Da Capo Second Season 9
Quickly since I'm behind here.... So Nemu and Jun'ichi still can't make up with each other. When Jun'ichi apologizes Nemu seems happy but when he tells her that Aishia's there because she was going to see Sakura's grandmother, Nemu starts yelling -- Sakura's grandmother isn't hers, she says... The next day Aishia runs into a very familiar looking face in a park -- not Yoriko, but Yoriko's owner, Misaki. She talks about Nemu and Jun'ichi, saying much the same thing that Kotori said, and also tells Aishia about the magical sakura tree...
A very excited Miharu goes out with Nemu in the morning to eat.. banana-based things, of course... and have some fun. Meanwhile, Aishia and Jun'ichi go out walking around then go to the big sakura tree to have a picnic. Pretty soon Miharu comes running up with Nemu... It was a set up, and Miharu and Aishia leave the two alone, running after Utamaru as an excuse to go... So now that Nemu and Jun'ichi are finally alone with each other they start to talk about things, about all that's happened to them underneath the big sakura tree. Jun'ichi also talks about Sakura's grandmother and all she did to support Jun'ichi when Nemu had just moved in with him and how much she cared for her. Jun'ichi once again promises to protect Nemu like he did before under the tree, and the two become lovers once again.
Nice last episode, wasn't it? With Nemu and Jun'ichi getting together again and everybody happy it certainly seemed like things could end now. But one storm past and another certain to come sometime later... As Shuten mentioned, perhaps there's more to Nemu's decision to leave Hatsunejima two years ago than we thought. And things will get interesting when Sakura finally shows up, supposedly sometime next month according to rumors. I was fully expecting Sakura this time, but it was a very nice surprise to see Misaki this time, though it's too bad that it seems like it was for this episode only. I've gotten to liking Aishia again over the past few episodes as I've mentioned. This Aishia is much better than the "goshujin-sama" of before Nemu showed up. Very cute and a very good girl :)
Speaking of Aishia, she'll be playing a big role in the next few episodes as we introduce the DCPS (Da Capo Plus Situation) characters. Should be fun :) Though we'll see how long a break from all the angst we get here.
Well I must admit that while I was hoping Sagisawa Misaki would appear at some point I certainly wasn't expecting it to be in the way it occured. I just hope it was more than just a brief guest appearance. Still here's hoping Sakura will appear at some point.
Anyways this episode definitely does give us a good idea of the real reason Nemu left and it wasn't simply to advance her education. It would seem the events from the first season had more of an effect on her than anyone thought.
Still it is good that she's finally coming to terms with things and that the two, Jun'ichi and Nemu, have worked things out. Anyways I enjoyed the episode and look forward to learning more about the *DCPS* Girls from episode 10 onward. ^^
