So the all out war wasn't that bad after all the girls even made friends in the end which was nice to see.
Anyway it seems they are still being followed but it could still take a while before they meet their followers.

That might be the first episode where there was no subtle revelation, just two ''armies'' fighting over territory (i think, it was quite obvious that they had fun with each other).

Chameleon's design might be my favourite so far, in general i like how there's no end to new designs.

First real cliffhanger! What might have been obvious for us, it's a pretty big deal for the anime to have a flat out revelation as cliffhanger.

The scene after the ED is also interesting, apparently the Raccoon has a device that can make Lucky Beast talk (Bag-Chan also has one of those on her hat, i believe).

The two sides fighting was amusing. Eventually, they all became friends. The cliffhanger was interesting. That one animal flat out asked her if she's human. That's going to confuse Bag-chan.

Oh I didn't notice that, yeah she has a bird feather in her hat. I wonder if the old staff members had feathers to mark them, or maybe all Japari park visitors got a feather as a gift and it triggered the helpers.

The story seems becomes more and more twisted. Prey and predator are re-determined right now, even when it's just through a game.

finally some (quite) serious problem pop out on serval and kaban. i lchuckled when lion personality change when no guard around, quite similiar to serval i guess. and that cliffhanger just.... wow. and as smudy and brone mention above, that feather is actually the devide which make lucky beast respond to kaban, at first i thought he's responded to her because she's human. probably that is one recognition device for all human who visit japari park before human extinct.
also, yoshizaki mine chara design is outstanding. i really love the shoebill and white rhino design on this episode

Kaban-chan's wisdom is wonderful again in this episode!!
Will Kaban-chan and Serval reach the library in next episode to finally make the secret of her all clear?
Is she is a human, a "friends" of human, or ...?

In the C part, it seems that the wings of Kaban-chan's hat also had an advance hint.

I am not watching this series (nor will I) but I thought this "news" was susceptible to interest people here:




edit @SakurasouBusters : Thank you for the invitation but I must decline it. Things like Azumanga and K-On were both utterly annoying in animation despite how good or correct they were originally, I can't after them sit through yet another one ever again.
And this so-called "moe" sensation you're supposed to experience in front of such characters, I am insensitive to it. ^^

It's the first time that someone noticed Kaban-chan is a human!
I think the name was Shoebill (a bird that has a stork-like overall form)
4/5.

Damn son, the fight animation was nice. :D

This episode was kinda silly, but nice teamwork and reveals at the end. I suspected the feather plays a role, but having another one with knowledge about it is interesting.

It's a stick up!
Aurochs is thick.
Lion can get it.
LMAO at Shoebill staring at Kaban.
lol at Serval running away.
Dat White Rhinoceros booty cheek.
LMAO at Udao-niisan saying Mooses are scary during mating season.
Holy shit! Lion and Moose going at it.
What? Shoebill knows what a human is? What is a human?

Their "war" game was really fun.

Showbill has the second best design after Crested Ibis (again from what I've seen from fanarts).

She quite smart too realizing Kaban is human.

The general dropping her act/changing her tone of voice once the other girls left was pretty funny.

As a Friend, a chameleon is still able to conceal itself...interesting.

"Are you...a human?" Finally, someone comes out and says it. From the title of the next episode, we'll finally make it to the library and get a confirmation as to rather Kaban is human or not.

So there were two bands and they decided to fight through games and not violence.
That creepy girl told Kaban that she is a human, I guess there's no need to go to the library now?

Anyway, good episode. These "fillers" are really interesting and fun that you can't even consider them as fillers.

The Moose and Lion clans are funny. And it seems someone knows what Kaban is.

Still, Tsuchinoko-type at the end credits is so hilarious. I wish she'll appear in the future.

Besides the episode with Tsuchinoko, I liked this one a lot. Finally, someone figured out she's human.

Both male and female mooses can have antlers, but it's a lot more common in males. Only male lions have manes.

"Are you... human?"

ooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh boy, that's a fun question for kaban!

this was also a really fun episode, and i can't help but notice that it feels like they're building their own civilisation, if that makes sense? running cafes, building houses, inventing sports, it's interesting to me.
