Koharu is adorable, especially when she goes to school. Hiyori is still joyful as ever.

Interesting to see Koi show up with some screen time this episode. On the fishing side, we got to see some fishing equipment again. I think this show is trying more to flesh out character relationships than get serious on the fishing elements. Nonetheless, cute episode.

Well that they would get in different classes wasn't that surprising but the reaction towards it was great.
Also the father of Koi seems to be way to obsessed with fishing but it made for some funny moments.
It was nice of him to take them along fishing tho.

The show truly is a one piece of a cute, but i just can't help myself, its also very sad. Or i guess melancholic is the better term to use here. But they do counter that with a very vibrant cast full of very colorful characters, that is beyond denial, and a few really cool dads lmao.

+ as someone who isn't exactly big into a fishing, another fishing show that manages those parts to be very interesting too.

Another cute, wholesome and also a very educational episode.

Koi's dad and his obsession with fishing were hilarious, haha.

Koharu is just too adorable for words. :)

"Wow, so you actually have friends!" Lol. xD That was rude.

That pout face. <3

THis is some soothing OST.

Ooh, Hiyori thankfully has someone she knows in school: Koi Yoshinaga, her childhood friend, whom calls her Yamahi and runs a family fishing store. Koharu is the same outside and in school. The same infotainment continues as per usual, but Koi has a hidden anger built inside of her: her name in Kanji meaning "love" as opposed to the Koi fish, and has a dad whom is VERY obsessed with fishing. A "sorry, not sorry" dad, hah.

Koharu can be quite blunt with her innocent looks, and words can hurt more deep inside. Hiyori is definitely opening up her heart more to Koharu, which makes for some sweet moments (that ain't all Yuri).

A familial time between the 3 girls and Koi's obsessive dad to go fishing, and Koi sure knows how to come in style. A refresher for Koharu from Hiyori's beginner skills, and while Hiyori has upgraded her people skills from Koi's intuition, Koi herself didn't really like to go fishing and had to content with Hiyori's dad's cancer passing as well.

A good day to go fishing and spend some communal time together.

A bit of the Yuru Camp feels, but for fishing. More strange but unique Koharu whom still hadn't caught a single fish.

I was indifferent about the first episode but this one bored me and felt like it took an hour to get through, yeah this show just isn't really my thing sadly and falls in line with a lot of other CGDCT shows in that department for me.

Cute, I like how Hiyori and Koharu's relationship is developing, especially how Hiyori is showing her many places and some of her memories, seems like she has a pretty fun childhood friend "Koi" and the three of them went fishing with Koi's father who's crazy about fishing, they're already a nice trio xD

Another really wholesome and cute episode. Loved it.

The OP and ED are really good and fitting for this anime.

They are going a bit in depth in fishing, its nice.

Koharu and Hiyori were adorable in this episode too, especially Koharu she's just too damn precious. Must protecc.

We met Hiyori's childhood friend this episode, she's pretty nice too.

Seems like Hiyori and Koharu have already gotten pretty close as sister, nice.

Got loads of potential wallpapers from this episode too, here are some.


Haha Koharu feeling left out.


Omg smol Hiyori sugoku kawai I can't take it.


Also I LOL'd so hard at this, the way Koharu asked her with such seriousness lmao.

The trio is pretty wholesome. Looking forward to next episode.

The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama.
Feeling half happy, half sad.

So, I have a question. Is it a typical Kirara-style CGDCT at the moment, or is it just a hobby show like the Fishing Club and the Board Game Club?

Its unfortunate that Hiyori and Koharu can't be in the same class. The openings pretty nice and calm. The explanations for the lures sure was funny but very insightful. Seeing Koharu get jealous though was fun. Really feel sorry for Koi though having to take care of both the chores and the shop by herself. The fishing trip while proving fun also served as a great bonding exercise for Hiyori, Koharu and Koi and her dad. At the same time it was nice seeing the depth of the friendship that lay between Hiyori and Koi as well as the secret struggles that had happened between them in the past. Overall a pretty calm ep that while doing well to expand upon the developing bond between Hiyori and Koharu also did well to introduce new cast members in the form of Koi. As long as the series keeps up this balance of education, bonding and relaxing moments then i think this series will do really well. Such a cute ending theme though.

Ugh I never could get into fishing even when my brother in law would drag me along and when I had to go with my ex cause she and her dad went ALL THE TIME, I'd make them do all the work cause fishing is so gross.

But hey put a twin tail Loli, big boob energy girl or shy beauty and fishing together and I'll be like Capt. Ahab, baby!

This was presented so well much like in the manga, and I'm really glad about that. You can really tell how much this means to Hiyori. She really loved and respected her dad, so trying her hardest to not only be a good sister now, but to bring her sister to places her dad used to bring her too, took a lot of effort from her, and it was sweet to see.

Also Koi is a really great friend. For how she, even at that age at the time, realized the situation, and was doing her best to be there for a friend at a time like that. What an amazing childhood friend to have. Such a good episode.

The OP is cool. Koi Yoshinaga is cute as well. Her father is a fishing addict tho. Koharu is so fricking adorable. I love her so much. Foreign words attacking her in this episode as well. LOL.

