| Tsumugi is actually more self aware than I had thought. It's a fine episode imo, with the usual Summer vibes. She and Shizuku has their usual chemistry. Shiroha also made an appearance while fishing. Seems she and Tsumugi gets along just fine. Seems Tsugumi just wants to enjoy life at its fullest on the island. She even made some makeover to the lighthouse! |

| Tsumugi's such a cutie. The way she acts and her personality are so pure, and the way she ran inside all blushed after learning that Hairi loves her... she's so precious, I feel this urge to protect her. Shizuku lending her breasts to cry on, she'll never recover. But I'd accept her invitation to feel them against my face. Now that I think about it, hers look like the biggest pair in the show so far. Still, I'm confused why no one noticed or reacted, as if it never happened, when Shizuku called herself a pair of boobies. The things that happened at home with Kyouko or the chest-stuffing were all cute and funny. Not again. Tsumugi and Hairi finally accepted each other's feelings, and we got the worst ending again with both separating from each other. If I had known this is how the show would go, I never would have started it. Not because it's not entertaining or the show is bad, but because I'm afraid of getting hurt by this. |

| Mugyu to all!! We had abs again this episode and off course someone being punished for showing them. Tumugi was also showing some good understanding of Shiroha tho she doesn't seem to remember the name of others. Ao explaining her name was funny. Kona behaving different when Shizuku is around was also funny to see, guess he likes her a lot. |
| Could’ve done without the fanservice this episode given how wholesome and emotional it was trying to be. I feel like things progress too quickly for me to actually be invested and cry in these big moments, but I do know tsumugi is a sweetheart who deserves happiness. I understand it’s a VN adaptation so obviously the pacing is going to be wonky, but it feels weird to have Hairi and Tsumugi confessing after two episodes when we just had the Kamome arc lol. Of course they spent the whole summer together so in universe it makes sense, but as viewers it’s off. Tsumugi disappearing suddenly has me worried. What’s gonna end up being her backstory? We need her to get that concert 😭 |

| Tsumugi is such a sweetheart who just deserves all the happiness. |
| Really warm and wholesome episode (just the boobies part that wasn't really necessary) But the end of the previous episode could have been moved here and the end of this one could have been kept for another episode I think. Are they really planning to end the arc in 2 episodes if they make 4 like Kamome ? It will be hard to put everything if they do that. |
| It really irks me how it feels like they are rushing Tsumugi's route when I think it is better to make her route's pacing slower. Personally, I find Tsumugi's route as the saddest route of all routes on Summer Pockets and the slow buildup relationship between Hairi and Tsumugi helped that. I can totally imagine they will finish this route in 2 more episodes and they might be really sticking to 4 episode per route rule. I don't kinda want to imagine how it will turn out on Ao's route being 4 episodes only. |

I think Feel isn't making any effort to improve some things compared to the Visual Novel, why does it seem like all the girls will only have 4 episodes per route? I don't think that's fair, do they really intend to put everything in just 22 or 26 episodes? Tsumugi's route should have at least 6 episodes, if they cut too much we won't be able to feel the impact of the girls, the anime isn't bothering to extend the minutes and to make matters worse the opening and ending eat up a lot of the anime's time, they should at least increase the time of each episode like Re: Zero does most of the time so we have time to feel attached to each of the girls, I'm worried about the pace that Ao will receive and how much they'll rush Alka and Pocket, I'm not worried about Shiroha because her route isn't that long and she'll still have more screen time than everyone in the final routes but even so they should try harder to put the best and most important moments in the anime and leave the breast fanservice out of it.
| @bibiboyara the number of episodes is decided by the production committee, feel isn’t part of it. (It’s 26 episodes) |
| 2 episodes was not enough to care about her. |

