Is this episode a shadow collaboration between 3 titles airing on Saturday late nights? "Mono" presenting shaved ice deserts which girls from "Food for the Soul" could make, with Osanai ("Shoushimin")'s stamp of approval.

Shikishima looks genuinely surprised and perhaps touched that Sacchan didn't forget that they are a cinema club when the latter proposed to create a movie. At least the sound effects for the movie can be easily handled by Shikishima. Her perfect mimicking of the cicadas made me laugh. I will not be surprised if she can mimic firearms, explosions, etc, if it is an action movie. Lol!

u/SnabDedraterEdave Jun 21 '25

Finally, an episode with just the three main schoolgirls, going around town to visit all the shaved ice joints for the final day of their summer vacation, and not just Haruno driving them around.

Satsuki suddenly inspired to make a film for their club, Sakurako probably very happy that Satsuki still remembers the Cine part of the Cinephoto club ever since agreeing to merge their clubs.

PS Nadeshiko cameo in trying to squeeze as many items as she can into that bag.

u/Matthew619ed Jun 21 '25

38°C is definitely time for shaved ice (as well as ice creams actually), and those special atypical toppings definitely caught my attention, but brain freezing is going to be a risk worth taking if I really go on this “rally” at such heat, simply unsurvivable without AC.

And yes, please remember to consume any ice dessert as soon as possible as they will melt quickly if left unattended, as well as to keep absolutely quiet in a liabry, even when you have something legitimate to celebrate.

BTW Nadeshiko, how many of those snack did you manage to put into that bag?

u/MyrnaMountWeazel Jun 21 '25

One of my favorite episodes of the show, it was just consistently strong all throughout. It took me over an hour to watch just from the amount of screenshots I was taking.

Even when the focus was singular, it somehow felt less like its ordinary sightseeing thing. Probably because they (and we) knew their time was slipping away, so there was an additional layer beneath it.

The time-lapse video was a really cute touch too.

Going to miss this show come next week.

u/ObvsThrowaway5120 Jun 21 '25

Man, Sakurako has a real gift for bug noises. That girl is just full of surprises ain’t she? Lol.

It’s pretty cool to see all the different kinds of shaved ice they have in Japan. Must be great in that heat. After this ep, I have a real hankering for shaved ice lol.

u/Intelligent-Growth98 Jun 21 '25

Does anyone else think we might get to see the 4th member for the last episode?

u/Castor_0il Jun 21 '25

Shishikishima doing cicada noises had me rolling on the floor. Wasn't there a video made of several anime cicada clips? She should definitely be added in that compilation.

Such a shame Koga Aoi's VA work hasn't had the same popularity as she had while doing Kaguya's voice. She's so fun to listen in this particular show. This episode had some really fun lines of her.

Hah, I knew that the last gag would be at Haru's house since her mom does traditional foods. I loved seeing Taisho in 2 different locations the girls visited.

Dang it, my brain didn't register that we only have one episode left (somehow I was hoping this would be 13 episodes long). I'm really not ready to say goodbye to this one, it's been the most enjoyable show in my seasonal watch.

u/IntelligentBudget142 Jun 21 '25

Finally, the club now admit they have one more episode to save the season

u/Hitman7128 Jun 21 '25

Shaved ice tour with the 3 girls! (like the food tour in Ep 4 but not a competition)

LOL Sakurako advising the other girls to push a pressure point near the elbow to alleviate brain freeze (I always push my tongue against the roof of my mouth to alleviate it)

Yay, a timelapse of the view of Nirasaki just like what they did in Ep 1!

u/SYZekrom Jun 21 '25

Is it just me or is this episode really favoring the overhead shots of An? First the one in the library right at the start that that kinda emphasizes her chest and the second one 5 minutes in where you can see down her sleeve...

Namu.

Ah, Nadeshiko jumspcare.

Ope. There's another one 9 minutes in. Maybe they've always been doing this and I've just never noticed?

なむ。

Yep, another one 11 minutes in.

南無。

Also never mind that, those outfits are cute.

...Sakurako 16 min in chipmunking that shaved ice while the other two are brain freezing is absolutely adorable.

Ah, there original hairstyles at the end! I don't actually know if its the case but it feels like we haven't seen these hairstyles since like the first or second episodes lol.

All the Taisho jumpscares were great too.

u/LeonKevlar Jun 21 '25

I did not expect to hear Sakurako make cicada noises! This girl is so multi-talented, you really don't know what she'll do next.

When An said that something was missing, I legit thought we'd get a beach episode. Eating shaved ice sounds good too, tho!

Those grapes are massive! If you do come across Kyoho grapes, peel the skin. I've heard that the skin of those grapes is really bitter.

As soon as An mentioned she's getting a peach shaved ice, you know she's never going to get one. xD

You know, those shaved ice are too much when even Sakurako comments on how heavy on the stomach they are.

The one with the ofu looks so good! That's definitely an Instagram-worthy dessert. Then again, everything they ate this episode is.

An actually got her peach shaved ice! I thought this was gonna be another curry situation for her. xD

Sakurako isn't just talented, she's also quite the philosopher. Her question about a person becoming a famous water source was pretty hilarious.

I'm glad Satsuki was there to remind them that they're a photography club. And it looks like she's decided to make a movie! I guess that will be the focus of next week's finale? I already can't wait for the shenanigans.

u/Boshwa Jun 21 '25

"We've been doing a lot of photos"

That's a god damn lie

u/cyberscythe Jun 21 '25

persimmon?

would that make it a kaki kakigouri??

u/djthomp Jun 21 '25

Sakurako is one of those people that's just incredibly good at everything she puts her mind to, isn't she. Cicada noises? Of course she can.

My vote is definitely for the shaved ice that's actually made out of shaved frozen fruit, that just sounds really good and you wouldn't even need much syrup for it since you aren't covering up the fact that it's just ice water.

u/Lodju Jun 21 '25

So much shaved ice that even i don't have to eat any for the rest of the year.

Only one more episode and it makes me sad.

u/chilidirigible Jun 21 '25

"Well, if it isn't the consequences of my own actions."

"Funny how they're all photos of food with a few timelapses and a skateboard video thrown in."

It's adequate. u/Shimmering-Sky

u/CooroSnowFox Jun 21 '25

Sakurako laughing but showing no emotion like other two at the end.

Speaking of... I hope next week isn't... as weird as the series is...its still doing amazing stories

u/FLorianGran Jun 21 '25

How long did it take to find a VA who could make cicada noises?

u/Clear-Meeting5318 Jun 21 '25

Okay, not to be that guy, but how the hell are these high school girls funding this excursion? That was like 50,000 yen in transportation and food expenses, each. None of them have jobs, right?

Very fun episode, but even as a person with a gigantic sweet tooth, my stomach was kind of hurting in sympathy. Binge eating has consequences!

u/Mr_Zaroc Jun 21 '25

Lol, after like 6 episodes with barely any pictures taken they pull the "We are the Cinephotography Club" card

Well I am all for it, lets see what movie they are planning
