Heartwarming and sweet as always. Also finally Sensei thinks about Naru's parents, I'm really looking forward to know what happened to them and to some developing between Naru and Seishuu.

Funny that Sensei only now thought for the 1st time about Naru's parents. I wonder if he will stay in the village but who knows...

And I just loved Naru's scream when she got her present :) :) :)

7/10 for this episode.
Isayama Hajime should be awarded The Manga with The Highest Inconsistencies of Characters' Appearances.
He keeps performing multiple plastic surgeries on those Shingeki No Kyojin characters in a SINGLE chapter.
Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga.
Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month.
Patiently awaiting SNK TV/movie/OVA anime-sequel.
The 2015 SNK live-action movie would probably suck.

A hercules beetle is worth 20.000 yen? Damn, didn't knew that. Now I guess I understand that Gintama episode a bit better.

And sensei looking down on Kenta & co when he got the stag beetle, yet seeing karma set in and pinch his finger was absolutely hilarious. But in the end he gave Naru one hell of a present, can't wait to see her cash in that request, though doesn't the lil bugger has a crush on sensei? So guess she's going to save that one up. Or heck, would love it if she actually cashes it in in the last episode by requesting he stays forever on the island.

5/5

Episode that has a value regarding the lesson of life who want to give, because of the importance that has the need to stop and breathe and not be weary in this world so busy and give importance even small things, like playing with the kids so carefree .
Narrative is a beauty with a first part and a second entertaining a little more serious and melancholy.
The characters play an important role. The drawings and the music helps well in partaking in events.
A good show.
I want even more, if possible!

Yep, Handa has really gotten attached to Naru.
That beetle biting Handa xD
Naru's expression when Handa sneezed and popped the streamer lol

I've been thinking, Naru's parents haven't been shown yet. Either she lives with the folks and stays at a different house every day or she lives by herself.

Naru's birthday and Grave visit~
Freaking laptop just died after Handa said "Onde". Freaking laptop didn't even bother to warn me when the battery is about to die. Freaking charger is just here. Freaking ruined the moment.
Anyway, a heartwarming episode again <3
Yeah, where are Naru's parents?? I am guessing that they left Naru.
Yeah, Handa will eventually leave the island, and that.....that is just sad, man :/ I, myself, gets attached to someone/something so fast that just imagining leaving them/it makes me sad.
Well, Naru got that ticket from Handa. We'll see~ Time for me to eat.

I think it's starting to get sad. I'm curious about Naru's past. It seems like she's always cheerful but she might actually sadder before Seishuu came in the neighborhood.

And Seishuu's "heeeeeh!" always gets me. xD

RIP Hercules... Very nice episode, very nice that the sunflower thing came back when he was thinking about Naru :)
What is the most cowardly and shameful thing in human conduct? It's when people with power and people who flatter them hide in safe places and extol war, force patriotism and self-sacrifice on others, then send them to the battlefield to die. For the sake of peace in the universe, before we continue this fruitless war with the Empire, mustn't we first start by exterminating such evil parasites? - Yang Wenli

Beetles are gross. I wouldn't dare to hold one either. I've had toads shitting on my hand, that's enough.

Doesn't she live with her gandfather?
I'd guess her parents are dead. But if they were dead, wouldn't they be buried in the family grave? So are they just living on the mainland to earn money and leave Naru on the island because they think it's better for her to grow up there?

Second part of this episode was the best!
Miwa in a yukata looks nice (I like the colours) and Hiro's as awesoem as ever!
It sounds like a nice idea to gather at the graves and celebrate once a year, with the lanterns and fireworks and such. Though - without family graves I guess it's diffiult. If I just think about how many graves I'd have to go to, in different villages, too... That wouldn't work out.

Yeah, she seemed overtly excited when she got the voucher. I have a feeling she'll probably use it this way too.

This is such a beautiful, cute, and sweet anime. It's refreshing to see an anime that isn't very sad compared to the likes of Usagi Drop. It's hard to dislike an anime that has such happy and funny characters to it.

Anyone know why there are five keys to Handa's house? Miwa says she lost the fifth key, then Handa finds in the grass behind his house. Is there any subtle plot significance to that?

A sweet episode. Handa actually addresses the elephant in the room: where are Naru's parents? They're probably just off working somewhere, but still, it' s a good question.

Also, I wonder what Naru will use that ticket for.

This episode was death-related. First half beetle dies from Sensei's fall. Then we see Naru's grandma ( thought it was her parents' gravesite or etc).
