To tucked in or out? Such a difficult decision to make.

Meh.
Still good, but it felt a bit lacking...
Not enough Kamuri and Tama-chan...

I hope we'll see more of the best girls in the next episode.

Hana's normal pyjamas are nice, but the Shark pyjamas is on a whole different level of awesomeness! XD

Apart from Hiroe's dilemma of having a top either tucked in or out of the skirt, this episode didn't have as many comedic moments compared to last week, but it made up for that in terms of exploring more of gap years, with Hana's talk with her sensei being very thoughtful.

I did think for a second that Eiko mentioned Hana's gap year, but she actually was referring to Shion's unemployed gap year instead. Along with Hiroe, we have 3 characters who are having, or in Hana's case, had their ronin years. Either way, we did have a nice amount of time dedicated to Shion and Hana talking a lot about Shion's gap year, along with a small flashback with a long-haired Hana, and of course, Shion's lovely tits floating in the bath. She even a nice taste in her bra and briefs set too. While Hana's undies set looks cute, Shion's set looks pretty sexy. =3

Nice episode overall and the ending card is now my favourite so far. =)

Ahh it's almost. I mean, the scene when eiko mentioned about gap year. I thought that's about hana, then it actually about shion.

Shion got some airtime again. As the one who favourited her, i'm so happy. And I suddenly want to see hana in long hair again

The shark onesie reminded me of Yuru Yuri and the legendary Kyouko tomato.

Cute as usual but with more backstory focused on Shion this time. Nice to see.


Yeah I saw that too but also the shark costume in Hinako Note .3.


Well, gotta watch that next then.

Thanks for the rec.

Also, does Shion always wave like that when the ed song is finishing up, or is it special for this episode? I hope I haven't missed it all these times if it's always been there.

There's a different character there every episode.


I still think I've been missing it either way, but thank you. Damn!

Hana-chan is so worried that her school friend might find-out that a year gap which can be considered as "Ronin" but good thing Shion-chan made her realize that it was not a big deal! And I think that Hana-chan's three friends wouldn't mind at all! Those three are really her true friends.
4/5.

A more quiet episode. The shark p.j.s are the best, but how can one sleep with the tail and dorsal fin. Ha ha ha.

Good episode, but the art felt really off at times this episode >_< Seems like the quality has dropped quite a bit which is a shame because I thought it was really good in the first two or three episodes. Still, Hana really thinking hard about telling her friends was a good step forward, and not to mention Shion's a "ronin" of sorts too! :O Having just graduated I totally know what she means ... watching all your friends get jobs and being "left behind" like that. It's good that she found something else that she enjoys doing though. Eiko giving Hana that brooch was nice too, it's so pretty :O I hope that Hana will be able to get enough confidence to tell everyone because well I'm sure they'd all support her :P

Glad Shion is able to watch over Hana and help her adjust to life on her own. The shark PJ"s show that she still thinks of her as a little kid

Shark-chan is sooo cute! Pleasant and in a certain sense also constructive enough the episode, there are no real explanations from the characters, but they have a weight their words. The pajama shark it rocks.

Hmm, Hana's hesitation about telling them is getting annoying. Everyone knows nothing happens and this plot point is long overdue. This recurring theme of this anime is pretty weak.

Anyway, not much other than encouragement happened in this episode. Hanen is cute but I would appreciate more character developement.

I don't know what it is about this episode but it was one of my favorites, I liked the slightly more serious tone in this episode as well as getting to know more about both Hana and Shion and there gap year/s

Em.. Wait a minute.. I almost forgot that Hana got Tama's bear as well, because they were tied.. It's sweet if she plays with them like this from time to time.. ;p
Well, interesting point teacher Enami says.. That you don't have to tell your secrets to your friends.. I mean, it means that it's alright to have secrets even from friends.. And, well, is it?.. I wonder..
I guess, there is no definitive answer?.. I mean, yeah maybe there will be opinions, who'll say that your friendship should be one way or another, but really it can be in many ways.. I still personally think that maybe openness is more desirable, otherwise it's not really friend, if you can't trust him.. More of an acquaintance, really, or person you hang out with, a buddy, you can say, but not a friend.. Well, again, friends like this are very rare nowadays anyway, if they exist at all, quite often not necessary.. Well, this topic only makes me feel confused, I guess, about what is friendship.. Can't say much on this, really.. And to tell something or not I'd really decide on how I feel in some moment, that's it.. Not if person might or might not be my so called friend.. After all, do you really need a friend for something?.. And for what?.. If you can name the things you really need in life, you can get them by yourself, pretty much.. If you can't name them, talks with just acquaintances might be just as insightful as with a friend, friendship also aims for maintaining status quo anyway, when you can decide to change or stay the same, or whatever it is.. In the end.. I guess, I'd want to become more free from this friend concept personally.. In the end I want it to be more me who can get, what he wants, and who can decide what to do, not some other people.. Not stop all the influences, they can come, whatever, but in the end to really do, what I personally want.. That's what I probably feel.. And maybe I see in concept of "friend must be person you trust" - a little bit of some pushing to do something I personally don't really like too much.. And I'd rather do something I personally want, not what some concept tells me to.. ;p

We got another ronin in this episode, hehe.

I liked Hana's interactions with Eiko, Enami-sensei and Shino.

Cute hairpin. :)

Aww, that shark pajama. x3
