| Tsuchida really does have a lock on the kindergarten crowd to the bewilderment of everyone not in that age group. Yep, Hinagiku is adorable. Funny that she is essentially the head of the local yakuza. The first story was fine. Sakura is such a willing accomplice to the constant scheming of Anzu, Hiiragi & co. |
 |
| Hinagiku was so adorable, I have a really soft spot for small kimonos. I rally wanted to know what the sidetail twins did over summer but noOoOOoooOOoO, all they get to do is point the way to Yamamoto. Yamamoto>Hinagiku>>Anzu *coughalmostchildlaborcough* |

| First half -Fun times with selling fish.....oh and tanned Anzu. That was a bit of a shock. I guess Gainax decided to go with that for this week. Second half -Wow, Hinagiku is insanely adorable. -This is like the weirdest harem ever. Tsuchi's got two kindergarten kids after him but he has a crush on Yamamoto. It's almost as if this is trying to be more than a cute show but not looking incredibly pervy. -"And soon I'll grow breasts and become Tsuchi's perfect woman" You've got a long wait girl. (Unless, some KnJ crap happens to you :P) I really could use a spinoff of this show with the characters in high school. That would be entertaining. |
 |
| Wonderful episode once again, the addition of Hinagiku to the cast bring a lot of fun and a lot of variety in the situations. Next episode seems like fun too. |
 In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same. |
| That was fun..but Yamamoto again she is so adorable.. Wait next week will we see Hiiragi's grown up wanna be? ooo that's something to look forward |
 |
| Yes, this episode was good BUT, the next episode looks awesome. Ok, that word is a little too powerful but it will be great. |
| The ending song is kawaii, it seem like they keep changing ending songs. Also the insert song too xD Indeed Hinagiku is so adorable xD |

| Awww, Yamamoto really does remind me of Akari a lot... She's so calm and adorable. "Let's create more wonderful memories together at Neo-Venezia Hanamaru Kindergarten." |
 |
| +1 for more sidetail twins! Hinagiku will surpass Yamamoto when she grows up. |

| one thing i like about this series is tsuchida doesn't take any of it seriously. if he did it would just be another kodomo no jikan. it's just "yes, yes, you love me. how cute. now where did yamamoto go?" |
| the masochist says "hurt me! hurt me!" the sadist replies "no" |
| Waaaa, Hinagiku is so cute!!! I liked the ending too... |
 |
| Nice tan. |
 |
| That a nice cute episode. The first part was interesting to know more about that girl Aoi and her parents. Hiiragi of course was educational. I do wonder what was that astrological event that Hiiragi took a picture of? A shooting star event?=> The second part of Hinagiku was surprising but as Tsuchida I would not involve myself with her if for her love.....one mistake and Tsuchida can be dead even worse his family.......let's just say I recently decided to read upon the Yakuzas and watch some films about then. Also to add first reaction to this: "Pffff what? What? Pfffftt!"=> |

francismeunier said: Oh really Tsuchida is wonderful person for reading perverted magazines.... XD=> That was really random, why did she like that? I know this anime but can a girl of Hinagiku's equivalent learn all this IRL? At this age?=> She is at least as surreal as Hiiragi, but it's anime hey :) Oh my....O_O Hinagiku sure has a wild imagination about Yamamoto but IRL with her authority she could order her father to get rid of her.....right?=> Face your enemy first, she did that. And we all know how hard it's to deal with Yamamoto, being an angel as she is. Koume is already taken by that Ikemen, no one complained yet? :) |
francismeunier said: I do wonder what was that astrological event that Hiiragi took a picture of? A shooting star event?=> It isn't really a special event. It is a picture of the night sky with the lens left open to capture the stars' trails as the earth rotates. Awesome stuff. Anyway, loved this episode. Tan Anzu-chan was just adorable. |

