| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Haha it was pretty funny when Mao told Miki she must be out of shape and then finds that she can't even move the bike an inch herself. I wonder what exactly is the deal with riding a bike with someone in tandem? Is it really against some law in Japan? This isn't the first time I've seen something like this in an anime. |
 ...even a saint needs a soldier to do the dirty work. |
| Another great episode, I have to say I haven't enjoyed a slice of life show like this since Aria and it also helps that the OST is pretty awesome. tainteddonut said: I wonder what exactly is the deal with riding a bike with someone in tandem?

| The way the author placed the girls in second to contrast the picture that won 1st was very clever. I actually teared up during that part of the episode. This is such a cute series; I'm really loving it so far! |

| why didn't they just take the photo from the side? or with a zoom from further away? or use the wind to speed themselves up? assuming they're good enough to do that last one that is. I think I'd be a bit mad if I lost to a picture of myself, especially if it was taken, entered and displayed without my knowledge or permission. |

| A more slice-of-life-type episode this time around. tainteddonut said: I wonder what exactly is the deal with riding a bike with someone in tandem? Is it really against some law in Japan? This isn't the first time I've seen something like this in an anime. Also, isn't baseball a popular sport in Japan? I found it interesting that the school's baseball club is having trouble finding members. But it was also mentioned that the population of the whole school is decreasing, so it's probably a reference to Japan's declining population. It seems that the old lady, a fellow photographer, is the only person who knows how hard the girls worked to get that photo. Success is more easily recognized among people who share the same interest. |
 |
| The framing of the old lady's photo was excellent. She deserved the first place :p |

| Whoever's donig the art on this loves their hips and thighs, especially Atsuko Girl is extra thicc That photographer lady stole their prize by shooting them without their knowledge, as far as I'm concerned. I thought she was going to give them the prize money, but no, it's just copies of the photo. Class act, lady. |
| I literally almost fell asleep watching this episode. This anime is so boring. I've seen worse, but I'm struggling to find anything entertaining about it. I'll try one more episode. |
 |
| I thought this episode was really silly. If you take a picture of someone running, don't expect them to look beautiful. If they go by too fast, advise them to slow down slightly instead of speeding up on the bike. |
 |
| Very good episode for sure, I liked how it refers back to the photography class, I was about to forget the entire existence of that lmao. Anyway, I liked the picture scene too. That was well made and even though the images were off at times a little, they got there in the end. The lady who took the pic at the end is real sneaky too lol, but it did deserve 1st place imo. |
| Ep was pretty meh for me at first since they just suddenly stopped the whole wind festival thing, but the ending clinched it. That 1st place photo was an amazing picture, if it was real I'd frame it on the wall. Shame the old lady stole their thunder with it and reaped the benefits from their hard work, though they really made it harder than it had to be in the first place. I'm guessing the wind theme of this episode is "speed."

SlammyHammy said: Same here, though I think when they showed the photo "enlarged" it showed Atsuko running too, but then the actual photo they hold in their hands and see on the wall seems cut off.. That 1st place photo was an amazing picture, if it was real I'd frame it on the wall. |

Yeah, the old woman cropped the pic for the girls, another dick move on her part by not even giving them the full picture. |
