THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- I died. I was also not ready for this:  Too many ants. Great episode again imo. Ah Tomoko, your delusions are all over the place. Great finish to this episode. I think the new ED song is epic.  |
She had tears in her eyes at the end. Happy tears? lol I liked the new ED. Kinda touching haha |

End Card:  Um.....yeah. |
The ED song this time is an old classic written back in 1990, it turns out. Here is the full version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GsfM1ygNGvM It is called 夏祭り or なつまつり or Natsumatsuri or Summer Festival. Here is information about it in Japanese: http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E5%A4%8F%E7%A5%AD%E3%82%8A_%28JITTERIN%27JINN%E3%81%AE%E6%9B%B2%29 Here are the lyrics written in Japanese: http://www.utamap.com/showkasi.php?surl=36228 In the ED, they only sing the first three paragraphs. The full version is longer. In the closing credits, they say who wrote the lyrics, who wrote the music and who arranged it. However, they don't say who actually sang it. In any case, it sounds great. There are multiple cover versions. You can easily find them by searching on YouTube for 夏祭り. Many of them are beautiful. Being a Nichijou fan, here is my particular favorite: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8cXPyWrklG0 Modified by okanagan, Aug 12, 2013 12:48 PM |
Ah, so they squished the estrogen and ants chapters together. Makes sense, I guess, these two mirror each other pretty well. That feel when you realize that even stray cats get more action than you do... That final scene: not sure if heartwarming or creepy. The combination of the song and the fireworks worked really well though. okanagan said: Sounded like a Vocaloid to me.In the closing credits, they say who wrote the lyrics, who write the music and who arranged it.

I would never have imagined it was a vocaloid. It sounds great to me. I managed to find the version of that song as sung by the original artists posted on YouTube. But "Columbia has blocked it on copyright grounds". In any case, there are many cover versions to enjoy. |

Oh man, the ants crawling all over Tomoko made my skin crawl. KIMO!  |
Pure otome game for a awhile!\, and she talks to her brother about it. Almost time for summer break. "Crow that dirtied by oil"? lol @ the ant is helping getting attention. Because of the Coke Zero. Wanting to find someone to go watch firework, bu failed to do so. Ended up looking at love hotel action with junior highschooler. Miku's Natsumatsuri as ED>> hol~ Firework above love hotel! I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |
I am also desperate to see the subs. However, on balance, I would much prefer that they take their time to do it properly. It really makes a mess when the subbing is not done properly. I recall in Episode 1 they decided to use the word "gestaltzerfall". It took me a lot of Googling to figure out what that meant. Later I realized that it made no sense at all. People make poor choices when they are pulling an all-nighter to get a job done. From what I have seen, the normal delay for subbing is something like 24 hours, and it has not even been 12 hours yet. If you are really desperate, read ahead in the manga in chapters 6, 11 and 12 and you can figure most of it out. The images from the anime are very similar to the original images in the manga. |
lol, another great episode, those ants were pretty gross |
This episode was incredible!is it me or was that hatsune miku in the ED? :S Edit: Looks like someone already made a video with the new ending :D http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BF5ICLT29z0 Modified by polesp, Aug 12, 2013 11:43 PM |
I thought I heard Hatsune Miku as well in the credits, but I didn't see her name. Anyways, hilarious episode as usual. The ending was just perfect, with the fireworks and the "great" view of the hotel room.  Thanks, person who gave me this on another site a long time ago, lol. |
Loved this episode. New ending is really epic. |

Turns out according to wikipedia it was infact hatsune miku lol: "The ending theme for episode six is "Natsu Matsuri" (夏祭り Summer Festival?) by Utsu-P & Minatsukitoka, featuring vocals by Hatsune Miku." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WataMote_-_No_Matter_How_I_Look_at_It,_It%E2%80%99s_You_Guys%27_Fault_I%E2%80%99m_Not_Popular! |
That Metal ED of Miku's song was badass. Great episode too, I can never forget that incident with the ants lol |
OMG the cats lol.  |
That was unexpected... dat "firework" lol |
Those humping cats and that Miku Hatsune ending. they already made this episode great XD   |
A couple of my favourite parts of the manga - and that ED! Truly wonderful. Excellent episode. |

