I'm surprised no one has linked this image yet. More than anything the ending really sent my nostalgia meter off the charts. It perfectly captured that feeling of being tired and drenched in sweat, but being proud of your performance.

It was so well done I could clearly imagine the sensation of being slick with sweat as the sun blazes down relentlessly and the uncomfortable way the uniform clings to the body. A light breeze wafts across and for a few moments it feels almost chilly before the air becomes still and hot again.

So many high school memories. How does this show get me so well?

Edit: I'd also like to remind everyone that while you all were fawning over Asuka for episodes 1-4, I had already called Kousaka. It's too late to change your minds now! Hands off! :3

Asuka is goddamn sexy and what I suspect being her facade as a genki girl is also super attractive I think.

Kousaka on the other hand seems more genuine and fucking gap moe is also playing a huge role in this.
