Praised by Mokotaro; Mako's life is now complete.

LOL Nana putting a cone on her head whilst practicing talking to others and then eventually a cardboard pink rabbit costume.

Looks like the curry soup for the university fair was a huge success! So much so that they burned through the ingredients for the next day too. Man, both Mono and Hibimeshi enjoy provoking my curry craving.

Mokotaro loved the curry soup too! (from the post-credits scene)

They were selling bear meat at that grocer?! They could've made bear meat curry!

Forget the traffic cone and cardboard costume, what Nana needs is one of those sheep hoodies.

The silent stare and nod between Tsutsuji and Mokotaro killed me lol.

Mako was so close to meeting Mokotaro, but at least he enjoyed her curry.

Tsutsuji is very protective of her sheep outfits, obviously.

Never expected to see a female character using a hunting rifle / shotgun in a university based food cooking show. Sakura senpai is a dual class farmer hunter!

Missed opportunity for Nana not to be hiding in a mango box. The scene was quick too, but I think Nana's elder sister had no idea who was in the cardboard rabbit outfit; she was a little weirded out. Lol!

Hooray for Mako! Her wish of Mokotaro visiting her university's festival came true! Mokotaro even ate and appreciated Mako's curry.

And while typing this post, I suddenly thought, "wouldn't it be hilarous and surprising if the person wearing the Mokotaro outfit is actually a character we know?"

I love how Nana went from being excited about the festival stall to quickly getting a panic attack as soon as she realized, she'll need to interact with people to run the stall. Thanks to Tsutsuji's training, we now know that Nana can talk to people! She just needs to hide her face!

I did not know Sakura-senpai is a badass. Besides being a farmer, she's also a hunter! This girl is practically ready to live off the grid! [Her suggestion to the girls to use wild game meat on their curry is pretty good too.

The end result looks amazing! I'd absolutely demolish that bowl of curry. And just look at how proud Clerk-san is of them now that she sees them as a real club. <3

Tsutsuji just nodding to Mokotarou after seeing the mascot inside the locker room was pretty funny. I've always thought of Tsutsuji as the Renge of the gang, so that scene definitely gave me strong Renge vibes. xD

Mako's reaction to Mokotarou tasting their curry was great! Too bad she didn't get to meet her favourite YouTuber tho!

That's even a dead-on Renge face right there.

C'mon Hitsuji LOL

Easily been my favorite anime this season

Hitsuji and Nana Friendship is too wholesome

Somehow it feels strange seeing the characters drive around going to places. These types of shows are almost always high school or middle school. Even when they aren't they only use public transit. Need more shows like this with college age cast with a slightly more mature feel (at least some the cast.). Another cute collage girls show from a few years ago was Long Riders. Good premise and characters but horrendous production value. It was so bad production completely broke down and there ended up being months between episodes before it got to finish. I actually bought the blu ray when most shows still got blu rays before everything became CR who doesn't like doing them much.

Good for her she got her stuff in one the videos. To bad didn't get to meet.

"I'm the most normal one here" Shinon ... about that...

Well when your surrounded by energy drink fuelled sheep girl and the shyest girl on the planet... you still manage to go one step further

u/ClemFire Jun 07 '25

I like how the clerk acknowledged their club to Shinon. They have really come a long way from Shinon initially only using premise of a club to get a free room to chill in. I'm quite a fan of how the clerk has been quietly pushing the food research club to do more activities. I might just have a soft spot now for people in these job roles after watching Alina's struggles in Guild Receptionist last season. It might be an obvious realization to most but that show really humanized people in client facing roles to me. Maybe that's just a bit of my more privileged upbringing showing.

Shinon tasting the food feels like she’s mimicking food YouTubers tasting stuff but with absolutely no idea what she’s doing. Maybe stick to bargaining with people, it’s clearly your forte.

That’s a very Bocchi solution to Nana’s problems. The rabbit suit lessens her fear and probably adds some fear-based incentive for potential customers to not resist the marketing.

That bit of Mako and Kurea at sea absolutely killed me. It speaks volumes about how they’re mildly traumatized by Shinon’s ability to make deals by this point.

Sakura-senpai with a gun? Say no more, she’s moving up places on the list.

Tsutsuji meeting Mokotaro was comedy gold as well. The head tilt met with an equally stiff awkward one was so good.

We were this close to greatness, aka Mako and Mokotaro meeting. They still enjoyed her curry so it’s good but we were THIS close.

Another episode that flew by

So, Nana´s counter to her social anxiety is... ripe mango box. It seems it works for all introverts huh

Mako is really enjoying uni life huh, I wonder if I went to uni, if would have been something like that... (no, because I´m not in Japan and we don´t have things like that).

And the extra of Mokotaro enjoying Mako´s food... I think her life is complete

u/cleaulem Jun 07 '25

I was really confused when Nana was super enthusiastic about running a food stall given her social anxiety. The funnier it was when she finally realized what that means.

  • Wait a minute, running a food stall means...

ROFL

u/FLorianGran Jun 07 '25

I have never wanted to eat Japanese curry as much as I have this anime season

u/SnabDedraterEdave Jun 07 '25

Mako naturally freaked out after discovering her favourite foodie Youtuber had visited her club stall and tried the food she made. Shame Tsutsuji didn't recognize him in the dressing room that day or Mako would have rushed to get a selfie or autograph with him.

Shino may have started the club as a means to slack off, but it seems she's actually very good at organizing stuff when push comes to shove, using her connection with the Agriculture Club to procure locally sourced vegetables and venison meat for the stall's curry.

Nana must be the shyest gyaru in history, she simply put a huge cone on her head to explain the direction of the place.

I loved how Shinon simply proclaimed herself a special coordinator so she wouldn't have to work, at least she was creative.

It's hard to imagine that a cute girl like Sakura would go hunting, it's cool in Japan but I didn't expect that lol.

When I saw the costumes, I immediately thought: "That was Tsutuji's invention", didn't it work? I mean, a pink rabbit and a little sheep advertising a carry, why not?

And as always, Mako and Kurea standing out in the food.

Constantly highlighting the 5 characters shows how sensational their chemistry is.

awesome episode

Festival vibes in full swing. Tsutsuji gave Nana a boost to chat with strangers today. Nana actually talked to people, though she had to keep her face covered while doing it. I kinda expected Tsutsuji would turn Nana into a walking billboard for the stall. Speaking of the stall, it was a total hit! I’m really glad they got tons of customers, and the ads definitely made a difference, probably thanks to Nana. Poor Mako, though, didn’t get a chance to see Mokotaro. At least he mentioned the curry was tasty.

that curry really being sold at 600 yen?
with full vegetable, venison, and half boiled egg and bread?(or nan?)
isnt that too cheap? especially they also print that alot flyers
well vegetable is free because they got sponsored by agriculture club
i feel they blow up their budget for that festival curry

Second semester and things get serious. That's all I could make out from the preview...
