I like your reading of Azusa in this episode. I think the episode wasn't paced too well, and so it kind of prevented me from really feeling her struggle, which is too bad.


I was just as out of the loop as you were, and had to go back after the episode ended to find out what Sumika forgot. The sign language bit, as funny as was, distracted me from the thing that Azusa was saying.

So some known by Azusa girls refused to make some journal in the past?.. Well, not known, what it's about, really - was it hobby, or some project, or something.. So will hope for more info..
Well, I enjoy Azusa as a character a lot, really.. She has all kinds of dreams.. I like that her imagination world is vast like this.. Must be nice feelings to dream about stuff here and there like this.. And be dedicated, inspired by your hobby so much.. It's admirable, really..
Also it's interesting, if she'll succeed in trying to write.. Even if won't, I still like when people try writing something.. I did that myself after all.. More in the past.. Very rarely now, now I'm more consuming, really.. Which is also nice.. ;p
Well, people not sharing your hobby to extents you like - is also relatable, really.. Yeah, people I know like anime.. But like different genres.. Or watch it not so often.. So it's a bit disappointing that I'm doing some of these watches just by myself.. There are other ways, though, I guess.. Like there are rewatches.. But again as Azusa would like someone doing the way she likes.. I'd also more would appreciate watching series in my pace, not necessary in episode per day.. Even if I know that it leads nowhere.. And even if I tried the other way, by some rules.. In the end I'm still more or less am alone with watching my anime, I guess.. Oh well..
In the end, I guess, I don't take it as sadly as Azusa took.. Not that there is anything wrong in either way, really.. Just that a bit of uniqueness.. For Azusa it's much more important.. To have a soul mate.. And it's quite a lot, isn't it?.. Just that I am personally content with what I have.. And try, initiate conversations about anime, and stuff, but in the end still being alone majorly, it feels.. Still it's norm for me.. I just think that's how hobbies work.. Soul mates are almost impossible, I personally feel..
Well, I very enjoyed this episode as well.. I like Azusa's character.. Enjoying your hobby on a deeper level is very interesting and very relatable topic to me personally.. So I quite enjoyed all the feelings Azusa had.. Both happy ones, and sad ones.. In the end, it seems, she still maintained a good friendship with Sumika.. Where she'll be able to express dear to her feelings and thoughts that her hobby gives to her.. Glad for her, I think.. And again - nice episode.. Important..

Very powerful and emotional episode. Poor Aoi. That scene where she started to cry was so depressing. Fortunately, the ending was much more happy. ^^

Aoi's imagination. <3

The insert song was pretty good.
The problem with this series is that, the characters are not realistic, nor deep, nor unique enough to keep the fuel burning.
The comedic, sol moments are fine, if not memorable, and occurs the most screentime (at least startimg from episode 3). Some of the gimmicks, dialogues, and events are also way too lame and predictable.
But aside from these, this anime was fun to watch, and definitely had some good moments.

It hurt to see Aoi cry like that. I'm glad that Sumi went to see her.

So, how is Sumi going to that event and the beach at the same time?

Poor Aoi, I felt bad for her, Sumi completely forgot about her. They should invite Aoi to the beach with them, so what is Sumi going to do, go to the fest or to the beach?
Kazama and Sumi communicating with signs was very funny.
