none of it was in fact required to justify his actions and concerns. In the end, we don't even get to see him recover to his saner old self. Which, even aside from his person, is quite important for Kokonoe's parenting and wellbeing overall. Bit unsatisfied with Houin staying the butt of the romance joke. So I'm a bit bummed for the sake of Reiji, but otherwise, what a blast the show was! This show definitely has some things to say. Of pedagogy and parenting, of censorship and stigma, of human relationships and general psychology. |
