Crii said: I can´t wait to see the ep. xD And lol @ the preview "So this is the smell of a man´s head" I sure hope she hopped on to Tooru´s motorcycle with him. xD I hope your right. I like the moment between Ko and Ohana, but I really want some Ohana x Tooru moments. This episode did go too fast as well and now I have to wait for the next one. I have to say I loved this episode. This episode described exactly why I like Ohana, she's action not just words. The other people just gave up, and at least she's doing something to do things the right way. Its simple she needs Tooru to help, so she's gonna go get him. I mean no one else took the initiative so what is she supposed to do, stand idle and wait for something to happen. |
I am a sucker for romance!!!! ] |
| A wild Ko-chan appeared!!!!! finally!!!!! XD I believe this is the first cliffhanger I've experienced from watching Hanasaku Iroha so far. The airing time sure was like it happened in a split second lol. Ahhh! I can't wait for next week!! |
| The inn will do fine; they got Mamiko Noto on staff. |

| so unpredictable Epic episode |
| I really enjoyed this episode, it got me anxious for next week! |
 |
| LMFAO i tried picturing ohana sniffing tohru's head just now.... "MMMM TOHRU-SAN YOU SMELL LIKE CABBAGES!!!" ffffffff kooooo. ; A ;/ i feel so bad for him sajdhjasf i feel like ohana's gonna leave him hanging b/c she keeps on turning off her damn phone. |
 |
| Overall good episode but the obvious drama unfolding was a bit too much standard fare. The whole restaurant tester in disguise with everybody messing it up could've used a fresher approach. Imagining Kou walking right into Ohana happily hugging Tooru on his motorcycle already gives me a headache. Hopefully there will be an unexpected twist, otherwise I would prefer Tokyo boy taking the next train back home to be never seen again. |
Crii said: I think the Tooru/Ohana scene will play out something like this: Ohana searches for Tooru non-stop, eventually coming to cause a huge mess in the wedding reception just as it starts or ends. Tooru will be completely shocked to see her there and the conversation will go something like this: T: Hah!? What the hell are you doing here?! O: Tooru-san! Kissuiso needs you! Ren-san is under pressure and he can´t cook. We need to get you back there ASAP. T: What?! And you came all this way just to get me back there. O: -stares intently- Please Tooru-san! And the people around them will just stare. T: Gosh, you sure are bad at reading the atmosphere. O: What´s that supposed to mean! T: Fine, let's just get out of here already. Then they go outside and Tooru gets on his bike and tells Ohana to get on. At first she refuses and blushes a bit. T: Hurry up and get on. O: Eh...eh?! B-but... T: Just get on already! Wasn't it you who said it was extremely urgent?! Eventually she hopps on too and grabs on to his waist. Whether he gives her his helmet or not I do not know. Either way, she´ll end up smelling his hair via wearing his helmet or by hugging him from behind while they ride on the motorcyle. Yeah, my prediction right there. xD EDIT: orz, now I feel like writing a Tooru/Ohana fanfic. :P You're making me excited! XDD |
Ousto said: Calling it now, the old lady is going to die sometime within the series. The preview for next episode was WTF...looking forward to it though. Ko finally coming! woot! And I think everyone would be happier if she died. Mean I know. Looking forward to next episode. |
| wth cliffhanger ending. It's hilarious to see the head cook getting all nervous and edgy. Nya~? |
| 26eps gonna take all summer to finish this I think. But hey I'm not complaining I'm really enjoying this show for some reason. |

| Lol ohana's imagination of them having a good time and okamisan smiling is creepy. |
| After she opened the door it took me a few seconds to realize the episode was over. |
saxophone15 said: lol, same.After she opened the door it took me a few seconds to realize the episode was over. I was really weirded out by the idea of okami-san being nice. Cool episode though. It had some memorable moments. |
| I loved the episode. I was giggling like a schoolgirl when Ko-chan called. Really, really, hate Takako though... I hope she gets run over by a bus. Yuina was funny as always with her laid back attitude and strange dialects. I wonder what Ren will explode in the next episode. Maybe he learned how to cook from Otae from Gintama. >:3 I was hoping for Ko-chan arriving in this episode, but it's pretty much a guarantee that he'll arrive in the next one. However, I have this nagging feeling of dread in the back of my mind that when Ohana meets Ko, she'll have her arms wrapped around Tooru, on the back of his motorcycle as they arrive back at the Kuissou. Smells an awful lot like forced misunderstanding in here... I pray I'm wrong. |

