Well we get some of Takano's back story in this episode and also in the next. It's really sad what happend to her at young age. Strange how both Satoko and Takano have pretty messed up stories. Really makes me wonder what the creator has agenst blonde lolis...

Edit: Oh Yea! First in baby!

Green hair serves as an additional "standard" hair color. For ex. Midori in Midori No Hibi or in This Ugly Yet Beautiful World, where one of the alien girls who is standing next to her green-haired co-star is rebuked by a teacher for having a "non-natural" hair color

It was very unexpected too. They seem to have changed it to cut out the stuff they replaced. Which was a good move btw...

More Screen Shoots!

very nice change for the OP in both places. (especially the later part, though it is quite a "spoiler" but meh...)
I was expecting a change for the "kakera" part of the OP however, but that's a bit too much ^^"

Episode 14: Bullet Summary and screencaps
edit: screencaps are now up.

A very nice episode, fitting very well the start of matsuribayashi (game).
I really liked how they were able to smoothly do the time transition between the different periods, giving pertinent explanations around takano's origins of her objective, and how she got so many support.
The good thing is that they didn't overdramatize her past at all, and obviously shows it rather a "trigger" than an "excuse".

I really liked how Miyoko's flashback of her life with her parents was done, simply not usual.

Finished watching it.

Loved that the OP changed. I did not expect that. The end surprised me too; The episode continues for a few more minutes after the credits.

This episode felt incredibly powerful. I can't wait for the subs.

The similarities are really striking and I'm wondering why the animators decide to do that... it was a bit "meh".

Good epsiode. The art quality is back up (maybe it's cuz only 13 was kinda bad.) Jumping from young Miyoko to pre-hinamizawa Miyo then back and then back to young Miyoko was kinda weird.

A-part:
I don't remember Matsuribayashi-hen's start too well (I just skimmed though the pre-kakera musubi part), but I don't remember the Orphanage to be that crazy...at least the part with the kid who spilled his food (I do remember about the escape scene and the cruelty they were subject to.)

B-part:
Government offical: Definitely Prime Minister Abe-look-a-like
Young Iri/Tomi: Nice faces
Oko-sama Lunch set flag: I'm suprised they actually kept that, seeing how DEEN has been cutting various minor things out.

C-part:
Another week that ended with Takano laughing

Nice epsiode should pretty much wrap up all the Takano history stuff and move onto kakera-musubi...

Next episode from the preview looks like it will end at the start of the kakera-musubi
