I wanted to scream 'HANDA-SENSEEEIII' right now.

Poor Naru.
Even though it's another fun and interesting episode as always, the ending though... Ugh.
2 more episodes. Great anime are ending now.

Nice, heart-warming episode. Sei-chan taking in all the sights and savoring them, knowing that this will be his first and last festival in the village.

Haha, if he'd gotten the chance to tell them, I would've expected Naru to use her 'Sensei will do anything only once' coupon to get him to stay, but to no avail. Would've made a really emotional scene though -- "You promised! That you'd do anything...! *tears up*" *sound of Yulin's heart breaking*

Sigh, next episode will probs be the entire village finding a way to contact Sensei and get him to come back, geez... Sensei could've at least left a note at his door saying that he left, so that the village folks won't be worried. Actually, he may have told the village chief to tell everyone in his place, but I'm still a little mad at him for not saying goodbye. Can he even imagine what kind of heartbroken expression Naru will have on her face when she finds out?

Oh and gotta love the scene when Miwa asks Hiro if he has a girlfriend. Just something to note: Seishuu's face instantly relaxed when Hiro said he didn't. Tama looks at Seishuu. Tama the Seihiro shipper, who never misses the shounen ai moments (●´ω`●)

ugh they're totally teasing usss

Another great episode! I can't believe Handa is leaving without saying anything to at least Naru!

The end was so sad when she saw that his house was empty!

Only 2 more episodes, and I hope that he realizes that living on the island is much better for him than living in Tokyo!
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!

I have a feeling he is only planning on leaving for a few days. I don't see Handa as the type to leave permanently without a word.

7/10 for this episode.
Tama best girl.
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.

He'll back because he didn't say any "goodbye" words to them all

I don't want to feel the next episode :(

Graaah Hina and Naru are just way too adorable (´ ▽`).。o♡

LOL Handa thinking he can play because he read basketball manga XDXDXD I expected him to fail but I didn't expect it'd be because of that.

Tama's appearance were short but they were all hilarious as usual!!
"I wish they'd blow up" ROFL

I thought there would be tons of feels coming but I get the feeling next episode is just gonna be hectic with Naru and the rest trying to find Handa. The feels would most likely come only on the last episode. On that note it's very sad that this anime is ending soon.

The festival was a fun and nice scene!

That basketball skill Sensei has...even Micheal Jordan couldn't have those skills!

Feel bad for Naru, Sensei left and he never finished that job for the shrine...

two more episodes remain, I wonder what will happen next!

Woah, that's no way to leave, sensei! You coward.
On the other hand - maybe it's better for Naru that way, too.

Well, but just because he leaves now, doesn't mean he'll never go there again. He could visit in the summer holidays. Even city people like to go on holidays to the country side.

Ah, the festival looked so nice. I really wish I'd be able to go to such a festival, they look so nice in anime. With all the lanterns and booths and fireworks.
But then, when I think of our local festivals - they'd probably look nice in anime, too. Or like, christmas markets. And in the end you're just being shoved around by people, there's crappy music playing everywhere, you have to be careful not to get anything stolen and food and drink is overpriced.

Sen...sei?

Why Sensei? The title said that you would go all together :(
The ever lonely sensei made friend and now he's leaving them without a warning. He's such a shy tsundere. Well, I'm sure he'll come back after that contest. He'll win and realise that he can only write like this in that village :)
Yeah, I'm sure.....

The two little girls were cute in their yukata. Made Naru look more girlish :P
Tama is still as crazy as ever. Love her.

Soooo sad.... :[ Handa leaving without telling anyone. Even though the fireworks scene was magnificent, I couldn't help but get a little teary during it since Handa was gonna be leave soon. Not to mention, the OST was incredible during that moment.

Haha, despite that though, this episode was still incredibly heartwarming. Handa finally gets to enjoy a festival while joining Naru and Hina for it. :D

And lol at Handa's basketball skills. Your talents have yet to be tempered Sensei! xD

My guess is that he will leave temporarily and find that he can't write his calligraphy when he is away from the Island. He actually didn't need to tell them he was going since Miwa was able to read it just from how he was sitting (she knows him pretty well--Miwa always best girl!). But other than his calligraphy he really doesn't have much to take him away from the Island, he doesn't have friends aside from his manager, he's not really integrated into any community. Really, the island is more of a home to him than anywhere else.

That festival was fun. Naru and Hina in yukatas are so cute. Handa tries a free throw and fails. Hahaha! That one was to be expected. Tama didn't get her manga. Haha!

It makes me so sad Barakamon is ending in two episodes... This is hands down the best summer anime for me. Barakamon is one of those series you never want to end... So heartwarming and touching... Hope Handa is just leaving temporarily! Really can't wait for next week's episode!

I am gonna cry next episode. And its so hard to see Naru crying in next week's episode. Nice episode. The fireworks were cool. That nurse was pretty damn good.
Episode 11 will be emotional. That ending

Sensei pls stay. My feels are not ready.
A drama has a progressive thought, an emotional climax and a resolution, but our lives aren't like that. All we get day after day, are a bunch of vague anxieties that are never really resolved.

This Show is sooo great-definitely in my top 5 of the season.. Must be at least third.

Amazing episode as always, poor Naru.. Sensei didn't even told her or anybody else that he's leaving.. I just cant wait for the next episode, Hopefully Handa will come back (we all know that that's what will happen, don't we?) The feels ;_____;

Sensei probably doesn't realize the impact he had on the village, or he doesn't want to face the sad goodbyes. He'll come back though when he realizes what he's lost, or some shit.
