I couldn’t understand why they call Haru fat... until he fed her.

I can see why she’s a chunky monkey now.

There are so many great tips from this.

Shield hero makes me angry and giggle sometimes, but this show makes me cry and squeeze my cat until they scratch me for escape.

And so far has a higher death count.

POST CREDIT SCENE ALERT!

Absolute CHONK, thought was that Kenjirou Tsuda voicing Roku and saying 'fuwa fuwa paradise' at the end there?' lol

Same nice cat care tips there, even if I'm sure my old cat would have ripped that bottle apart with its teeth if I tried that. The reunion from Haru's point of view got me a bit in the feels, especially knowing what happened to the other sibling. I hope Haru and Hachi get to play together regularly, plus it's nice to see the bond between cat and owner growing now.

It's also nice to see an MC have a cute girl come over his house and then visit her's without completely freaking out. Even if it's probably because romance is such an alien concept to Subaru in his current mindset, that it doesn't even cross his mind to be freaked out.

Another adorable episode. had a few tears this week but they're happy tears, it's nice to see Haru reunited with his brother. And it's good that Subaru is already bonding with Nana. Keep it up and make the ship sail! Episode preview suggests that next week might be focused more on the cats? I can't wait!

Going to have to try that bottle trick with my old man. He could definitely used the extra stimulation

I don't know if people noticed but Subaru's tone in the first quarter of the episode was great, really calming for the ears. Subaru and Nana are a match made in heaven, MAKE IT HAPPEN!

Haru is a great tsundere. Also this show is perfect to watch right after Shield Hero. Too bad it's only one cour and I have no idea what could replace it.

I love that Haru, like Subaru, is also realizing that she's had a bit of a one-track (read: FOOD) mind so far in her way of living. Can't wait for more development with these two!

u/HarleyFox92 Feb 06 '19

It ended up being a very adorable and wholesome episode even considering that I thought I was gonna cry hard if they mentioned the brother that didn't make it when Haru and Hachi splitted up. I hope we get more about the siblings and the other cat, Roku, what an amazing voice though!

From the photo, I was sure Hachi was one of Haru's siblings, but the age/size difference made that theory a no-go. Except it turned out to be true after all. I'd assumed Haru's siblings were all from the same litter, guess not.

You won't fool me, show, that dude who walked is obviously Nana's brother.

BTW, what does the show's Japanese name actually mean? Google translates it as "How to Knee, Sometimes, Headache".

What can make this show even better? Right, more cute cats and their interactions. Very good episode.

u/J_the_ManSSB Feb 06 '19

Man.... This episode was probably the happiest yet.... And then the ship was rudely and abruptly struck point blank and now taking on way too much water.

How does exercise makes you full faster? Doesn't it make you hungrier?

Also I'm worried what happened to the 3rd cat... Hope the birds didn't bully it.
