----------------------------------------
It was an alright episode as there are some family feuds going on. That other kid from the previous episode returns this episode and really wants to prove himself. I'm not that impressed but I do give him credit for trying to climb that hill.

What a strict parent though. Clan members contrast quite a bit in this show.

You know honestly, this show has been quite the disappointment. Nothing really happened once again.

What the hell happened to Mattis in the beginning? Dude looked like he's at the brink of despair with the way he was trying to eat the porridge. XD

I like how Ronja was the first one to start talking smack about the Borkas. She has good potentials to take over her father someday.

Lol'd at the robbers criticizing and make fun of each other using inept comebacks. They really need to work on their verbal assault skills.
Mattis' force laughing and trying to influence his group was hilariously lame! XD

Ronja meets Birk once again. This guy is quite meddlesome. >.<

Decent episode. Plot pacing is still very slow however. Won't Ronja grow up even more?

You might as well stop watching. The book keeps going like this for at least half. It will develop Ronja's and Birk's relationship from here on until. . . .the end pretty much.
+ They have to fill out A LOT because of the 26 episode run-time.

I liked this episode personally! I've always had a crush on Birk, and being able to watch this bratty version makes me so happy~! I already like Mattis's and Borka's relationship a lot! The way the bicker with each other in such a warm way is so funny!

Heartwarming as always~!
The 2002 Tokyo Mew Mew adaptation is not as great as you remember it being.

If Ronja does know what 'robber' means, then she'll get what Mattis said. She's the sanzoku musume after all.
The world shall know the truth soon.

That was a funny episode ^^
At the beginning, where Mattis totally spaced out and afterwards, when Mattis and Borka confronted each other and laughed for almost no reason ^^

The two groups meeting at the top!

I really liked Mattis's reaction when Ronja asked what he meant by taking stuff without asking! That conflict between a father and a robber!

A young Mattis and Borka having played before!

Mattis not that good with talking lol, the forced laugh by his group!

Ronja meeting Birk again in the forest. The pv looks cute with the fog!

I wasn't expecting to see young Borka and Mattis. That was awesome!

Ronja and Birk's interactions are the best (lol, her reaction to his wink).

Really looking forward to next episode. It'll be good. :)

I'm really warming up to the series. I do have to say I was disappointed the first couple episodes (probably because it was so different from my expectations), but the addition of Birk is great. I really love that smug look he gives, and the interest he shows in Ronja.

And next episode looks like a development episode between the two. <333

Is it bad that I like the Borkas more? They seem less... brutish. I love the clan feud development though.

I like the little personality quirks of the characters too. Especially Birk and his meddling. :D

Seeing Mattis and Borka as kids was cute too. <3

Lol yuup. That part was hilarious. Loved Ronja genuine questioning eyes at Mattis.

So I wonder why the two clans hate each other so much. It's like Romeo and Juliet where the Montagues and Capulets despise each other but they don't even know why anymore? Which is kind of sad since Mattis and Borka seem to used to like each other and play around before they were found out. Forgot if I've said this in a earlier episode or not, but looking forward to seeing the relationship between Ronja and Birk develop.

That 'moment of truth' where Ronja looks up at Mattis after the "taking without asking" question. Poor Mattis nearly chokes.

A "Your Mama" ep. (LOL)

We spent the majority of the episode with the robber stare-down. Not sure how things turned out the way they did, but there's always friends in the past yeah?

Is it possible for a kid, especially someone to has been living among robbers to begin with, to be so...innocent? And question "taking"? I guess Ronja has to join a raid first.

Love the show. Heartwarming and funny. You want to squeeze Ronja and you immerse yourself in her forest adventures.

LOL LOL LOL Mattis telling his guys to eat their porridge first! And Birk winking at Ronja!
Can't wait to see more of their relationship growing.

It's a really peaceful show and I personally love the slow pacing...it's a good break from all the other stuff on air.

Ronja's imitation of Mattis, possible highlight of the episode. Super funny. And Mattis making his men laugh at the end of the confrontation was hilarious!


Why does Ronja not have any shoes?
