The sea cucumber part was a little... uh... yeah haha.

I didn't expect Tama being a fujoshi to be a running joke but I'm glad because those are usually the part I crack up the most at.

This episode was awesome as usual. I'm loving this anime, I hope they make a second season when its over.

I didn't realize until the end that this was the obligatory beach episode haha!

"I'll appropriate you!" So cute XD The sea slug scene though, not so cute. It just felt a bit out of place especially when it squirted the uh...stuff.

"Ooh Kawafuji-san! Could be his gf."
*Tama doesn't show interest*
"Oh it's a man."
Fujoshi mode activate!

I'm guessing the kid with Kawafuji is the one who beat Handa in the previous contest.

I can understand why the sea slug was censored but I haven't figured out why they censored Naru's imagined visual of Handa with a close cut haircut.

Very good episode without any disappointments. All of the characters just fit together so well....

That sea slug and how Naru handled it was strangely lewd lol

Yeah, pretty obvious it was intended to be sexual, considering the censored white innards coming out and how Miwa said it would "make her an adult". Took me by surprise, considering how innocent the series had been until then.


Sigh... there was no 'innuendo' and nothing 'sexual' about the fucking sea cucumber. It is common in anime to censor disgusting stuff like cockroaches and centipedes, and managing to handle that disgusting stuff 'makes you an adult'; that's the joke. Now let's discuss how diving off a cliff (also a thing Miwa said is for adults) is also sexual innuendo. *rolls eyes*

Exactly for the same reason I mentioned above. Censoring disgusting or bizarre stuff is supposed to be funny, as in 'it's so weird we can't even show it!'. I hope this settles the ridiculous notions that some viewers have about these events.

Konomon!!! That was all he was thinking about.
Sensei's prized picture of someone being a historical figure xD

The beach!!! Tripping and blacked out three times.
The sea slug with that censor.
Tama losing it with all the BL stuff ^^
The ending was sweet how Sensei was worried and how they all hugged him.
A new guy!!! Maybe the person who got first place.

and it seems like his biggest rival has arrived to see him! wonder whats gonna happen
"Urushibara Ruka. The mannerisms and voice of a woman... No... More feminine than any woman. But he's a guy. Taller than Mayuri, but so very thin... But he's a guy. Looks great in a miko outfit...

Taking calligraphy too seriously and the girls thinking about relationships as high school girls do. And then laying down on Handa in a comedic matter.

Man, this reminds me of going to a lake at this time of year as one of the kids having fun.
A rocky beach is something completely different to walk on Handa, you should've learned that the first time :D
Highlights: Tama's fujoshi joke, with the perfect build up and ofc the seaslug innuendos, 0_o

And of course worrying for Naru to jump from so high, every right to be upset, but also a valuable lesson to care for others.

5/5 For being extremely well directed, handled and presented. Despite the comedic exaggerations, these genuine people simply having slight misunderstandings and fun.

Oh hai there Handa, I heard you like Konomon. Mind sharing some? XD

Lol'd so much at Naru's reactions when Tama said that Sensei might be in Long distance relationship. And all that flustered Naru, why is this girl so cute. >.<

Yeah, Tama's fujoshi tendencies was lol XD she was interested when she heard it was a guy.

Hiroshi's special attack Hiroshi critical was lol. XD What the hell? 8th grade syndrome?

Lolol Tama, stop! Your Fujoshi tendencies are really showing out now. XD And lol, Handa misunderstood the situation again.
Oh damn, he slipped again. XD

Did they just censored the sea slug ? O_O It was still a fun part and loved to see nervous Naru and Hina. :3 Lol she is used to it now? That was fast.

Oh lol dramatic scene turns in and did he seriously slipped for the third time?

Nice to see Sensei and the kids looking out for each other. Character interactions like these are lovely. :')

New characters! Kawafuji and Kyousuke. I wonder why they are coming to Handa's place.

Another fun and funny episode. So it was the first time Handa cared for someone else other than himself. Naru and the others really changed him. Kousuke and Kawafuji are coming to visit. I'm guessing they'll be surprised that Handa changed quite a lot. Haha!

Another adorable episode. So glad Hina's getting more lines ♥

Handa is totally one of them now, the end was hilarious when they all gang up on him and expect Hiroshi to join XD

Tama and her fujoshi fit was funny as always. They raised a good point though, I'd like to see a (sort of) love interest for Handa. At the very least a close female friend.

The sea cucumber kinda ruined the the "inocence" of this show for me. It was REALLY out of place.

Aside that, I like it overall.

3/5 episode (could easily have been a 5/5 without that scene).

OH GOD NO... a sea slug scene."This means you're an adult"... please stop, this is NOT that kind of anime!

Apart from THAT scene, this was another great episode. I love Tama's not so subtle fujoshi-ness and Hina's cuteness. And Naru's just as amazing as ever "I'll up-rope-ree-ate you!"

5/5

Ow before I forget... Konomon.

Is this what heaven is like? This episode was so calming and peaceful. The comedy was great, the character interactions were funny, and I just loved everything about it. This has risen to almost a 10 for me. This is a fantastic show.

Next week should be filled with even more hijinks with some new faces coming to town.

Konomon... KONOmon... KONOMOOOOOOOON!!! xD
I just died from that part xDD

I saw the recipe in the manga and I might try it soon since its easy to make.
Tamako's fujoshi moment is ridiculously funny, Handa thought that she have a fellings towards Hiro.... but no! xD
His triple slip in the rocky beach is pure hilarious!

Despite that he's a tsundere, I love his honesty towards to those who jumped to that sea wall in near end of the episode.

Its quite dirty when they blurred out the sea slug's extract! lol

Can't wait for the next episode, and I'm looking forward to Naru's "treasure ball" there ;)

Yes, Naru, show Handa that you don't accept any other girl as his waifu than you. Also, go 'rob' him.

"This beach is rocky! I expected it to be sandy!"
- "Sandy beaches are for kids!"

Handa gets one-upped by a kid. I never thought I'd see the day.

The sea slug scene's censoring made it look very lewd. I;m sure it was because of the creature's innards getting exposed when you squeeze it, but the image of something else was definitely there, especially with the whole "Now you're an adult, Naru" line.

I can't help but notice that the sea slug was censored in this anime, however, it wasn't censored in anime like Demon King Daimao.

Whatever though. Amazingly the least cliche beach scene I have ever seen. Not only did they got out of their way to make sure the girls weren't in swimsuits, there wasn't even any sand.

Also, sensei's blush was too damn kawai for this world.

This show is so perfect.

Yuck, I'm not even sure we have that big slugs in Poland, the usual black ones without shells are disgusting enough, blargh...

Sensei should die three times already, lucky for him it's a comedy.
And awww, Naru likes Sensei. Well, it's kinda better than in Usagi Drop because they are not "related" so I'd be okay with that. But they don't really have to include that, cute childish jealousy is enough for me.

Oh that's what I thought too when I saw him, the fact that he was with sensei's (best and only ?) friend and seems to admire sensei made me think of this, even if he looks younger than 18 (it was the winner's age if I'm not wrong ? too lazy to check haha)
Well if it's the case I wonder how sensei will react.

(will they live with him for a while ? if that's the case .... 3guys living together = Tama's brain will explode)
