This was the most Summer based episode so far.

School, uniforms, and the Summer vibes. We even got a segment with the class cleaning up the pool! Good to see Nene enjoying time as well. By standards, I guess this was the most "normal" episode in this season lol

Hananene stans can we go for top of anitrendz charts for 3 straight weeks? One of the most disturbing Hanako-kun episodes actually. Despite the wholesome exterior and picture perfect(pun intended) world, you could feel something was very off. Thought they’d ease us into Shijima’s ability, but throwing us right in made today quite a shock.

Even though it’s a dream world/painting they’re in, I’ll take any Hananene crumbs I can get. Hanako asking Nene out on a date to the movie was so cute. Please let me see that play out 😭

Holy shit Aoi and Akane falling apart like pieces of paper was disturbing. Everyone just playing it off like it was nothing felt like a twilight zone episode! So Mitsuba does indeed know it’s all a made up world, I honestly don’t blame him if he’s working together with Shijima. After he got bullied so bad last episode and threatened, it’s only common sense he’d want a place to belong.

Very excited to see how this arc plays out especially with the stipulation that once you get in her drawings you can’t get out!

And so, we've set onto Picture Perfect arc.

What a great first episode. I can't wait for the entire arc to be adapted. Both Amane and Sousuke are alive in Shijima's picture world... Aw man, what we could've had if it was real.

Is it just me or has the animation of this chapter been superior to the previous ones?

Admittedly this anime has many distorted reality I become numbed by it.

With that said, I enjoy Kou's relationship with Mitsuba, it's almost as if they're couple.

And I love the hint that Hanako (here as Amane) love space. It's one of the popular childhood's dream to go to space. I wish Hanako can fulfil his dream.

Si Hanako. Hmm bukan. Si Amane, di episode 6 terlihat sangat dekat dengan Yashiro. Mereka terlihat sangat dekat. Sayang-nya itu semua hanya bagian dari keajaiban ke 4

Oh man, what a perfect world they’ve found themselves in, of course we as viewers knew right away that this was some kind of fabrication but poor Nene and Kou had to make sure they weren’t crazy and that the world hasn’t always been this way, but at the same time there sure were some funny and wholesome bits with this world’s versions of Hanako/Amane and Mitsuba, it does make you wish things could stay this way for them but of course that can’t happen. I also liked that the tower in the background could be seen before it was pointed out, I saw it through the window and I thought “that’s new isn’t it?” and sure enough it was.

But near the end we found out that this world isn’t so perfect, it would be tough to leave it if it wasn’t for the fact that people can just become torn into pieces at random lol, that was a horrific scene, and then for everyone to act like it was normal afterward made it even more messed up, yeah this world’s gotta go lol. And this is all apparently the work of the fourth wonder Shijima who we saw a few times this episode, pretty upsetting backstory she has too, but I do absolutely love her design, it’ll be interesting to see how Nene and Kou confront her eventually, and if Tsukasa comes into play because he’s alive too based on what Aoi said. And lastly, I loved hearing Sakura over the radio again for the first time this season, I really missed that, it used to happen every other week in Season 1 lol.

I just knew this all had something to do with that girl we saw at the end of last episode. The fifth school wonder whom Tsukasa showed to Mitsuba. Her drawings having the power to make any moment you want into the perfect vision you have of said moment. Mitsuba must've asked her to create this drawing world where him and Hanako are humans and have been all along like everything is normal. Nene being very surprised to find Amane, aka, Hanako, her very human classmate seated behind her. With how frazzled Nene started her morning being almost late I can understand her needing a bit to piece everything together. She was incredibly confused by finding Hanako as a human and everyone acting like he's always been there. He acted at first like he didnt know what Nene was talking about but when Mitsuba was confronting Nene and Kou we see Hanako look over. Given how powerful of a ghost that Hanako is there's no way he isnt aware of what's going on. Nene and Kou reaction to Aoi and Akane being cut up was very valid, its not like they're gonna die for real but it was still shocking. Nene and Kou need to stop this art room school spirit from keeping them trapped in this make believe permanently!

Wow, them being trapped in that girl's drawings is wild. I figured that out pretty fast. But how to escape?

What a happy place and time to be for Yashiro and Han... I mean Amane, a 100% fake but happy place nonetheless but no, they will get out of there, how? That is the question.

Tower at the start gave it away instantly something is amiss. Still, it should be interesting how they get out of it.

The most normal looking episode so far but also one of the most disturbing episodes

Hanako knows for sure what's happening but wants to enjoy being human around Nene
Lovely Hananene moments as Nene admitted that she likes Amane/Hanako and him actually asking for a date ❤️

This ep is all about a bittersweet dream world !

Wow okay so it seems like this world is a distorted reality created by the artist's spirit and in this world Mitsuba and Hanako are alive, people can also break like objects and it doesn't matter to other people, such a weird world, now they have to deal with the spirit to get out from this world...

I like how the art quality changed in this Episode. Beauty to my eyes, I wish it could keep that way. The lore still sticks to it as usual. Still, that cutting paper blade needs to banned in all schools around the world cuz this is a red flag. Good episode as always

Nice setup for this current arc. I kinda like the fact of Nene and others being trapped in a sort of alternate reality instead of a mere dream or illusion.

So, yeah... Hanako 100% knows.

"genjutsu" was strong for Yashiro and Kou regarding Hanako and Mitsuba. The world is an illusion created by this Shijima, but for what purpose is she doing this? Could she be working for Tsukasa? After all, at the end of the previous chapter, he had something in mind.
