You pretty much said what I was thinking.

I wonder when she's going to be caught without her hat or someone seeing Ioryogi talking (if that happens at all)?

I don't remember Okiura calling Kobato in the anime..
It was a good ep (even if I knew the whole story), I expected something better for Okiura (don't know why)
I'm looking forward to the next one. (it has the same title, I wonder what it'll happen..)

Ioryogi said that he went to bring something that will definitely sell, I wonder what it is ?

Don't talk to me about character development if Kaizuka Inaho or Slaine Troyard are in your favorites.

Cute episode.

More Fujibato, more Okiura. Pretty usual episode for Kobato, everything turned out well. It's nice to see everyone Kobato healed gather.

'Mysterious Lifeforms Part 2' next. We get to see where Ioryogi-san went..

This series grew on me so much, especially Kobato.
I don't know why, but I find her character really charming and cute, I'm looking forward each episode to see more and more.

What a twist in this episode! I'm happy to see the plot thickening. I hope we get more backstory on Okiura next episode.

Wow, Kobato is getting better and better! I really like where the story is going. Okiura... possibly Sayaka's ex-husband?

Thanks, person who gave me this on another site a long time ago, lol.

This episode made me go read the manga and caught up in like an hour. Why was this episode good? Because it followed the manga. However, I really like that filler characters Kobato healed showed up at the bazaar as well and the anime did a good job building up to that. I totally understand why they haven't been following the manga completely though. There isn't enough material. Gosh, I wish Kobato chapters would release faster.

Did someone say there's going to be a 2nd season? I haven't heard any news about this, but if it's true, I'm totally down for it. :3

Kobato is definitely underrated. People really aren't giving it enough of a chance. It has a quiet charm about it, it's hard to describe.

I really like the episode. It's slowly developing but I can't predict how it may end though...
I really laughed at the part when Sayaka said " That's a cute duck and Sheep." When she really draw a dog and cat. Hahah

+Fujibato Scene. :D

This episode was just one of those episode that made you smile, even if it was intensely tragic halfway through but by the end of it I couldn't keep the happy of my face. Also a little more back-story is introduced however I'm looking forward to more Kobato back-story. There was also some more Fujibato moments as well as many more that were just super funny which was just the cherry on top.

I freaking love this anime.

I'd like to know how Sayaka ended up with someone like Okiura in the first place. He doesn't seem like the kind of guy who went bad all of a sudden, so I wonder what the circumstances around that are.

Besides that, I found the whole bazaar thing to be a waste of time. It didn't even feel like it wrapped up.

I had two things in mind by the end of the episode: "LOL TSUNDERE" and "GOD I HATE CLAMP".

Ok boys and girls: Kobato is not bad. But I think it's still far from being good. Fortunately there's still room for some improvement.

I think that this is a solid episode. Kobato's mysterious lifeform segments were kinda funny.
I was actually anxious about how the bazaar would go. Kobato's unwillingness to stop inspired me.

And I just noticed that the score for this show is pretty good.

The story is slowly developing, and I am not sure how it ends in the final episode. I still can’t figure why that Okiura wants to close that nursery despite the possibility is that Okiura is Sayaka’s husband.

Flashback to episode 6.

A mysterious man calls the daycare, Kobato picks up the phone and learns about Sayaka's debt. Now we've seen his face and thanks to Fujimoto, we now know that this is apparently Sayaka's ex-husband.

And yes, this is a very nice show. I like how it tends to tug the heartstrings from time to time (nearly cried several times in this series, I expect the ending to be a genuine tear jerker).

I adored this episode. That was like the biggest amount of chemistry between Fujimoto and Kobato this entire series. I hope there'll be even more on it <3

Does anyone know how old Kobato is anyways?

Another good episode of Kobato. It's been picking up these past few episodes, so I hope that maintain this rhythm.

@KayChan4U: I don't know. I don't think we'll find out about Kobato's age. Maybe there will be a big plot twist and they'll reveal that she's really 80 years old. :P

I personally assume she's around eighteen or something.

I liked the episode... The story is slowly developing... And of course, I loved the little Fujibato moments yet again. I'm glad we're getting them almost consistently now, meehee. :>

I almost thought that the little girl with the teru-teru bouzu was going to need her heart healed... Guess not?

Anywhoo, yup yup. Good episode. :D

Okiura reminds me of a mix of Lelouche and Fai. Yes, the development between Fujimoto and Kobato goes step by step since a few episodes back. Would be time. A nice episode.

Best episode but I'm starting to think that in the future Kobato will say to Ioryogi that the nursery home is the place she wants to be since she's always there.

This episode was so lovely I was caught having a smile in my face the whole time saying "OHH SHIT THIS IS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE." A Bazaar huh? That's really a great idea Kobato. Two thumbs up.

Okay so we get to see another Fujimoto x Kobato scene, which was lovely <3, but what really touched me was that they all prepared for it but noone came at first because that nigga Okiura took the posters away. It's a good thing Kobato came up with an idea to gather people. :D

Also, Okiura is Sayaka's husband? Oh shit that's a good couple right there. They're both hot, lmfao. I wonder what happened to them.

Lots of Fujimoto x Kobato in this chapter.
And Sayaka-sensei has a lot of skeletons in her closet, doesn't she?
