Maybe you know this already, but just in case.
When it was revealed that a monkey stole the crops, a student said with releif, "Thanks goodness. The unhappy child doen't exist." That may be a reference to a classic short story: Someone hears of a sad story about a child and is asked for some money. He feels pity and gives money to save the child. But his friend tells him that the story was a fraud. And then, he happily says, "Good. The sufferd child doen't exist."

I'm sure this is from Monster Hunter.. not sure which though.. that looks like a Tigrex only this one is black and the watermelon was referenced as the egg because one of the quests is to steal the egg of a monster or something.

Dark Matter!!... damn


monster hunter freedom 2,yeah i can always spot MH references lol better episode when they don't rely on ecchi and pervy jokes


I totally had to look up this one, cause i got this exact image as wallpaper though i had no clue what it is from. XD

Agriculture propaganda is strong in this one...

Oh well, good episode nonetheless, oppai-chan mumbling is always awesome.


Also dat Saint Seya reference... pretty cool, surprises me not many people got that... I guess Saint Seya is not that famous outside Brazil

I was actually wondering if Ringo slapped Minori for tickling her. She didn't, but it was still funny.

i like how there are STILL people coming onto these forums just to talk about how they are dropping their pirated/free anime that they invested nothing into. The only reason they don't stick to facebook is because facebook is public and they can't show that crappy side of their personality to their friends and family.

Those references!

DARK MATTER. LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL. Kei is so epic. That's some sexual harassment he did.

The balance of everything in this series is really good. Got a fair amount of comedy, drama, romance, fanservice etc. I really liked what they did at the end.

Looking forward to the next episode.

Yeah I really thought that would be the reference most people would get... Its either a case of Saint Seiya not being so famous outside Brazil, like I said, or the majority of MAL users being too young... after all the orginal Saint Seiya is quite old if you think about it.
It saddens me a little to see that a lot of anime viewers have not watched this amazing anime.. pretty much a precursor for the shounen genre

Now THAT's more like it... Why wasn't the first part of the series like this?

Folklore references, anime references, even a reference to A Dog of Flanders, along with various other enjoyably comedic moments... as well as a few emotional tweaks along the way as well.
And a genuine and interesting story behind it, that brings out the best of all of the great characters in this series.

4/5

In the plot at the end as well as a lot of craziness, a little space for serious things and there's less stupid!
Accessible narrative, with a decrease in the central part and then recover to the big finish. I liked the comparison used to describe the situation of Ringo!
Let's see if the series really starts to get going.
Drawings and animations good enough.
Pretty funny episode! XD

And also, poor monkey. Even I get emotional when animals dies/hurt in anime.

Outside of that, when I was little, I didn't know how to smile, even in picture day. I tried my best to smile but I had no idea how... lol I was so dumb. Good episode though. It made me laugh a lot. And Minori wants the D.

Amazing episode.
I love the story about the dead soil. It was really full of lessons.
Also, Ringo's smile is also pretty cute.

Woah, hum, okay. I didn't expected the show to get emotionnal... xD

Anyway, it was a good episode.

That Phoenix Wright pose Oppai was pulling out was funny. Also, Kei Jimi Hendrix brush was just too much :P

Minori building her own love hotel xD
Ahhh, poor her, she have literally no chance. Whoever are shipping her are shipping on the Titanic.

That Nyarko poster!

"You're really asking for a 'nice boat' end." Wow, didn't expect that reference. LOL! Freaking School Days.

Ahh! She smiled! Even if it was just for a moment! So apparentl she lost some emotion for some reason. I wonder if that's why she quit being an idol.
