Yeah with that disguise, I doubt anyone could recognize Handa unless he takes the wig off.

Second segment of the episode is also amusing. I smell jealousy and misunderstanding from another classmate about Handa. Also, holy shit..what a violent dog LOL. I wouldn't want to come to face to face with that.


The segment about the palm reading is kinda interesting too imo.

Handa-kun's more doubtful about people ever since the time he lost his memory. lol~ His disguise as girl. He didn't expect his friend to bring another guy. His friend is into straps and they went along with 3 different kinds of sport. Wow, Handa-kun is successful in darts. So that friend always get bullied by senpais. Handa-kun saved him and more misunderstandings lol~

Runner has grudge/fear on Handa-kun for losing to him when elementary school. Though he still wants to challenge him. Fake Handa-kun helping him out. His manager and teammates reminds his true skill. When he thought he had chance running against Handa-kun, he realized he was running away from the chase of the dog. Handa-kun doesn't remember the runner at all lol~

Uranai girl wants to see Handa-kun's hand for luck. She's shocked at his simple hand. Eternal loneliness?! Having kids without marriage?! Wow, so miserable. Well, it's kind of true in Barakamon, though.

3 more characters added in ED. lol @ what that friend guy told him about that uranai, saying she says bad things on purpose. Two stories next.

Handa disguised as a girl in the first segment. He did a good job at playing dart!

The runner does not like Handa and is afraid of him.

The third segment at reading palm was decent!

Kawafuji's such a troll, but, surprisingly, Handa stepped up big for Hasegawa. Also, watch out for dogs eager to hump! XD

Was nice of Handa to stand up for Hasegawa.

That running segment, That Dog XD Holy crap XD Poor Dash-kun.

Palm Reading was amusing especially with the Barakamon references. Fortune girl got everything right.

Kawafuji really knows how to mess with someone I could learn from this guy. I hate to admit this but even I barely recognized handa in that disguise. Through out the episode I had a hard time remembering that was handa and not some unknown character. the bit of english/engrish handa knows made me laugh and feel a bit sad at the same time and as usual this series just keeps making me laugh more and more with each episode and you can't forget about those barakamon references. I love the misunderstandings in each episode it gets me every single time.

Damn it Kawafuji, just tell the truth already. It's your fault for making Handa become even worse like this.
I somehow agree with "disease" Hanada said that Higashino have. Even it seems more like a trauma or so.

Not sure if serious or joking. In any case, Dash didn't have stomach ache. He was just making excuses.

Talks about sharing a sports manga to Handa which is then proceeded by a very sports manga like scenario (except for the dog part which would make a really weird manga finale chapter).

my thoughts on this episode:

- the moment where Handa-kun speaks "Engrish"... I died!
- IDK why but the first story felt flat on comedic moments unlike on Manga version of it :\
- those keychains are so cute to be real!
- aaah! my favorite bully character appears! I like him more than anyone who "bullues" our beloved MC :)
- He's such a big baby when he loses to Handa thanks to his delusional attitude! xD
- That dog giving a humpy-pumpy moment to Dash-kun... hahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!
- Although the 3rd story is fun, I found it boring :( but the Barakamon reference is a very lovely surprise :)


After this series, I'll watch Barakamon for 12th time :D

Yep this episode was hilarious. When Handa speaks Englesh LOL!!
Kawafuji is pretty hilarious laughing at Handa's misfortune.

The Dog and Dash-kun part killed me.

BWAHAHAHAHAHA! It was so funny! I loved this episode. I found it extremely amusing. I loved the Barakamon hints and, also, Kawa-chan. Kawafuji is a killer! Saying that he wanted Handa to make friends when, in reality, all he wanted was have fun while seeing Handa's peculiar reactions! Haha! It was very amusing. I liked all the segments, especially the first one and the third one. The second one was funny as well, and I liked Handa-kun's discussion with Kawa-chan about Dash-kun. ”Who's that?” Hahaha.
Laughed a lot.

The dog... The dog was too bloody hilarious. Poor Dash-kun...

Of course, Kawafuji's shenanigans and the fortune telling segment were at least equally amusing. Too bad the fortune teller wasn't able to grasp the context of Handa's future.

While this show has its hilarious moments, it can get really really frustrating at times. I
mean it aims for ridiculous and realistic at the same time and that approach really annoys me.

Okay, that was a dang good disguise he had, like, that is how it should be done. But like, I'm just not feeling this anime, it's got some funny moments here and there, but so much of it is just either really stupid in an annoying way, or just boring. The characters themselves are pretty... meh. I don't like anybody in this anime at all except for Handa's mom, the crazy girl, and the fortune teller girl was pretty okay.

And with that said, I'm tired of Handa-kun, both him and this anime, so I'm jumping ship here, may the rest of you find enjoyment in this, but my time is spent much better else where.
