MY HAND SLIPPED, NYA.

I didn't really like last weeks episode because of how... ridiculous the scenario was, but this week was more mellow and pleasant. Not enough Tohru or Nako though.

I actually prefer Ohana with Ko since he seems like such a sweetie. The Ohana/Tohru thing feels kind of... plot-device-y. Excited to see him come to visit. It's pretty obvious that Ohana's going to come back on Tohru's motorcycle and then Ko will see them or something and misunderstandings will be abound again.
She seems to waver between me liking her and being annoyed with her. Because I can see why Minko's so upset with her when she does things like running after Tohru to go get hm, since that'll only draw him closer to her. Minko's a lot more in-tune to things than she expresses. It was necessary for Ohana to do so, but it doesn't change Minko's feelings or the stress it'll ultimately put on the relationship.

And I'm also thinking Okami will die sometime. Probably near the very end.

And that is exactly what I disliked about the episode. Ohana's impulsiveness is getting old by now. She is badly wanted as a waitress and yet she takes off, thinking that she is the only one who can do it. Someone with a car (spineless uncle or Takako) could've retrieved Tooru much faster than Ohana. She also doesn't think about Minko (who clearly doesn't like the idea of Ohana going to fetch Tooru AGAIN) but well, we can't blame her for that since she doesn't have the same insight as we, the watchers, have.


^--- Exactly my thoughts.

Same here. Ohana's impulsive nature is borderline annoying. One minute I like her character, the next minute she does something stupid and completely out of the norm just to because the writer felt like making her a heroine.

Complaints aside, I actually liked this episode a lot.

Great episode, but it left me wanting more. Such a cliffhanger! Nothing terribly suspenseful, just, it dropped of at the conclusion of the episode's time without feeling like anything was resolved. I enjoyed it immensely and eagerly await next week.

Nakochi continues to steal the show with no effort. Looking forward to seeing Ko.

Is it me or did the episode flew by in like 8 minutes ? I was amazed the end had come so fast... Ohana was absolutely epic in this episode and the cliffhangers, albeit very simple, were really well put. Looking forward to next week, definitely.

In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same.

I felt like this was kind of a cliche story this episode. I have seen the whole "mystery customer" thing on several TV shows before. Not saying it was bad, just "done".

Tohru getting married secretly xD
That'd be nice, though I'd probably avoid the thread for the next episode if that were so!
Ohana has Ko, Minko can have Nako :pp

Ohana going to get Tohru and now she will have to go in his motorcycle and put her arms around his waist and then she will meet Ko who will get jealous for sure


I could actually see this. This sounds very plausible, but too predictable.

I can´t wait to see the ep. xD

And lol @ the preview "So this is the smell of a man´s head"

I sure hope she hopped on to Tooru´s motorcycle with him. xD


I hope your right. I like the moment between Ko and Ohana, but I really want some Ohana x Tooru moments. This episode did go too fast as well and now I have to wait for the next one. I have to say I loved this episode. This episode described exactly why I like Ohana, she's action not just words. The other people just gave up, and at least she's doing something to do things the right way. Its simple she needs Tooru to help, so she's gonna go get him. I mean no one else took the initiative so what is she supposed to do, stand idle and wait for something to happen.
I am a sucker for romance!!!!

Great cliffhanger! I have a feeling that there will be more misunderstandings... the fact that Ohana went to fetch Tohru will obviously make Minko more upset, and if Ko finds out about this, there will be even more misunderstandings.


^This is EXACTLY what's going to happen, which I am not looking forward to. I think my 'misunderstanding' meter got burnt out watching Kimi ni Todoke - I don't have much patience for it at the moment.

The scary part is that it will probably take 18 more chapters for Ko and Ohana to have any resolution and it will probably be in the last 5 minutes of the final episode. Just my guess.

A wild Ko-chan appeared!!!!! finally!!!!! XD

I believe this is the first cliffhanger I've experienced from watching Hanasaku Iroha so far.
The airing time sure was like it happened in a split second lol. Ahhh! I can't wait for next week!!

Overall good episode but the obvious drama unfolding was a bit too much standard fare. The whole restaurant tester in disguise with everybody messing it up could've used a fresher approach.
Imagining Kou walking right into Ohana happily hugging Tooru on his motorcycle already gives me a headache. Hopefully there will be an unexpected twist, otherwise I would prefer Tokyo boy taking the next train back home to be never seen again.
