I enjoyed the little talk Kobayashi and Tohru had about family as well as the comedy segments for the beach half. The Comiket part was great though. I loved seeing Tohru enjoy herself in her "cosplay." Also, poor Fafnir.

This picture made me think

Doesn't Kobayashi looks kinda sad and Tooru is consoling her? I wonder if something happened offscreen and if the show will get to it.
Also I like how self-aware is the show in the title :D
I was wondering where that very briefly shown scene had come from - glad I didn't somehow miss something earlier. Chekhov's gun should apply here, so hopefully it will come around.

A very cool episode. I especially liked the Comiket half and Kanna eating everything - I wonder what the teacher will think of Kanna's homework?

Despite the anticipated fan service, it's all played for laughs (and, thank heavens for that). I just KNEW Kanna would eat that crab!

The underlying theme of Tolerance Of Others continues to give this show a wealth of depth. Yes, it's a light comedy, but it has a big big heart.

Damn good OST behind this show, by the way ...

Hate to burst your bubble, but that is from a previous episode. Everything in that cut was Tooru remembering special moments. No foreshadowing or C-guns here, just happy memories. :)

Japan is weird. Kids watch shows like dragon ball, which are full of pervy jokes yet, they find Luco swimsuit too slutty, though its not that strong


Its even more weird when not a lot of people complain about lucoa's boobs compared to ryota in occultic 9.

This is such a great series. Wish Lucoa opened her eyes more, they're really nice and the moments with Tohru really hit the feels. Lol when Kanna ate the crab. Still no Elma though.

Lol @ Lucoa. Poor Fafnir, I probably would have bought one of them.

Kanna is very funny also, eating everything.

Yes we get to see Elma next week. Finally is definitely right.

My least favorite episode yet. The scenes trying to be emotional are just kind of falling flat with me.

Still some good bits of interesting info though, like learning about Kobayashi and Tohru's families, and seeing more denizens of the other world.

Also, I love the title of the next episode.

Comedy-wise a bit slower-paced than expected but still a good'n. Absolutely loved Tohru and Kobayashi's little fishin' outing there and their talk about family. Seems like a possibly tense episode next week but looking forward to finally seeing Elma!

Can someone explain to me how Lucoa was, "Seducing." Shouta by roughly, unsensually applying sunscreen oil to his back? I'm seriously lost on this one. Nothing she did there was actually her deliberately or even undeliberately sexual or even suggestive in any way, that I could tell.

Really really good episode. Didn't think the fan service episode would get that deep. Very well done. Also I felt the background music for this episode was spectacular.

Then Comic Market got pretty serious as well. Tohru looks super cute with the wings as well.

Ive been so pissed that Elma has not been introduced, but the fact that the next episode title even says "She's finally appearing huh?" tells me they left her out this long on purpose and they knew what they were doing lol. So I can't be too mad.

This could have been a dumb fanservice episode and that would have been fine. But it went the extra mile and gave us some great comedy and feels moment.

I am really loving the relationship between Kobayashi and Tohru.

So the "beach" episode... I wasn't like other anime beach episodes. We learned a little about Tohrus family and stuff. And I loved the comiket half of the episode.

I was talking with my friend and she keeps saying that the other "people" from her world aren't. And I think they are like she can sense they're from her world and stuff. Also like Shouta his family is a Magee family from another world (tohrus world) and they're just trying to keep theor magic alive so they can return... so we know other races can travel outside of the world. I wanna know what y'all think!!!!

Also that one character in the opening and ending we always see... she appearing in the next episode right... because the sub-title was she finally appearing huh, sooooo.

I really wonder if we'll ever get to see Lucoa's and Elma's dragon from in the series... Also, I wonder if there will ever be a threat to Kobayashi-san. Like seriously, having 5 dragons on her side... that will be a glorious battle and a freaking emotional one too.

There was no seducing, just Shouta being overly conscious of Lucoa.

It's been a while since a show has made me just genuinely smile as much as this show has. This and Demi-chan are just such pure shows that just ooze happiness.

I wonder if actual romance is ever going to be a thing here, or if its just going to be Torhu in love and getting rejected a bunch.

The Beach and Comiket (and Fafnir's now a doujin artist; Tohru interpreting the doujin as curses was funny)! And Kanna eating crabs and bugs. And fireworks.

Messages this time around are about growing up and being independent from your parents. And next week will finally be the appearance of the last Dragon. And like 4/5 weeks left after that, unless this is like 10/11 episodes. Either way, will be sad to see this go, but nevertheless, I'll enjoy it while I can.

In the end, I would not say that the fanservice that you saw, it was so much, we say it is normal, except for Lucoa, she has nothing in the standard. XD
Suffice the scene with Kanna and the melon, to promote the whole episode, but there is much more, as Toru and his personal fireworks on the roof, or Lucoa and his desire to swimsuits.
Who knows if there will be a second season with the cast extension, it would be nice.

I felt bad for Fafnir. He doesn't show it, but he likes playing video games and hanging out with Makoto. He's even getting into dijoushis. To bad his book of curses never sold. He became quite depressed over that. Maybe he should have written stories about his life as dragon. I think it would have sold well then.
What if the Hokey Pokey is what it is all about?

Despite being a self-called "fanservice episode", it wasn't too much at all IMO, but still a pretty decent episode.

The funniest thing was watching Kanna eating that poor creatures lol.

She does. She fell from grace as a former goddess. She then became a dragon. (Although a very powerful one.) Hence the horns on her head when she's not in public. If she was still just a fully human/goddess, she wouldn't have the horns.

I guess Lucoa's dragon form would be the still that was shown in episode 6, when she explained what she was. That dinosaur looking thing.

Sure the horns aren't just part of her goddess aspect? (Or demon aspect, given fallen goddess/angel.) She's the only one of the four who doesn't have a tail in the ED.

https://puu.sh/uhxuF/d53bd7297e.png. I believe this would be her dragon form. Although I suppose it could be argued that, that doesn't actually look like a Dragon. Guess you can kind of form your own conclusion, haha.