Hiyori definitely loves and misses her father and I feel very sad for her loss but at least she has someone like Koharu who can try to fill that place for her. Another adorable episode. :3

The main trio has such a nice dynamic, from pouting Koharu to Koi and Hiyori, the childhood friends

Rip Koi for almost being named after the last fish her father caught, he sure is super addicted to his hobby

Great episode! We get to meet Koi, Hiyori's friend who owns a fishing shop. It also seems that Koi is angry about her dad's fishing addiction xD. When she was born, he arrived to the hospital 5 hours late and caught a big koi fish then named her Koi lol. Koharu feels left out of the conversation between Hiyori and Koi. It's nice to learn some fishing terminology whilst watching this show and Koharu is really funny and cute! It seems Koi feels sad that she couldn't do more for Hiyori when her dad died but Koharu made her feel a bit better but declared Hiyori her sister legally!


Looking forward to the next episode!

You know the fishing addiction is real when you want to name your child, the child that you missed getting born by 5 hours due to fishing, Koi. Still got the name, different Kanji, but still... the dedication.

Seems like a fun little show right now. I've done fishing in the past with my dad and I swear nothing sticked cause I was far too young, but it's nice to learn a thing or two here.

Koharu is definitely unique, even if she doesn't realize that herself yet. Even though Koi was suffering fromher Dad's fishing addiction, I think Koharu did a great job luring her in (pun very intended).

You can never go wrong with a comfy slice of life. Just like Yama no Susume 2nd season, the occasional tonal shift to a more serious matter works here for me also, especially as the characters generally grow closer.

Super good episode, Hiyori and Koharu started going to high school, to which we were met with a new character, Koi, who’s pretty much named after the fish because of her dad being a fishing fanatic lol. The lighthouse part was also really nice, loving the Hiyori and Kobaru moments like that. The rest of the episode was a fishing trip where we learned more about fly fishing, which is a type of fishing I haven’t done before but am down to try now, and we also got some backstory on Koi and Hiyori’s relationship, which led to a nice moment between them in the end.

We also got the OP and ED this episode and I really like them both, great visuals for an SoL and love the songs.

This is my thoughts exactly, I even went and checked to see if it was the same author as Koisuru Asteroid and it wasn’t, but the style is definitely reminiscent of it.

Such a wholesome episode. I totally loved it.
Koharu continues to be the heart of the show and Koi seems to be a fantastic addition to the cast so far. Her "I'm so done with my dad's bs" attitude is so funny to see xD

And as for the more "melancholic" moments, I'm also liking how they are being implemented so far.

There could not have been a better ending yesterday, since it was my birthday, if not to end the day with the vision as well as the first episode of "Vanitas no Karte (2022)", with a new episode of this one. Excellent for many reasons, you begin to discover a lot about the protagonist and her deceased father, you already begin to outline the character of Koi and also to know and witness the evolution of the bond that binds her to the character of "Yamahi", as well as a preparatory lesson on fly fishing is already beginning. What more could you want? Ah, a massive dose of cuteness and sympathy. The opening and the ending are pleasant, even if the opening reveals a few too many characters. Catchy soundtrack, I can't wait for the next episode of this relaxing and enjoyable show.

This series is already giving me comfy vibes almost the same way that Yuru Camp did and that makes me happy just thinking about it. =3

Hiyori and Koharu are settling in well at school, where we meet Hiyori's best friend, Koi. I already like Koi a lot, from how chill she was when talking about the different fishing baits to Koharu, to then going into a rant about how her father prioritised fishing over her own birth, hence the name she got. XD

Still, I did feel for her when she talked to Koharu about how difficult it was to help Hiyori in the past when Hiyori's father passed away and how she admired Koharu in how she can waltz into someone else's life super easily. All of the girls here can pull off a super cute smile, but Koi's smile hit home harder than the other two for me. It's certainly a precious expression from her. ^_^

I already love the OP style, with the song itself being very chill and upbeat, which is a great mixture, while the ED had a nice charm to it when it showed how much fun Hiyoru, Koharu and Koi were having with the bubble guns.

I fucking love these 3, but I can definitely say that Koi is my favorite so far. This really gives me Yuru Camp vibes, but with a tinge of sadness, I like that.

I lost it when Koi's father said he'll go on ahead first with the fishing, a not so good father, but gotta respect the drive for fishing lmao.

Smol Hiyori is so cute, especially that floof hair. Really looking forward to the next episode.

They went fishing with Koi's father, a fishingholic. Turns out that she decided to go fishing the next time they reunite.

Koharu: So you actually have friends? (With big smile in her face)

Few moments later:

Koharu: Im not really jealous of your friend, youre Minahi now, not Yamahi.

In the fishing scene:

Koharu: Dont stare at me, Im getting nervous here that someone's watching me.

Hiyori turns to Koi. Koharu was able to throw her loop.

Koharu: Why are you not watching me? Of all the moments??!

HAHAHAHA! OMG, I so love Koharu character, she represents the inconsistency for us, girls and women. She's definitely my best girl.
She's so handful, like Koi said. And oh, i like Koi as well, she's so cute

Cuteness and fluffiness aside, somehow, theres a hidden sadness in this series, it stings. But I love it, loveeee it.

If you love your CGDCT or just need a slower anime to wind down to this season, you can't really go wrong with this one.

However, Yuru Camp is really the only CGDCT anime that I like, and this one is nowhere near is good. Going to drop it here, I hope the rest of you continue to enjoy this.
