----------------------------------------
It was a fun episode. The dodgeball game and baseball bat gave me some nostologia when I used to play the game as a kid. Some of those new kids introduced in this episode are pretty amusing with their sarcasm though.

But yeah, I thought this brings back some wonderful nostalgia.

Hey Naru, are you trying to be Tarzan??

OMG I have never laughed so much in one episode. This was the funniest episode to date. I lost it. I was literally bursting out in laughter here. Such an amazing anime, I'm about to up the score with this one.
The part when Hina hits her head on the floor xD

Great episode, those kids are funny.
And for the first time, excluding the one with the fishes, he did a great job with the caligraphy, I loved it.

What was that at the end? He didn't looked happy.

Well,he's returning. I would do the same,but because of the kids. I don't like kids. This episode made me dislike them even more. Except for Naru,she's the key to happiness.

Miwa and Tama wanting to see Handa naked was pretty funny.

The part where Handa and Hiroshi trying to deal with those kids was pretty funny.

Lol @ that Shingeki No Kyojin reference.

Handa was so immature and lol this ep XD We'll play Dodge ball XD

Hiro and Handa's reaction to Naru getting "bullied" was so lol XD

His phone falling in shit was friggin ROFL

The kid's telling Hiro to get on his knees was so hilarious XD

Getting threatened by calling the police for child abuse was lol

Dat Tarzan play XD

The "Star" calligraphy at the end looked really nice ^^ Love it when he draws like a madman XD

But the end was :O He's leaving? Drama incoming :(

Hahaha. Lol at Hiro and Handa when they saw Naru and said "that looks like fun".

The line... "Akki is so mature." Hahaha.

The Tarzan scene was funny too since Hina pushed them.

And looks like we are getting more plot that he is returning. Dang cliffhanger.

No warm bath for you Handa-sensei XD.

LOL, he has to heat up his water on his own using wood to stir the fire in that heater thing...

Handa-sensei just said he'd like a gas heated bath more than a wife... poor Naru... her dreams of becoming his waifu are starting to fade T.T

The type who ends up dying alone... it's really sad since I also used to think like that...

Naru's such a nice and kindhearted girl to come to his side so fast :3

LOL, a naked pic of him as reference for her manga XD.

Hahahaha, dat cooking skill of his is surreal...

Damn... Hina just had a breakdown and it seems that Naru's getting picked on by kids from another village... wtf...

LOL, those kids were about to get their asses kicked by Hiro XD.

HAHAHAHAHHA, Handa-sensei was looking really evil until his cellphone went flying and landed into poop XD.

Awwww, Naru just to hit in the head and face planted in the ground T.T

Dat dodgeball game though XD.

Hahahaha, Hina just pushed them to their deaths.

The first aid that Naru provided was hilarious XD.

The giant part reminded me of Shingeki no Kyojin :o

Damn, I was pretty sure that he was really close to his house, but that panicking and thoughts of dying in the forest alone XD with the feelings he felt when they came to rescue him was priceless to see T.T

OMG, he's going back home starting next episode... NOOOO!!!

Ahh another great episode.
The middle schoolers trolling sensei, adults acting like kids, an attack on titan reference
and my weekly dose of Hina. I laughed so hard when Hina started banging her head on the floor to get the adult's attention. Sensei also found some inspiration on his latest work but it looks like he is leaving now...

Dang Handa has bad luck XD I would be like him though, climbing all the way up and then letting go just because a caterpillar crawls on my hand. But he always finds inspiration in the strangest places. I love laying down and just look at the stars too, so relaxing. But oh no, what's that? He's going to return? Already? ;_;

meeting my expectation, this episode is really funny X_x

can't expect how he cut the cucumber like that hahaha

part when naru's getting bullied (especially dodgeball) is amusing, how he could be satisfied by throwing ball to kids and how hillarious he is when a kid hit the ball with the bat LOL

and when he's alone after falling is LOL haha, he's like a kid though

i like this episode's calligraphy the most. It was only a simple switch in colors but it's the simplicity that really won me over.

