「日常２６」 (Nichijou 26)
"My Ordinary Life 26"
It takes something special to give a series a good ending episode -- especially for series longer than one-cour and this last episode of Nichijou didn't just push the envelope. It stared at that envelope, ripped it in half, ate the pieces, and then lit itself on fire in order to make sure that there was no trace of an envelope.

「魔神の落胤」 (Satan no Ko)
"Satan's Children"
It’s pretty easy to see what cards everyone is holding as we get set for next week’s anime-only finale of Ao no Exorcist, but there’s still a wild card – or perhaps it’s a joker - that’s yet to be played. And I suspect that as he goes, so goes the battle.

「君と僕と彼女のこと」 (Kimi to Boku to Kanojo no Koto)
"You, Me, and For Her Sake"
I don't know what the point of luring out your enemies is if you don't fully intend to have fun with it. When Hakamizaka was threatening to "fly away" if Narumi wasn't fast enough to catch him, I didn't expect him to be flying away on drugs.

「ほのかに白い終業式」 (Honoka ni Shroi Shuugyoushiki)
"Pale White Graduation"
For its final episode, Itsuka Tenma went out on a really high note. Not only was there the perfect balance between fanservice and character building, but if the story had been at this point about six episodes ago, it felt like the perfect jumping off point before a big, badass arc.
