| Dark matter. Dat tomato. Dat smile. |
| So I finally have something I care about in this anime, and if you found the full version, that was a pretty touching ending. I'm glad I did find the full verison because the last two episodes have left such a terrible taste in my mouth, and that ending makes me not want to drop it just yet.

| Dang Minori was ready to go! |
 |
| Wondered about the Gaia dream (or wallaby dream), however that last couple of minutes on the full version really tied it all together. This show needs a few more moments like that to elevate it above being just another love-triangle comedy. |
Please don't feed the trolls! In my next life I want to collide at the corner with the cute transfer student carrying a piece of toast in her mouth...rodac |
Paul said: Was a fun episode, lots of references in the first half. Not sure what this one is. Phoenix Wright's 'Objection!' Danganronpa Nyaruko poster blow gun Sure I'm missing more. Wasn't a fan of the art style used but regardless, she smiled. Noticed those few references as well. And that smile was gold. Kei's Dark Matter! Epicness. Was that Wakadanna Gaia dream referring to that dead soil? |
| I mainly see the animes... so don't blame me for not knowing about the Manga/LN |
| Sigh. And here I thought I would not drop anything this season. |
 |
Paul said: I'm sure this is from Monster Hunter.. not sure which though.. that looks like a Tigrex only this one is black and the watermelon was referenced as the egg because one of the quests is to steal the egg of a monster or something.Not sure what this one is. Dark Matter!!... damn |
 |
| Saw the Nyaruko cameo, Phoenix Wright's OBJECTION!, and the Danganronpa allusion. Got pretty heartwarming at the end too. Good episode |
 |
| References: Danganronpa/Phoenix Wright Nyarko poster Saint Seiya------Gaia--->Athena |
| This was much better than last week's episode :D That blatant Phoenix Wright objection and Nyaruko poster lol. That scene with Kei wearing a gray tracksuit/mechanic clothes, that's totally from Kuso Miso Technique. A part of me wishes I had never known where it's from lmao. That wakadanna dream was creepy! |
"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness." "May those who defy their fate be granted glory." |
| I'm loving this more and more. The story is so cute >.< |
 |
| Good episode , love the last few minutes where Ringo smiles and "Raising crops is life's greatest joy". SkyTate said: Was that Wakadanna Gaia dream referring to that dead soil? Yes , Gaia is the personification of Earth in the Greek mythology. "Remember what you humans have done to me." Me means Earth. |
"Children of Japan. And those who were once children. Listen! This is not a dream. This is not fiction. In reality, your superheroes were always fighting. To teach viewers courage and the meaning of justice! No matter how many enemies there are. No matter how strong evil is. Just remember. Does any another country have so many heroes? Has any another country been protected by multiple superheroes? Stand with me, friends! Remember when you used to watch your superheroes! Once you may have given up this dream. But today, you can be a hero!" - Kaname Jouji , Red Axe |

 |
| Last week I said that this anime is deceptively educative and this episode continues on that note. I hope they can focus more on crop planting and expand on their effort to revitalize the soil instead of just cramming as many cheesy jokes as possible. I'm glad they also focused on crops & plants instead of animals like Gin no Saji, this way two agricultural anime in the same period don't seem useless. That being said what pleasant me the most during this episode is the revelation that Ringo didn't come to the rural area just because some anonymous fan sent her phallic-shaped fruits/plants (that would be very lame and cheesy imo). |

