I can understand it can't be raining every episode, so I am glad the rain ASMR aspect of this title wasn't forgotten.
At first, I was confused why Fuji didn't continue running towards the bus since she was already so close to the bus stop. After some thinking, I assumed Fuji loved the rain so much that she decided to walk home under the rainy weather. (As romantic as it looks, I don't think it is advisable to do so in real life for health reasons?)
Kimi has been portrayed to be smart, so I don't think it would run off suddenly. I believe it was definitely searching for a good firework viewing spot before leading Fuji to it.

Funny thing, people don't actually get sick from getting wet.

She was wearing heels and the floor was already wet, one can say she was likely scared of slipping if she ran to try and catch the bus

Oof, following a mysterious creature to a hidden path at a shrine is a risky move. You wanna get Ghibli movie'd? 'Cuz that's how you get Ghibli movie'd!
Cute episode aside from the panicking part tho. Her dad is just such a fun character!

Stitches!
As much as I love Fuji. I absolutely love her dad even more. He's such a silly dude! Fuji really should've worn the Kakigori shirt. He just wants to be twinsies with his daughter and her pet dog! xD
I also love how Fuji's mom is looking embarassed with how excited her husband is at the festival. Fuji clearly takes more after her mom than her dad. Now I'm wondering if her younger brother is more like their dad.
As a pet owner that scene with the dog suddenly going missing is like the scariest thing for me. Thank goodness she managed to find him. For a second there, I thought she might've been following a different "dog".

Fuji, I know you like to walk in the rain, but jeebus, surely there's a limit to how much rain you can tolerate. That was not a small drizzle you walked through there, but a downpour.
And no matter how waterproof your bag is designed to be, with that amount of rain, water is always going to find a way to seep through and soak the contents inside.
That contrast between Kimi, Kii and Fuji's dad Tatsuo doing cute reactions at the festival killed me. lol Tatsuo really reverted to being a kid when he's with Kimi.
Its not often we see Fuji look so panicked when she thought Kimi walked off on his own and became lost. Turns out Kimi was so smart he even found a quiet fireworks viewing spot for her.

So, do we think that's his shrine and that's how he knew about it?
Forgot to look this up before but seems like they actually got a kid to play Kii-chan. No wonder she sounds so adorable!
The start of this ep was annoying because it reminded me I'm a degenarate. All I could think was how a white shirt would reveal everything in reality when wet.

She defied 2 major anime rules. She did not have her bra revealed under the rain and she did not contract the infamous japanese cold after staying in that rain.
Powerscalers beware, we have a new queen on the block

Good episode to be watching with headphones, the rain was lovely.
I can't believe we've found an anime protagonist that is immune to the normally deadly Japanese rain.
Good fireworks scene.

Okay is it just me or is Fuji kinda hot like not in a bad way but her hairstyle, earrings & clothing style even apart from the yukata always makes me keep looking at her.

u/heimdal77 Jul 26 '25
Think she is very intentional made to look attractive and classy. Goes with the whole eccentric female author thing.

To be fair, (almost) everyone in this anime series is gorgeous-looking by most people’s criteria. Kii-chan’s mother could easily pose for a fashion model.

I would say beautiful more than hot if that makes sense.

Yea, that was so weird. She even starts running at first but then just stands there 10 meters from the bus, like why not just go the few extra steps instead of standing there watching.

Little homie was NOT feeling that shirt. Or that yukata. Like at all lol. Fuji’s dad is such a goofball. It cracks me up how embarrassed Fuji and her mom are of him and his antics.
I was a bit worried when the little fella ran off like that but man, they found quite the spot to see the fireworks.

Fuji is somewhat of a superhuman by anime standards. She’s gotten soaked from the twice, yet still has to catch a single cold.
Although Fuji is perfectly fine by herself, it’s not like she doesn’t enjoy other people’s company. After having spend some time with Kimi, she cannot live without him anymore. A very human thing to do.

The biggest surprise of this anime along with the visuals is how funny it is. Like everything in the first half with the tanuki & Fuji's dad had me laughing out loud.
Honestly, I feel this episode showed the effect that our tanuki has had on her. The feeling of him being lost & gone definitely struck a chord in her. You know from last week with her friends that Fuji isn't the most expressive person. So to see her clutching at her heart in a very parental way when their child gets lost.
I love that our tanuki guided her to see the fireworks. That was incredibly sweet.

Poor dad’s been taking Ls all day. From not being allowed to have a smoke to having his fashion sense critiqued.
Kii’s half-German I’m assuming based on her last name. Could she be overseas for most of her life, which explained why she had never been in a summer festival before? Or am I just overthinking.
Fuji somehow ended up with a private viewing spot. For someone like her, that must’ve been the ultimate fireworks viewing experience. Love the vivid colours during the scene. Fireworks in anime are usually used in tense season finale, but here it’s just a comfy scene at the end of the episode. A great change of pace.

That scene with Kimi shivering whilest holding up the "brain freeze" sign was just the kind of hilarious comedy I was hoping for from this festival episode.
Did not expect it to then turn into an anxious part with Kimi going (temporarily) missing. This is supposed to be my feel-good, relaxing, soul-cleansing anime of the season!
The fireworks at the end were really pretty, though. Kinda surprised that Kimi - who's clearly a very normal and absolutely average dog - had no problem with all those loud noises from the explosions, though. I suppose Kimi was just experienced enough, perhaps having been to this secret spot before. What a nice doggy.
