Well that was cute and funny.

Aoi is getting spotlight again in the latest episode which is cool since she's one of my favorites from the series. It looks like she may have underestimated her studying lesson though lol. Gotta hit those books!

Aoi getting weighted down by her homework! That promise xD

How Aoi sees Hinata though xD She climbing a homework mountain yet Hinata is playing!

Kaede unable to hel[ Aoi, that suggestion to get Kokona to help.

Working and working through all the subjects and Yuuka helping both of them. The feeling of accomplishment on a job well done ^^

Aoi's homework dilemma was pretty funny! I like how she always comes to Hinata whenever she's in a pinch, but doesn't speak too high of her regardless.

Just when I thought Kaede will be Aoi's savior, she also had been procrastinating a lot (just like me). XD
Nice to see Yuuka back. I wish she'd join them in the mountain adventure though..

Hinata made Aoi look so god damn white with that tan.
Sometimes I also forget they are in high-school.

Could anyone tell me approximately how much homework they get in Japan? Panicking when she has 7-8 days to finish it seems absolutely insane to me. If you take the combined time of all the homework I've done during 13 years of school, it'd still amount to a couple days work tops. I live in Norway though, where everyone has responsibility for their own learning, so any homework is voluntary.
I rarely revisit threads, so if you're after a reply you should PM me or post a comment on my profile.

Okay that was certainly unexpected, I thought Kaede was the type who can do well on academics, I guess we really can't judge a book by it's cover.

And NICE MOUNTAIN at the "now loading" scece.

Yet another episode without the presence of Kokona.

I would say this is like a classical scenario they used over and over in animations, but it does somewhat reflects how much loading Japanese kid has. Although I don't live in Japan, I guess there aren't going to be too much difference compare to the situation in my country. As far as I know, all eastern Asian countries are like this.

When I was in grade school, my summer homework would take roughly a week or two to complete. When we were in high school we don't have summer homework, because we are (somewhat being forced) going to school to join their "supplemental programs". Even if we don't go we were usually sent to cram schools. Summer vacation? What's that? Is it good to eat? BTW, just FYI, our government is planning to cut summer vacation for all grade and middle schools, insane.

Since you said you are from Norway, I would say... for us, the life in Scandinavian countries are so advanced that is something we just can't comprehend. It's way too different from ours and it's like you all live in another dimension...

Conquering the scariest mountain of all - the mountain of homework. I was always the type to leave and leave homework to the last minute when I was at school - and not do it at all if it wasn't important. I can't concentrate on work when at home. Home is a place for relaxing. If I started seeing it as a place to do work then I would never be able to relax.

Completely switched the stereotypes of both Hinata and Kaede's characters! Hinata is the smarter one!

It was cute, but at the same time, I know how she was feeling!

Also, I'm glad we got to see Yuuka and Hikari again!

Here I thought Kaede was the responsible type with studies because she she gives wise words to Aoi. Quite surprised that Hinata finished her homework first. Here I thought she'd be the playful type that puts games first and homework last.

Aoi literally dug her own grave at first but Yuuka helped her pull a miracle. Aoi shows her homework without worrying.

Lol at Kaede accepting to help Aoi out yet she doesn't remember anything nor has she started on her hw XD Yuuka is such a great friend, they don't even go to the same school right? But she's still going out of her way to help out Kaede AND Aoi, even though she's not really gaining much, except I guess keeping her knowledge fresh.

So Hinata is a top-ranking student, that's a surprise.

Kaede calling Kokona made me LMAO. "She can do it cuz she's Kokona-chan" xD

Another awesomeee episode, I am loving the SOL feel to it, mainly because it's actually 'SOL'

Another great episode, I liked how they are involving other character more and more. And Aoi seems to becoming more mature in the process.

Now loading... I laughed out loud :D

Oh God, I felt so related to Aoi's situation xD

So Hinata is the responsible one of the group, who would have thought? And lol Kaede, that silent moment xD and the scene with the "loading" mountain was gold haha.

Funny episode but I'm starting to miss Kokona-chan :S

That was such a wholesome episode!
I love the imagination of Aoi and the attempt of Kaede to call Kokona-chan for help. Also, great to see Yuuka again.

Poor Aoi is having troubles with her homework. You don't want to waste your time with that when it's summer vacation.

Well, if you don't have time, why you just don't work anymore?.. Speak with manager, explain that you don't have time anymore, he'll understand.. Like, yeah, she managed in the end to do everything.. But in reality sometimes you won't be able to do everything in time, and have to prioritize stuff..
And wonder, if Yuuka might like the idea of becoming a teacher.. Not necessary, of course..

Now I realize that what made Aoi tired was actually her anxiety.
Many of my recent days looked exactly like these busy days of Aoi πŸ˜„.

I was sure Kaede would be the top student of her class but apparently not.
