Glad to see Uramichi and the daycare getting more young fans. It seems some are geninuely interested in seeing their concert.

Iketeru and Utano's performance stage was cute imo. Classy episode. This felt like watching a cartoony play and seems there was a lot more music in this episode, even compared to the others.

Time for another Together with Maman! #relatable episode with Uramichi-Oniisan...except that the show director Derekida wants to do things differently for a change.

As if Uramichi's gymnastic background will help the kids...doing backflips for entrances are a sure fire way to teach kids not to do these stunts nilly-willy. I feel like I'm one of the kids on-set who questions Uramichi's every move, while remaining optimistic of his teachings, from hopes to dreams in dark comedy stance. Man, Uramichi sure loves stressing out on Tobikichi (or Usao-kun on set). When your troubles turn into anxiety...yeah sure hah.

The Together With Maman concert...and the choreographer does a quick punch to Tobikichi's crotch, yeah fire up all cylinders for the kids and parents. The Oniisans and Oneesan are out in full force: Iketeru and Utano in their singers role (which Mamoru Miyano and Nana Mizuki did a heck of a good job on that), while Uramichi does the gymnastic work with Usao and Kumao to put a smile on their faces. Of course, what's a concert without the subtle silent dark comedy.

Tobikichi is this episode's MVP for being played at as the joker, while Uramichi's subtle background insert song, I LOVE how the lyrics are a reflection to his own life and outlook of society in his own head.

Some beer off time for all their efforts, and it's back to the usual for Uramichi. Introspective episode!

I ship Usahara with the choreographer. If Usahara drunk enough then lucky choreographer!

The program is intend to have a dark twist since the beginning. Kids nowadays love dark humor, they're not gonna watch innocence, harmless show anymore. So Uramichi is a perfect choice.

Kids keeping real on the "What adults dont have" segment.

The Uramichi monologue about being nice was good.

The cat song was perfect to beat up Uramichi.


Uramichi is a good person but the society corrupted him.

Poor Uramichi had to do multiple takes because the director couldn't make up his mind. On top of that they have to put on this huge concert for the kids. Uramichi and the others were so dead inside as they can't wait until the concert is over. The songs were the real life lessons today.

The live songs are the crowning element of this show so far for me. The writers must have had loads of fun with them, the lyrics are so ill-advised and bizarre. I feel like learning that cat song and recording a cover.

The vocabulary I'm picking up from this show is in a very useful and underserved niche too. Today's choice words are "monotarinai" (insufficient/unsatisfactory) and "karagenki" (fake cheer).

A funny episode once again.
Usuo-kun got bullied hard again by Uramichi as expected.
Utano-neesan's songs were beautiful.
And Uramachi was really happy as usual.. xD

The song in the end was pretty good, very calm.

as a cat owner, i related so hard to the cat song. sad there wasn't a lyric about the fear that the cat might be staring at a roach you've yet to notice - it would've fit the theme all too well

also, this might sound weird, but i love when this show gets depressing. like, don't get me wrong, the funny parts are great, but it hits so much better with a side of cold, hard reality

One of the best episode so far. The "what do children have that adults don't" joke got adapted, I've been waiting for it. Really liked the scenes after the concert. Uramichi also seems to slowly get better..? I don't expect character development from this show but it would be great if there was.

Worst episode by far. The concert was the most boring thing the anime has done so far. Hopefully, we'll have more Usao-kun next episode.

This episode was great. Loved the ending song talking about how good deeds don't always lead to good outcomes and aren't always reciprocated. In many ways I wish I didn't relate to this anime, but I wonder if I'd enjoy it as much if I didn't. In many ways it's uncomfortable as it is entertaining, and I love it.

The trend seems to be that I chuckle a few times an episode and actually laugh out loud about once. This episode that was Uramichi sitting in a fetal position dressed as a cat staring blankly ahead while Iketeru hits him in the face repeatedly with a fish while also blankly staring ahead. Most of the episode was Uramichi interacting with the kids and musical numbers, both are my least favorite aspects of this anime.

"Lets smooth things over by faking cheerfulness." Once again Uramichi Oniisan straight right at the good spot.

The director always fun as heck playing over Uramichi determination at works. While the kids keep getting better every episode with their great takes.

Concert part really bring more the cheers. Song and their lyrics also on point, broke Uramichi mental once more. Three at once, how can i dislike this? Pretty sure that tiny crab actually felt sorry for Uramichi, moreover after its biten his finger. Lives will never be that easy!

This is genuinely the coolest show of this season. I'm so in love with this show. Poor Uramichi-Oniisan had to do so many takes. I felt bad for him and then the kids saying straight-up facts. LOL. The concert part was fun, at least for us, but certainly not for the crew. LMAO.

Need more of Uramichi-Oniisan in my life. Someone, please give this man a hug.

holy fuck this episode hit like a truck
I loved the last scene, it depicted extremely well the feeling (As of now nostalgic because of COVID) of not joining a social event because you are worned out by the never-ending routine, felt like going back to pre COVID Uni in the first weeks where most people just throw parties all fridays and I just went home to sleep after straight 10 hours in classes

Director Derikida is a pain in the ass lmao. Uramichi's life is already a pain, but it was more pain than usual this episode. Really good episode! For a second there I thought Uramichi's heart was warmed when that kid was excited to go to the concert, turns out he just remembered that there was a concert lmao.

That cat nothingess song with Neko Uramichi fucking killed me lmao especially when Iketeru was holding the fish and it was flapping and slapping Uramichi's cheeks. I liked the songs though, I really like Utano's singing voice. Was hoping for an Uramichi song and we got it...! Pain. Pretty hilarious when Iketeru was feeling sad for the crabs and then next thing you know on the next scene he's chowing down on them lmao. Honestly didn't know there's bite sized crabs as well, I kinda want some. Looking forward to the next episode.

The songs in this episode were amazing, especially the cat one haha The end was pretty sad though, and had a realistic feel to the monotony and melancholy of an adult's daily life.

I'm telling you, that director needs to go 'missing' cause he is the biggest piss-take ever. I also noticed that Uramichi is starting to rub off on the kids with the whole adults don't have hope thing 😂

The ending song of this anime gives you a calm yet depressing vibe, and it's enjoyable too. This was the best episode yet for me, I chuckled at Uramichis cat costume, and Uramichi finally got attention from one of the kids, which I guess made him surprised.

I felt personally attacked this episode.

"Let's smooth things over by faking cheerfulness!", this particular one hurt.

"What's something you kids have, but adults don't?", "A heart", "Freedom", "Hope".

Relatable as usual.

The songs they sang at the concert were really good. People don't teach such things to kids in my country.

That back-flipping entrance looked so odd XD

I'm sure Uramichi-san was rejoicing when Usao was getting squashed XD


Yeah, like spits and human pee...
