Oh god, Naru's face at the beginning. I just- XD

I didn't expect to see FMA and Soul Eater manga in this (Even though I don't read/watch either of them). LOL

The more I watch of this anime, the more I believe that this is the best slice of life anime this season! Naru has to be my favorite character and I really want a kid like her in my life. She is so optimistic, spunky, and funny!
So glad that I'm not a huge manga reader, because the manga readers WHINE WAY TOO MUCH and have to RUIN every adapted anime for the ANIME ONLY WATCHERS!

Naru jojo-fied face at the beginning! XD
Tama is fujoshi in denial. Her idea about shounen manga hilarious too.
Sensei, you didn't even get one mochi? you sucks! XD

I love this ep, the villager being really nice and not annoying like prev episodes :)

Funniest episode so far imo. XD

Especially the part where Tama asked Sensei to give her feedback on her manga. Was hilarious how she gave her opinion on what a boys manga should be.

Episode of the Season.

Under ten seconds and no spoken dialogue yet but I was already rolling on the floor. This definitely set the record for "fastest to make you laugh" for me. MANDOM! NARU <3!

Tama, just join the dark side XD!

I gotta ask, what's the regional accent they use in this show?
"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness."

"May those who defy their fate be granted glory."

Back to form with the well-paced comedy. Episode 2 was much too frantic. Didn't really care for the BL cliche, but I liked the girl's enthusiasm about shounen manga. Naru's face was indeed hilarious.

Naru was hilarious it reminded of the face of Stella of Arakawa under the bridge.
Also, Tama...she is trying so hard to deny her true feelings: she is actually a fujoshi. All the sparkles when she sees two men are a clear sign she loves it but cannot admit it because of her fear of the "dirty" reputation that Fujoshi have, looool.

Probably my fav episode until now. so funny:D

I lost it when the baa-chans kept mishearing each other XD so funny yet adorable.

That Snuff Note manga lol.. Tamako freaking out and then snapped over yaoi moments was hilarious!

The 2nd half was quite touching. Another great life lesson from Yotsuba baa-chan. Man, the life lessons in this anime is top notch..

Too bad we didn't get to see the adorable Hina cries this time XD

I feel like there was an absence of Naru's typical adorableness in this episode - aside from the opening, of course. Still, despite this absence, this was a hilarious episode with lots of cute moments.

Poor crayfish! I feel you, Naru. I feel you.

LOL! Naru's face at the beginning. What's up with those two old ladies? Haha.
His reaction to the manga. Priceless. Haha. The Fullmetal Alchemist and Soul Eater really are the best. When she saw Handa and Hiroshi .... haha!
Narus' reactions are too funny. Reminds me of the same kind of character.
The first half was funny. Couldn't say the same about the second. Even so, this was great.

That episode was adorably heart-warming and funny. The comedy was handled significantly better than the previous episode: much like episode 1, hilarious without feeling forced nor over the top nor all over the place.
Sensei's struggle with his very proud and defeatist nature was another strong point.

Of course, Megane-chan's fujoshization was gold.

This show really starts getting into the habit of being mediocre/bad up until the final bunch of minutes where it gets really good.

Hmm. First half was bad attempt to do quazi-funny parody of fujoshi but it really didn't work. I like second part better but it wasn't really funny either.

I guess my initial idea of this show being clever slice-of-life with hidden truths of life about hero who changes his lifeview after he experiences those precious rural moments away from the city was false. I would definitely appreciate more calm anime with less slapstick scenes.

As it is right now, I can't say I'm enjoying it.

Ah, coming into this as a comedy, quite good. Much better script this time. Gags were amusing, timings were spot on.

And ofc having our protagonist show his creative issues be embodied and resolved in small fluffy heartwarming events.

5/5 - Well done!
