Fighting is so immature, let's settle our differences with a nice long talkSummary
Taking off straight from last episode, Benika and Yayoi re-enter the Kuhouin estate after realise that Shinkurou took off on his own. They soon meet Lin, who I maintain is insane. To once again prove that she's insane, she smashes a hole in the driver side window of Benika's Maserati as it speeds past.
Power windows are for the weakSoon, there is a Bond style car chase complete with knobs and lever that active hidden devices whose purpose remain just as hidden. As far as I saw, those levers and buttons may as well have being for the air conditioning, they didn't do anything!
Meanwhile, Shinkurou arrives in the inner sanctuary to be confronted by Renjou. Renjou tells Shinkurou to leave if he doesn't want to die, instead, Shinkurou rejects that idea saying he will listen to Murasaki's true feelings and act accordingly. Aww... love is wonderful isn't it? Before their conversation could continue, Benika and Lin mistook the inner sanctuary for a drive thru which resulted in Lin's car plowing through the wall and into a pond. Benika on the other hand, with her uber hax driving skillz, turns the house into a parking lot.
Thank god for air bagsShinkurou and Benika then proceeded to Murasaki's room, meeting Ryuuji once again, while Yayoi stayed to have a re-rematch with Lin. How does Lin manage to finally beat the crazy Chinese chick that has thus far kicked her ass twice? Obviously by using the Houzuki style that she managed to learn from brief practice fight with Shinkurou. The Houzuki style is a fighting style with no stance, ie making stuff up as you go. Apparently, it is truly imba as Yayoi convincingly beat Lin and Shinkurou using the same style beat Ryuuji. Considering the easy at which they won, it's a real wonder why they didn't just start off with that style.
Anyway, Renjou and Kazuko arrive on the scene and begins the 10min long intellectual debate that will entertain us for the rest of the episode. In a nutshell, because I really can't be bothered elaborating, Murasaki decided to leave the inner sanctuary but not leave the Kuhouins. As she believes that leaving the Kuhouins would be the equivalent of running away from her problems, however, she will leave the inner sanctuary so she could see the world and possible find her true love. Ridiculously sophisticated and mature insight for a 7 year old; especially a 7 year old that has never seen the outside world until like 2 weeks ago.

The flame war is on: Murasaki vs Renjou
The massively long debate finally seems to get somewhere until Ryuuji abraptly pulls out a knife and stabs Benika.
This causes Shinkurou to go berserk and finally pull out some kick ass moves that we have all waited patiently for. It even lasted an entire 2 seconds before Benika prevented him for landing the final blow. I guess that's just one of the laws of anime, uber hax hardcore moves only appear when someone close to the main gets fatally wounded.
For someone who's suppose to be suffering from a fatal knife wound, she moves remarkably well
None of that made much difference as Renjou decided to accept Murasaki's demands and will allow her to gorw up as a Kuhouin women that doesn't live in the inner sanctuary. Before Shinkurou and Murasaki part their ways, he hands her a scarf by Yamie and a photo fromTamaki. Just so the ausidence know that they still exist.
The episode ends with Yayoi driving Benika to a hospital because the Kuhouins were too stingy to put up for an ambulance. The repair bill must have been ridiculous.

Omg you're going to get blood on the leather!
Meanwhile, Murasaki and Renjou spend some father daughter time... for the first time...Impresssions
Well, coming off the action packed pace of last episode, I didn't expect this episode to have such lack of action. Over half of the episode was just heated discussion. But, when considering the rest of the series, it fits well with the overall pace and flow. The end really feels quite climatic even with the lack of action. Sunrise should really take some notes; you don't need a new 20 foot mecha that obliterates everything in its path to have dorema.
On the topic of Sunrise, Murasaki's decision stay in the Kuhouin family and try to change it from within sound exactly like Suzaku. Whilst I really hate Suzaku, but when the same ideals come from a 7 year old loli, I dont find it all that bad.
Anyway, as expect, this ending left many unanswered questions. It does offer the audience closure and I guess some sort of satisfactory ending. It also gives enough oen ends for a second series, which I'm not holding my breath for.
Screencaps
Considering over half of this episode was dialogue, there wasn't much for me to work with. T_T
Just so we know that they still existJust so we know that they still exist
Shouldn't have scamped on the traction control
Don't forget to flush
Don't touch my loli!
"We're sorry madam, you only payed us to kneel here."
This is why you don't send you're love messages to all
Tatami mats are not good driving surfaces
Zomg, between booze and bread, you go for the bread...
