that Moon sequence... it was dynamic and touching in some way
I really love how they show emotions here - from tension to simple happiness of Mutta
great comedic moments with Apo and above all Hibito's Father

Gahhh. Finally things are moving along a bit.

I really want to know already if Mutta was accepted. I feel like they're dragging it out.

Oh and, "YAY~!"

That's why the anime is pretty cool. They don't force the that story is set in the future. There aren't any flying cars or robots. It feels like the setting is in 2012 - not much difference. I feel like they made that the setting because they wanted to do a Zidane bit. :P

LOL, but i believe the main reason is connecting with audience, Mutta was born in 1993, meaning he was 19 in 2012 which i think is a decent average estimate of the age of people watching this series (i'm 20) by 2026 he is 33 so this show is probably a kind of inspirational show cause who knows someone currently watching this show might fly to the moon in 2026 :P

It's nice that Hibito didn't say some deep inspirational phrase, but a "yay". Well, a deep phrase would be out of character.
I still can't bring myself to like him, though. Yet another thing to add up to his gary stuness - he made the highest jump. Doesn't feel stressed out, doesn't feel sick in space even though that niggah said everyone does, does an impossible weight lifting and cardio (that lifting was really impossible with his bodybuild, he'd have to be much more bulked up), gave Azuma the right answer without much hestitation, is supposedly lazy but everything comes to him easily (not saying he wasn't working hard or something, it just... like when he didn't even bother to read that manual, but still probably didn't have much problem with using the thing, you know what I mean?), and also he never felt like giving up.
Well, Mutta is the MC, so it doesn't really matter. As long as he is realistical and likable (and he is), it's fine, I guess.

Yay!

Who says that isn't inspirational? <.<

Another brilliant episode. This anime always manages to impress me. It by all accounts seems like an anime that would be boring (especially for me who usually goes for either action or comedy). But this anime never bores me, the light humour and the all around feel makes it a very unique and just all around amazing anime :3.

When I watched Hibito land on the moon I looked just like Mutta...

(well aside from not being Japanese or having permed hair, but the goofy grin and the tears were the same...you know what I mean)

oh, and that earned this show a ten as my rating--it was only a matter of time.

Great episode. Really touching to see everyone waking up to watch Hibito and his mom crying, dad smiling and Mutta doing both :')
Ah, Hibito WOULD be the type of person just to go "yay!" wouldn't he? XD So much for "inspirational messages" ... haha XD
Something "bad" happens next episode? Uh oh, Mutta used up all his luck ... lol :P Do we get to know the results of the astronaut selection test?! :O

YAY~!

Honestly, the simplicity of the phrase was so awesome! I love that Hibito said that over anything else, I feel like something hugely inspirational would be so out of character!

Also, I can't possibly be the only one who was kind of hoping for a Sailor Moon reference! What with the one guy calling him their moon rabbit "tsuki no usagi" and Sailor Moon's name being Tsukino Usagi! Oh well, maybe that was just a little easter egg? ;)

All in all, I can't really express how awesome this show is! Really hits home with me, since I want to be an astronaut someday!

The Moon Rabbit is just folklore it really had nothing to do with Sailor Moon.
Sailor Moon just took the name from it.

Something stupid like yay is what makes Hibito Hibito, something serious just wouldn't fit in.
I was waiting for him to do a flip too, but he's not crazy enough for that apparently.
I'm looking forward to more.
