| Umika is just so precious. <3 Raimon needs to chill a little bit. She's always so angry. Not a big fan of her character tbh. Anyway, I can't wait to see the rocket championship. :3 |

| The Rocket Research Hobby Group gets their first dibs at rocket experiments to determine their rocket for the championship, that the one most suffering is Raimon since the eggs (representing humans) didn't deploy as intended. It's so bad that Raimon has cracked egg after egg, more than enough for Haruno to make chiffon cakes. Of course, Raimon's never-lose spirit spurs her ever forward, but with results like these, her dream will never come to fruition. Compare that to Haruno where the process will determine the outcome, she finds it enjoyable to learn it all. I feel for Emihara-sensei having to give Yu remedial lessons and control her. With the Summer break, Umika's group has to stay on schedule and build their rocket together, though everyone had it hard from Raimon with her harsh words, enough for Umika to break and give into the pressure. Raimon has all the data she needs, though this information is lost in translation where she thinks that everyone is dragging her down. Nevertheless, Umika has also done ber homework and despite her social deficiency, she tries her best ot convince her, which Raimon gives in and accepts their challenge to build the rocket together. Soon, it's the championships, and their rocket, the Ultra High-Power Dream is ready to go. The only adjustments being launch height and airborne time to determine the winner. Rei comes back again only to rile Raimon, though she's still the same confident champion as before. How wlll the Model Rocket Championship go? |

| Matataki is so harsh at times. It always makes me nervous watching certain scenes and interactions. The scene with Matataki and Haruno baking was really good. The anime did such an excellent job of conveying why Matataki wants to win so badly. Matataki's feelings came across differently in the anime than they did in the manga. In a good way, mind you. |
 |
| Umika Is so cute and it is great to see her gain more confidence and belief in herself,I just wish Matataki would chill a bit and stop being aggressive with Umika and the girls |
| Raimon having some emotional outbursts ones again but it seems she understands the feelings of the other girls somewhat even if she is a bit obsessed with everything. Now the question is how will they perform at the event and will Umika be able to perform the speech she has to do. |
| Every time Matataki throws a fit I get this urge to just drop this show... honestly probably the worst character I've seen in a kirara anime. |
 |
| I gotta say when I done this back in my school we did not take it this seriously but somehow are rocket went the furthest by a fluke 😂😂 Hoping next episode we will get to see Umika take up her position as leader of the group, cause right now Raimon feels more like the leader. It’s so hard to pick a favourite of the group there all so fun and unique. |
| The way I see Raimon is that every word she says shows her own anxiety and insecurity. She definitely didn't accept Umika's challenge and join the hobby group for a half-baked reason. Having been through all these times with them, she feels like she can achieve something meaningful, and something that can make her probably first ever friends impress at (she's probably thinking they would abandon her if she failed at the end). In other words, it's her self-esteem that makes her a rather harsh but interesting character to see. Do your best, Umika, Yuu, Haruno, and Raimon! |
| I hope Kei's team win |
| Raimon is a real piece of work but everyone knew what they were singing for when they invited her but it is starting to piss me off a bit. |
| I know she’s still getting used to a group environment, but man Raimon was a major asshole today. She’s clearly got a lot of emotional and insecurity issues, but I hate seeing her take them out on other people who are just trying to be nice to her. Like getting upset at Haruno because she doesn’t hate anything in the world? Like damn is it a crime to be happy now 💀. Then snapping on Umika who is literally the nicest person you could ever be around and just wants to help. It’s hard to watch at times, but in a way I’m glad we do have a character like her in this because there’s a LOT of girls like that irl who will snap on you for the tiniest of reasons and have emotional baggage. It doesn’t feel like just a traditional anime tsundere style anger either, feels real. In the end, I’m glad everything worked out ok and they got to the competition. Now it’s time to see the culmination of all these months of hard work. I’m sure it’s going to come down to the girls vs Kei and it’ll be great. It’s cool that they’re having Umika do the presentation as well. She’s obviously the weakest public speaker of the group, but this is a good growth opportunity for her. |

| Can't believe people don't see the obvious setup for character development from Raimon. She is the most nuanced character by far yet it's going over peoples heads. |

| @HajimeNozomiUwU There was character development though. From when they first introduced her she was a total a*s and then started to mellow down afterwards. Then we get last ep and now when she returns back to be a big bi**h. How do you become hostile to another rocket enthusiast who has literally has flowers for brains? And today she acted like a boss from a black company that abuse their power like you see in other animes. Also using"setup for character development" is really weak since then people will say that line for every bit**y character out there like let's say Myne from Shield hero. tl;dr Raimon is at the core an a*s for whatever reason and I don't see that changing til the end. |

| @HajimeNozomiUwU So you accept that she's not a friendly nice girl. Nice, then it shouldn't shock you why a lot of people hate her and you didn't even provide any counter argument. I'm ok with bitchy characters just like Millicent in Hikikomari but Raimon just isn't that either. Plus Kirara has a lot of not friendly girls if you've watched Yumekui Merry, Tamayomi, etc but obviously you didn't if that's your response. Also the utter disrespect calling all their other characters copy paste. tl;dr you can be not nice and still not come out as a total a*s. |

| Raimon is putting way too much pressure on herself there that's for sure. She was actually kind of annoying in the first half of the episode- Like, she should not treat her friends and fellow club members like that. But at least she managed to catch herself and calm down again |
 |
| Wow...Matataki lost her shit and went full J.K. Simmons Whiplash on the poor helpless Umika. I feel so bad for her, Umika clearly looks up to Matataki but all she gets is abuse. She was so upset even Akeuchi wasn't able to comfort her. Even tho it's her dream, it will very quickly become not fun. I don't think Matataki is doing it out of pure malice, but I don't think she understands how sensitive Umika actually is. |

| @HajimeNozomiUwU I don't think it is, fairly sure most sane watchers can predict the inevitable making up that will happen. It's too obvious if anything. Future character development doesn't necessarily excuse being unpleasant to watch at the moment though, so some people having problems with that is understandable. |
| Stop bullying poor Umika there Raimon come on get some more patience |

| Raimon needs to shut up sometimes :S Finally the rocket contest is starting! |
 |
| Loved this show until now but damn, this episode really pissed the shit out of me, Matatake is such an a*sh*le, this b*tch needs to learn to calm the hell down, irl no one would be friends let alone acquaint themselves with someone like this. I dont care if this is all a setup for her eventual character development, it doesnt change the fact now that she's being a c*nt. |
  |
| the fu*k Raimon made Umika cry...this is friggin' unacceptable! Umika is so cute somebody pls protecc her and someone punch the sense out of Raimon please!!! 5/5. |
 |
| Raimon was losing sight of things there but glad she snapped past it and ended up doing teamwork. Liked Umika this episode and liking sensei as usual. Their rocket looks cool with the galaxy coloring and same color scheme as Umika's hair. |
 |
| Ugh. I really don't like Raimon. I could hardly watch this episode with that attitude of hers. |
| Why is Raimon so edgy. This girl needs correction. |
| I can understand why people don't like Raimon, but I think she's the best character in the show. Without her, the plot wouldn't move, the girls would be too far from creating a decent rocket, and Umika wouldn't start taking action. For me, Umika irritates me way more. If you are doing a project with people that constantly are screwing things, is expected to get at least a bit angry (even worse for Raimon, who is angry almost 24/7). With Raimon they can stop just dreaming and start doing. I agree she could chill a bit, but she's still a great character. |
