Hina could've given Anzu the money straight away, would probably have been more than she got from selling the one she just bought

Anzu's a bit painful to watch sometimes. She's too unrealistic to be a serious caricature, but too, well, serious to be a fun watch. Guess honesty, earnestness is all good, but if it's honesty, earnestness and complete stupidity it's not that enjoyable.

+I'm a misunderstanding plot hater. Off goes the second half.

This series is half "Poor Anzu! I want to hold her and give her money!" and the second half is Hitomi being Hitomi.

If I'm going to nitpick anything for this episode in particular, it would be that despite two character having amazing super powers, they don't use them at all this episode. Hina only used her powers minimally last episode, too. I guess I'm mainly wondering why they gave these girls powers if they don't plan on utilizing them (for comedy). This series would be just as good without the powers in terms of writing and animation, but since I know they have them, I want to see them being used, especially after that whole "I have to use my powers a lot of I set off an explosion" scene from the first episode.

Again, I'm nitpicking. This episode was really good, and I hope the next can match it, if not surpass it.

if there's no power there's no

They aren't used much since a lot of the side story stuff is getting skipped due to run time.

If they had 24 episodes to really take their time and do it proper, we'd have seen a lot of esper hijinks so far. At least from Hina.

Anzu's inferiority complex caused her pretty much stop using her powers except as an absolute last resort once she started to take pride in the stuff she's accomplished without it.

Though they could've shown them loading the tvs with the power like they did in the manga (they could've cut the first Hina covered in ants scene to squeeze it in (the 2nd one doesn't really need the first to be funny), even if they could only show the tail end of it with them dropping in the last tv with power).

----------------------------------------------------------

As for the episode as a whole.

Part 2 was great.

Part 1 is probably my least liked chapter in all of Hinamatsuri. But it does have some important character development in it.

But the episode itself actually skipped the development payoff of it all. Which is odd to even include it in that case since all we ended up getting out of it was the three girls knowing that they know each other.




Though I've long ago accepted that the episode count would be a problem, though I have been overall pleased thus far about how they've handled things, since they've been keeping it focused on plot/character development chapters, which is where the core draw of Hinamatsuri is.

Though not having some of the side stories can make the series come off a bit more heavy than it means to.

As much as I'd have preferred not spoiling the time-skip (especially since it's not even remotely relevant to this season), a lot of people have said that that was the moment that grabbed them the most and convinced them to give it a try, so at least in that i suppose they made the right call.

The scavenger hunt for TV sets made me double facepalm. Then again, it was an average day in Hina's life.

In Hitomi's case, I do not know whether to laugh or cry. Actually, who am I kidding, I laughed my ass of after seeing her misfortunes. I could not contain myself as everyone in the bar started clapping after Hitomi's confession.

Yet Hina remained clueless till the very end...

Oh man, this show is a comedy gold mine. "What is happening? Seriously, what is even happening?" Hahahahh Sorry guys I understand the Hitomi love (I really do), but Hina is going to remain my best girl :D I just love how Nitta and the television guy could not figure out what the heck she was thinking ;-) to quote Wotaku ni Koi wa Muzukashii, "Oh, he's probably not thinking anything" haha

Also love the parts were the boys were limited by their imagination... hehe

He knows, but denies the reality of it since he'll have to take responsibility for it if he acknowledges it.

he did the same thing during the Hostage arc the anime skipped as well as when Hina comes to discuss some business with Hitomi and was having a cocktail in the bar and he's got one hand up blocking his sight of it and trying to ignore it.

I've seen this episode more than 5 times and cannot get tired of the jokes, I still laugh as much as the first time I saw it. Also props to feel studio for the effort in the minor details, like the jackets sleeves of Hina's classmates in the 'rooftop exit door meeting' scene.

One of the funnest and funniest episodes yet. I enjoyed both parts. The beginning focused on best girl, Anzu and her quest to sell TV sets to buy games. Hina should ask Nitta to buy her a game or Hina should start learning how to SHARE with others. She can start by sharing with Anzu. Anzu is so pure but Hina's a brat.

This show is all about misunderstandings then again, a lot of Anime and non-Anime series and movies are all about misunderstandings. This is especially true in the second half.

I love how the boys in Hitomi's class assume she's either in an illicit affair with their teacher or prostituting herself then don't really care that she's a middle school bartender. I actually liked how clueless Hina was in the second part, it made her somewhat charming.

The second part was my favorite in this episode.

Pleasant as usual the episode. Poor Hitomi, is always cheated by everyone, it makes me almost sorry, but Hina despite doing almost nothing, his presence is always fundamental. Anzu depending on the situation makes you laugh or cry of heart, I love her! Finally, Sayo and the two boys entered the cast, who knows what the red-haired girl looks like.

I don´t understand why the anime has how title Himatsuri?! Because for me, the principal character is Aizawa and in this episode, in both shorts was the principal, and in the second short, with her classmates that thought that she had a romance with the teacher was hilarious!!!

I can't believe how freaking good this anime is. I've had to move it up to a 10/10 for now. It's just... marvellous. How it introduces new fun characters while seamlessly keeping the main ones relevant and entertaining. And Hitomi is such a well-written character it's so impressive. The comedy is really brilliant - I laughed out loud several times. The brilliant character animation is a big part of this. The subtly CG-aided movement has been used to great effect - it makes everything really smooth but still feel in-place. The facial expressions are just excellent. All I can do is sing this anime's praises, I hope it keeps up at this quality!

Anzu's perception of earth technology was questionable at best because spending all day looking for a flatscreen TV in the grass was a rather unusual way to pass the time. It's a bit reasonable for her because of the analog TVs she found under the bridge though. It's a bit counterintuitive to sell two perfectly fine TVs for money to spend on games but I suppose that she couldn't use them because she doesn't have electricity at her place. I hope she didn't buy a console because that'd be the cherry on top lmao

All those assumptions by the boys that implied that Hitomi was some kind of hooker for the teacher and Nitta was hilarious. She might've got caught by them but Aizawa made her proud of her double life as a bartender and made her stop being in denial even if the method was pretty sadistic. Her nervous gestures and speech habits was really adorable too ♥

The second half was so damn funny. HITOMI'S reaction were so priceless and Hina's "Nani?" makes it more funny. Aizawa girl is cunning tho lol

And what's up with this lmao

I can kind of understand the teacher now.

Yesterday I met my nephew on the street near my home. I didn't even know she lives in my city. I was like "Hey she looks like my nephew", then as she passed me she said "Hi" and but then just moved on. I was like "Wait a second, was that really her?" but the more I thought about it, the more I concluded that it can't be her because I wouldn't randomly meet her near my home.

Later I learned from my mother that she actually moved to place nearby!

So I guess if something is too unlikely to be true, you wouldn't even recognize a person close to you.

Oh i see, nice to meet you Rin. I'll probably check the new Higurashi once it's done airing , thanks! About Ajin and Mob psycho , Mob psycho is one I'd recommend more, the first season gives a great amount of Comedy , not too mention the likeable characters , and if you liked and Finished season one then Season two will amaze you, i prefer the second season rather than the first , both are still Worth watching though. The Seiyuus do a good job , art you may or may not like though. Animation however is *chef's kiss*.

Ajin is pretty entertaining , it had plot holes and sometimes felt slow but the action and the fight scenes are Good for a cgi anime, It also has an interesting concept and story. Season 2 , well it's good , it's not season one but it gives a nice conclusion and nice fight scenes too.

Well that's all i can say for now , it's late in my country as of now so Chat tomorrow, message you next time and look forward to chatting again Rin. Stay safe:)
