Seto no Hanayome - 26 (Final)
My tears of joy are right here. My final impression is included!
Summary:
Saru joins Nagasumi and the others on the submarine, as they head into the enemy’s territory. Luna explains the situation to Nagasumi as well, before using her voice to break through the land mines. Inside their cell, Gouzaburou and Maki try their best to break out. Ren attempts to calm them down, but even she feels guilty for letting San get captured. Yoshio explains to his groupies that he plans to marry San, and reminds Akeno of her position. Kai’s submarine finally arrives, crashing into the Minamoto base. Guards quickly arrive to stop them, but Kai’s forces face off against them with the help of Luna’s song.
Yoshio prepares to play with San, but he is stopped by Nagasumi’s entrance. Nagasumi yells for him to return San, but Akeno is called in to face off against him. Unable to defy her orders, she points her sword at Nagasumi. Believing that Nagasumi and San’s relationship was impossible, she tells him to run for his own life. However, Nagasumi reminds her of what she became a swordsman for. With this, she turns around to face Yoshio instead. Yoshio calls out a giant eel to attack them, but Gouzaburou appears to stop it before it can eat Nagasumi.
Yoshio soon leaves, after summoning his followers to take care of the situation. The rest of the Seto family appears to face off against them, and Ren advises Nagasumi to run. Reminded of what San has done for him, Nagasumi instead declares that he will save her. With the help up everyone’s powers, including Luna’s father who appears onto the scene, Nagasumi heads to San. Yoshio begins beating up on Nagasumi as soon as he appears, and reveals the way he subdued San. Nagasumi is unable to get past Yoshio, but he is able to express his feelings for San.
As the ring falls from Nagasumi’s hand, San awakens from his voice. Yoshio prepares to fire at San in her defiance, but Nagasumi steps in front of her. San prepares to give Nagasumi her song, but Yoshio fires at him before this is possible. To his surprise, Nagasumi steps back up. Even without San’s song, Nagasumi gains power just by being her side. Stopping Yoshio’s bullets with his pure power, Nagasumi finishes him off with many strikes in the name of San. Yoshio’s true appearance is revealed in his defeat, ruining him. San beings to apologize to Nagasumi in tears, but he replies by confessing his love and putting the ring on her finger. With this, San agrees as she falls into his arms.
ED: Life goes on as usual, but Nagasumi now has a manly appearance in order to be by San’s side. San also has the shining ring wrapped around her finger. All of the characters are now shown in the original ED.
Impression:
I don’t think it even needs to be said…….ok…….it does. This episode was EPIC. If you can remember the feelings you had when you watched the first climax, this was even better. From the beginning to the end, there were so many awesome moments. Akeno’s fighting against her friends reminded me of a cheesy Chinese drama, but it was great. The Seto family’s entrance had me in absolute joy, and Gouzaburou’s acceptance of Nagasumi just added to that. I was almost afraid that San was going to save Nagasumi again after she woke up, but they didn’t screw it up. His transformation was well deserved, as he finally protected San as necessary. I loved how the ring played a part in all of this. That and Nagasumi’s will to save San almost had me in tears. I think Seto no Hanayome’s perfect placements of jokes in the middle of the drama prevented that though. The final impression is up next, and I think you know what I’m going to say.
Seto no Hanayome is definitely one of the biggest surprises of the past two seasons, and a very pleasant one at that. When I first started blogging this, I almost dropped it out of boredom. I’m glad I didn’t. Ironically, this show quickly picked up to become my favorite love comedy of season. Now that it is over, it wouldn’t be a stretch to call this one of my favorite love comedies of all time. Almost every episode had me laughing until my sides hurt, and I was left breathless after episodes like the finale. That’s not to say that some episodes were a bit on the low side, but I quickly forgave that when I saw the roles they played in episodes following.
There’s just no other show that made me lose my senses so much, as this anime really made me want to scream out “moe” like a ranging otaku fanboy. This is credited to the great character development from all of the characters. Just like the series itself, I found most of the characters annoying at first, but grew to love all of them. That’s the joy of this show. If anyone is reading this and is iffy about picking up Seto no Hanayome after a first impression, please give it a try. You will be very surprised. Who would have ever thought that I could love a Gonzo show so much? More love comedies please!

cant wait for the subbed eps. Seto no Hanayome is probably the best show in summer season for me. it ended, no more San-chan for me u_u.
i admit im a little picky when it comes to anime but this one is exceptional in some way or another i guess. i was not bored in any episode of this series as it was really funny and entertaining. thanks to all the subbers. ^_____________^
Well, this show is truly amazing
who’ve could have guessed that Gonzo which known for its action anime, can also make a show like this,spending two whole season of laughing is sure a nice experience :p
also the way how they put all the action and climax at the end of the series.
the series sure deserve for a hall of fame ^_^
This episode was fantastic. It has a shot at a second season!
Can´t say anything else about this episode as of yet since i´m still enjoying the afterglow of it.
So it ends. Yeah it was so EPIC. Everything was good. This is my favorite love comedy. Its a shame it had to end. Why? We all hope that there is a movie and a season2
That would be nice. My word is good enough to describe this show, NO words aren’t good enough to describe this show. This show never fail to surprise me with it scenes,background music,plots and climax. This was one heck of a show. Yeah I remember when this show was boring at first but it got amazing after a while. Well it was a really good show.
To Totali: What is your favorite LOVE COMEDY?
One of the best. I knew I loved this show when Nagasumi bit into the “choco-banana” and it was a loaded gun with his finger on the trigger. What else can I say? It’s a good show.
Same as Rentingon, i was hooked so bad after ep 2 =P so sad it’s ended now. wait for season 2 !! =D
wow when i finished the only words that came to my head was EPIC…i see im not the only one…great ending
So ends my favorite love comedy of all time. You will be missed. Second Season!!!!
Well basically everyone whos commented said it all. This is prolly one of the greatest (if not the best) anime I’ve ever seen ever! Now that its over i think im gona start crying T_T I’ll never forget this anime and I know that when I get older I can always look back at these amazing episodes! In my opinion this anime has a huge chance of getting a season 2 and maybe even a movie, but really amazing job to gonzo and still looking forward to that well deserved season 2!
Something about Nagasumi in hero mode is beyond lulz.
It’s so random he’s in that form I can’t help but laugh my ass off.
Oh my God, it’s over.
I…can’t help but feel sad. ;_; On the upside, this episode was EPIC!
I will definitely miss this show T_T
SAN-CHAAAANNN….. T_T
I actually wish they save the biggest laugh for the last epicode. Though it didn’t met my expectation, this episode still greatly amuse me in different way.
I can’t believe you guys are still going on about a second season and movie! I would love that, but do you really think it’s likely? Ah~ I miss San already.
Sniper > I dunno. Love Hina and DearS definitely hold special places on my list. Seto is way up there right now though.
I love Nagasumi’s heroic look at the end, made me laugh so hard it hurts and the sudden change of his voice is funny. haha
Nuuuu… I really hope there is a second season. Not once did Nagasumi kiss San or anybody besides Masa san… Why must it end like that? Nuu I shudder to think there will be no second season… BUT I will not lose hope. Puttin that aside, I love this show!! Plz let there be a Second Season!! … hmm a Movie don’t sound half-bad either…
PS… the supposed CPR kiss don’t count ppl… Nagasumi was out cold.
[…] wasn’t a pure GONZO effort (AIC was given equal billing) and Totali and suguru enjoyed Seto but I was still apprehensive. No disrespect, guys, but Totali’s love […]
From started till the end i never seen these kid kiss
it’s such a pure love
i totally expect it to happen
so depress
