| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- The 3 of them are eating together and discuss about fishing. It's time to buy their own good fishing goods (with that Indian guy explaining through monologue at the side). And that fishing thing is expensive. So they decided to work for that owner for the summer to get money by fishing. As well as that Indian guy. They are laughing at his nervous face (not being afraid). So the guy wasn't trying to runaway now. After one failure, he succeeded. After that, they got the money. Airing 10 mins. late next time. |

| Yuki is getting confident about himself and doesnt freak out as easily now. I hope he catches a big one. He is working really hard for that fishing gear he wants. |
| great ep., im looking forward for the Indian guy to become their friend~ |

| very good episode, Yuki is getting more confidence :D |
 |
| I am so super pleased by the character development that's happening lately. <3 You go, Yuki. & I really hope Akira joins their "crew" properly soon, him saying he doesn't need friends to Tapioca broke my heart. |
| I blinked and then Natsuki was adorable instead of stuffy. Woo character development. |
 |
| it was nice story progresses and characters develop - always nice to see it as Yuki was a bit irritating but it's better now yet will they keep up with it - and won't go into direction of sick grandmother who dies, crisis and such (I hope they won't do it) some creative ending would be most welcome here :) |
| I LOVED it. Yuki was so adorable at the end of this episode. I can't get enough of this anime! |
 |
Plot is developing nicely. I enjoy Yuki's progress very much. Looking forward to next episode. |
|
| Everybody has pretty much said it already, but the character development of Yuki is really great. |
| Ara ara. |
| I am so saying enoshima bowl the next time I go fished :P |
| Hmm...a better improvement there for red head. The indian guy...wonder when he will have his heart melt? |
 |
| I can't help but hate Yuki. He's just so..blah. Idk how to describe it, but I don't like his character. I like everyone elses just fine especially Akira Agarkar Yamada, hes my favorite out of the four w/ the duck. However, it looks like he changes throughout half the episode, seems to be getting used to everything now. |

| Character development!! :D Good job to Yuki! Natsuki is not a prick anymore. He's gotten really nice. Akira needs to join them already, dammit. |
| I did enjoy this episode but I thought it was weaker than the previous ones, I don't see much worth mentioning. Yeah, Yuki made some progress but that wasn't somehow enough for me. Yamada is cool, hope he joins them soon. I hate Koko, I wish she wasn't there and boy do I hate Yuki's troll face, it really started to piss me off, it just isn't funny anymore. |
| And there is the new Yuki, Let's see how it goes in the next episode. |
 |
| Like always i just love every episode. Tapioca always seems to get into fights withthat cat. What a gangster duck! hahaha 100.000 yen for all the fish gear wow. When yuki makes this face it always cracks me up. Ayumi is also hilarious when he run after Misaki gives him a compliment lol. Here they go to become Men of the Sea XD. Yuki is soo funny crawling on the deck haha poor guy. I give Haru a 10 also. Haru is always adorable look at the face. How cute is Yuki with that stone fish face XD It was a OH SNAP moment when Natsuki told Akira Agarkar Yamada for saying that yuki wouldnt show up. Natsuki :"You dont have any friends, do you? Yamada: " :o " Yeah thats what i thought hahhaa. Well atleast he has Tapioca. ENOSHIMA BOWL!!!! Getting into some real action with that. Plus, i was soo happy yuki finally got a mahi-mahi. His becoming more confident *Good job Yuki* Now Yuki has money now and a lot of great memories! And like always i am felt with a big smile :D |

Zhou said: I hate Koko, I wish she wasn't there I'm really disliking what we've seen of Koko as of yet, too, tbh. I wouldn't go as far as to say hate, but I'm really not fond of her. :\ |
| D'awww. What a nice episode. Yuki changing for the better was adorable~ Also, Tapioca is too cute :3 |
| As someone whose general feelings about this show so far have been perfectly summed up by the word "meh", I came into this episode expecting it to be okay. As it turns out, I fucking loved it! First ep of this show that I've given a 5. Maybe it just took 5 episodes for me to get attached to the characters and get immersed in the story, but either way, this episode was so good. I loved how Natsuki, Haru, and Yuki are finally like a real group of friends and are all working together, and I loved seeing Yuki go through his struggles and come back with the net he fixed, right after his friends said that they knew he would make it. Left me with a big smile on my face. This show is really picking up for me. |

