While his dreams were crushed, it was good that it happened this way instead. I think now he'll get over the past and have a better relationship with his wife who obviously cares about and loves him.

Nice story.
Aging sucks, memories from our childhood are too far away and we want to go back.

Well, it was a nice story, the dreams, fantasies always will be present in the life of a man of 40 years old (I speak from experience)! ;) For me, the best episode!

I liked the story here, but what I don't like is Rumiko's penchant for using superficial things for humor, also always making older house wives as obnoxious as possible is very annoying.

Emotional episode. Letting go of your childhood crush is hard. And finding out if she's nearly as good as you remember her can be painful.

Mr. Shinonome had a shitty wife and a shitty life. I wouldn't mind if he split from her and reconnected with his childhood sweetheart. But of course, life doesn't work that way.

Love Akira Kamiya's voice as always. Interesting that Sumi Shimamoto (Kyoko Otonashi) voiced Seiko Shima.

The ED lyrics match perfectly with the story of this episode.
