Why must Non Non Biyori episodes end so fast? Another long week ahead of us...

Hotarun is still as gay as ever, she is pretty obsessed with her beloved senpai. Go girl! 4/5.

5/5

Wow, the authors have listened to my earlier appeal ... LOL
Episode that much more fun narrative in the first phase, while in the second set, but thanks to Koma-chan and Ren-chon you save! Plot enough, without a hitch.
Drawings and animations sufficient BGM nice.
All the characters have proven themselves, the brother of Koma and Natsu, is growing. XD
Scenarios well made, cute puppets made ​​by Hotarun! : 3
Not the greatest as epic but a nice 5/5 deserve it!

I speculate that the strong
performance of Non Non Biyori in terms of Blu-ray and DVD sales will justify a
second season, and that is what the producer will announce at the end of the
year.


Since this season of NNB is 20+ episodes long my hypothesis is that since they will cover most of the material of the manga their aim to make a movie at best, an OVA at least, wth 100% original content. They do not need to make an hour+ long feature, or are the days when they packed two anime movies into one ticket over?

@Any knowledgable member about Amazon points

Do these points represent the number of pre-orders they currently have?

And I'm pretty sure Non Non Biyori will do well! Since it is one of the shows that has gotten the most attention for its excellent execution this season along side the big hitter shows and the new shows like StB and Aoki.

And.... are there any confirmations about Non Non Biyori having 20+ episodes? MAL has it for 12 episodes. O_o

To be honest, she probably could fit inside, at least without all those dolls in there. In fact the dolls probably take up more space than the real Komari. Worrying thought, that.


Since this season of NNB is 20+ episodes long


Pretty sure it's 12 episodes, actually.

@Any knowledgable member about Amazon points

Do these points represent the number of pre-orders they currently have?

No - the points at the time of release are the estimate of the sales the release will get in the first week. The figure on the listing that was posted above is the cumulative point total which can only go upwards and gradually climb up to that total figure. The figure most people talk about is the prediction figure, which extrapolates based on the points accumulated over the past week to predict how many points it will have on release day. For Non Non Biyori the blu ray figure is 4598 and the dvd 637 for a total of 5235. The blu-ray was higher than that for a while but has dropped due to a rank drop on Saturday (which happens for this series every week) being particularly steep this week.
Both sets of figures are updated once every hour.

Hi kuuderes_shadow. Thank you for the clear explanation. That helps.
What I was reporting above were the 最新累積ポイント (latest cumulative points).
But you say that people usually talk about 最終予測累積ポイント (predicted final
cumulative points). And I certainly see why the predicted first-week sales is the
more interesting number to quote. In the future I will certainly mention the
最終予測累積ポイント when trying to gauge how well a given series is doing.
Right now I am still early in my process of trying to learn how to use Amazon
Stalker.

最新 = saishin = latest / most recent / newest
最終 = saishū = final / last
予測 = yosoku = forecast / predict
累積 = ruiseki = cumulative / accumulated
ポイント = pointo = point / points

10:04 "Non non!"


Ren chon actually says "non" quite a lot, thanks to her habit of adding 'n' to the end of the sentences. I wonder if that's where the series' name comes from. Other possibilities that I can think of include it sounding similar to 'nonbiri' (relaxed) or 'nonki' (carefree). Any other possibilities? Has it actually been confirmed?

According to the Japanese Wikipedia article for Non Non Biyori, when describing
Renge, they say
語尾に「のん」をつけるのが口癖。
which basically means that she likes to add "non" to the end of her words. There
is no explanation of what "non" means or why she does it. It can be thought to
be her trademark or habit or pet phrase. In anime, it is often the case that a given
character has a habit of speaking along these lines.

Warning: The Wikipedia articles are full of spoilers. So I am always cautious about
what material I take from Wikipedia and post here. In this case, I think it is okay.

Another webpage said,
す時、語尾に「のん」「○○なのん」「○○なんな~?」という語尾を多用するのが口癖。
... which basically means that she will arbitrarily add "...nanon" or "...nannaa?" as
well. So it is not just "non" that she adds, apparently. But "...non" is what is
most often mentioned, and you can find this repeated many, many times on the
internet. There is never any discussion of why Renge does it or what it means.

As I write this, they are halfway through broadcasting Episode 7 in Tokyo. You
can see five still images here: http://nonnontv.com/story/s07.html

A very nice, '4/5' episode this time, just not quite up there with a couple of the previous episodes. Of course I found the reveal of Hotaru's Komari plushie obsession funny and it put a grin on my face, but perhaps it felt a bit predictable/typical of the show?

Ah well, the 'playing house' game was funny and, as others have noted, the animation with the fireworks was brilliant, the sparkles and the smoke looked great!

My slight nonchalance to this episode may just be a side-effect of watching nothing else atm. I'll probably dip back into Mirai Nikki for an episode or two before I continue this series. :)

Episode beautiful and fun as usual. Sympathetic narrative, finally returns home for Koma and his sister Nattsun. Storytelling with Saburu rewriting, but ven Renge and Hotarun not disappoint. Drawings and fantastic animations, scenarios excellent in their implementation, the end card is beautiful, with that background that on a rich green valley.

This show keeps getting better and better. The ghost part was a bit boring, but apart from that it was pretty funny and amusing. 4/5.

So Hotaru is obsessed with Koma, huh? I mean, all those plushies... I wonder now would my best friend react if he came to my place and discovered a load of plushies that look like him.

The scolding part at the beginning also was funny. I must say I like this show altogether. Maybe it won't become my new favorite thing, but I like it better than some other similar SOLs, like Kiniro Mosaic for example.

I respect your opinion as long as you respect mine.

While we buy plushies, Hotaru makes herself an endless supply of Koma plushies. Renge wanting to play house lol. I thought it was pretty cute.

That test of courage was hilarious. When Komari falls in the box and she can't get up xD

I'm curious if the brother feels happy with his life. He's expressionless, always serious , never talks.
