It's great to see friends helping each other out especially for those who needs help in a particular subject when studying.

Looks like there's still fishing elements though, as that's still an important part of the show. With every episode, it feels like these girls understands fishing more and more.

Very cute and wholesome episode as usual.

Koharu's Engrish was amusing, especially that mugi tea.

Honestly after a hard week of work watching this is the best.

It was nice seeing Futaba and her friend having a good time together and talking about the things they where worried about.
Also like the part where they prepared a type of wedding for their parents it was nice of them.

Futaba joins the trio in the usual Summer vacation homework trouble, and Koharu's English is quite good I must say, though Koi's talkback is quite the triumph. Hah, try saying Mugi (barley) tea to Hiyori.

More fishing infotainment as usual, and Futaba is trying to rope her friend Aiko into her interest for fishing. You can always count on Koi to think of ideas like this, and a fishing amusement park it is to invite fellow friends out...not to make it sound so malicious as a con. Only Koharu can think of stuff like this. Haha, I see a lot of resemblance of Aiko with Koharu when she first started out, but above all, it was just pure bog-standard wholesome CGDCT with Aiko convincing Futaba that she needn't try so hard to convince her that she likes fishing for acceptance.

Futaba's fly-fishing debut with the others, and when breed fish are dropped in nature, yep their guard is always down. Koharu's getting good and bragging big, but Koi's technique leaves her all battered up. Hmm, it's normal for parents to have their wedding bands be used as necklaces and all, but for Hiyori's mom and Koharu's dad, they didn't had a wed marriage since Episode 1. Koharu caught onto Koi's technique quick, and the newly-found sisters plus the others prep a small wedding dinner "ceremony" for their parents...with the caught rainbow trout fish of course.

Happy wedding, and a happy family for fishing.

The location from this episode is Hakkeijima Sea Paradise which consists of an aquarium, an amusement park, and the fishing area, Umi farm, where you can fish and cook your caught fish.

What a great episode.

We got quite a bit of focus on Futaba this episode, she wanted to tell her friend about her fishing hobby but was afraid of being judged, when she told others about this, they all helped her to tell it to her friend, and man it turned out to be quite good, Futaba's friend was really wholesome and a good girl :D

That hand-holding scene and Aiko's reaction to misunderstanding "I love doing stuff like this" was gold, her reaction man, hilarious.

I liked the portrayal of sibling love between Ichika and Futaba. Then Koharu started comparing her relation with Hiyori with them too lol.

Koharu as usual being mecha kawai xD.

They again went fishing and Koharu's usual kawai acts resumed(whatever she does automatically becomes cute) as she tried to catch fishes and guess what she was able to catch FOUR fishes all by herself!

I loved how Hiyori and Koharu decided to organize a wedding dinner all by themselves (plus flowers which were paid for by Ichika xD). That hug was cute, kinda expected Hiyori to hug her mom as well but guess that would be too much to ask from her lol, displaying affection is hard.

The reaction faces in this episode were top tier.

Another wholesome af episode. 5/5. Looking forward to next one.

Aw that was so sweet to give their parents a wedding. I wonder why they didn’t want to have a proper ceremony.

Both of the girls have come so far already, Koharu’s fishing skills are catching up to her sister now.

Great episode! We see more Futaba this episode! We also see some amazing ENGRISH FROM KOHARU AND KOI! Operation FISHING CON (as Koharu calls it xD) is underway for a way to see if Futaba's friend Aiko likes fishing or not. It seems she is scared of touching the fish lol-just like Koharu was at first. They have burgers made out of the fish they just caught and they taste nice it seems. And her friend also knew Futaba liked the outdoors and was understanding about it xD. Koharu and Hiyori also plan a meal for their parents to congratulate them on their marriage. 'Happy four months and three days for your wedding!' It was a nice scene!

Looking forward to the next episode!

Ah, summer holidays starting off with homework, and an English class with Koharu, her saying mugi tea was hilarious

Fun plans are made to help Futaba turned out successful. Watching her and Aiko interact was soft, they sure are great friends. Ichika and Koharu sobbing about how great their little sisters are, those were great reactions lmao

River fishing took sometime for Koharu to do, but in the end she managed to cook her parents' wedding meal awww. Such a wholesome ending, the family has an amazing dynamic~

This is one of my favorite episodes for sure, the opening summer homework session was perfect, that’s some of the best engrish I’ve ever seen, was very reminiscent of a certain scene from Gochiusa lol, and Koharu has always radiated Cocoa energy for me, so I absolutely loved that. I also loved the Futaba and Aiko moments, Aiko’s reaction to catching a fish was hilarious, and as expected Aiko was completely understanding of Futaba’s love for outdoors fun, but I really loved that scene. The 2nd half was great too, river fishing is definitely fun, and Koharu caught enough fish for the wedding near the end of episode, which was also very sweet, and love waitress Hiyori lol.

