Looks like the competition is trying to bribe the main and Hotaru isn't anywhere near the place.
Well so for things are working without Hotaru but i miss her.

Damn, that 7-eleven really has it all, speacially the manager. Just when I heard Sugita Tomokazu's voice I was already sold.

The manager of the convenience store is quite funny. That store has everything you want. Kokonotsu has some serious competition.

The manager has exactly the same crazy eyes as Hotaru and even the hair color is blue, either Hotaru has a brother or she went through a trans

Thanks to Hotaru's lessons about dagashi, when they were showing the goods at the convenience store, like Kokonatsu, I spotted the price differences. Honestly, I don't think the two places are competing (at least not directly) because they cater to different clientele. Specifically, the dagashi shop has treats and toys that kids can afford.

I was amazed at the two magazines (Beniyutaka bargain chips) both magazines had in the cover girls with the same body type as Hotaru & Saya ^_^

From the way Beni talked about his store, with first class pastries and magazines and bento and stuffs, realistically that shop will close down in less than half a year. It'll get crushed by its own weight without any competition. The town is scarce in population and nobody really buys anything there. XD

Such a treat to have Sugita voicing Beni, though. I thought it was Koyasu Takehito at first.

I kept hearing Gintoki because Sugita Tomokazu XD

He's already my fav character from this season so far. And we get to see that other megane shoujo in the next episode which will finally fill out the cast. Too bad Hotaru doesn't seem like she'll be there since the preview didn't show her...

So this Beni, this "boy-version" Hotaru also realize that Kokonotsu have something inside him that makes him worthy and the Dagashi shop too. Plus there's no Hotaru around which makes it hard to decline the deal from Beni.

These silly people, sneaking around like that...

Dear god, Sugita is perfect for this role! :D

Dirty magazines! Worth mentioning twice, at least in Tou-kun's opinion.

Kokonotsu seems to have better business sense when it comes to sweets. Not sure it's a good idea to offer advice to your competition, though...

Dad has his priorities straight as well, clearly... :D

As has Manager-san...

Not only is that one girl not opening up, she's clearly already sneaking away there... But looks like we'll still luckily see her around, in a much better place.

That manager is basically Hotaru as a male. He was fucking hilarious.
The bespectacled girl also appeared. At first sight, she seems to be the clumsy type.

That guy has to be related to Hotaru. Same crazy eyes, same intensity. Maybe the siblings have a battle going on of some sorts?

Hotaru is hawter than any girl on some ecchi magazine. Kokonotsu will stay true to his goddess.

You might be onto something and now the MAL character page pretty much spoils it xD. Not that we wouldn't have been able to make the connection though (and the opening also hinted at it). Someone will be fired (or not xd) because this wasn't even revealed in the manga yet. Actually, the manga is only a chapter ahead of season 2 atm.

Another hilarious episode!
Looks like Hotaru will still be long gone huh!
Sugita Tomokazu voiced the Store Manager!
LOL at Beni Yutana...so many insults blurted out of his mouth against the Dagashi Shop of Kokonotsu!
oh yeah! konbini is a good source of EROHON!!!
Tou-san mentioned EROHON twice! hahah!
LOL Beni attempted to bribe Kokonotsu with EROHON!
The other woman on the OP visuals has made an appearance and will be introduced next episode! nice!
5/5.

This was a really funny one this week. This Beni guy is pretty hilarious, possibly Hotaru's brother or cousin?

Loved that he bribed him with dirty magazines, he was playing hardball.

Japanese convenience stores really do have it all. Most American convenience stores, or as we simply call them, gas stations, feel crappy in comparison.

Looks like thinking of Hotaru strengthened Coconuts' resolve. I wish she was back.

New girl finally gets an appearance, I thought she'd never show up.

I have to say, this was a particularly good episode even without Hotaru. That Beni guy's humor made the episode really enjoyable. Glad they finally added in some competition for the Dagashi shop, was hoping for something like this to pop-up at some point.
They finally showed the girl from the main cover for the first time too. Been wondering who she was for the longest time.

Feels like best ep so far.
Dude has Hotaru vibe all over, maybe her dad/uncle.
One magazine looks like Hotaru.

Nice way to raise the stakes halfway through the season. And the introduction of a couple new characters was cool as well.

Nice Jojo references Mr Manager. You seem alright, I'd work for you.

Hmm, who does that guy remind me of? :P I know it's obvious because of the character page, but it was fairly obvious beforehand. Same crazy eyes, same over the top manners, trying to recruit Kokonotsu (with porn this time...)

Finally the new girl makes an apperance. She's cute.

You don't realise just how much in the boonies these guys live are, until they react like this to an automatic door. The setting of this arc actually brings me back to Persona 4 and Junes.

Also, Kokonotsu wants to grab something with his own two hands.
