gfsdfgsdgsdfgs said: I didn't expect to cry from this series... Wow. The Ren and Honoka segment was so great. It perfectly captured the wonder, kindness, and adventure of childhood friendship as well as the immense sadness that comes with it. When you're friendships are dependent on circumstance and specifically your parents these things are frail. It was so beautiful seeing the two meet and naturally gravitate to each other, Honoka must be one of the few kids as young as Ren is that she's gotten to see. In mere moments they were best friends. And while in the moment I did think the Ren face shot went on too long, it was pretty good in that it totally gave off the feeling of Ren not understanding what had happened. How could her new best friend be gone, like that? She was sucked away from her boredom sitting by the fan into a life of waking up early excited to see her and just like she came she was gone. When all that finally hit her and she started to cry and make the small but emotional noises she did I cried with her. It conveyed it all so well. And after a week of boredom by that fan again she finally got that letter and the amazement all came back. Just absolutely awesome. I totally agree with every observation you've made! |

| I was excited to notice that Hikage's eyes had the same shape as Renge's. However, she still resembles more to the eldest sister. I was wondering why Renge's hair has such a different colour from her sisters', though. Maybe it's a way to illustrate that she's different... I think I should watch more episodes before driving a conclusion,but I have a feeling that Renge is that kind of person that doesn't easily show their emotions while they do have a sensitive heart. |

Volume 5 of the manga has initial character designs in it. From the translated version of Renge's page: I'm drawing her as a nice country girl, so black hair would probably fit nicely with that. If we can only show hair as white in the magazine, then I think silver works, too. (odd that argument, given that Hotaru and Hikage - plus a few very minor characters - get drawn with black hair just fine) then in a looking back segment: Her final hair color is the result of a battle between my first editor, who suggested gold, and me, who wanted silver |

I really appreciate it! ππ Now that I know the reason why Renge's hair is different from her sisters' I realize there was no hidden meaning after all π. |

| this anime is a masterpiece |
| My God. Renge and Honoka are so cute. |
| It's time for their summer break after they eat their school's watermelon Natsumi's face was hilarious Renge's other sister came back didn't expect that to happen well since it was summer it was expected and she found a new friend while she's at it Sadly she has to leave and they really took the time to build up that emotional scene for Renge I really felt bad for her but luckily she sent a letter and Renge got a chance to send one back that was nice I can slowly see how this series stands out. |

| I nearly cried with Renge at the end there. What a sad moment that was. |

| Best episode so far. I love how full of emotions that last half was. |
 |
| I'm late here but this is such a great episode |
 |
| Ufff, poor Ren-chan, no words, just emotion. A little bit heavy but still, she's adorbs. |
it’s never too late for life ... to go horribly wrong. . . afff~  |
| I hate that grandmother. Who closes the door like that to a first-grader after telling her that the reason she was so excited and happy for suddenly disappeared... poor Renge :( At least the ending was happy, but she has to wait a whole year until then! I really wonder if we're going to see her again. |
Come on man,where is that Noragami season 3 masterpiece.We want it, Bones! |
| Renge absolutely melts my heart. |
| OωO |
| Man that was heart breaking. Must be hard living somewhere with hardly any people and wanting just to be around people your own age. |
| This episode was a screenshot heaven. I'm happy for Renge because she made a new friend. She and Honoka had so much fun together. Unfortunately, Honoka had to leave all of sudden. Poor Renge. But I'm sure they'll see each other again next year. <3 |

| What a sweet episode. Renge finally had a friend to play with that was her age. Seeing them run around, explore, and just being together really warmed my heart. Renge finally had a reason to be proud of where she lived. I was crushed to see Renge so sad that Honoka left early. She didn't deserve that. But at least she appears to have a pen pal now Honoka sent her the photo of them together. It was so sweet. Overall, a very cute episode. I hope Renge can see Honoka again soon! |
| Yep, the shot of Ren-chon starting to cry made me cry as well. Just like last time. Great scene. I love the way she grabbed Nee-nee's leg and pulled herself closer, all excited. |
 |
| Bro I'm out here just watching this show to feel better, why they gotta make me tear up like that π |
 |
| Made me think of my childhood when my friends had to move away from town. I used to live in a small town with lots of hills and farmland. It's been gentrified since then. |
| What a lovely adventure, Renge showing her new friend around and taking photos of the amazing countryside. It turned out happy in the end, despite Honoka leaving early and Renge being sad. The letter was a great touch. |
| Rewatching this again. This is probably the best episode from this franchise. |
