Is farming this awesome in real life? and i liked Hackiken's brother he is like awesome


Nothing is actually that awesome about what they show(well except from the nice people), it just seems awesome because you watch it threw a screen without actually doing it. It's disgusting and hard work, and when you work hard without sitting in a chair you can feel good but also tired as hell. You see the nice feeling of hard work but your body is rested since you just watch the show so you don't understand the non awesome part despite the show showing it to you. Also how dirty this hole profession is get easily avoided by seeing it 2D that makes everything cuter.

Personally I feel it depends on what the word awesome means to you, for me, any bit of hard ass work feels awesome when all is said and done, you feel like you accomplished something and actually did something with your life, and a lot of people most likely do view farming as that kind of awesome. The one thing I ever learned from the show Dirty Jobs, was that what we call "ditch digging" jobs, others call a respectable profession, some people really love being dirty. It's all perspective.

But I do have to agree, animes make everything seem all glamorous and fun, when often times in reality, it's the exact opposite.

I liked the ending, the part where Hachiken apologizes and accepts his mistake.

Wonder what he will spend his money on.

Alright. I'm officially in love with this show, starting with the Mikage family.

Dang, no wonder Hachiken stays away from home. Know what that's like. :(

Aki's family is really nice. If that screw up happened in real life, Hachiken would've been fired on the spot.

The corn looked so delicious, all the food in this show makes me so hungry. :3

That was so sweet of the twins to bring it to Hachiken because he helped their family on the farm. Awww :)

Idk why but after oba-chan was talking about spending money earned wisely, I suddenly thought about Hachiken using his money to buy Pork Bowl. LOL

His brother is a nice guy, from what I've heard on the phone his mother seems to be a good mother, his father seems to be the type who wants his sons to do what he wants to.
A big mistake from Hachiken, all that milk wasted.

Well, I spend money to better myself so uh. Thanks for the compliment, grandma.

I felt Hachiken there... 500 kilo went to waste, sighs. Can't be helped, partly the grandpa's miss too. I like how bighearted they all were there. Really sweet episode.

Hachiken's brother is a rather eccentric dude, he's rather amusing. He fits the annoying older brother type quite well.

This was so nice and wholesome the way they gave him his pay for hardwork.

I like how this show handled Hachiken's mistake and I like how he felt overly responsible as well, stemming from his upbringing which we could tell from the phone was one of striving for perfection.

I like that "don't cry for the spilled milk" this time was applied in a practical way. Man the chemistry of Hachiken with the Mikages is slowly going to the better and I love it.
