| Not bad, I loved the scenery and opening (nano.RIPE :) ), I'll give 7/10. The characters were fine but 12 episodes and Suguru never talks :/. I'll watch the OVA but I'm not going to miss it. |
| I'm learning English so maybe I make mistakes :) |
| Hehe lots of scenery and a slower pace this ep, wasn't bad though. Lol @ eating grass. Also, Ren a funky as fuck fairy. :P Was a good series could get a little too slow at times but I liked the characters and loved the OP as well. The ep showing Candy-store and Ren's history was unforgettable XD. 7/10 |
| Incidentally, was that the first time Renge actually interacted directly with Suguru in the entire series? Or have I forgotten something? |
| There is no such thing as shit taste. Only idiots who think everyone should have the same taste as they do. |
| what a lovely, relaxing anime.. easy watching it had me in tears of laughter and of sadness, really likeable characters for once in a slice of life anime i have liked ALL characters pretty much, beautiful art.... will miss watching this one, first slice of life i have really gotten into, i do hope it gets another season! |
| It's Picnic time for Komari and Hotaru, but got worst for Hotaru to eat it all XD. Adventuring through the field with a final wave at the end. Well I have nothing bad to say about this anime, it was nearly positive on several categories: The characters, relaxing atmosphere and music, and the slice of life story, all are just amusing and cute. Almost all of the main characters have a lot of character development in the anime to. Though just a minor issue is that some scenes had that really long pause until it shifts to a different scene and kind of weird and awkward when it is only 5 students in one school. Well 9/10 for the season, the only anime that relaxes me on Monday's :D |
| One of the best slice-of-life anime's I've ever had the pleasure of watching. I especially enjoyed the setting and the backgrounds as I am also from the country and it reminded me of home. Funny how once you grow up and start living in a big city you realize how much you miss the country and how much you miss being a kid. |
 |
| "Why did you use my real name all of a sudden? What happened between you and me in these last few moments?" I will always love Ren and this series. Suck a laid back anime. 9/10 |
 |
| Such a lovely and relaxing anime Non Non Biyori was... :) Love it. |
I have my own anime blog. It's called Anime Viking. Hope you'll you read it! |
| This was such a relaxing anime to watch. Renge is so adorable. I definitely would want more of this anime. |
 |
| Though Ren-chon was my favorite, I do like all the characters in Non Non Biyori. Natsumi always cracked me up in previous episodes with her constant mischief, but in this last episode she was great. Turning Renge into a fairy was so adorable! Let's hope for a season 2 after the OVA. |
| Non Non Biyori is one of the best series i've seen in a while. Truly amazing. I really hope we get another season soon^^ |
| Easily one of the best shows ive ever seen. easily the best SOL since Aria the origination. and also the first airing show ive watched to get a perfect 10. Hoping for a second season as well. judging by how well it sold, it seems possible. |
 |
| It is kind of cute that Ren-chon still worries if their village is a "good" place if it's not anything like Tokyo - every place should be a good place with Ren-chon and other budding characters ;) Anyway, my only regret is that the brother was introduced so lately in the series - the guy is hilarious without actually doing nothing more than enjoying the girls' antics from the sidelines and I think his perspective on their everyday life was valuable for the series. Would love to see more, no doubt; firmly - a good series. |
| A nice way to finish, got to see some focus on Komari (my favorite character) and Hotaru. Overall this series was really funny and relaxing, the pictures of various episode highlights at the end really brought it all back with a solid end. I like how this series focused scenery of the countryside and nature, especially in the first and last episodes. This is another case of cute girls doing cute things done right, 8/10 from me. Stark700 said: Shame the main dude in this show never spoke ..*sigh*. At first I was hoping he'd eventually say something but I like how it ended with him remaining a mystery more. Made his scenes all the funnier, especially when he was chewing on that plant and Ren ran into him. |
 |
| So it has finally ended. I really hope Non Non Biyori gets a second season. Its easily one of the best animes of the year. Forget that, its one of the best to have come in a long time. |
| Memories may fade, but that doesn't mean there isn't any point in making them. |
| The feels... Definitely the most beautiful OST of this season. Loved it. |
 |
| I didn't want this to end, my Mondays will never be the same anymore. The entire cast was likeable, good relaxing anime, good artwork. |

| As a result of watching Episode 12, I can imagine children all over Japan adding baking soda to their food hoping to improve the taste. Koma-chan referred to it as "tansan suiso natoriumu" (炭酸水素ナトリウム) which is the chemical name. Run to the kitchen and try some! Poor Hotarun! |
| Poor Hotarun, Komari tries to flaunt her non-existing cooking skills >_< No doubt Komari has an iron cast stomach (many grown men would not have kept that gruel down). I laughed out loud for real when Hotaru was summoning her will to reject senpais food and the moment she offered a bite she was all mellow mellow, Komari does not realize the power she wields over Hotaru. For a moment I was surprised when they said "the road work is though, go play with the kids" to Hotaru, no doubt she is already strong enough, she is stronger than lazy sensei (in that scene Hotaru is almost the same height as the teacher). I wonder who was the VA that made the plant munching sounds for Suguru and how much he got paid. Sadly when s2 starts oniichan will leave the school. Renge's family must come from an old Samurai family to own a fricking mountain! My grandfather had two ranchs and he had to buy them (with gold coins no less), but I do not think renge's family has the money to buy one even if it is "dirty cheap", it still is a mountain! |
| Russian rice ball XD. http://imgur.com/E14di7g URGH,was seriously waiting for Suguru to say something. http://imgur.com/1LymVyP Ren-chon is FREAKING adorable<3 http://imgur.com/Xan6jeL Fairy or Funky XD http://imgur.com/RF8me3o http://imgur.com/jEkKyio One of the better shows this season,I'm truly going to miss this.Actually cried knowing I won't be able to see this each week no more.8/10. |

