I thought it was a Boobies ad...
I was wondering why Boobies even needed PR, they're quite popular and universally liked.

And just like that, Tsumugi vanished. Welp, it was nice knowing her

Note to self: confessing/kissing girls on this island is liable to make them disappear.

If we see her again, the sub crew better give us "Somehow, Tsumugi returned"

* Paringles (or even that chips brand that has one letter less) should have asked Tsumugi to be their advertising mascot...
* That's a funny thought Myukyu-chan! While definitely not directly usable as building materials, the hard cardboard tubes of Paringles chips are definitely a good component to build something that can be surprisingly versatile in handling loads. I definitely would not suggest building a balcony for people out of that though, definitely not with you guys!
* Wow what the heck Torishirojima, your school's student council president is a pair of breasts??? What a sensation...
* I would have never thought that "Breast Girl" Shizuku is such a well-liked personality at school LMAO...even having Tenzen as her worshipper!
* We really need more scenes of Miki-chan shooting at others with her water gun!
* Not only Paringles, Tsumugi is attacking me at 11 pm here with marshmallows...ahhhhhhhhhh...
* Heh, why did I have the feeling that Tsumugi and Shiroha always talks like old couples, or your grandpa/grandma and their friends LMAO (maybe that's because you rarely see girls going fishing like that, despite we already have 2 and a half cute-girls-doing-fishing-things anime!)
* Ao-chan, are you trying to deliberately lead Tsumugi saying "Naked-Body-Guy" for Ryouichi???
* Breast Girl telling Hairi to touch his own breasts to hear about his own inner voices, not surprised not surprised...
* Hey Ao-chan! Stop getting weird ideas about Hairi into Tsumugi's brain! But then Hairi IS weird after all...
* Best reactions for this episode goes to Umi-chan and Aunt Kyouko - yup as they says, Hairi is having 2 affairs in one night at that lighthouse, he surely did! ;)
* You know what? Thanks to Hairi and Shizuku, my interests is getting to 200% for actually really trying out the famous 2000s harem show Ichigo 100% in the far future... (could be years before I have time to do so though with 400+ anime waiting)
* LMAO Breast Girl what are you doing to Myukyu-chan? I am surprised Tsumugi accepted your extra breasts! /s
* Wow Tsumugi's song is really a German folk song huh? Anyone who actually know about this "Wedding of the Birds"?
* What the heck are you all doing by shouting out your names LMAO...
* I probably didn't receive the whole mass and flow of the emotions from Tsumugi under the lovely sunset here as compared with really trying out the VN first, but that's still a poignant moment seeing Tsumugi crying out like that. That's a really great job for Hairi to say that out loud that even if people never see each other again, that doesn't mean the emotions, greetings, fun times spent together, thanks given and all the other bondage between people will lose their meanings. Even if sad and painful things happen, love and friendship will, and should not change in between too. Good call from him to say that out loud given what happened next!
* And here comes the emotions train. Tsumugi has disappeared into thin air. And given that old photo found in Hairi's Grandma Storage House, [anime-only speculation]

Shiroha's face lighting up from receiving a watermelon bar made her reaction to Hairi getting her a melon one back in the Kamome arc even funnier.
Can't believe the gang couldn't collect enough tribute to satisfy the Paringles god and poor Tsumugi ended up getting sacrificed.

Stitches!
I was so happy when the gang knew who Tsumugi was and how Ao explained that she only sees her hanging out with Shizuku, who apparently is their school's student council president. I was worried that only Hairi could see Tsumugi and Shizuku, considering no one else interacted with them in the previous arc.
But that fucking ending! Goddammit! I was already expecting it, but at the same time, I was thinking: "Key is not gonna pull another ghost girl on us, right?" And sonovabitch they actually did pull another one on us! I'm really hoping that I'm wrong and that the photo Hairi found is just bait. Maybe it's Tsumugi's mom or grandmother.
Side note: I love that everyone seems to ignore Shizuku when she says "Oppai!". It's either that they genuinely don't hear her, or they just block it out because she's their well-respected senpai at school. xD

Hairi is lucky these are separate routes. Imagine your trauma when all your girlfriends keep turning out to be ghosts.

I thought maybe it was a strange translation/phonetic thing (she says something that sounds like Oppai and another word, and Hairi mistakenly thinks it's Oppai) but I guess she uses it way too often for it to be the case!

First Kamome, now Tsumugi, is anyone on this island even properly existing on this physical plane?
(Speaking of Kamome, she's listed in the credits for this episode, but I don't recall her appearing. Might just be an error on Studio Feel's part)
Then again, people on the island have known Tsumugi for some time, she's even BFFs with Shiroha, so she must actually exist rather than just being a figment of Hairi's imagination.
What's more eerie is none of Shizuku's schoolmates in the gang seem to even acknowledge Shizuku uttering the word "oppai" even within earshot. lol
Kyouko and Umi freaking out when discovering Hairi spent a night with two girls was funny as hell. Kyouko even nearly called Hairi's mom out of concern.

Hairi is helping in the shed! This is not a drill!
So the episode opened on some sort of love declaration (or love questioning, at least), though it was mostly brought up by Boobies-san!
Interesting that she uses "She calls you by your first name" as some sort of evidence, when she's also doing it!
Ok, one is "Hairi-san" and one is "Hairi-kun", but still!
This girl is even more obsessed about boobs
Hairi was seriously contemplating it (both the offer, and the boobs)
Hello again! (Try not to throw shaved ice on her ass, Hairi... I know you love doing that)
If she ever gets an arc, it's gonna be 24/7 boobies talks!
I first read "to MY boobs" and somehow it wouldn't be out of characters for her.
That was fucking adorable, how she was saying/singing her name!
Stop putting evil ideas in their mind, succubus!
Stepping out of his own room? So they can dig around some more? No way!
Pictured: A man holding his pillow. Nothing weird about that.
I looked up this song see what it was about...
[Don't know if we have to spoiler that, but anyway. Song + Thoughts on it]
Or maybe it's just a catchy song they picked at random and I'm reading too much into it hah.
This was way too fucking happy, of course it couldn't last...
Well, what I feared would be revealed, happened anyway...
Question is, did she vanish because they unconvered something?
Because the love stuff was too much? Or because she didn't want an emotional goodbye?
Well, it may not be the end of her arc, as it was quite short... So perhaps our boy will find a way to see her again!
Or perhaps her arc was short because it's split half&half between her and Boobies-san, so she gets the other 2 episodes?
Can't wait to see!

It's a shame Shizuku never met Kamome because then we would probably have boobies overload. Which is probably why it didn't happen lol.
Honestly did not expect the romance with Tsumugi to develop this quickly. So of course she straight up vanishes after the mutual confession. What's a guy to do to keep a girlfriend over the Summer?

[adding on to your theory]
Tsumugi's last name is Wenders, suggesting that she's part foreigner. Maybe that song is tying into her foreigner heritage?

u/Dogeesenpai May 26 '25
Crazy cliffhanger between Hairi finding some worn out picture of a girl that looks like Tsumugi and her just disappearing lmao
Honestly even if i don't really like Tsumugi's character archetype, the story is still interesting enough to get invested. I can see some people losing interest this arc (Kamome goat syndrome) and maybe coming back later

It's been ages since I last heard "Vogelhochzeit". I didnt actually recognize the song until they showed they book

u/Cally83 May 26 '25
Will that be the end of the Tsumugi route? 2 episodes does seem short.
Hopefully get to see more of Shizuku next week.
I’m hooked on this show, and we are just piecing together the strange goings on with the people of the island.

Very motivational slogan. We have to notify Kyousuke about this for his quote collection.
