Summary:
Kofujiwara Wabisuke wants to take Naeka and Kousuke out so he can be next in line for the inheritance, and he has his Kogarashi-esque maid Hyochuka plan an attack on Zenjuro’s 70th birthday. For some reason Shizuku and Tsurara are working with Hyochuka, and they are able to snatch Naeka and Kousuke right before the end of the party. Unfortunately, the ninja maids actually captured Naeka and Kousuke’s stunt doubles (Fubuki and Kogarashi), and Kogarashi quickly turns the tables.
Before Kogarashi can question the ninja maids, however, Hyochuka blows on her one-time-use Maid Guy Whistle to neutralize Kogarashi, allowing her dolls to skewer Kogarashi and throw him to the ground. Things look bad, but Fubuki buys time and Naeka manages to get Kogarashi to wake up. Revived, Kogarashi goes berserk, but Hyochuka manages to get away to fight another day.
Reaction:
What the hell, this was such a boring and disappointing finale. Who knew that a return to the overarching storyline would turn out to be so bland. The only part I even smiled at was when Zenjuro wanted to jail and deport the ambassador that was trying to fondle Naeka.
There were very few amusing moments in this episode, but at least Fubuki fans were treated to extended Fubuki fight scenes (and even a Fubuki doppelganger). I noticed a “Kukuku-hahaha” at one point (while Kogarashi was disguised as Kousuke), which I found strange. I’m not sure what else to say about this episode, and I probably should have stopped watching this series after episode 10.

Just as kukuku.
This episode wouldn’t have been as disappointing if there was news of another 12 episodes… Oh wait, one more extra unaired hot springs episode? Well, I guess we’ll have to take what we can get. (Kukuku)
I really love this anime. EPIC~ :blank:
I basically watched this show for Kogarashi, so this finale was fine for me. I guess it shows where our priorities lay.
How long have you been waiting to bust that one out?