| Nakige with so many skips and rush plot really feels weak and awkward comedy is nice tho |
| Are all the girls in this story ghosts? |
Shiroha gets more time in the OP than the other 3(4? 5? 6?) girls put together. Significant. Umi feels much more significant, particularly in the OPs and EDs, than just 'supporting' even if she is not a route. Tsumugi's song and the plushies and living? along in the lighthouse are some sort of clues to her backstory. I really have no handle on that. They seem to pushing an 'I see dead people" angle but it feels like there is something different to that twist. Shizuku is such a wonderful tease. |

| Lord Cruelty V "But my Dreams they're not as empty, as my conscience seems to be" |
| this was a cute episode. Shizuku’s still the funniest person in the room. Shiki’s cameo tho! |
Shiroha's face lighting up from receiving a watermelon bar made her reaction to Hairi getting her a melon one back in the Kamome arc even funnier.  Can't believe the gang couldn't collect enough tribute to satisfy the Paringles god and poor Tsumugi ended up getting sacrificed. |
| They both confessed their love to each other before Tsumugi disappeared the same night :( but obviously she hides a secret, and this old picture of her is reinforcing the mystery |
 |
| I love Kamome's route because of how self-contained it is, I love Tsumugi's route because she, Hairi and Shizuku get to hang out with the rest of the group/cast relatively often. Tenzen's little crush on Shizuku is pretty amusing. Shiroha and Tsumugi interactions are so precious, one of the most adorable scenes in the whole VN imo. The aunt walked in at the worst possible time, poor Hairi, she's really going to call his mom at this rate, haha. Ah, that part where they all scream their names in turn, such a clever and funny scene, one of my favorites in Tsumugi's route (and in the VN as a whole actually). Hairi and Tsumugi love confession(s) were pretty well made, you could feel all the emotions the characters wanted to convey really well. Last but not least, this is quite the cliffhanger, isn't it? We actually kinda got two cliffhangers to be more precise, one is the picture while another is that 'Tsumugi vanished'. Overall, one of the most light hearted episodes so far, lots of fun and summery vibes, plus good romantic and friendship moments :) |

| I'm going to be hopeful and say boy am I glad ain't nobody shown Hairi where the cemetery is, bro is speed running the dead girl rizz its ridiculous. |
 |
| I just noticed the opening credits have changed a bit since last episode. Umi now stops walking at a point along the beach. "Goodness! You get it ,don't you, Pairi-kun!" - Gigguk Boobs Shizuku seeing Hairi is a fellow Noichigo 100% enjoyer. And Kyoko please don't call mom I swear everything is wholesome. Tsumugi route is chugging along nicely. It's a shame that this arc seems to going faster than Kamome's route because I think the small, casual interactions between Tsumugi and the rest of the characters like Shiroha really make her as good as she is so half an episode with the rest of the gang is a bit short. It's a small shame we only get 2 episodes of the fun, wholesome section because the serious parts of Tsumugi's story are probably the heaviest among the main heroines. I like the romance being developed quickly though. And Shiki continuing to jumpscare people. |

saikyozero said: My god! The director of this anime is so good. I got goosebumps on that final scene. …no It is based on a game(visual novel with the same name) which is by far better |
Reply to nhkam
I’m putting this on hold. If the first 5 minutes are an indication of the rest of the season then I can wait until absolutely nothing else is on. The first 6 were very cool with the supernatural twist but this is looking like CGDCT. Also had I known about this ridiculous mid season restart I never would’ve started it to begin with.

