Another one family-relationships episode. Didn't understand why people in the bar were laughing: it seemed to me that Baron and Anna didn't say something fun. Maybe it's just the difficulties of translation, or maybe that was a parody to stand-up comedy. Or maybe I don't have enough sense of humor :)

Nah, I'm pretty sure they were using puns and plays on words and other things that Japanese comedians use... and it can't be conveyed clearly once translated. It's not that we don't have a sense of humour ("we" = I didn't get why they were laughing either, haha).

Anyway, nice little family episode and bit about Anna's past and the comedian father we've been hearing about... Still, I'm looking forward to going back to placing the focus on Sora, which it looks like the next episode will do. :D

And so Anna made her debut as a stand up comedian :p

Very emotional episode, so happy that they could make up a bit after 10 years.

Anna was more funny in that performance than in all the episodes so far together lmao.

The suspension of disbelief was hard to maintain with this episode even for a show like Kaleido Star xD

This is actually my favorite episode so far.