^ You, sir, have just won the internet. |
She successfully talked to boys she didn't know and got to see the fire works with them Sort of...... Proud of her  |
It's episodes like this that make me proud I started watching it. The two cats, the fireworks and that ED. It was such a great episode. |
Another extremely funny episode. The cats were sexin it like champs in the middle of the parking lot. Anyone else feel itchy when the ants showed up? Tomoko partakes in voyeurism with a couple of middle schoolers. Also that ED was pretty good. ~ El Psy Congroo~  |
Fizzle yeah! Hatsune Miku ED theme! At first I was like, That sounds like Miku, and then I was like, Holy crap that is some fantastic tuning of Miku if it is, then I came here, Holy shizzle it was Miku! My nerdgasm just happened. Dem Cats. >.> Signature Here. |
Was the ED song a vocaloid song? I may be mistaken but it sure sounded like one. 私のホバークラフトはウナギでいっぱいです。  |
Is tomoko bi?  |
Hey I saw some progress from her. She talked to some boys! The cats and the ants...LOL... "Perhaps there is a universal, absolute truth. Perhaps it justifies every question.

well not the version in the ed but hey at least its the full song |
First time in an anime I enjoyed watching the fireworks the ED was awesome |
Loved this episode. The ending song was awesome  |
This episode is brought to you by Coca Cola. |
Miku ED <3 Hot Tomoko fantasizing XD Cats humping XD Pathetic Tomoko XD And if u think about it...that was a huge step for Tomoko. She didn't just talk to guys she watched people having sex with them hahaha XD  |
Anyone else notice "oranges of wrath" lol كنت تهدر وقتك عن طريق ترجمة هذه. mattbenz99 said: Christians and Satanists are technically the same thing |
awesome and hilarious episode! absolutely loved that ED! |
thanks to the Ants... Tomoko becomes popular with boys for just a little bit time...LOL that ED song....Hatsune Miku version? xD |
kimi ga ita natsu wa tooi yume no naka The summer I spent with you, is like a faraway dream sora ni kietetta uchiage hanabi the fireworks display that disappeared into the sky. kimi no kami no kaori wa jiketa the scent of your hair (in bubbles) popped up yukata sugata ga mabushi sugite the way you look in your yukata was so bright o matsuri no yoru wa mune ga sawai da yo the night of the festival made my heart pound hagure sou na hito gomi no naka we almost lost sight of one another in the crowd "hanarenai de" dashi kaketa te o "don't seperate from me" I said starting to put out my hand POKETTO ni irete nigiri shimete ita but i put back in my pocket, and closed it in a fist. The summer I spent with you, is like a faraway dream the fireworks display that disappeared into the sky. |
"Oranges of Wrath", huh? I guess she wants to be like Saeki. And these custom EDs are just awesome. |
Oh god Tomoko :S, man once again quite sad but that ending LOL. I hope she does get something good happen sometime soon. |
How does the score for this show keep going down? How is it even below 8? Normally I don't get hung up on scores, or even care, but damn. This is one of the best comedy shows I've seen in years; every episode exceeds all my expectations, and turns the somewhat disposable vignettes of the manga into cohesive, audiovisual hilarity. Minor rant aside, excellent episode, as usual. The segues into these unique ED sequences are beyond awesome. |
Damn good episode, it keeps getting better by the episode. I MUST have that ending song!! |

Not every anime need a happy ending in order to be good. 私のホバークラフトはウナギでいっぱいです。 |
and I thought bug rape is just a dream . I notice that Rafflesia flower. I heard people said that the flower smell as bad as stinking tofu lol |
Oh my gosh, I almost choked on my soda while watching this! Was the ending sung by Hatsune Miku? |
Mizokami said: Great episode and nice with Utsu-P (鬱P) song in the end. He is a great metal/rock vocaloid composer and released a new album last week. http://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/B00D409F0Y Two songs from his new album if anyone is interested. Do you know where I could find the full version of the ED in this ending, I'm really liking his music. Is it in the album? Overall great episode, loving this series.
