----------------------------------------
I actually like Kazumi's haircut when she was little, not to say that she isn't beautiful now. I think the planting thing is a great thing though; I gotta keep that in mind when I have a child.

Kouki is such a brat though.

Foreshadowing maybe?

Splendid episode.

Learning about this tree tradition was really interesting. Might start it with my own family if the time comes. :D

The whistle thing was hilarious btw.. xD

I wish I had a tree. :(

Kouki and Rin together is so cute. They're like the perfect pair, one being practical and the other making mischief. This show is just so great and always makes me feel happy. I was in something of a downcast mood since yesterday and this cheered me right up. ^_^

Oh, and did the ending change a bit with the tree and Rin wearing a backpack? Maybe it's changed every time and I only now just noticed it - I usually don't watch the ED, just listen to it.

I love the faces that Rin makes. Always makes me laugh. I wish my parents planted me a tree like that, but then again we always moved from house to house, so that probably wouldn't have been a good idea.

At the opening scene with the picture taking I suddenly realized how much Kouki seemed to be like Daikichi, then the whole episode hinted more and more at Daikichi having been a similar kid. I laughed quite loud at the map Rin's mother drew, like Daikichi I was thinking "Isn't she supposed to draw manga?" lol

A contribution in regards to Loquat seeds. It does not take like 10 years and the following says "Small, white, fragrant flowers are borne in fall/early winter in panicles at the ends of the branches, giving way to one- to two-inch oval yellowish clustering fruit in the summer (March through June). " So it takes at most 1 year.

I got the information in wiki:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loquat
and in another place for the duration quoted here:
http://daviswiki.org/Loquat_Trees
well hope it gets some interested. The fruit looks not bad. The seed looks like a tool to bully in school. Seed shooters?

Me too! :( but we moved too much for that....

This episode was cute. It was hilarious when the little boy knocked over the plant and started to blow the whistle and we they were running from the old man in the end. lol I hope Daikichi and the boys mother have a relationship. That would be interesting.

Great family tradition. Daikichi's grandfather was an awesome person.
Kouki is such a brat, but Daikichi was right to praise him for looking after Rin like that.

And I can see Rin and Kouki being together in future lol.

The don't have such tradition in our country but it's a tradition for every boy to plant at least one tree during his life. I planted cherry tree than I was in school.

> That was another cute episode! I wonder how tall Rin will be and her tree in 10 years...

Quite tall. Read the mange if you want to know

Well his going about it the right way. As they say the best way to get it with a single mom is by getting the approval of her child.

I wonder if it really works that way. This anime of course but what to the statistics say of such things happening in real life?

I have to say in the end Rin is one lucky child having a guy like Daikichi care so much about her feelings.

A making of a Kimi ni Todoke - look alike (except its reverse this time). Unless Daikichi puts up the nerve to actually ask Yukari out. Which I kinda want to happen.

You all never got trees?
Well, I didn't get a tree...just a red rhododendron bush (though they can get pretty big). My little brother got TWO trees...one from us, and one from a family friend.

Kouki and Daikichi are too similar! It's hilarious. And woah...Daikichi sure wears bright undies...

They can always make a 2nd season though... even if it's unlikely.

That's good because last time I saw *looks at time* it was about 1 hours that the fucking smog was disgusting to watch. In thee end kids like Rin have disease and die from pollution.

So this anime does a great thing not only to show parenthood but also to show how it can contribute towards the environment.
