| Kurimu-chan said: Glad it wasn't full-blown fanservice. But then again, KyoAni doesn't do that anyway~ A long time ago, when Kyoto Animation was just starting out, they did a lot of fanservice, including full-blown Ecchi and some stuff which was not quite Hentai. Have a look at Episodes 8 and 9 of "Full Metal Panic? Fumoffu" (2003) when Commander Tessa comes for a visit to Japan and attends high school. There was also some nice animation of Chiname Chidori in an early beach episode. In "Full Metal Panic! The Second Raid" (2005), there is a scene involving the 16-year-old Chinese-born identical-twin sisters Xia Yu Lan (夏玉蘭), who is the younger of the two, and Xia Yu Fan (夏玉芳). It is in Episode 2 at about 08:00. |

| The episode focused more on Houtarou & of course, light fanservice. -Houtarou looked awful sad in this episode. Maybe because of: -the movie case -his friends having fun at the pool while he's working -poked fun of him during his break time (at least they had some idea that he's not being himself) -Very pointless "case". Figured it out long before they even started looking for the "earring" because that kid with the ice cream had an awful lot of screen time. Well, at least it, along with his friends, helped Houtarou feel better. |
| 08/10 kawai eru! love |
| So it was just ice cream? Maybe they did it because of the whole "Hyouka" wordplay but I don't think that justifies much. Probably the only episode that I'd constitute as boring in the entire series. They just did the cliche pool episode. I thought after the onsen episode they were done with that derivative stuff. Whatever. |
| Why do people have such bad taste? Anime isn't subjective anymore. |
| *facepalm* That has to be the absolute worst mystery yet. Seriously you can't tell the difference between ice cream and an earring. Oh lord in heaven. 3/10 the only redeeming part was seeing Houtarou's sister in person. |
 |
| Chitanda fanservice = perfect pool episode. But Christ, just make out already. |
| Its a first time to see this type of swimming pool designation specifically . Its a good OVA . It might have been better if we get to see some of "it" more ~ . This "Luck , Curiosity , and Romance" of course ~ . |

| Didn't know this is episode 11.5 and I messed up the order :D Cool episode, reminded me a little bit how I came to my first part time job. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Why they have to be so mean to him tho :/ |

| Pool episode, 5/5. |

| Literally the first thing that came to my mind was that it could just have been sun lotion or something similar. To assume that it could be an earring and then search the whole pool is quite stupid tbh. |
| Wow, they really tried to forced the pairing thing between Oreki and Eru, didn't they? Pretty average OVA overall. Nothing really special if I'm honest. 5/10 |
| Nice light fanservice. Chitanda was amaznig in her bikini, sexy yet pretty! And Hotaro definitely agrees seeing as he literally couldn't keep his eyes off her. |
 |
| So this is a fanservice episode which is epic Oreki working as a lifeguard now huh didn't expect him to work Oreki can't take off his eyes from Eru and I can't really argue with that :eyes: . |
  |
| It was a nice special episode, I think even Houtarou has already noticed that he is starting to feel something for Chitanda. |

| Is he still depressed post episode 11 in this? They did just chew him out, and it would make sense since this is 11.5. Mostly curious since that’s what it felt like. |
 |
| Good episode showing how someone's "average day passing by" and in case of Houtarou his "gray life" can take the joy out of someone else's day. Showing how everyone said he was a bore when he couldn't even bring up a single answer other than "mhm". Just look how Houtarou brightened up after figuring out the silly mystery and how everyone else got affected by it. |
 |
| Tomoe is so sexy, fresh out of the shower like that. Oreki should've taken her up on that offer to "leap into her arms". Chitanda also looked cute with her white bikini and lustrously niveous skin. Would've been even better if the straps happened to come loose in the pool. |

| Not a fan of fanservice in anime, but more Hyouka is always welcome. Chitanda and Ibara were adorable as usual. Oreki was way too boring, gladly he fixed that. Apparently I should've seen this after part 1 ended, but it's just a filler so it doesn't matter. |
| Decent fanservice episode. |
