This show is so cute. Now I want to visit Mt. Takao.

Wished we could see more of the climbing, but it's so short, so it's understandable...
I have my own anime blog. It's called Anime Viking. Hope you'll you read it!

This brings back memories. When I was little I always used to want to rush off when hillwalking, and my grandpa always used to tell me to slow down and keep a consistent pace, just like Hinata told Aoi to.

Of course, nowadays I can keep up the faster pace for hours on end, and my grandpa, while very fit for his age, is too old to do more than the start of climbs with the rest of us.

Ah, I guess other people don't care about that but this series is full of little things that I can associate with, or that trigger little memories like that. It's the main thing that makes it enjoyable to me.

I wonder if I should show it to my parents when it's finished...

Yeah she is right, you need to take it easy and slow down, keep the straight pace.

Nice episode.

If I ever go back (kicking around the idea of taking my son some day) I may make that one of the places I visit, though it sounds crowded.

I have been to Mt. Takao many many times (it is so close and convenient to go from Tokyo) and I can tell you that they did a great job to recreate the look and feel of the mountain.
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

Really? That's nice to know :) Now I really want to go to Mt. Takao...well first, I have to get to Japan T_T

Fun episode! I think the keeping a moderate pace is something everyone should know, it's just like running long distance. Aoi doesn't seem to know much, but it's okay since she's still learning. It's a little unfortunate that she's worrying about giving Hinata the keychain instead of fully taking in the experience of mountain climbing. Then again, it shows Aoi's personality really well, that she still worries a lot about being outgoing and having trouble with communication. ^^

To help all those curious watchers who want to know more about Mt. Takao, check the English website of Mt. Takao
http://www.takaotozan.co.jp/takaotozan_eng1/index2.htm

You can check the hiking trail information there. Mt. Takao is fun because there are quite a number of trails to go to the top and for people who really want something more demanding, you can even keep hiking to deeper and higher mountains from the peak of Mt. Takao.

The trail that Aoi and Hinata went is the most standard path, which is Trail No.1
You can check this trail here:
http://www.takaotozan.co.jp/takaotozan_eng1/course/course01.htm#h3_01


Also from the flowers shown in this episode, I can tell their hike happened in June or early July.

Aww. Those trails look fun to hike through. Too bad that I can't go there. I wonder how long it would take the average person to hike through that trail Aoi and Hinata went through.

If you scroll down to the page in my link http://www.takaotozan.co.jp/takaotozan_eng1/course/course01.htm#h3_01 you should find the information. And let me quote it here:

Trail 1 (Omotesando Trail)
Trail Length 3.8 km
Ascent time (from the cable car station to summit) 100 min
Ascent time (from St.Takaosan to summit) 40 to 50 min
Ascent time (from lift station to summit) 50 to 60 min
Descent time (down to Kyotaki Station on foot) 90 min

It looked surprisingly busy at the mountain Takao must be a popular mountain with so many people around the comments here prove they same tho.
Aoi rushing up the mountain was funny just like a small child in a hurry to get to the top reminds me of when i was young when i went to a mountain in France with my parents.

Actually the anime already made it far less busy than it really is. If you go on a weekend, the area near the top can be packed full of people!

The scenery was pretty nice, and the trail looks like it's a piece of cake. I'm kind of like Aoi, the times I've gone hiking I've rushed as soon as I started since I wanted to get up the place quick.

This episode reminded me when I used to walk trails in the forests with the family when growing up. They were a lot of fun yet tiresome because I would start rushing in the beginning and then get tired halfway through, like what Aoi did ^_^"

That's actually sweet that Aoi decided to buy little present for Hinata.. Aoi just has natural skills for friendship like that at times.. ;P Well, with how she helped Kaede in choosing earlier, just making it look easy.. When it's not always is, not everyone will come up with words for Kaede she came up, as well as not everyone will come up with present idea to Hinata..
