I'm sorry to hear that you've gone through a similar experience, I can imagine that I too would prefer not to be put in the same position :(

Spoiler:
This is how I look at it, from the perspective of a person watching anime. The two big outcomes that could have happened were: Yuuta gets evicted, and he and the girls have to find a new place to live on top of maintaining a healthy lifestyle; Yuuta does not get evicted, and he and the girls still have to maintain a healthy lifestyle. If he had to be evicted, there would be an episode where they all moved, the audience hates the landlord forever, everyone moves on. If he doesn't get evicted, skip the moving episode, the landlord isn't completely hated, everyone moves on.

Yes, you are correct that, statistically, people who have been in the position to be evicted probably are unlikely to have that decision rescinded. However, being unlikely does not make it any less realistic. I guess this is the point I was trying to get across. I feel that I did not have to go through any suspension of belief in order to process the end result. With your own experiences, though, I do understand that this isn't true of all viewers.

...and this is what makes watching shows and discussing them so much fun, the back-story of each person watching is always going to be different and therefore resulting in a different viewing experience.

I didn't get that at all...

Anyway, Episode 11 was great, but a more depressing sort of episode.

Don't worry, neither did I.

It was, but I'm sure everything will be all happy again by the next episode.

I thought it was the finale as well, til I saw the "episode 13 coming soon" on CR and saw it was 26.

That could've worked very well as an ending tho, great episode.
Spoiler:
So he's now their guardian legally, and I'm assuming that was their old house they moved into.

I thought Yuuta was seriously proposing to Raika there. I was all, "that's rather sudden" but I'd be behind it 100%. I hope it does happen farther in the series.

-------
Now I see Ocean saying it was cut down... now I gotta go find out for sure.

Seriously? Because it is at least 1 more episode, unless crunchyroll was wrong :P

I'm leaning towards CR being wrong. I've got 2 ANN articles that make note of CR saying 26, while others say 12+1 unaired episode. "Others" being the official site (I'm assuming referring to the JP one) and Sentai Filmworks, who licenced it.

http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/20 ... ther-anime
http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/20 ... ed-episode

All I could make out myself from the Google-translated official site is that BluRay vol 5 will have an unaired 13th episode, which at least implies that's the end, if not guaranteeing it.

I can't actually find anything that says it was supposed to be 26, than cut. Just conflicting information.

Well, CR doesn't normally air unaired episodes, so i don't think it's that.

Well, if it's the final episode, it ended in a good way, but I'm gonna hope that it somehow has more episodes

I cried so much this episode ~
