| FINALLY! MORE GIRLS!! WOOO! Momo is so cute. <3 Looks like Hina is bulllied. Poor girl. |
| "The future is always blank. Only your willpower can leave footsteps there." "Ruling over death means ruling over life. Death is the climax of life. To have the best death, you must honor life." |
| Seeing Hina in tears made me want to punch someone almost immediately.... And Momo please never change. I'd probably act just like their gramps if I had Momo for a granddaughter. |

Same, this arc is very good in my opinion. Umino always put little tips during the chapters, nothing of the important things is there by chance and Shaft have been doing a excellent adaptation. The chapter 51 (both in manga and anime) is a good exemple. Rei talking about his past, the ladybugs, how he keep going on, it all is just a soft introduction about what we will see in the next 10 episodes more or less. I hope these that didn`t read the manga are enjoying the show. I saw some comentareis like "bulling again? Better be fast", to these please keep watching. One of the motives I like so much Umino works is how she show and solve the difficulties... |
Music is freedom |
| poor Hina-chan, she is a nice girl, how dare they do that to her :(( |
 |
| The first half of the episode was pretty amusing. You can thank Nikaidou for that as usual, being all animated about wanting to battle Rei in the finals of the tournament, assuming that they win all their matches. =) However, when they showed the sisters again and how Hina started to space out a little bit, I kinda knew that something was troubling her. The more she spaced out with a solemn expression on her face, the more I was convinced that she was getting bullied and wasn't confident enough at the time to tell anyone about it. Now that she's arrived back home at the end of the episode, with odd shoes on and sobbing her eyes out, my heart simply sank and my reaction was similar to Rei's reaction. The reasons why Hina is getting bullied hasn't been explained, although I think I know the reason why though. Either way, I hope Rei and the others find the bullies responsible for leaving Hina in an emotional wreck, find out the reasons why, and give them a good verbal, or even physical, lecture. D< On the plus side, Momo and Gramp's scenes left me with a semi-permanent grin on my face, due to the overdose of cuteness from Momo and the crazy and hilarious responses from Gramps. =D |
| Must......Resist the urge.......to read............manga....SEND HELP! |

| This episode really made me feel more for Rei than before. He didn't deserve all that :( |
 Three things cannot be long hidden.. ...the s u n, the m oo n, and the tr u th. |
| Momo was too precious this episode! I'm going to seethe with anticipation to find out what happened to Hina. |
| oh, my little Hina, why are you crying? :/ |

| momo and granpa moment was adorable more backstory for rei, lost his family, got in a new family but then turns out to be being destroyed by him, and now bullied, damn how pitiful just wth happened to hina, it seems like she was bullied |
 |
| lol at issa and smith trying out kumakura's shoes. those duo always do funny stuff. and this episode truly deep with all that inner thought of rei. and also strengthen myself, yup i can never like kyouko the way she is. it seems people like her a lot but i just can't, that girl is broken, so does the brother. both of them broken, but kyouko not only broken but don't know how to fix her problem and seek refuge to a married man with a sick wife, of course, gotou is not helping by allowing kyouko to follow her all the time. the flashback shown is the selfishness of kids that extend to the point no return. it is their fault? no, as a kid, it's natural to a certain degree, but it's not helping when they can't get over it for years, i guess, to a certain degree, rei is also broken, there are too many inner though he keep on himself, the uncertainty, dunno when he will resolve himself because to me, kyouko, the brother, and rei all are broken. and now a bully to hina, what in the world happened that make people bully such a kind girl like her? |
| Well i guess no matter how composed someone is they can still get angry. Though kicking a hole in a wall sure was unexpected. Nikaido's bento sure looks pretty nice though. Nikaido does seem confident that he can reach the finals thats for sure. But before dreaming its always wise to not underestimate your current opponents first. Its nice that the girls family business is going well though. The grans idea of a duck sunk in Agar though does look sinister though. Momo really has the strangest of ideas though. As sisters Akari can easily sense when Hina is bothered with something. Its nice seeing Rei listen to the advice on food from Akari and Hina though. Rei's childhood must have been pretty harsh for him but it also allowed him to focus on something that he likes which is shogi. Looks like Hina is being bullied in school sadly though. |

| Ah ok I thought that he sort of ended up liking it after he was introduced to it by his adapted father. dend08 said: Shingster said: Well i guess no matter how composed someone is they can still get angry.

| "one step at a time" |
| I feel like I can understand the anime better this season compared to the first season. It seems a bit less gloomy and it seems to use a lot less metaphorical depictions and such. Is that just me? I can't believe Hina got bullied. I think Rei will think of something to help her or say something influential to help through this. |
| Misery to those who repress Hinata! |
| Tears are coming........... Such fun cannot last forever. My heart </3 |

