That telescope Ginko had was nuts. It'd be cool to go bargain-hunting with it.

Wasn't this just a repeat of the other Ginko episode? -_-

I don't understand why Kinko works ~so damn hard~.

Isn't she just part of the student council? Why are they making it sound like she's running the entire country, what the hell?

The Yamada sister's situation is in a whole other magnitude of scale in comparison so I don't know why they are trying to make me feel sorry for Ginko/Kinko.
Oh you're folding clothes instead of having your maid do it, what hardship!

I don't dislike the show but these two characters are definitely the lowest point of the series for me so far.

@stand obviously she does it to make sure the maid doesn't poison her clothes. :/

Seriously though I don't get the comparison either. The image they had of her standing in the middle of a group of faggots in suits makes me think there's more to it and they just cbf to explain to us yet. Maybe she actually helps out in the family business or something. Maybe student council members are simply twice as tall as her and wear suits to school. ¯\(◉◡◔)/¯

Ginko is cute and her wanting to impress her sister is really cute. But the setup and how she tries to do it is so absurd.

Nice focus shift in this episode to be honest. Nice to see Ginko again as well to be honest.

This is the most interesting eps so far. There's a valuable lesson in this eps.

In Indonesia (my country), in Javanese culture, there's a famous proverb named "sawang sinawang".

I don't know how to describe it in english, but if u know, the concept is similar enough to "neighbor's grass are greener".

Ginko and her fam are rich in their neighborhood, rich in terms of money and all that stuff. But Yamada sisters are actually "rich" too, they have bunch of kindness, they have many people that care about them, and they're "rich" in terms of relationship (which Ginko's family are lack of. Each of them are super busy w/ their own businesses).

Both of them have their own - and +. And it's better to not comparing each other too much. Be grateful for what you have in life. This is what "sawang sinawang" about.

This is just my takeaway from this eps, I'm happy if u also found this meaningful.

I can't get over the little rich girl's name being "Ginko." They literally just named her "bank." That is so funny to me.

Anyway, cute episode.