Koharu sure is a box full of surprises. Leaving aside the amusing "mugi tea" error, her English was actually quite decent.

Great episode as usual. Aiko misunderstanding Futaba's "confession" was hilarious and the last part with the wedding meal was so sweet.

I like that our gang is going fishing is various places with different approaches of techics and the same positive lively attitude. Koharu is becoming a superiour cooker which can control everything from getting the food and making it tasty and presentable. Hiyori now can take a backseat and mind her own business in teaching her new friend Futaba. Non stop good vibes out of the show.

"This is a Mugi Tea!"

Seriously, Koharu continues to impress me with ease. Her English was surprisingly good, too. =)

This was a really wholesome episode. The trip to the aquarium was a good place for Futaba to conquer her fears and she was able to tell her best friend, Aiko, about her love for fishing, to which Aiko reacted as if she was being confessed to! Regardless, Aiko is fine with it and she wants to do more things that Futaba likes to do. Their friendship definitely got stronger on that day.

The fly fishing at the river was relaxing, too. Koharu did well to learn how to catch fish here, which played well into her and Hiyori's plan to hold a "wedding ceremony" for their parents, since they didn't have a proper one at all. Once again, this was very wholesome and sweet of the girls to treat their parents like this. ^_^

Oh my God, I love the English scene, it was so hilarious, kinda wished it went longer lmao. Hiyori's reaction to "M u g i T e a " is just adorable.

Godbless this show for giving me a serotonin boost everytime, while simultaneously also making me cry sometimes. I loved Futaba and Aiko's friendship and Hiyori and Koharu giving their parents a birthday dinner. So fucking sweet. And of course, just Koi gracing us with her presence is already a blessing in itself.

Are we gonna get that family outing next episode? Can't wait.

The Engrish was pretty great and I loved the Mugi tea bit a lot. It's once again so heartwarming to see them get along so well. Futaba's hobby got accepted by her friend, even if she already knew about it. Ichika once again crying for her imouto is just so precious again.

Seeing Koharu and Hiyori plan a wedding meal for their parents is so wholesome.

Pleasant episode, but there was no doubt about it, seasoned with a lot of humor, sympathy and a good amount of time dedicated to fishing, which never hurts. Narration in which Koharu is the host, the protagonist is always her, except sometimes. Sweet the parenthesis in which Ichika talks about his little sister Futaba, but the merit of this episode is that it does not expire too much in sentimentality, while among the many things shown during the episode, in the narration there is also time to introduce better and to grow the relationship between Futaba and her friend, today this episode has given so much in terms of history. Not to mention the basic messages, the first, which serves to make people understand how much things must be said and not just imply them, because in this way the feelings we express verbally towards the person concerned reach the heart more straight to the heart. And the second, that if you are too close or too far away, you cannot focus on what we observe and what we imagine we see well.

P.S. An episode like this is enough to recharge you from all the daily grind.

Summer homework's always fun to do especially with friends. Koharu challenging Koi to English though was amusing. Introducing someone to the joys of fishing can be quite stressful it seems. But having Futaba take the lead was the best choice. In the end im glad that the mission was a success. The mountain stream that they went to sure was pretty. Still to think that there's so many new things that river fishing demands. The meal that the girls prepared for their parents really was sweet. With each new ep i feel that the girls are starting to understand each other and forging ever stronger bonds which is always nice to see.

Aww Futaba has finally confessed to Aiko....that she likes fishing. But that closeness between them tickles my yuri senses, as always from this show. And wow Koharu, fishing all those stock for a wedding dinner, I'm proud of her improvement as a fisher.

Looks like Hiyori's mum and Koharu's pops did something after that dinner (is Project No. 3 coming???), and yay a family trip coming!

aside from the common elements a cgdct anime with a specialized theme (such as camping, motor bikes, mountain climbing, shooting, golfing, data processing club, amusement club, light music club, ...), such as the pure life-enjoying cgdct stuffs, moe blob cute moments, technical nerdy knowledge, this anime kinda have something special to it.
it is hard to pinpoint what that thing is, but I would say it might be its success in telling various kinds of personal stories (such as self-growth, learning to bond with others, seeking for recognition, accepting new family members, longing for the deceased, embracing a father that is a fishing maniac) that feels realistic, relatable, pact with emotional depths, delivered through soft narratives of the characters, weaved naturally between the cgdct elements, while not dragging out the overall relaxed tone of the show. the characters are also crafted with extra care - they are the kind of characters that one can imagine to be real while also giving vibrant dynamics between their conversations.
this episode feels especially precious to me in these regards.