| Really good episode. Hairi's relationship with Tsumugi and Shizuku is great. I love their interactions and love when they do stupid things, like building a paringles balcony. Finally got to see Ao and Watermelon Bar-san this episode, wish they could get more screen time though. Glad that they found the song Tsumugi loved, too bad it was in German. The confession was so good. Really glad that Tsumugi got to get her feelings out, now I'm really going to be sad when her arc ends. That cliffhanger is not okay. You can't just say that Tsumugi disappeared and end the episode right there. 5/5 |
| great ep confession /funny and sad ending... E8:9/10 |
| PLEASE STOP RATING!!! less than 4 means that you don't know how to judge Anime / Manga!!! best recom on https://www.instagram.com/otakuweek?igsh=em5kY3Q4NTVtNXlh or Discord https://discord.gg/vbZrk64uH7 |
| I love Tsumugi and Shizuku so much Great episode |
  Imouto suki Tsundere-Chuuni-Imoutos save me...   |
| Yeah I figured Tsumugi is a ghost or some other type of supernatural being after what happened to Kamome and then in this episode Hairi finding a pic of her that is probably 30+ years old and her looking the same. With Tsumugi going missing after they just confessed their love for each other, I hope that this is not the end because it feels like their summer and their relationship was just starting. On a side note Hairi could've "cried" on Shizuku's boobs as she offered them several times haha. |
| More ghosts huh, probably not as simple as that but why can’t these girls just be normal lol, I guess that’s asking too much in a Key work. Quite the fun episode tho, I really think these Key series are best when they’re doing SoL content, I thought Charlotte was best in its early stages too, and Tsumugi has made for a great mix of hilarious and adorable moments, part of that goes to Shizuku too, I guess no one else can hear her talking about boobs besides Hairi lol. And speaking boobs, that pillow stuffing scene was wild, Tsumugi became an oppai loli for a second there lol, funny scene but I can see why some wouldn’t be into that, otherwise everything between Tsumugi and Hairi has been really sweet and wholesome. I will say tho, it is a bit quick for the two of them to love each other, being the second episode of Tsumugi’s arc and all, when they first brought that up I was like “huh? already?”, but I can’t deny the scenes where Tsumugi is getting flustered are incredibly cute, so I’m fine with the romance even if it feels fast. It’s also nice seeing some of the other characters in this arc, I especially like getting to see Ao and Miki again, Shiroha fishing was pretty epic as well, I liked her little reenactment with Tsumugi on their first meeting. And lastly, I guess I already know the name of this red haired girl running around because people keep mentioning a Shiki jumpscare, I wonder when she stops being in the background tho. |
| hell yeah, the ending to the episode felt very Key like loving this arc so far |
| Dang! This arc can't even come close to the previous one. So Ao's gonna get the same 3 EPs then Shiroha would get the whole 2nd cour? |
Reply to VeniSkywalker
I think their relationship moved too fast and I'm worried about not knowing how young Tsumugi really is.
| @VeniSkywalker Yup. Pacing's definitely whack this arc. About how young Tsumugi is, idk about that. She has a picture in the shed that's suppose to hold antiques and it doesn't seem recent with those wears in it. The house in the picture's background also kinda resembles (maybe taken from another angle) that "tourist attraction" they visited last EP that's supposed to be abandoned "long time ago". |

| Tsumugi's arc does have a faster pace to it compared to Kamome's arc previously, but I have been enjoying how wholesome and fun it has been so far with Tsumugi, Hairi and Shizuku hanging out together. Their plan to make a small balcony made of Paringle tubes is certainly ambitious, but I do want to see it in its complete form. I'd still wouldn't want to step on it, though... Having the girls visit Hairi's house led to more amusing shenannigans that made Kyouko and Umi panic in comedic fashion. For me, I did like the moment where Tsumugi and Hairi confessed to each other while overlooking the beautiful sunset together. Scenes like these are always nice to watch. Sadly, the last scene does look to imply that Tsumugi is a ghost, considering that an old photo that was part of a collection in Kyouko's place did feature Tsumugi. Considering how emotion Kamome's arc was towards its conclusion, I'm expecting this arc of Tsumugi to be the same. I do look forward to seeing the more serious side of this arc fold out. |
| Shizuku is a fun character, while the oppai jokes aren't especially educated, it's hilarious how she always adds the word into conversations. the kids at the shop acted like they didn't hear her saying "Im just a pair of boobs". so these girls can interact with everyone on the island, but vanish when Hairi solves their problems, apparently Tsumugi's problem wasn't solved here. |
