Nice, we're back to more diving this week. I feel that Teko has been improving and the training has helped her a lot.

Pikari's so adorable this episode. I love the way she communicates even when they are driving underwater. Pikari's knowledge about diving is really helpful. The Ninomiya siblings are fun to watch as usual. Teko's teacher has some nice foot massage skills. Really liked the bonding between Pikari and Teko this episode.

Another great day for diving, they had lot's of fun at the camps and it was nice to see Deco learn a few things again.
She is way to insecure so seeing her gain confidence is nice.
The teacher sharing her wisdom was funny.

Teko finished the navigation training, but after that went full drama mode ... fortunately the sensei is here with words of wisdom.

Syn of equipment is always important. Hmm navigation by use of the compass alone huh. Learning to do things yourself though is important. Paying attention to objects that act guild posts underwater can be just as important. Its nice that her determination enabled he to reach the goal. Night diving looks tricky but also fun. Learning to change dreams into reality is what we all aspire to do. Its good that Futaba realises that her good memories are also reality as well. An interesting episode that focused on Futaba overcoming her worries and doubts and develop her first real goal.

Big episode for Teko this week. The girl really doesn't give herself enough credit, she's been moving forward at a steady pace all along. Even if it took multiple tries she's improving. I just know she'll try night diving one day. Maybe during her honeymoon with Pikari! XD But either way next week is being reserved for broom flight apparently! Is this that Flying Witch crossover we've always wanted by any chance? XD

Great episode.

Congratulations to Teko for clearing the navigation test. I like how she remembered what Pikari taught her about finding her way back and used that to complete the test.

Too bad Teko still couldn't muster up the courage to go night diving but I'm sure she'll get there eventually.

Aria-bucho was getting wrecked this episode, those scene were hilarious. XD

Kato-chan sensei with a really nice piece of advice to Teko. The latter always thinks of her strengths as dreams but her weaknesses as reality but it's always important to know that your strengths are real too. :)

The final scene with Teko declaring she'll earn her advances license was great and Pikari's right, Teko's already doing her best to overcome her weaknesses and when she does she always finds a way to have fun. :)

So great to see Teko overcome everything with her determination, now she just has to realize further than she is making it happen herself and not dwell on her insecurity.

I catch myself smiling hard at the end of each episode.

I'm glad that Teko is getting more aware of what she's actually capable off. She's definitely on the right track.

Yay this episode was all about teko. I was a little sad that teko was barely in the last episode so glad this was a teko focused episode. just watching how much teko has improved in this episode shows that she's come a long way, I still remember the episode where teko had a hard time staying underwater for a few minutes now look at her. I hate that I still get thrown off when Teko is with her teacher mainly because they look so much alike.

Pikari is willing to do pretty much anything to make Teko happy and help her become a better person. The two are perfect for each other, and no one can stand in the way of that.

Man, this is absolutely, positively, my favorite sequel of this season. It's endearing, just as relaxing as Amano's other work and also manages to make me chuckle consistently. If only all anime were that enjoyable to watch =w=

President Aria's and other-cat's (was its name Maa? I don't recall x.x) were amazing. I'm much, much more of a dog-person, but the cats in Amanchu! and Aria (well, they're pretty much the same cats, but still :p) are just amazing, lol.

Also, that fking adorably pathetic 'shout' at the end by Teko... I have never heard a more adorable shout, lol.

As always the scenery was really good.
Ah, I wanted to see the cockroach scene animated, seems they cuted somethings, at least they shouldn't have cut Pikari getting in trouble for getting separated from Teko since I think it really is important to remark the importance of being always near your buddie while diving. They also cutted almost all the labyrinth dream chapter, at least they did put Mato-sensei's great speech.

Next chapter more Kokoro (meh) and we will finally will be introduce to the amazing expert of dreams. I wonder up to where this season will adapt.

I loved that episode, and I could really relate to the cycle Teko goes through, and she doesn’t view her successes as reality, but instead fixates and only really thinks of her failures as her reality. The doubt she was going through during her navigation training felt pretty realistic. Normally whenever someone says that they said something profound I don’t tend to think much of it or it negates the profoundness of what they just said, but the sensei’s words to Teko were so damn good. Still that foot massage came out of nowhere and was fucking weird when it began. 10/10 episode since I liked it so much that I had to post a MAL comment about it.

Yup, night diving will be held for Teko for another episode then. For the "future".

This episode had some many quotable quotes I lost count! This is why I love Amano-sensei's works. Her use of words is exceptional. This season could well turn into a gem if they keep this up! Absolutely loving it! <3

This may sound odd, but I like episodes involving navigation. For example, I also liked the parts of Sora Yori that involved navigation. Maybe I should invest in a compass, a locator beacon, and GPS.

It was especially cool when Teko figured out how to return to the others on her own.

The night diving seems really cool, but I'm a bit with Teko. There's some scary shit outside of the circle of light. Ha ha ha

Although this series is focusing all its energies only on the link (I would say that here we are witnessing a kind of love relationship) that there is between Pikari and Teko, the narration has been pleasant to follow. Fun comic parts and interesting diving lessons.

It's good to see Teko with some goals. Your dreams can become reality. Hope Teko gets her advanced license soon.

So it seems the goal of this season is set. I'm still a bit disappointed how empty and naive Futaba's phrases sounds are but it wasn't bad episode.

Flying Witch reference in the PV? Suzuki Eri and Kayano Ai voiced that one too! (although Kayano only voiced the cat there)

Kayanon always does a Kayanon job but in Amanchu I feel Suzuki's consistently doing a more memorable job.

Not a bad episode, but S1 scored numbers of much harder hitting episodes. Most Amanchu episodes hold at least one absolutely stunning scene but this didn't, really

Another lovely episode.

Pikari being with Teko the whole time during the latter's navigation test was so damn sweet and the way both Pikari and Katori-sensei encouraged her when she was feeling down was absolutely heartwarming to see as well. Really hoping Teko gets her advanced license in this season.

So, Amanchu! x Flying Witch crossover next episode?

All the little noises Teko-chan makes really brightens my day, including her "shout" at the end.

I love this, I wish I was a part of it and I don't want it to end.
