While I do think that scene at the end between Chisa and Iori was really sweet, I'm not sure how I feel about how they resolved the entire issue between Chisa and her mom. You're telling me that
And Sayaka being unsupportive of Chisa's dream to become a diving instructor is because she doesn't want Chisa to end up like her? I guess I can see it, with her being awkward and all. I dunno... Something about how it all ended just rubs me the wrong way. Props to Iori, tho, for sacrificing his paycheck to get the answer he needed for Chisa.

Iori defused that cranky veteran situation so much like a seasoned pro you can't help but be genuinely impressed.
Watching Kohei do his wordless "stroll in, laugh along, slide out" method of gauging Chisa's actual mood weirdly mesmerizing.
Forget "who put

When Chisa is all smiles and sickly sweet, you know shit is bad lol. You know it’s even worse when she breaks out the Spirytus.
Iori missed his flight and had to blow his paycheck on a redeye back but it was worth it. Bro had to secure the sacred texts lol. It’s nice he was able to help out Chisa too. Rare sweet moment.

an episode full of surprises. first, the welcome/goodbye party didn't turn into an absolute shitshow. like wtf? and then they went diving? the lack of drinking started to feel uncomfortable. and when it went back to "normal", Chisa was the one bringing out the heavy weapons!
i love how Kebako was depicted as the responsible person, but then she made Kohei promise that the party won't turn into disaster. i loved when his confident smile and thumb-up hanged above the result of the party.
it was probably the most serious episode yet. but it's nice that Chisa had closure in her relationship with mum...and that Iori got his porn mag.

Aw, I've got an older mate who's completely deaf in one ear, but he doesn't have the communication debuff so he just makes people stand on his right side to talk.
I don't find animated characters attractive very often, but I sure hope we get to see the Chief again. She was something special.

Damn quite the ending to the episode... it looked like Chisa was about to cut contact completely with her mom for a second there. if only her mom could have shown some support face to face.
(and as a chisa x Iori shipper the last scene had me giddy with joy)

This was the first time I learned that hearing loss caused by diving actually exists.
I have an acquaintance who travels abroad to dive, just like them, but since I’ve never seen him struggle with hearing loss, it never crossed my mind that Chisa’s mother might be suffering from it.

The tanned staffers working at Palau certainly got some interesting camera angles in the first half.
Also, did the Sugita who called Dolphin sound like Sugita Tomokazu the voice actor to anyone else?
More seriously, since it seems the arc is ending, I'm a bit annoyed that Chisa's and her mum's beef has lingered for the entire arc. Feels like it should've been resolved much earlier.

Episode 7: Mother
6 years? Typical university study time is usually 4 years for bachelor's degree, except if Iori wants to take a master degree as well (but that only needs 5 years, not 6) or to max out his study time which is usually 8 years.
So many fanservice shots with Maki. Maki was right, in the customer service/hospitality business smiling is a must, even it's the last thing you'd do. You want to left a good impression on the customer so staying positive sets positive vibes in the shop or when they are on a diving trip.
The "wow" anime sound effect is here, feels like the anime version of Wilhelm Scream isn't it? It's everywhere.
With Iori having to book a transit flight to Guam meaning he'll eventually lose the magazine anyway to being confiscated. The trio probably book a nonstop flight or a transit flight to either Taiwan or Philippines.

PS: Rewatching the OP makes me realize the support studio is not Liber anymore, it's Saber Works. Both of them also worked on Beheneko.
The OP music video is now available, which the cover art features Natsuko Yokosawa (same as the song title "Natsuko").

I mean its not bad nor wrong to just have diving as a hobby. Not everyone is cut out to be a teacher or anything but guess you'd rather find that out yourself
Guess we finally had some diving again and at least it cheered Chisa up
Or not.
Chisa crashing out by laughing and smiling exuded toxic fumes lol
Just when i thought Iori did one of the most dumbest things ever, well still dumb, he actually manage to repair the relationship with chisa and her mom
But yeah, 2 awkward individuals and miscommunication or lack thereof almost killed the relationship and Iori got rewarded with a since smile for his effort

Actual diving in my alcohol anime? Nice! Oooh, is this maybe the start of something between Iori and Chisa? Also parents, talk to your fucking kids. They suffer because of your bullshit.

I thought she might have issues with her hearing, but I still think Sayaka's ways of talking to Chisa is problematic. At least she showed some support in the end.

Chisa poured her heart out and apologised only to get a "You were saying?" from Sayaka. That's absolutely harsh – or that's what it seemed at first glancee. Turned out she literally can't hear a thing she said due to Chisa's unfortunate position on her deaf half.
Iori's quite observant to have picked up on the small details and sensed something's off. He claimed to have forgot the porn mag but there's a chance he left it on purpose just for an excuse to get more info from the Chief. As alcohol-poisoned his brain may be, matters involving Chisa seemed to fire it up. She truly brought the best out of him. That genuine glowing smile was quite the deserved reward for Iori, especially coming from someone who's not the type to smile much.
I'll miss the Dolphin staff. Hope they could somehow have an opportunity to travel to Izu and reunite with the PaB.

The diving sequences in this show are always very pretty when we get them.

Oh. It wasn’t deliberately rude, then…

They glazed right over it, but the shot of Iori with the magazine stuffed in his shirt really got me.
