So we're on the "girls fixating on other girls' boobs and groping them" thing now? :eyeroll:
I'm not commenting on the rest, except that the underwater world makes less and less sense. At this point I can only think that they decided on an underwater setting for half of the story to show off the studio's animation skills, came up with some "dressing" for it like the ena, and then left it at that. |

This episode was a lot better than the last two episode which had way too much bullshit overacting and melodrama, but even then episode had a little too much of it. Otherwise, it was an ok episode I guess, when in context with the rest.
As kuromitsu though, I did facepalm at the girls groping other girls boobs section since it's incredily overused and cliche and belongs better in a yuri or psuedo-yuri series like yuri yuri or love lab. I'm still dumbfounded why the characters are acting like it srs business since like the 3rd episode and it just proves to me that a timeskip is incoming with the mid-series climax coming at the halfway mark. If that's the case, then I guess I can forgive it for feeling its in a hurry to portray its story and premise, because I seriously can't see an "Anohana" extended for 2 cours without completing exhausting itself, because to be frank it's already near exhaustion. |

I liked this episode less than the last few. And yeah women don't generally grope other women. Only in anime!
However I did like the theme of the ending about wanting everything to stay the same even though that's not possible.

Chisaki doesn't want the status quo to change. Imagine what could happen if Hikari and Manaka start to date Land People. Seeing Chisaki's downfall requires a timeskip. Timeskip to 18 yo is prob going to be boring as they'll have to go to Land College, no seaside setting no angst or drama. I want to see them in high school. Drama and angst are in high school.

Anime does the "girls squeeze each others breasts" thing so often, and with girls who otherwise don't seem to be lesbian, that I was honestly starting to wonder if there was some real world truth behind this.
So it's good to hear from two female anime viewers (and NoemiChan's mom) that it is in fact just a silly anime trope. Typically, I'm not fond of the trope myself (because at an intuitive level, I thought it was silly), but it was so fast here that I didn't care much.

The other possibility is this could go the HanaIro route and we'd get episodes devoted to Miuna and omurice. And drama clubs. But in my experience theater chicks are indistinguishable from Haruhi Suzumiya. |
