The site I am using says that episode 13 is the last, but the encylopedia here is saying one more to be released on the 6th of the 4th (next week). So I will wait to see if does come or not.

Episode 14

Attack on Seki-kun. He sure loves bad guys.

I rate the series Decent, as far as shorts go it is pretty good, but nothing amazing really happens in the series, some rememberable moments but that is it.

Hey I think MAL made a mistake about 14 episodes. They changed it back to 21 episodes. AniChart has an ep 15 countdown on their site.

Poor Yokoi. She's her own worst enemy.

Twas an fun show that could always be relied on to be entertaining, and the format of seven-minute episodes really worked for it.

Ah, in the end, it was a great show with spoiler[Rumi] becoming the victim again in an amusing way. Seki, I will not forget the time you have spent on the show to kill time itself.

Wait, wait, is it over? Did I miss some news or something? Why so randomly in the middle of the season?

The run was expanded from 13 to 21 episodes for reasons unknown.

Yes it is over, according to various sites. I suspect the episode count was decided on budget concerns, as in they kept the show going until the money ran out. It was interesting how some episodes had vastly higher animation quality than others, which might explain why they couldn't quite stretch it out to two full cours.

Very fun and entertaining series but sadly I didn't like the final episode to much.

There really wasn't a sense of closure to be had here. It was just another day. Sadly this makes the show ending even harder.

What kind of closure do you expect from an episodic coemdy series like this?! Seki-kun will continue to play and Yokoi will continue to be equally fascinated and annoyed by his antics and they will live happily ever after (or at least until they graduate or aren't in the same class anymore...).

I loved this series a lot, i wish more of these "shorts" would be creative like this one.
