Episode 22 of Summertime Rendering is being highly anticipated by fans as they look forward to the outcome of the fight between Ushio and Shide. The anime is in its final stages as the destined July 24 festival is inching closer, and Shinpei is too close to the event horizon to initiate any more resets.

The group was dealt a huge blow when they lost both Ushio and Hizuru. However, we could see that Ushio's seashell necklace was to play a huge role in the upcoming episodes, and so it did, thus directing the story to its final chapters.

What to expect from Summertime Rendering episode 22?

Now that Ushio has made her grand return, Shinpei and the rest finally have some firepower alongside Ryunnonsuke, who was within Shinpei. It's already July 24, and Shinpei is on the edge of the event horizon, so he can't make any more mistakes. While Shadow Shide was facing Ushio, Haine and Shide were preparing for the festival at the shrine.

Meanwhile, other group members have been absent since we last saw them on the episode. Chances are that they are doing something behind the scenes to take down Haine and Shide. So there is a possibility that they might be near the shrine preparing for the fateful night. With only a few episodes remaining, the events may happen pretty quickly.


What happened last time? Recap of episode 21

Summertime Rendering episode 21, titled "Ajiro Shinpei's Longest Day," majorly dealt with Shinpei trying to get to Ushio before Haine and Shide.

Shinpei found out from Shadow Mio that the seashell necklace had Ushio's data. This makes Shinpei realize that a shadow Ushio, like in the 3rd loop, should be approaching the beach. This meant that Ushio deliberately copied her data to the seashell to transfer her data and memories to the new incoming Ushio.

Hence, Shinpei discussed the same with Nezu, Sou, Tokiko, and Dr. Hishigata. While the entire mission to retrieve Ushio was based on several 'if' situations, this was the only possible way forward for the group.

Haine and Shide also knew of the new Ushio set to appear on the beach. Thus, Shadow Shide was in the sea with a group of strays, searching for her. In the meantime, Shinpei used Tokiko's pet shadow Guil to hide within the group of strays to locate Ushio.

As Shinpei located Ushio and headed to grab her, Shide noticed the peculiar behavior and followed after them. Shinpei had the seashell transfer its data to Ushio. Thus, she regained all her data and memories, leading up to a clash between Ushio and Shide.

In this episode, we even saw Mio confess to Shinpei. Shinpei already knew about it but rejected her as he was in love with Ushio. While Mio acted strong in front of Shinpei, she burst out crying in front of Tokiko and Shadow Mio.