| The monkey business was handled and they got Ringo to smile. Great episode!!! |
 |
| Who the hell shows their Dark Matter in front of a petite girl anyway?! (except for a rapist) It's a nice episode and definitely better than last week's. The comedy is also a bit better (at least it made me smirk). The OST at the end is pretty damn good too. And dat smile was cute. |
| Lol at the Haiyore! Nyaruko-san poster, I loved that show ! And the scene where they try to make Ringo laugh, DARK MATTER, wtf lol XD |
 |
| While I was on the verge of skipping the show. The developments shown the last minutes are enough to keep me going. It feels we just concluded the first volume of the novel, so next episode may see the return of total absurdity. |
| I love that pink-haired girl. Still don't see the point of all the Minori hate, annoying people... That Gaia xD I liked that soil discussion. I was worried they would ruin the smile scene, glad they didn't. I am loving the animation, and the overall feel so far. |
 |
| that dark matter! Kei nailed it! |
| Finally some decent episode, I wish this one would go after ep1, scrap those two previous that was horrible. Now we need even more backstory, I really hope they forget those silly scenes and do something like this next time. It wasn't anything special but at least it was worth of watching. |
| I didn't care what I see but I saw a parody of Danganronpa and Nyaruko poster xD I feel like I was watching Seitokai Yakuindomo.Inoue Marina's voice is similar to Hikasa Youko and that's helped me to think this way. This anime has a random comedy but it is funny.I've a lot of time therefore I'll continue to watch it until it's finished. |

| Isayama Hajime should be awarded The Manga with The Highest Inconsistencies of Characters' Appearances. He keeps performing multiple plastic surgeries on those Shingeki No Kyojin characters in a SINGLE chapter. Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga. Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month. Patiently awaiting SNK TV/movie/OVA anime-sequel. The 2015 SNK live-action movie would probably suck. |
| Holy shit, the last part of the episode was actually tender and insightful. I didn't think this show was gonna have intelligent moments. |
| sweet, Haiyore! Nyaruko-san W I love that anime |
| was on the verge of dropping the series, perhaps this episode made me change my mind... |
 |
| Oh gosh, dat Danganronpa art style there, love that reference. This anime is getting better and better. |
| What are you looking here for |
| Ringo almost have the same problem as Tsukiko Lost her emotions... :3 |

XD |
| Agriculture propaganda is strong in this one... Oh well, good episode nonetheless, oppai-chan mumbling is always awesome. Also dat Saint Seya reference... pretty cool, surprises me not many people got that... I guess Saint Seya is not that famous outside Brazil |
| I was actually wondering if Ringo slapped Minori for tickling her. She didn't, but it was still funny. DARK MATTER |

| I believe that unless you know for sure that you don't like a concept, you should keep exploring it. Whether it be characteristics of people or a genre of some sort, you never know if you don't like it until you've seen quality work corresponding to that genre. Keep exploring until you've found something you enjoy, or something of quality. Then you know what's bad, what's good, and what isn't for you. ( ･ㅂ･)و ̑̑ Everyday life. |
| Sugita spotted xD DARK MATTER!! |
 |
| Haiyore Nyaruko San W Poster!, Dark Matter! hahaha :D The last part episode was Good and Sweet, calm and heartwarming about agriculture knowledge , Ringo Smile and the End Illustration :') |
 |
| Not bad. There was actually some plot |
| What's with upset idols and childhood friends with no chance of winning this season? Seem's there's a trend... |
| Surprisingly heartwarming ending. Completely different mood. The last half was actually pretty good. Hopefully some plot is coming through. |
 |
| "Nanja Korewa?!" So much lol. |
Chong The Nomad sang: Even if you're lost, you can't~ Lose the love because that's in your heart~ Hooo oo ooo ooo oo~ My DeviantArt To keep your drawing sanity, click here. |
| haha Minori's room XD LOL dat "Athena" |
 |
| Those references! DARK MATTER. LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL. Kei is so epic. That's some sexual harassment he did. The balance of everything in this series is really good. Got a fair amount of comedy, drama, romance, fanservice etc. I really liked what they did at the end. Looking forward to the next episode. |
babymilo91 said: Lol that Nyarko poster. Easily the highlight of the episode for me. |
| I am starting my own blog now; but you will probably not like it. https://goodbadotaku.wordpress.com/ |
| When Minori looked in cannon, this reminded me of Tom & Jerry. It seems anime have parodies not only from others animes)) |
| Nice ending with Ringo finally smiling. Feels like a plot is beginning to emerge. |