| "My hand slipped, nya" "Nya?!" Was I the only one who was thinking Ren would be getting some serious moe points? Seriously, he was acting cuter than all the other girls combined, and he's a 42 your old guy. Well Kotetsu from Tiger and Bunny can act cute, so I guess this makes sense... just interesting how this year's anime are exploring giving moe points to the neglected middle aged group. Maybe they are finally getting the point that older people watch innocent anime too. |
| OMG I WAS RIGHT!!! I knew that Ko wouldn't really be in this ep and would probably wouldn't get a real major appearance until the 9th one!!! I had a suspicion that he would appear at the end or barely and I was right!!! DAMNIT!!!! Now I have to wait a week!!! Well it will be worth it~ I also hope Ohana rides Toorus bike that will be SO GOOD!!! Anyway I really liked this ep ^_^ Ohana showing them whose boss was great!!! I hate that stupid advice lady... The only thing I like about her is that sometimes she says english words so she has this cute engrish thing going on :) Other than that totalllllyyyy annoying~ Really really can't wait till next week!!! Im probably gonna die waiting!!!! This is my fav anime of the season <3 |
| So motherfucking good. <3 |
| レッツゴー ED イケイケゴーゴー |
| FELT TOO SHORT. But it was really good I was squealing. So we have to wait another damn week. And next episode, I don't want some heartbreaking, still not ready for it. Also, don't give us cliché heartbreaker moments. That's all I ask for you, Episode 9. Kou-chan ♥ |
| Get well soon Okamisan! I hope Ko-chan and Ohana will at least meet. Can't wait for the Love triangle! I support Ko X Ohana btw. But i like to Tohru X Ohana too. Hmm. |
| Lovely episode with two levels: Level 1--typical romance with complications and misunderstandings beginning to accumulate. Well done, but nothing really special happening other than furtherance of the plot and set up for a coming love polygon. Level 2--Contrast between the virtues of traditional Japanese attitudes and service with the new globablized ethos put forward by the management consultant. As the series progresses we see Ohana recognizing more and more the wisdom of characters like her grandmother and Beanman (as opposed to the feckless enthusiasms of her uncle and mother). I like this series. It hasn't quite filled the expectations I had after the first episode, but it still is well worth watching. If it's gone down to second place behind Ano Hana in my season's ranking, it's primarily because I'm a sucker for high emotion and Hanasaku Iroha thus far doesn't pack quite the same emotional punch. |
Please don't feed the trolls! In my next life I want to collide at the corner with the cute transfer student carrying a piece of toast in her mouth...rodac |
| No doubt that Kouichi is going to see Tohru and Ohana together and is going to misunderstand things. Can't wait to see how this unfolds! =D |
 |
| I think on there way back to the place Kouichi gonna see Ohana riding the motorcycle with Tooru and hes gonna get the wrong idea and leave, crying or something... |
| A MUCH better episode than usual. The only thing bothering me is the fact that I know the show's heading towards a really terrible love triangle (love circle?), where Ko-Chan, Minchi and Tohru all assume there's something going on between Tohru and Ohana, while Ohana remains utterly clueless to it all. :/ |
| Renji=Most moe character of the season. |
 |
| Another great episode. Can't wait for next week. |
| This episode is returning to the style I really enjoyed pre-episode3. Hope Hanasaku Iroha can keep this up :S |
Crii said: I can´t wait to see the ep. xD And lol @ the preview "So this is the smell of a man´s head" I sure hope she hopped on to Tooru´s motorcycle with him. xD I think that is why she said that line.. I wonder what will happen.. can't wait for the next episode |

| Bad translation. Hatsuyuki translated it as "So this is what a boy's hair smells like?" which doesn't sound quite as psychopathic. |
| > The Fellow MAL Users Social Link has reached level 6! > Your power to create Forum Posts of the Anime Arcana has grown! |
| Also in the preview it looks like Minko tells Renji to let her do it and he just guides her through it. Could be a good development of their chemistry. Looking forward to it. And so, my thoughts on Renji henceforth can be summarised with "Moe moe kyun! <3" I hope he gets more attention later on! |
| Finally a good episode in after like a month? Next episode will be....misunderstanding? Well knowing Ohana, it wont last long. <3 |

| It seemed like ppl in Inn don't care abt landlady...... :P |
 |
| I thought Takako was gone for good, I really can't stand her... Incoming misunderstanding with Ohana, Ko, Tooru and Minchi is quite obvious, I would absolutely love it, if it actually would not happen. I feel Okamisan will be just fine, the series was very lighthearted until now, real drama would feel out of place. 5/5 waiting for the next episode. |
| I hope Okamisan doesn't die or else I'm gonna be sad. :( |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |

| Is this a test for the inn? That's why so many customers arrive all at the same time? |
| probably not the first but I'm calling Kou to be the reporter even if it doesn't make sense. ignoring his calls is pretty mean, why does this dude even like her? still impending love triangle with Tohru? who takes a train and starts looking for someone having no idea where they are? seriously she doesn't seem very bright. |

Fist she had to turn off the phone, she was at work. Personal calls are forbidden at most service industry jobs (especially mine). Your attention must be on the client and the boss at all times. Why does he like her? The flash back should be enough, he's only invested the last several years of his life to her, he's not just going to give up. And Ohana did know where Tooru was, she looked him up via GPS. She might not be the brightest tool in the shed, but she's an adolescent, that's what young people do. |