HoaRy said: I suppose it might be a indirect message that girls like perverts? I know this anime but can a girl of Hinagiku's equivalent learn all this IRL? At this age?=> HoaRy said: Well Hiiragi is more realistic in the sense of little kid genius but Hinagiku not sure about her since I did not read about kids having the mental aptitude learning this.....She is at least as surreal as Hiiragi, but it's anime hey :) Oh my....O_O Hinagiku sure has a wild imagination about Yamamoto but IRL with her authority she could order her father to get rid of her.....right?=> HoaRy said: Face your enemy first, she did that. And we all know how hard it's to deal with Yamamoto, being an angel as she is. Yeah you are right about that.....she did at least the right thing....I would not think she would think like that but I assumed it as a possibility. HoaRy said: Guess not and I have to admit that him giving her the Koala was a good sign of a relation progression. I think they are good for each other. Koume is already taken by that Ikemen, no one complained yet? :) D4rk1ch1g0 said: Same here but was more "What *laugh*" kind of expression. francismeunier said: I know this anime but can a girl of Hinagiku's equivalent learn all this IRL? At this age?=> D4rk1ch1g0 said: I'm not sure either xD Let's assume maybe since this is anime at best. francismeunier said: Oh my....O_O Hinagiku sure has a wild imagination about Yamamoto but IRL with her authority she could order her father to get rid of her.....right?=> D4rk1ch1g0 said: She's not so devil and besides she is only a kindergarten child even though she's a yakuza's daughter, i don't think she can have those ideas xD I though so too but HoaRy is right that her mind set would not be like that unless her mind would be polluted with a lot of movies/TV shows which is not the case from the looks of how her father raised her. francismeunier said: Oh my.....Hinagiku's father is so much more bigger that it was frightening to see it here=> D4rk1ch1g0 said: Yeah I will agree on that one.......and so GIFs I figured out to make for all=> Anzu/Aoi and Tsuchida's problems... Yeah in this anime, i figure that the proportion isn't very good. I don't think even if they are in kindergarten, they are so much small, am i wrong ?   Zerakus said: Yeah that is neat so it was a way of using the lens that made such a effect.....nice one....sure can learn something about the lenses of telescopes. francismeunier said: I do wonder what was that astrological event that Hiiragi took a picture of?

| Quite the opposite reaction I was expecting from him. If I were her father, I'd totally kick Tsuchida's ass. |

TAB said: Quite the opposite reaction I was expecting from him. If I were her father, I'd totally kick Tsuchida's ass. After how he reacted to him and him being a little scared cat....I understand. Yakuza want strong people not wimpy like Tsuchida......from what I saw in movies. |

| The only thing I hate about this series is that it's only 12 episodes long while the manga version already reached 40+ chapters. I hope there'll be season 2. i just can't let myself to enjoy this show so much knowing how short it would be. :( I love Hinagiku!!!!!! |
Kleeyook said: There is a manga of this? So the ideal then is I should try to see from any of you where this will end and read from there.

| Pretty good episode. The introduction of Aoi and Hinagiku is a breath of fresh air. I have a new appreciation for fish vendors. |
 |
| Great episode again, Hinagiku is so cute :D |
| The first part was pretty boring and meh. Why would a young child want to work so much? I'm almost 20 but still am not looking forward to getting a job. Kids should be kids; adults should be adults. They have different roles in society. Kids are supposed to have fun while learning about basic math or something. Adults are the ones working, because not only is working physically and emotionally exhausting, depending on the occupation, it can also be dangerous. If I were the dad, I wouldn't have let Aoi work, much less somebody else's children to help as well (if the children were to get hurt, imagine the lawsuits). OK, sorry for the realist rant. The second part was adorable, like everyone else said. Gotta love how they portray the yakuza members. Hinagiku is definitely adorable; she sure knows her manners. Sorry Anzu and Yamamoto, but compared to Hinagiku, both of you have long ways to go :) |
 Thanks, person who gave me this on another site a long time ago, lol. |

The way Tsuchida acts really bugs me. If kindergartners ever did that to me, I'd sit them down and explain how that's not appropriate, etc. He just ignores it/brushes it off like it's no big deal :/ Anyways, this is just anime so I'm not taking this too seriously lol. |

I think she just wanted to scream really loudly |

| Every episode is better than the last. I don't know what I'm going to do with myself while waiting for the next episode to air. Hinagiku is epic... Almost as epic as Hii-chan. I kinda want this anime to end with everyone grown up. ^_^ Like a ... Ten Years Later OVA Special. |

marionettekadaj said: I kinda want this anime to end with everyone grown up. ^_^ Like a ... Ten Years Later OVA Special. Yeah, this totally. Just an OVA or two with them grown-up is all I want. |
| |
| Hinagiku > Anzu It was interesting episode so far. After I watched the preview, I am not sure if I want OVA for them grown up. |
| Awwwwwww, Hinagiku is so kawaii. x) |
| First part was somewhat boring (still liked it!) yet had a good concept behind it. While that part wasn't suppose to be funny the second section made up for that. I have a lousy sense of humor too. I also concur, Hinagiku > Anzu. |
| HAHA so cute Are Japanese people that generous? o-o giving away free tuna haha Hinagiku so cute lol taken an interest with Tsuchida |
     |
| Seriously Tsuchida needs to stop letting out child-attracting pheromones lol. |
| Hahahaha, pretty funny episode. It was funny seeing all the girls selling fish, and Anzu-chan only encouraged her rival. XD |
| Hinagiku's bodyguards threatening Tsuchi was really funny |
Live well - Laugh often - and Love much |
| Nice but also ridiculous. |
