still just as sleepworthily boring as the original series.. if not even more

this one has none

4/10


I think you missed the point. The entertainment value of the show is the relaxing atmosphere, slow paced, easy going, spontaneous characters and humor, sound fitting with the environment, nature of the countryside, the children behavior... Things that you call boring. Well, to each his own I guess. But I just hope they continue to produce more and more titles like this, to vary a little bit from your conventional SoL. Either way, really great. Can't wait for 2nd season, this was more like a tease. Do you guys think they'll ever show Okinawa?

Since I check the manga regularly since the end of season one I am pretty confident s2 will start where the OVA left :)

I love this show. I'm hoping there is another OVA featuring the trip to Okinawa,

I've tried to tell non-anime watchers why this show is so enthralling, but I fail miserably. You just have to watch it for yourself.

I'm very excited about the 2nd Season!!

"I'm worried my outlook on life will change."
That was some deep dilemma coming from a first grader. Then again, Renge is really smart for her age so that's shouldn't be too surprising.

Can't wait for 2nd season. I hope the show doesn't spend too much time in Okinawa (if at all), because Non Non Biyori isn't the same if everyone is not in the village.

Oh my, I hadn't even realized how much I've missed this show.
An absolutely adorable and heartwarming episode, fitting the pleasant summer weather I'm having right now. And a little shout-out to the smart metaphor at the end of the episode.

Still the same old NNB which I like. This is my relaxation show after all that gore anime that recently came out.

I might be over thinking things but worrying about your world view of life is pretty deep and philosophical for a kid. And when Renge-chan starts saying goodbye to her town...... the feels man the feels :')

Hoping for a second season in Okinawa!!!! ^_^

PS: talk about advertising their manga in the end huh.

This just arrived today, so I of course went straight off and stuck the disc in my PC and watched it.

Nice little story about the group's preparation to go on a trip in Okinawa.

Loved that scene where Hotaru was giving the others a trial run on what it's like to go by plane, but the best part was near the end with Renge running around saying goodbye to everything.

Hikage taking pictures like a maniac at the airport.

Can't wait for season 2. Nice little promotion for that on the disc too, but no new footage.

The OVA brought back all the feelings from the tv series. I'd forgotten how cute this show is but in a relaxing way. It's relaxing but definitely not boring and even though very little actually happened in the episode that's what I love about NNB. Those moments when Ren-chon is just staring saying nothing are so funny. No one even talking and I'm laughing ahh I love that. I wish other SOL series could employ this subtle humor and refreshingly slow pacing. And anyone else get those feels when Renge was saying goodbye to everything towards the end? That was probably the best scene imo.

It would have been a 9/10 if there were 2 OVAs and the 2nd is about the trip and also in this episode I wanted to see when they board the plane. For what this OVA was it's a solid 8/10.

Hope it starts in 2nd season with the Okinawa trip.

Was a very nice episode and loved seeing all the characters again!

I dont know why renge always runs when she see Suguru, but I still laugh anyways, she acts like he is a stranger xD

Well, hopefully the second arch begins in/during the Okinawa trip!

Next stop, season twooooooooOOOOO!

Hooray! It was wonderful to see the girls again.
I was worried that Renge-chon had changed her hair-ties, but the ribbons were back by the end.
Nice to see Renge's cat too :-)
So much happy! And now for season 2!

After watching this ova, I can finally put my fingers on why Repeat didn't feel the same as the first season: the music, including the opening and ending songs. The first season has a more "childlike" atmosphere due to the soundtracks, and that works in Non Non Biyori's favour due to the nature of the series. Not to say that Repeat doesn't have it's own charm though.

Regardless, more NNB can only be a good thing. :) Hopefully we'll get to see their trip to Okinawa someday. It should be fairly interesting to see how they will react to things they have never seen before, outside of their village.

Yeah, what's up with that? Seriously. But still, the ep wasn't bad. Not as good as the original show tho, but still good.

Also, Nyanpasu-pasu!

Great to see everyone again. Very relaxing and heart-warming anime. 4/5 for this episode - everything was good but I would have loved to see some clips from Okinawa. Even just a little montage over the ED would have been good. So that's kind of disappointing, but it was really good otherwise.

i've been wondering about that too. Throughout the episode i'm wondering if there is a punchline about this. i mean a realization about that prize is only for 4 people. But, it didn't happen. so, i'm guessing the rest pay it by theirself.
