LOL, Hotaru bringing out the trash can.

Saya's rage was amusing. I kinda expected the comedy would be over the top this season. Also nice to see Hotaru with long hair during her earlier days!

Hotaru in brat mode and she was just as bad in her behaviour as she is now, it's still funny to look at her behaviour tho.
Also Saya winning the game was expected.
That game had an anime years ago.

¡Thank you!¿Would you recommend Beyblade? Tell me.
Sorry it's been so long ago since i saw this that i can't give you a proper recommendation about this anime.
I remember that i liked it but it's partly youth sentiment for me.

I recommend beyblade. I never watched it Japanese, but I remember liking all of season 1, season 2 was ok for.the first half not as good the second half. The 3rd season is as good as the first. Each season is about 50 episodes though

The toy they were playing looks funny. RIP Kokonotsu's left foot. That must have hurt. Young Hotaru was nice to see. She always loved sweets.

Hey, I came here to laugh and have a good time with candy fact not to feel sad. Did not expect a Hotaru flashback, this was nice for a change.

Some Beyblade action there but not many candies during the first part of the episode. The Beyblades can count since they can buy them in candy stores I guess.
Futari wa Milky Holmes was a mistake

Little Hotaru is cute and as over the top as her grown up self. and she had the crazy eyes back then too,

Poor Kokonotsu, those attacks on his foot were overkill. I'm glad to not be the only one who was reminded of Beybalde with the beigoma.
Little Hotaru was adorable. A bit sad the old man eventually had to close the shop, but at least Hotaru's enthusiasm regarding Japanese sweets managed to move him.

Ouch, and here I thought that Kokonotsu will just "suffer" that pain from the Beigoma toy once. And then comes the story of Hotaru's chilhood and whoa the story is so good.

So far as playful as always. Saya winning was kinda a no-brainer and Hotaru's figure has already established it's own image :P

Also RIP Matsumoto Sweets... :/

Still not that great, but much better and it was pretty funny, the best episode so far. Very predictable Saya's win and lots of focus on Hotaru's body =/ Little Hotaru is cute, but still the same arrogant and obsessed with dagashi, quite sad ending. Always liked the little accent on Hotaru's "mochi-no-ron", pleasant to hear how confident she is.

"Beigoma" kinds of reminds me of a local Traditional Game called "Gangsing" in our Country, the history maybe dated from "Japanese occupation-era" back then and "Beigoma" got adapted into this "Gangsing". But the real history is quite unknown (some said It dated from Colonial era)...
And believe me, It doesn't look pretty when It lands on your feet. Not to mention, our "Gangsing" have dull nails instead for the spinning axis so It'll probably hurt more...

God that was childhood...


Also Young Hotaru is quite cute... and that Heart-warming Ending

The one part that I liked on this episode is when Hotaru called Kokonotsu and teased him about her liking Shikada Dagashi. This is because she is reminiscing about the past Dagashi store from her own town that has already closed and land for sale. A bit sad but Hotaru smiled and accepted it because her love for sweets will never be tarnished!
Poor Kokonotsu! got badly hurt his left foot three times!!!
playing Beigoma is fun just like BayBlade! lolz
Too bad Hotaru has another layer of shorter skirt with her!
Ultimately Saya-shi won the beigoma!
I laughed so much when the part of the ero saxophones OST started because Kokonotsu almost had n upskirt peep from Hotaru but was busted an punished by Saya!
5/5.

Couple things I didn't like here.

Mostly as mentioned, Saya winning as per usual, but getting little comedic payoff for it.

Oh, sure, Hotaru ass shot. But on that note, I can't remember Coconuts being overly pervy from first season. Or it was a lot more toned down and innocent anyway.

Didn't really get all mushy over the "heartwarming" aspect either. Going back to the common criticism, if this was a 24 min run time, you could have done a lot more with it. Like building up the relationship between loli-Hotaru and the old store keeper, giving a greater emotional payoff when the store closes. Hell, could even give Hotaru more of a back story.

What we got was Ok, but I think there was missed potential there. Particularly as this show, to me, is a lot about being young and enjoying the little candies that you can get. I would loved to have seen more of what made Hotaru, Hotaru.

Besides eating a lot of candy resulting in a pair of sugar-tits.

Really lovely pacing in this episode, and that backstory was quite interesting yet sad to see that the shop was gone in the end!

Still quite lovely, let's see what's next.

The first part was hilarious; Kokonotsu getting his foot murdered two times, Saya winning without knowing what she's doing and Kokonotsu getting his foot murdered a third time for staring at Hotarus ass.

The second part was nice, but a little sad. Little Hotaru loved dagashi as much as older Hotaru does and even managed to get the grumpy old shopowner to smile.