| LOL @ it's not that unusual to own a mountain and Renge meets Renge. Va-voom! What a funky finale. Aside from the wonderful scenery porn of the countryside, I really enjoyed things like a kid making friends with another kid from out of town over summer vacation and watching the sun rise for the first time ever. Also, the ED has the kind of charm you can only get from someone who doesn't have a particularly good singing voice like Kaiki in the latest Monogatari OP or the first Mushibugyou OP. Speaking of the music, I should probably check out the soundtrack sometime. 8/10 @VanishingKira: I don't know how I managed to post right after you twice in the same day, but lol. |
 |
| Solid, smooth, relaxing and laid-back. Beautiful scenery. Wish I lived there. 8/10 Ren-chon <3 |
 |
| Thanks. "Sumi" is written as 炭 Poor Hotarun! No sacrifice is too much for her beloved sempai! |
| A relaxing final episode! Merry Christmas to all MAL users ^_^ |
| Aww, I'm going to miss this show and its soothing atmosphere. It made my Mondays bearable for a good 12 weeks. I really hope it gets a 2nd season in the near future. At least we have an OVA to look forward to. |
 |
| Such a cute and relaxing anime, I'm really gonna miss this. The art in this was so beautiful, and Renge is so adorable! I really hope they announce a second season. 8/10 |
| wow gay |
| 2nd season when |
| aww man. just 0.02 again to get 8.00 ;_; |
| Hotarun getting a picnic date with Koma-chan yay! Even though she didn't want to eat anymore, the power of yuri compels you Hotarun XD! Such a nice touch when they brought back that bit from episode 1 when Ren-chon was wondering if they're really in the country. I thought Suguru was finally going to say something when Ren-chon was staring at him. Ahh Ren-chon, such an awesome kid. She never fails to make me laugh. Hotarun: "Is your family really rich, Ren-chan?" Renge: "We're normal. We just own a mountain." I almost spit my tea when I heard that lmao! Also when she was like "Nattsun, a girl? What does that mean?" XD - - - - I love everything about this series. From artwork, to VA, to soundtrack, everything's just perfect. Such a nostalgia trip, makes me want to be a kid again. I was ready to give this a perfect score after watching that legendary episode 4 and I'm glad the feel remained consistent until the end. This definitely belongs to my top 3 SOL animes of all time alongside Aria and Tamayura. 10/10. The first perfect score I'ven given to a 2013 anime. From all the shows that are ending or has ended, this is definitely my AOTS. NYANPASU~~! |

| Still havent got to hear Suguru's voice |
| Funky! Overall a great and relaxing anime, it missed on the comedy a few times though :/ |
| This was the best anime in fall for me. heartwarming and beautiful. There is OVA but i'm hoping for a second season. i hope that happens. 9/10 |
Kentaku said: Still havent got to hear Suguru's voice yeah i kind of wished we would have heard his voice this episode :< but yeah, this series was really really great, hope we get a 2nd season soon. 9/10 from me |
 |
| So relaxing and enjoyable. I didn't expect to enjoy this as much as I did. It was the last series of this season I picked up just because "why not", and I really didn't regret it. I really thorougly enjoyed this series. It certainly is my personal favourite of the season, and my favourite SOL altogheter. I will miss this series. Really hoping to see them again. 9 out of 10 here |
| 8 or 9? Damn I'll go for 8 for now, I might change it later. This and Kill la Kill OST, Where Are You Now? I enjoyed the soundtrack of this show more though. |

| I just realized not enough anime characters turn around and wave to the audience breaking the 4th wall at the end of the final episode. Best SoL anime of the season. 8/10 |

| before this show started i thought it was going to be boring and rubbish how very wrong i was |
| Sodium bicarbonate, hahahaha, where did she got that from? I feel bad for Hotaru.. "Nyanpassu~" It all started with that greeting, didn't it? Sigh... Whoa, Renge-chan sure is rich. That staring face, the director of this show is really wise when it comes to things like that. "Nobody does that in this century" hahaha "What happened between you and me in these last few seconds", this girl is not only adorable but also clever for her age "They look even cuter now" xD It was nice to see the origin of her name. That fairy look was so damn adorable, good job Natsume! Funky, hahaha. "It's funky!" hahahaha. Now I can study for my exam which is the day after tomorrow, I needed this so damn much.. If you gave it a 6/7- score to this anime after watching the full thing then I am sorry to say, but you've got no taste in anime. Nooooo Non non biyori, you were supposed to be my relaxing anime, now I am worried coz it ended... One of my MOST MOST fav anime forever for sure. Say with me, WE WANT A 2ND SEASON!!! I will always remember this masterpiece.. 121221432546/10 |

| Sodium bicarbonate (or bicarbonate of soda) is a very common cooking ingredient. There was probably some in the kitchen. And yes, season 2 please? |

Armageddon and lightning bolts are sure to follow lmao. Interesting. I was just looking at the staff page and the same script writer, Yoshida Reiko, worked on Aria and Tamayura. Now I know why this is so awesome. God bless that woman. Have a Funky Christmas everyone!~ |

Apology said: It was a nice finish and announced an OVA, than good. It will be a second season? The OVA is an OVA. In other words, a disc that comes with a special edition version of one of the manga volumes (note: not all OVAs are like this, but this one will be). MAL has it listed as a single episode, and it is (obviously) not the same thing as a second season. Hopefully there will be one of those as well. xchee said: the same script writer, Yoshida Reiko, worked on Aria and Tamayura Interesting... Guess I'll push Tamayura even further up my list of things to watch. Aria completely failed to attract my interest though so who knows... |
