I agree!

Awesome detective work! You would make Victorique proud~

I really hope this ends with an extremely dramatic finale. Something awful and gory.

Such and awkward mix of emotions.


:l <- this one is more accurate.

I agree, there were some moments where the art quality was just ugh, and it is pretty damn sloppy considering how much I love Sunrise's animation most of the time... I was pretty much referring to the final scene, which I did like, but at the same time it came across as a little bit off as far as how they handled the feel of the moment.

I know, this is actually some great work for something done on a whim, you have my props!

Hmm, so this episode was all about the trip. Last episode's preview got me good. I thought it was going to be one of the usual beach episodes. Instead the preview this time apparently shows an onsen episode. And what was Natsumi about to say to Saki, hmm? Also noticed some quality issues for this episode, particularly how inconsistent their faces were throughout the episode. Quality issues aside, it was a nice episode.

The sudden drop in quality made me cringe.

But it was an okay episode.

@Sparvid: good job on that. A lot of people will appreciate them even if you don't see them say it.

As for the episode, not even the QUALITY could ruin this episode.

This was a very amusing episode. Really liked all their shenanigans on the boat. xD

Saki dreamt about the group going on without her and was down all the time. What a place to move to too. It really is very much isolated. Next episode we'll see the island itself though!

Yuka runs into the ocean without a second though and her leg gets cramped up immediately. Some guy on the island saves her and it looks like he really doesn't like "mainlanders" which makes Saki worried.

Nice episode, I had a good laugh when Yuuka turned on the light of her phone.
I'm looking forward to the next episode, I want to see more stuff of the island.

Wow, I agree that this was very interesting to see. Thanks a lot for this new perspective, pretty nice that most of the locations were very similar to irl.

The constant idea that Saki is going to be moving away really soon sure made this episode a little bit sad. =/ And she already has a bad image of the place thanks to that beach incident.

Wow, Natsumi sticking up for Saki at the end was touching. I would be surprised if she actually ended up moving to the island after all that effort not to. It would be more dramatic than staying together due to the power of friendship and then becoming idols blah blah.

The person (questionable gender) at the end was a bit harsh, certainly not a sensible introduction to tourists. Way to go save someone's life and then be a jerk about it.

"Sasuga Rin = I love you Rin" Stop rewriting the script rori for crying out loud!

I was afraid of the episode mainly because of the character at the end, but until the ending song rolled it was a pleasant surprise.

I really hope they will manage to come up with a solution. I don't care how badly it is written, they have a wish granting stone, make them stay together!

For a second I almost thought Natsumi would confess to Saki...Should remember toning down my goggles for this show. 4/5.

I echo these sentiments! With all the issues with animation and off-design characters, there is some really impressive background art in this show. It is a shame, however, the artifacts in my download are bad enough that I usually don't even notice problems with the quality! I wish this one was being simulcast!!!! (Is it just me, or have the quality of downloads declined in recent years? I keep getting artifacts in every show I download! Maybe its my player... :( )

But, as for the episode, WONDERFUL!!!!!! Such raw emotion! I sooooo wanted to hear a yuri confession!!!!!

Another show which looked misleading from the outside, thus nearly preventing me from watching it. I'm glad that that didn't happen (it's Sunrise- that alone should've been enough proof for me). Now to finish this hidden gem.

... Am I the only one who finds it odd that four kids are allowed to go off to an island without any adult supervision?

what a great ep!!! I think so far this is the best ep good mixture of drama and them just goofing around xD Also the animation was so spectacular compared last ep.

Probably one of the most enjoyable ep i ever watch in SoL anime.So thankful i found this hidden gem.

Just watching them exploring and having fun from the trip brings so much happiness to me.

With this enjoyable trip theres a sad reality that after Saki move out on that island they not gonna be together.... IF thats gonna happen in the end of this anime.

Well lets see.

I guess Saki is concerned about the move after all. Perhaps the "miracle" will be they she doesn't end up moving? If not, Natsumi may have no choice but to move right along side her.