| First of all, trying to do that dance durning the OP is unbelieveably fun. Second of all, great episode! I love the character development for Yuki here. He's actually growing a pair. I never thought I'd see it. I LOVED Ayumi in this ep and how he was so cool about everything. WHY haven't I had a boss like that!? After the net breaking and they got home I was thinking to myself, "Oh crap, not another episode where the idiot pouts for a day." But no! He came to the job and had fixed the net. Horray for growing up a little! I'm looking forward to Akira actually getting a personality hopefully soon. |
  |
| I have a feeling the next episodes is gonna be one of the typical plots of this genre. I hope it's at least conveyed well like the previous episodes and also entertaining, but it may be something unique like the previous episodes. I'll just have to wait and see what happens. |
 |
| their friendship grows even stronger this episode :] cant wait for akira to join them already poor yuki, 100000 yen for the fishing gear he wants. i hope he ends up getting it |

meelo said: first day on the job & they got a freakin paycheque already. WHY DO I NOT LIVE IN JAPAN???? WHY???? Yeah, but there is probably not much money in there cause Dad had one day jobs before and only got payed like $50~$200. I would be puking on the side of the boat the entire time instead of fishing or netting fish xD. |
"What has two arms, two legs, and is alive? Not your favorite character lol! xD" |
| Great ep. Good for Yuki. Nice to see him have confidence for a change. |
 |
| ^_^ Silly thing I caught on to with the names: -Haru means Spring -Natsuki pertains to Natsu, which means Summer -Akira pertains to Aki, which means Autumn -Yuki means Snow, which adds up to Winter ..I feel kinda slow that I just realized that. XD |
| "Aiming for the mark takes precision, balance, and patience." ....Screw that, let's shoot the damn thing! |
 Excellent episode, just as good as the previous ones, Yuki has a perfect VA that sounded just as happy as he looked. Couldnt helpt but feel so connected to him and happy by the end there that there were tears when he was so inspired from Natsuki that he ended up standing and then catching the Mahi Mahi, shouting to the people cast away even, and earning the paycheck. Natsuki is really having a profound effect on him, much more so than Haru fortunately. The writer of the show has developed him well. Natsuki too. Akira Agarkar must be getting time next I think seems to have a deficiency in friends based on that friendly banter from Natsuki and him, so hopefully that does transpire. Didnt think crocs were made for fishing. |

| WOW, Yuki I really like him in this ep. Glad they were able to fish together and get closer to each other. I suspect Akira will join the gang 1 or 2 more ep |
| I'm so happy for you Yuki!^^ |
 Tapioca FTW!! |
| great episode happy for Yuki! |
| Such a great episode! I LOVE how much each character has grown :) lolz at Haru's "KY" shirt... lol wtf |
  |
| EXCELLENT EPISODE. Made me feel all warm and fuzzy on the inside by the end of the episode. ;) The characters are actually developing already! I expected Yuki to hide in bed all day again but wow, was I wrong :D. Probably favourite episode yet. 5/5 |

| Nice progressing yuki, ahhh want to see the indian man join with them. |
| Guess I wasn't much in the mood for the happy feelings this episode, too distracted by the small subtleties that caught my attention; the mention of the Bermuda triangle, a nod to the Dragon's triangle that has been a motive in another Nakamura Kenji work; Mononoke. And Ayumi's quick mention of Benzaiten (Benten). Next episode seems to give more focus to the Enoshima legend, this will be interesting. |
| It's always difficult for a timid person to overcome shyness and feelings of embarassment. Therefore, all the more props for Yuki for being able to accomplish that. |
 |
greenmush said: I love the part where Yuki was runnround the boat before he caught the fish . That was pretty funny and interesting , im glad Yuki is finally becoming more independent and brave good job yuki :D And Haru was running with him too XD with no reason at all. Yuki looks cooler now that he changed. Though he still makes that nervous (funny) face. |
  |
| Beautiful episode :) And wow, I feel stupid. I always thought mahi-mahi was dolphin -___- At least I learned now :P 4/5 - Wished we could have seen more of the tension with Natsuki and his family. |
| kyyyyYYAAAA!!!!!! it's him it's him it's himmm~~~!!! Ahhh, I love this show, and now I have even more reason to love it!!! Sugita Tomkazu-sannn!!!!!!!!! What a lovely episode~ :') This show always makes me smile ~~(*3*)~~ |
A pinky-promise ain't something you take lightly -- Sakata Gintoki GINTAMA... I'LL BE WAITING FOR YOUR LEVELED-UP RETURN!!!! I'M WAITING FOR YOU... KINTAMA!!!!!?!! For the rest of you waiting with me... GO READ GINTAMA NOW!! (start at 372 where the anime left off) And everyone else, GO WATCH GINTAMA!! IT WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE!!!! |
| Loved this episode. Makes me amazed considering how I found the beginning mediocre. :D |
I have my own anime blog. It's called Anime Viking. Hope you'll you read it! |

 |
| Yuki finally gets more confident :) I can't wait to see Akira becoming their freind. And as always Tapioca was awesome ;) |
