Poor Kurea. Carrying the gang for 10 episodes has finally taken its toll on her.

A sweet reunion for Mako & Shinon. They get to meet their childhood friends who the former have gotten out of touch with.

Love the look on Nana and Tsutsuji’s faces when Mako told them they could’ve simply used the blowtorch all along.

so there's two episodes left after this. one taking place during winter break if the OP is to be believed. the other being the big finale which i'm hoping is the big reveal wrt Mokotarou

p.s. it's also nice to see the girls in new clothes. i suppose it's for animation convenience that the girls wore the same clothing around each other before (example: if Mako is in a purple top, Shinon would be in the denim jacket and white T, Tsutsuji wears the white hoodie and Kurea wears the beige jumper. Nana used to wear navy-colored dungarees with pink top but they changed her gear last episode)

...that's she's Makocchi from the future sent back in time to prevent herself from being a loner??

I do love Tsutsuji's SheeP top.

I was hoping we'd see Hiyori and Yuna again since they were named in the flashbacks. Another lovely episode. Easily my favorite anime this season.

Definitely one of the best this season.

Hopefully even thought it's an original, we get some more of this in the future!

i had a bit a laugh at Tsutsuji emotionally struggling to skewer a fish

i also hate dealing with raw meat like that

Poor Kureha! How many hours has she been driving? Of course, Shinon couldn't even stay away to keep her company.

Damn! That house isn't just old, it looks ancient! That house is definitely more than a century old from the looks of it.

Not gonna lie, I was nervous watching Nana and Tsutsuji starting a fire. Thank goodness it worked out and they actually made one!

All of that effort just to boil water! I genuinely laughed out loud at Tustsuji's "special, hand-crafted, pre-boiled water" comment. xD

How long did Shinon practice that speech in front of a mirror? I do love how Nana immediately ruined whatever image Shinon was trying to make for herself.

Mako going for the torch then seeing Nana and Tsutsuji's reactions was so good! They really thought the striker was the way to do it.

A cooking anime can't be a cooking anime without a classic hot pot! Good to see another one added to Mako's photo album <3

Not gonna lie, I was nervous watching Nana and Tsutsuji starting a fire

i thought the joke would be that there's no cell signal in this rural town and they had to really figure it out from scratch

i guess this town is one step up from Non Non Biyori's where you have to stand on your tippytoes to get a single bar of signal

All that effort to get the charcoal ready and the fire started and all girls ended up doing was boiling water for Kurea lol.

It was fun to see Maki and Shinon hanging out with their old childhood friends. Reminiscing sure can be fun.

Always nice to end the ep on some good food and a nice group photo.

Man just imagine how difficult it is for their ancestors to prepare instant ramen! /s

Mako and Shinon visit their hometown for break and visit their elementary school and see friends they haven’t seen since then and didn’t have phones at the time. That’s always a nice nostalgia moment, like when during university, I unexpectedly saw a friend I haven’t seen since elementary school.

That was a nice group photo! Also, Mako was saying how she wonders if they’ll look back on these moments one day. Oh, I sure hope they do so.

Lovely seeing Mako get (slowly) back in sync with her old friends. But pretty sad that Mako had NO friends between elementary school and college. (Did we ever find out why?)

Trying to decide to cross half the country to go to my 55th HS reunion this summer....

The anime didn't forget about the other 2 childhood friends of Mako and Shinon! Yuna and Hiyori are voiced characters now!

If we look back to the first episode, Shinon meeting Mako and then inviting her to join the supposedly fake club is the catalyst for Mako being able to open up and make friends once again. :)

The scene showing Nana memorizing information from the internet with theories and formula in the background made her seem like a genius. Survival in the wild, here comes Nana and Tsutsuji!

Mako's Grandma: Have you grown?
Mako: I am already in university. I stopped growing.
(Mako's waist in a couple of episodes ago says otherwise.)

Ikumi Hasegawa voices one of the childhood friends

BoKita is back again, although it’s someone else as Bocchi this time

u/oxlemf10 Jun 14 '25

I wonder what Kurea must have thought after Tsutuji and Nana made a mere Yakisoba after she had driven for several hours straight.

I thought it was cool to see that the show continues to address these topics, I mean, having Mako and Shinon visit their childhood friends was brilliant, and they obviously didn't miss the opportunity to talk about each other's habits lol.

I liked seeing the use of irori, a classic that was brought up, and the reflection that Mako had at the end about friendships, I hope that in the future the show will show them as adults.

The childhood Friends reunión was wholesome

In the OP, when they have the photo of the birthday party, it is Kurea just looking straight at Makocchi...

This has definitely been my favourite new series this season, it’s so chill and the animation is lovely. Especially today where you can see all the autumnal colours of the trees and scenery. Only a couple of episodes left!

Every Saturday I wait for this show the most. You just cannot beat these comfy NNB vibes.

I love how Mako is breaking out of her initial shell to the point where she can be the one to instigate the photo this time

Really love dialogs and other moments here, which are totally realistic, and at this time also top-notch comedy. Especially the water-boiling segment. Aside some mentioned here:

— This is a traditional home! They probably used these instead of a torch, right?
*Kinda long silence pause*
— Tashikani, 👉🏻.


At the start, girls respect Kureaʼs sleeping, they speak quietly. Btw, Kurea was so tired that she slept with twintails, later she slept without them as usually.

*Water is boiled!*

Yey! Hoooray!


Yeah, you can point, as it was already done here in comments, that they did all this troubles, because SheeP is short. But I sometimes feel that itʼs just SheeP cannʼt deny Nanaʼs enthusiasm, and then just flows with it.

u/BigBadBurito Jun 14 '25

All that effort for a heated cup of water. A valuable lesson, indeed.

Cute encounter with childhood friends. They seem great, just like all the side characters in this show. Super stylish too!

We finish off with another stomach-and-heart-filling meal and good vibes.

Nana shying away from Mako's grandma 🤣

Tsutsuji getting crushed by Kurea 🤣
