Ah yes, more observing the sky at night for stars and galaxies.

Even with a party together, it looks like the girls were looking to discover more stars under the starry sky. And it's cool they were able to write an article together.

Honestly i had the feeling this episode was over in a flash.
I really enjoyed it but i wish it lasted a lot longer.

Seems like the club activities are working out fine despite being a club focused on two things.
Yuzu might not be a member but she was so much with the girls that she seemed like one.
Also Mira's sister helping out was funny.

Why is the rating so low? Yes, this isn't the next New Game, but Doga Kobo has never done bad SoL. It starts to annoy me that at the beginning of each season all shows except Hype AAA have a very low rating.

It is rare to see a star and observe it, and also a busy club activity.

Ah yes, introductions to the entire club members with Mira giving them nicknames to easily remember them (and thanks for helping us on the side too!).

Rock-picking is a thing, but then again, every stone has a meaning to it, too bad there's just too many for Mira.

More stars and galaxy sightings, this time with a telescope out by the river, that's why it's called "the Milky Way by the River". Seeing constellations in the sjy too is nice.

Fun Fact: the telescope used in this episode is in collaboration with Vixen the optical equipment manufacturer, so the optical telescope you see in this epiisode is a by-product of their catalogue of telescopes! It's even listed in the official anime Twitter's tweet: https://twitter.com/vixen_japan/status/1215649498585845760 / and the official Vixen website: https://www.vixen.co.jp/post/200110b/

Monroe-senpai a photgrapher taking candid shots of Mira for lewd Sakura-senpai HAHA, effectively stalker status :D
Not forgetting Mira's good friend Suzu who also has a lewd aspiration for Mira's older sister of the typical student council prez ^_^

And then in school, the astronomy and geology clubs combined, the geoscience club got recognized for their first efforts for a club bulletin that got famous quick, with some help from her older sister's publicity.

To relieve themselves for the big effort, fanservice came in quick under the stars. Monroe-senpai is lewd as always, unlady-like xD
And fo course, Mira still has a ways to go about being able to find an asteroid in the night sky. Being in love with asteroids.

Lovely episode, that I'm finding myself entangled in its CDGCT sweetness more and more.

I loved how they are actually focusing on stars. The word for 'milky way' in my language translates to 'the sky river'. I liked that comparison by mira.

Monroe senpai best girl confirmed.

Currently, lunar eclipse is going on and this anime kinda motivated me to go outside and see it so I am off to the mountains for now.

Looks like this series is going to be more popular than dice club which is really confusing to me given they have very similar premises of cute girls doing cute shit, building friendship through exploring the things they have a mutual love for and being SoL. Kinda saddens me Dice Club didn't get this same love.

Great episode and as someone who did astronomy/physics, I really appreciate the level of detail in the show, will have to check out the manga for sure.

We have to protect those smiles.

I really liked that episode. For the first time we got to see how the club acitivies work and although the interests in the club itself are split between space and stars and rocks and minerals, I get the feeling they will become good friends over time. They even got to introduce the others to their own interests, learning new things about minerals during the daytime and looking at the starts together at night time.

It also seems to me that the explanations to the different topics given are pretty solid. Although I am neither a pro in astronomics nor in geology it seems to me, that there is nothing, which is completely wrong. Otherwise that would be rather disappointing. So I'm looking forward to more of this, I really like the direction this is going. A feel-good slice of life show with interesting new facts.

Monroe really made enjoying herself at the hot springs sort of erotic, don't you think? XD

Aside from her lewd-like moments and Suzuya's cute fangirl moments, this was another relaxing episode, with the girls having fun with the barbecue and using the Vixen telescope to view Mars, Jupiter and the star constellations. Not to forget, learning about the different types of stones that you can find by the river was informative and enjoyable, too.

Even when the episode got to the hot springs, the girls still had fun discussing about the viewing of the moon and also got to know the older ladies who knew their club adviser, which was nice.

The best part of the episode was when Suzuya showed Mira her first bread reaction that got rejected. That's a shame, as I thought her panties-inspired bun looked tasty. =P

So relaxing and wholesome, this has such a strong start.

Club activities where we as viewer can learn about Astronomy and Geology, it's great. Besides that, I think the comedy is quite nicely done, interactions between the girls are cute, especially when they all become so exciting about either Astronomy or Geology. Suzu is interesting though... Panties bread.

Looking forward to more, bless you Doga Kobo for giving us another great SOL!

Great episode. Highlights for me:

-Weaving in info about geology and astronomy is really well done unlike a certain fitness anime last year which felt too much like infotainment.