| HINAAAAAAAAAAAA |
  |
| Another hilarious and powerful episode, 1st part was hilarious and 2nd part was the powerful one! It like an eternal of "and play" like it's his punishment, good thing Kawamoto three sisters are his salvation/saviour! Oh My God! What's happening to Hina!?!?!?!? 5/5. |
 |
| Damn, the drama train is coming. I don't think my heart can take this. |
| TRIGGERED My poor kids don't deserve this. This episode started so light hearted but now I feel so heavy... |
| Baby, daijobanai... |
| Feeling the artstyle for the girls are a bit cleaner than last season? I'm not a wizard in avoiding spoilers...got spoiled this arc weeks earlier |
| Honestly I wasn't too big on the first two episodes. But I'm glad that this episodes really delivered. I'm looking forward to the next one. |
 |
| Rei's adoptive siblings really are assholes. And now Hina is getting bullied, my how everything comes full circle. And THE KITTIES!!!! I love those cats. |
 |
| Dang, really good episode. Seems like they bring up Rei's past again to show how it'll affect him when dealing with Hina. Poor girl :( Must be tough, and I liked how it showed him trying to help out at home too but that only made it worse between him and his siblings. Hope they can resolve everything soon :( |
| Didn't liked this episode much and there are three reasons for that: a) the first part was mostly comedy and Shaft really sucks at that, it reminded me of all the bad things the previous season had. Also, Nikaido is still annoying as hell and time dedicated to him is wasted for me. b) the second part and Rei's background would be interesting if we already didn't know all of that. I'm not sure if spelling it out makes it better or something. c) after great two previous episodes of interesting 'shaftic' animation Shaft (almost) backed off to the style previous season had, eg. not their style but the style of the manga. I don't think that's good sign as I would certainly appreciated if they have more creating freedom over this series (but their production comittee certainly disapproves I guess). I understand that b) was actually used as foreshadowing for 'Hina's being bullied too' story but the problem is that it was only build-up and the meat of it would be the next episode so it didn't quite work in anime as it probably did in the manga. Also, really hate their decision to split up the arcs between episodes.. and quick look on episodes list tells me even this season would be plagued by this. I'm still insterested in Hina's story but I actually hoped they at least try to prevent all those mistakes first season had. |
| There must be a special circle in hell reserved for people who bully Hina. |
| A depressing episode ...I hope Rei feels better |
 |
| Quite the dark flashback again, but that's also why I love this series as it is very happy at one point and can directly switch to very dark and grimy atmosphere. That ending though :/ Well quite liked the episode, looking forwards to see what's next. |
 |
| Excellent contrast between light-hearted fun and sombre introspection in this one! |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| I don't think it would be unfair at this point to suggest Nikaidou is gay for Rei. I support their relationship. Rei's childhood flashbacks always piss me off. Doing nice things/chores for your adoptive mother isn't "scoring points". Kyouko and whatever the fuck the useless boy's name is are insufferable assholes. |
| "No, son, you may not have your body pillow at the dinner table!" |
"Because we're best friends!" https://www.myinstants.com/instant/really-nigguh/ That grandpa is too over-the-top. Most over-the-top grandpa I've ever seen. I wonder why Hina's so deep in thought.🤔 That's a whole lot of playing shogi Rei has done, why hasn't he done anything else? |
| Numbuh 3, you've got to get off the couch, you cannot sit in that tree house, girl you like Rainbow Monkeys so grab your little shit and then swing! Hand tracks be tracking me to different doorways. In a maze, and I don't know what to do. Guaranteed though, Ima find the emeralds. |
| All that from just looking at a bush, amazing. And that post credit scene tho |
| This was cute af AND depressing af: Momo's brainstorming was super cheery along with her grandpa being so proud of her granddaughter. However, Rei's flashback about how his behaviour eventually torn apart the relationship between the Koda children and their mother broke my heart. He must have felt like a piece of garbage... Oh no, not Hina. |
 |
| Omg, Hina is being bullied! Death to the bullies! |
 |
| Legend has it that you might be able to still hear Rei repeat "and play" in a certain neighbourhood This is the type of episode that I dislike, as I mentioned back in the first season, it's yet another variation of "I was alone since I was six", same message but told in a different way to pad the series. Some people may think it's brilliant character exploration/study case, but for me it's just the same shit that I already know for the most part. The whole thing is just being glorified and it took up half the episode. SMH ending with Hina seems interesting tho |

| This episode encapsulated what makes 3-gatsu no Lion so great if you ask me. The episode starting off hilarious was really amusing. I never realized how much of a giant Kumakura was. Wonder how tall he is numerically. Nikaidou having his entire future planned out was quite amusing, as was Kiriyama getting embarrassed. Momo's dessert ideas were top notch and deserve to be immediately implemented. The second part of the episode was brilliant. Kiriyama's childhood life, as depressing as it was, struck a major chord with me. As a viewer, I seriously sympathized with Kiriyama, even if my childhood wasn't nearly as depressing. You can completely understand his thought process in trying to stay invisible to avoid trouble. I don't care who the children are; siblings should not treat other siblings like that. It was disgusting. How Kiriyama is even remotely sane is a miracle. Him purchasing the doughnuts was a nice touch. Who the everliving fuck touched my Hina? Hell is going to rain down on their forsaken soul next episode, I assure you. |
| Grandpa and Momo scenes are the best Oh no, Hina is being bullied (i think), who ever touched her is gonna feel the wrath of Rei and the rest, nobody dares to treat Momo's big sister like that Second half was pretty depressing watching Rei tell about his childhood |
 |
| Those 2 kids are spoiled brat! They make Rei a helper in the house. I really hate the "Princess Sara" drama! What happened to Hina?? |
| Proverbs 4:23 Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it. |
| Who tf is bullying Hina!? Square up fools. |
 |
| The first part was so fun then came Hina’s spacing out then Rei’s past and then that ending. What a rollercoaster. Hope Hina’s problem wasn’t bullying but that was most likely :( And Rei’s past is really sad. He really had a hard time during those times. |
| Nice. Rei must be a plant lover lol, too bad he's such a loner It's time to amputate whoever did that to Hina's foot >:( |
 |
| now way, Hina chan is getting bullied? |
| Hinata is thinking about something?.. Hm?.. Hinata in different shoes?.. Is she getting bullied in school?.. Well, for whatever reason.. Like for example being close to that baseball player.. Or it's something else?.. |