Mmmm way too many punchlines and exaggerative actions in just that playground scene for my taste. Nonetheless a good episode.

What is just be or was this episode extra funny.
Having to use firewood the hot water machine breaking. Those termites on the village leader's head xD
Tama and Miwa wanting to see Sensei naked lol. Tama needs those pictures for reference!
How sensei chopped the cucumbers ^^Hiro is a lot more mature than sensei! Sensei saying the miso is bad after Hiro tasted his.
Hina asking for help, those hits to the floor! Hiro and Sensei makes a good duo!
Sensei taking it personal with the bullying kids.
That adult tactics, the straight man role by Hiro. Even Hina and Naru found it immature xD
The phone got hit into no man's land (poo), that was also funny with Sensei's reaction and that censorship.
Using dodge-ball to hit the kids.
The Tarzan game, Naru barely making it xD Sensei trying to pull the ivy then Hina wants to stop them and push them all down. Lol at that first-aid by Naru. Hitting that herb with a stone.

So hilarious and fun. Still my favorite of the season, good stuff. The calligraphy he did at the end was actually really good, hoping it gets him somewhere.

So he's going back home? I really hope that's not the case.

Another amazingly funny episode!

I love how immature Handa and Hiro can be, but they always have fun with the kids.

That ending though! OMG Handa can't go home! What about Naru? She will be so sad if he leaves her.
So glad that I'm not a huge manga reader, because the manga readers WHINE WAY TOO MUCH and have to RUIN every adapted anime for the ANIME ONLY WATCHERS!

Hmm. Not sure, this episode felt kind of awkward to me. Maybe I'm just letting Handa's confusion get to me.

That rabbit - I'd be willing to bet there was Adventure where it was going.

I loved the childish fun in this episode. I loved that little bunny that scared Handa. I loved that 'being eaten by titans' part. I loved that scene where he found the spare key to his house. I loved his 'star' calligraphy, it was stunning. If that doesn't win the grand prize, what will? I loved... heck, I just love everything.

I DON'T WANT HIM TO GO HOME YET!

Last week was no episode so no Naru. Such emptiness on my heart.

Lol'd so hard at the fujoshi with the camera. She was so prepared.
Sensei as always has bad luck but at least he got some inspiration and his writing at the end was pretty cool.

Sensei has to stay or riot.

Bath and those girls... Then cooking with that guy.

Kids from neighbor village showing delinquent, because their place got taken by junior high group, too. lol~ they know that megane boy.

Wow, "Tarzan" game. The rope really broke.

Falling from the cliff because of getting excited about the moment of wanting to do calligraphy. He didn't fell that much, though, and getting found. I don't get what he wrote...

The moment he's going back will come?

Another great episode! This show never fails to make me smile

Sensei and Hiroshi VS the village kids was hilarious. The phone landing in the poop did me in.

Watching Naru freak out over the thought of Sensei being in danger in the mountains was too adorable

That ending! Can't wait to see what happens next. Naru will definitely use her birthday present from Sensei to keep him with her, and the tears will come. Can't wait!

That's what I'm thinking. I always wait for this anime every week and.. I can't believe it's on episode 9 already.

That ending though, I can't wait for next week!

And Sensei with Hiro's battle thou xD So hilarious!

Insupireeshon!

6/10 for this episode.
Isayama Hajime should be awarded The Manga with The Highest Inconsistencies of Characters' Appearances.
He keeps performing multiple plastic surgeries on those Shingeki No Kyojin characters in a SINGLE chapter.
Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga.
Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month.
Patiently awaiting SNK TV/movie/OVA anime-sequel.

The one week wait was totally worth it! It's one fuckin hilarious episode.

Tama sneakily holding a camera to capture naked Handa was epic XD she never failed to make me laugh.

Hina took her crying to the next level by banging her head like crazy XD

The bully and Tarzan skit were hilarious too. The kids really trolled Handa there lol.. and again another awesome looking calligraphy by Handa. He didn't look like it but he really is a master calligrapher.

Next week he's going home, I hope Naru and others come along with him but it seems that it's not a happy occasion. Maybe his father is sick?