-Turning her article in to a manga was a nice touch. Clever way to resolve it. I hope we see more of her manga and there's some side story to it or something.

-"Pantsu da ne". Biggest laugh of the episode.

-Hot Springs was a really relaxing scene which achieved what should be the main goal of any bathing / hot spring scene which is to make the characters bond through intimacy. However the secondary objective was kind of lacking. I would have liked to see a bit more boldness in showing off the girls. When one of the girls said how they could see Mira's butt, my reaction was "well we can't" *pout* ... What a tease that was.

I really like the general vibe in this show. It's pulling off the SOL really well, but I hope it can add a bit more. Either some adventure, romance, or drama.

7/10 right now. ("Exceptional" in my system)

I feel you on that. Saikoro Club was really great. How it integrated telling little stories about the characters through the playing of the games was some top tier storytelling. The show had some good emotional dramatic elements and a nice conclusion too.

Suzu-chan is so thirsty xD

Not gonna lie, I was a bit bored when they started talking about constellations and stuff but I admit the interactions between characters gave certain charm to those scenes. The second half with the Onsen segment was more entertaining tho.

Relaxing second episode overall.

I loved this episode, the girls make their welcome party to the geosciences club and they had activities on the side of geology and astronomy that were very fun and interesting, this gives me hope that the girls can coexist despite their differences.
Endou Sensei got away with it and made the barbecue that she wanted to do so much, the girls were very lively and Suzu makes her appearance to deliver the bread, since her family runs a bakery and Suzu helps with the delivery.
Suzu is always happy with pretty girls nearby and I agree with her that Ino is too adorable, her eyebrows are so cute next to that smile.
Mira and the girls get closer by getting nicknames, I liked it and it made me laugh a lot with Mari's nickname, without a doubt Monroe senpai as nickname fits her very well.
Anyway, the girls were collecting and analyzing rocks, Sakura is very good at explaining the differences and I never thought about why the rocks have different colors.
Then it was Mari senpai's turn and her telescope, the truth was something quite nice to see and I learned a lot from constellations, which I always confuse when I saw the stars and it was good to remember it. Mari pouting face was so cute, give her the telescope she wants, she deserves it.

The second half of the episode focuses on how the girls distribute the reports for the magazine that the club prepares, although Mira is the only one without a concrete idea, in the creative process she asks her older sister Misa for advice, but she is very direct and it hurts the feelings of her little sister and it is Suzu who calms the situation, the panty bread was hilarious, I hope Suzu made panty bread in different designs?
Finally Mira decides to make a comic thanks to what Ao said about her drawings, the way Mari typed in the laptop was astonished, she is very skilled.
The day of the delivery of the magazine, the reception of this was overwhelming, thanks to Misa who is the president of the student council.
To celebrate the success of the magazine, the girls went to hot springs, Mari was relaxing to the fullest and the rest of the girls were enjoying there bath.
Ino and Sakura taught us about how rocks affect the pH of water and the benefits to the skin.

I found this episode quite entertaining, the doses of sweetness were stable but I still liked that the girls got closer and their club could grow even though they share different sciences.

I knew that Reina Ueda was in charge of giving voice to Suzu, I suspected from the beginning, Suzu reminded me a lot to Miyako from Wataten, especially when Suzu said that Ino was very cute and the way Suzu reacts with cute girls are very similar, another detail that made me think about this was Suzu's voice when she was embarrassed, it sounded like Miyako and Gray, now I love this anime more.

So far I really like this euh, edu-moe fest of an anime. For sure at the moment my favorite of the season. I had rewatch the episode once again to fully embrace it, because once again the episode was over before I realized.

I really wish people were more invested into science instead.

What an adorable day buy the river. This seems very similar to Yuru Yuki.
Clearly there are other couples forming. There is quite a bit of factual details in the two subjects. That’s a good sign they did some research.

Going straight to the onsen ♨️ So early in the season, episode 2. Progressive. Not much side OO
The choice of water color was interesting. As they said, salt is the main ingredient, which adheres to the skin while bathing and prevents drying and the evaporation of sweat. It is characterized by being well-warmed. It is recommended for people with dry skin or people who have trouble warming up. I doubt the girls needed much help warming up.

Nice joint club activities. I enjoyed and learned a few things at the rock gathering stuff. Used to gather rocks too when I was a kid, so can relate. Never found those striped rocks though.

So Jupiter really looks like that on a telescope? wow.

I like how Mira turned her idea into making a manga to make the astronomy explanation more interesting.

And nice advertising by oneechan. ^^

looking forward to next week. :)
