The Makanai: Cooking for the Maiko House 1.09

Passage

One of the maiko opts to leave the house after seeing how dedicated Sumire is to learning how to be a geiko. Sumire (aka Momohana) is elevated from maiko to geiko.

Thoughts

This is the final episode of the series. Sumire's journey from maiko to geiko seemed extremely fast. This episode focuses very much on Sumire. That seems a bit off to me considering the title of the series implies that the show is supposed to be about Kiyo, the cook. I have no idea how much it diverges from the manga in this respect.
