| It was a really quiet conclusion. Did Binchou's dreams give hints as to how her parents or grandmother died? Or maybe I'm looking into the tree (and whatever harpoon thing that was) too deeply. Glad everyone got to be together for the finale. |

Me too! Awwww! Binchotan is so awesome! Cool everyone got together for the finale, even Aloe randomly got there by luck lol. Bincho was sick she was lucky they came to care for her haha! It was so sad seeing her all alone throughout the series. It's probably Chiku who came first lol, since she comes over a lot. And oh my gawd! When Bincho was about to drink from the Mochi they made for her tears fell out!!! But you made lots of friends so like grandma sad it won't be sad anymore, even if you miss grandma! Kudos to you. What a grand masterpiece. |
| Ending it off with a nice flashback to the good moments she had with all her new friends! Damn I'm really going to miss this series, this was so adorable and heart warming that the quality really took me by surprise! I really enjoyed watching this series, while there's not much of a story the atmosphere and setting makes this anime! The special ED sure makes up for everything but I sure loved the original OP & ED of this series a lot as well! |

| 6.75/10 Never became investing in the characters |

| Foo. My expectation was that her friends would come take care of her, but as it was going through all the flashbacks I'll admit I got a little apprehensive. Crisu said: Binchou displays several magical abilities throughout the show. My interpretation of the spike in the tree is that in her dream she was led to the tree and realized it needed pulled out, which she did. In this case, because of her magical affinity, dream and reality were the same. However, I'm not able to connect her grandmother to the tree yet, and there is that (literally shady) character Ubamega-san seen in the tree at the end. So I'm just going to assume that, as in real life, not everything can be explained and leave it at that.Did Binchou's dreams give hints as to how her parents or grandmother died? Or maybe I'm looking into the tree (and whatever harpoon thing that was) too deeply. |

| A quiet and bittersweet conclusion, the messages to grandma were heartwarming. Aloe's average luck finally pulled through for her at least. Overall this series was alright. I mean, the chibis were ridiculously adorable and just made me smile tons, but once I got past that, it was kind of boring, although it helped kill time when I had nothing to do for ~10 minutes. I just now noticed that Taku Iwasaki was behind the music, explains why it was so beautiful. I couldn't help but feel this series was mildly depressing, given Binchou-tan's circumstances. I'll give this a generous 6/10, it was simple, cute, and exceeded my expectations, often making me think about various ideas from a new angle. |

| Chiku-tan's making mochi. Ren-tan's doing push-ups. Kunugi-tan's eating a lavish meal and Aloe is preparing to eat soba with her mom. Somewhere in the mountains, Binchou-tan is close to freezing to death. My heart broke. "I'm really tired already!" I was like NOOOO! Stay away from Grandma :( Yeah I said that audibly haha. So glad her friends noticed she didn't make it to the shrine and came to nurse her back to health. I've completely fallen in love with this show. Cute, heart-warming but at the same time heart-breaking. When Binchou-tan's onscreen, I can't help but gush over her every. Single. Time. 10/10. Come here! I'll give you blankets, food and you can watch all the TV you want! Oh and I'll tie your ribbon/obi for you T___T |

"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness." "May those who defy their fate be granted glory." |
| That was absolutely adorable and a very heartwarming series! I was always smiling while watching every episode. :') I'm glad Binchou-tan has made plenty of very nice friends, but it still feels really lonely that she's living alone in the forest. If Kunugi-tan invites Binchou-tan to live with her from now on in the mansion, then I don't know if Binchou-tan would accept & agree to that. Her home has sentimental value especially with memories of her Grandma... Binchou-tan reminds me of a younger Rem before she became a maid in the Roswaal mansion. :D I'm gonna miss you Binchou-tan. :'( |
| Pretty sweet show. The characters were absolutely adorable. |

| Pure iyashikei, and unbelievably moe (the biggest eyes I've probably seen on anime characters, the designs are somewhere between chibi and normal), so not for everyone. The gorgeous painted backgrounds and fitting soundtrack is enhanced by the lack of dialogue (comparatively, there's still a bit when other characters are introduced, it's mainly when the MC is by herself). Fantastical elements (Binchou getting a ride on a duck across a pond, or a lift to the nearest town by a bird, etc), it's quite fun. Very wholesome and endearing, with just a hint of melancholy, reminiscent of the atmosphere Shachiku-San sometimes portrayed. Invokes feelings of care and protectiveness, very manipulate, but I'm all for it lol |
| The episode where bincho was eating alone and pretended to welcome herself by saying "okaerinasai" really broke me, also she listening to classes or singing along kids in the park with their teacher. |
