Lul, Kirie should be more careful with her untied shoes.

The episode seems like fun with the girls taking a trip to the amusement park. I also kinda like the character chemistry between Kirie and Umaru while they were riding that ferris wheel.

Hikari Kongou also makes an appearance this episode. Adorable girl imo.

I'm extremely satisfied with the amount of character development we get in this season for every character.

It's also done really well, makes me feel for these people.

Kirie crying to herself why she's a person like this was hard to watch. She's gonna get some well needed self-confidence by being with Umaru.

Also i sense some possible shipping with Kirie and Alex which was as a surprise this episode. Really subtle (the horoscope might have been really talking about those two) and slowly going there. She went red and was in awe when Alex told how he managed to grow out of his past lifestyle.

Now we also know why Alex is spying in Umaru's house, it's Kanau getting every bit of information on Taihei xD

Was this Ebina coming to a realization that she is so attached to Taihei cause he's the big brother for her that she didn't have during her past years? I'm hoping to see them reunite.

Kirie and Ebina getting more and more loveable by the second, the focus on the side cast this season is being so good.

New girl gets introduced! Not much so far, but I want to see more of her soon.

Really fun episode again a pretty good one in terms of deelopment for the cast members too,like some users already mentioned,this is making this season so much better than the first one,guess that's also a sign that this show will end after the cour is over.

That new girl Hikari looks so cute,totall digging her character design and I'm super curious to learn more about her backround.

An episode full of emotions, I loved this one too. BUT, we got only a few of chibi Umaru's moments.

I hope Ebina will meet her big brother soon!

And we got a new character, Hikari, who is she? Looking foward to know her better.

New girl Hikari seems close to Taihei, based on the small flashback scene.

Umaru is so nice this season. And little Ebina was adorable.

What a great experience to have an amazing moments in amusement park. The girls were so happy to try the various rides they're hoping to mount. Our Kirie got in troubled but Umaru saved her, she mustn't feel shy to Umaru. I was surprised they finally revealed the new imouto girl, her name is Hikari. I wonder what will be her role to the life of Umaru. They show the moments of Taihei and Ebina-chan at the end of the episode. Nice!

I really feel about what happen to Kirie in the first part and her thought. Especially at that Ferris Wheel, where she "confess" about how Umaru really think about her. I;m feeling so damn realistic. >_<

Hm, this episode really didn't do it for me unfortunately :( The amusement park bit was all right, I hope that Kirie gets over her insecurities soon. So does Ebina like Taihei because he's like her brother?! Oh boy LOL ;P Seems like Alex knows Kanau and Hikari too, hmm ... the latter will be introduced more next episode it seems like. Plus Taihei taught her about the stars too?! This is interesting :O

Another good episode!
LOL Kirie always daydreaming of being alone with Umaru in her own happiness!
LOL Kirie always get pressed by the right boob of Ebina!
Kirie freaked-out just because of her hair? damn, she's really quite an unstable girl!
Oh! another new character! white haired loli who is also intelligent at Umaru's school.
Who would have thought Umaru is highly intelligent when it comes to Academic Performance!
So Alex's saviour is Kanau!?
Ebina so adorable again even if she's bedridden (about her loli past). Based on the VA, her Onii-chan is really the chef from the previous episode!
5/5.

Also, Kanau was the one who told Alex to move to Japan, I was not expecting it.

People are pretty much guaranteed to pick partners that are like their family members(usually a parent) or the exact opposite, depending on how much they like their family. And with how close Nana was to her brother, her wanting to do the horizontal mambo with Taihei is hardly surprising.

Ebina as a child is so much win!!! >.<
Didn't expect that Alex had a relationship with Kanau tho :o I'm afraid that there'll be a love triangle if Alex sees Kanau as more than his life changer (?)

Another great episode! Can't believe how great this season is.
I'm really glad that Kirie is starting to socialize more. The moment inside the cabin when they were alone was the best, one of the best moments of this episode or even the whole season.
It was so cute and plus that transformation of Umaru, so damn great! Really happy that they are all friends now.
Watching Sylphi being happy for Umaru's grades was really nice, Umaru was really happy.
Can't believe how good this season is! Now the only thing left is Ebina finding her brother.
Can't believe that i thought that Ebina had feelings for Taihei xD

Really a great episode. Finally comes the character unveiled some time ago on Twitter, it was time, even if you did not feel the need given the excellent work done so far by the narrative, which has never left anything to chance, always keeping a lively and constructive pace.

I agree! At the beginning of the series, I did not think it could be so good in terms of the growth of the characters and not only.

Another lovely episode for them to spend time in the amusement park. Glad that Kirie got her luck in her horoscope. Interesting, she's Pisces.

Congrats to Umaru for getting the highest GPA!

Also, it was nice to see the childhood background of Alex.



New character has appeared as well. Hikari Kongou. I wonder what she has in stored. Can't wait to see her more in the next episodes.

Quite sad to see Ebina's brother leave her while she was young. I hope they both meet each other soon.

First half was great, although I'm a bit disappointed that Umaru didn't actually reveal herself to Kirie :(

Second half... not so great, since I don't like Alex and Ebina :/

I hope this new girl isn't going to be what I think she will be... A sort of imouto rival for Umaru? Taihei seems to know her, so she will probably turn out to be fond of him or something, then all hell will break loose :(

I don't understand what is going on with Ebina's brother. He left home to get a job when she was little, never even said goodbye to her, and hasn't been back to see her even once in ten years? Not even a phone call? That's horrible, I can't even comprehend doing something like that.

Kirie kinda projecting since she probably sees Sylphin as her rival. Well, in the 1st season at least.

Alex's saviour is Kanau? Honestly, I was kinda expecting it's going to be a Japanese friend of his in a past episode that encouraged him to engage in Japanese culture or something. But honestly, nice to see that some characters are interconnected somehow.

I feel like the Ebina bro. should have been depicted with his shrimp hair-tie/clip. I get that he's a minor character but I think he should have at least had something more unique in his appearance. Thinking about it, maybe the tied hair looks similar to Taihei's hair spike so the makers of this anime decided against it?

A lot of lore of many characters, what a good episode.
Kirie really wanted that moment with Umaru and her height is 140, she is so short. Was good see Umaru cheering Kirie, thats what she needed, she also proyected herself again.
Alex was a loser but thanks to Kanau he changed, but what is Kanau for him? The daughter of some of his parents friends? They are not siblings and Hikari is Kanau's sister, will she become a recurrent character? And that is the reason why Ebina loves Taihei so much. Kirie was so great in this episode.
