I feel so bad for Anzu, poor girl just seems like a series of misfortunes.

Hina once again causing chaos in Nitta's life, I love how shes trying her best to help but is doing the exact opposite.

Hope Anzu will improve her lifestyle or financial situation in the future. I don't like seeing her going through garbage. :'(

Hitomi is sooooo funny and cute! So funny how she was blackmailed. I knew that Utako would have a back-up photo of her stored or moved somewhere. :))

Being homeless is rough, but Anzu found a nice old guy to help her figure out how to live somewhat happier, I was busy getting all feelsy during the episode though. She really can't sing though.

Also got more Hitomi this episode, glad to she shes for some reason still working as a bartender, though she got... blackmailed into it... And of course her teacher came in, these sorts of situations are what I love most in anime.

And last, Hina had a nightmare and... turns out she sucks at cleaning and... THEY ENDED IT ON A FREAKING CLIFF HANGER... THE HECK... Twas a very good episode.

I'm sure others noticed ufotable name mentioned at the ED (who would miss it) but no one mentioned it or its role in this anime production and I can't read Japanese, so if someone would mind help me here and look into it and what does it mean?


after looking for it, these are the studios who involved in 2nd key animations and/or in-between animations and/or finishing:

GAINAX, White Fox, Kinema Citrus, J.C.Staff, ufotable, Zexcs, Troyca, Diomedea, Gonzo, Silver Link and other 30+ studios.

holy shit look at those big names, no wonder the animation is very good.

I love Anzu's character development, it teared me up honestly in her segment but damn, Hitomi's segment was hilarious as always, best girl for me, even Utako's there for me in the best girl race

So far

I like this show and all the characters have such big personalities, but at the same time everything feels like it moves twice as fast as it should. The portion about Anzu being homeless could have, and really should have, filled an entire episode on its own. Because everything moves so quickly the relationships built between the characters don't feel solid enough despite all of them being so interesting. It's good, I just think the pacing is a bit off.

The first half of the episode was sad and emotional.

Second half had lot of humor elements like

"M M Million Dollar please".and "Irasshaimase".

The cliffhanger at the end though.


Great episode.

A little worried about Anzu's environment. The opening seems to show her getting a job, so I hope she's not stuck homeless to long.

You ever laugh so hard you start choking? That's what happened to me when Hina saw herself homeless and was asking for spare change. I LOVE how she instantly started to try to make Nitta's life better, so she wouldn't become homeless. Looks like it's going to heavily backfire in the next episode though.

Honestly, I felt so sad for Anzu. She is so nice, yet she's suffering. I'm glad she found other homeless to make friends with. She's a funny character, and it's nice that this show isn't a complete comedy and still had some serious parts.

Mishima is hillarious as well. Forced into a life she didn't ask for, but surprisingly great at. Her interaction with her homeroom teacher was great. I love how she got blackmailed into being a bartender. Just ridiculous and hillarious.

Overall a 4.5/5 for me. Great episode.

The homeless Anzu is so cute :x

Poor Hiromi got tricked into becoming a bartender. I really like Hiromi's reaction when talking with Utako and her homeroom teacher. Put it on replay for a few times haha

Hina doing housework RIP vase -> Nitta says "I'm home" without showing his expression -> ending song 🤣🤣 Can't wait to see Nitta's reaction next week.

Utako is so hot, no wonder Nitta wants to tap that ass. Even I want her.

Anzu is one of my faves, it breaks my heart how she needs to steal to survive. I also feel sorry for the homeless people she stays with and I hope their situation improves.

That part where Nitta gives Anzu the money made me tear up. TT__TT

ANZU IS BEST GIRL!

Next best girl is Hitomi. I love how she accidentally found her calling as a bartender through a drunk salaryman and now Utako is bribing her to work for her. 1500 yen an hour is not bad for a middle schooler.

Love how the salaryman's son is part of the yakuza. LOL at her teacher for wanting a promotion over stopping his student from bartending.

Hina is just destructive which makes me like her less. She's the third or fourth best girl in the series.

Best girl in order: Anzu, Hitomi, Utako and Hina.

O god, Hitomi's bartender escapades are just fking amazing, LOL.
'Normal middle schoolers don't have jobs' I think you're trying to use common sense on exactly the wrong person there, Hitomi.

Also, this part reminded me a lot of my attitude during coding... 'Thing's a total mess and needs to be rewritten? Eh, I'll do it later.'

As much as I'd like the whole episode dedicated to best daughter Anzu, her part followed the manga pretty much exactly. Plus, the way they shifted from emotional and heartwarming to Hitomi's comedy worked really well.

Man, whenever this series isn't leaving me rolling with laughter, it's warming my steel heart. Some great character development for Anzu here, and plenty of funny interactions with Hitomi. What a rebel.

I wonder if we'll get the reaction shot we're all expecting next episode, or if it'll just skip to the consequences. The title of the next episode is pretty foreboding.

There's Saiki but it lacks Hina cuteness and abit of serious drama.

I do say both good but Hina character line up is rare, we got an adult? character as main character and he's a yakuza lul.

Considering how much of a blast episode 2 was, I wasn't expecting the feels from this one. Anzu is so adorable =< When she bowed in gratitude and then when they took her money away I was devastated too. =((((((((

Also I love how they draw Mishima's facial expressions. That "it's not me face," was so hilarious. That look suspicious look he gave her was gold.

Could anything be more moe than a poor little homeless kinpatsu loli?

Hitomi now has twice as many favorites as Hina after this episode, and I can see why. As funny as watching Hina trash Nitta's entire house was, Hitomi's part was even more amusing. I wonder if she'll become the Walter White of cocktails, and an undergroud bartendering legend by the end of the show.

Aww Hina. You cutie.

Hitomi as a bartender!?! Hahahaha. Yaaaaas.

Another hilarious fucking episode. 5/5. <3
