Tamako with her hair down is cuter than her with ponytail. Does she has glasses too for a little while?

lol @ thinking of Valentine specials for advertisements. lol @ the expressions when nervous in speech. lol @ the chicken replacing the machine. And who's that dark-skinned people?? the people that the chicken is searching for?

Valentines Nervousness, I was surprised at Tamako's father, who would've thought he would be a tsundere.

Mocchimazzi was plugged in instead of the projector lol

Also I loled at literal Mochimazzi on the line, I'm like get off the line no seriously please get off the line. Not sure who those tribespeople were on the film and if he was trying to search for them or not, sounds like he got accidentally shipped to Japan in those flowers where he was discovered by Tamako and Kaoru.

Those bunny suits were cute

Really great episode. This one had some particularly great animation too, although, KyoAni generally has great animation all the time.

Is it next week yet?!

Lol, still not much of a story. But so moe and cute. Tamako's dad... was really cute when he made the heart mochi and was blushing and stuff. XD

I LOLed so hard when the bird started projecting the commercial. XD

More characters next episodes it seems.

It's a cyborg bird...

And I guess this is becoming magical reality, where it's just slightly surprising to see a bird project an image, and the fact that it talks isn't even thought as weird anymore.

Great ep. Far less random and slower paced than the first ep which is nice to see.

Love all the characters so far, and Midori totally has the hots for Tamako. Hopefully we'll see progress on that front in the coming eps :D

Also, seeing cute girls in bunny costumes = win

And of course, who can forget the bird? Seriously, I find it hard NOT to like him.



Just look at that #swag

I stopped caring about those details. I see it as a cute and fluffy show so trying to figure out how the bird operates and why everyone acts normally around it is pointless imo.

Just enjoy it ;D

Good episode,was more slow that last episode but still pretty good!

The girls looked cute in bunny costumes also loved the way the speak when they were nervous and i starting to have some yuri feelings from Midori to Tamako our maybe its me overthinking things
The tsundere dad was funny and the rest group was funny specially like the grandpa.

Dera still great specially at the end how they discover he was kinda a robot and nobody gives a damn....yep that kind of anime.

Well so far seems will be a relax comedy anime,will continue to watch no doubt!

Still don't see why the bird's in the series at all, but I guess it's just one of those funny quirks that some anime have.
I also quite liked the way Midori's growing feelings for Tamako wasn't just thrown into one big realization, like "oh wait, I'm crushing on my best friend!", but rather fed to her with subtlety. Hopefully Tamako won't completely ignore her for the sake of that stupid mochi-rival-guy -.-

Definitely! In the description of the series, they also wrote something along the lines of "Midori having to figure out her growing feelings for Tamako". Though with that M-something-guy from the rival mochi shop in the picture, I don't think it'll be canon :(

I agree with that, and I'm particularily glad it wasn't used for comedy.

I'm starting to think this has a message about accepting things as they are, be it unconventional feelings, a crossdressing florist, or a talking projector-bird.

I found it quite surprising that Midori has feelings for Tamako i did not think this was the sort of anime that would touch anything like that, i thought it would just have the girls relationship like k-on's or something. Well lets hope they actualy use it instead of just using it for just this episode then just forgetting about it.

Like a few people said this anime really does not need that bird i think i would like this better without him.

Everytime i hear Tamako's dad speak i can not help but think of http://myanimelist.net/character/39989/Amata_Kihara , i know he has had a load of roles but i think Kihara was the first character i really noticed his voice and had it stick with me.

Gotta love how everyone is saying the bird has no point in the series when we are two episodes in. I would bet my hat that at SOME point, him as his whole "bride for his prince" mission will be important.

I, personally, was not a fan of the yuri tones... Heck with that, I am TOTALLY hardcore shipping Tamako x Mochizou.

This show definitely has character (despite the "moe" overload).

I'm glad the bird was toned down a little this episode. He still rubs me the wrong way, but I DO appreciate his role in the story.

Either she's transgender, or he's very feminine. There's nothing "wrong" with them. I don't know if you've realized it, but a major theme in this show is accepting unconventional things, be it a talking bird, a transgender/feminine florist, or feelings for someone of the same gender. "Anyone can love anyone they want," as Kana says.

Ugh, the moe felt too forced and while the story was less random than the first episode, it practically shifted focus to a holiday event and to another character, which is a bit odd for a second episode. All in all, I don't think this episode really did anything, and while I guess that's the point of slice of life shows, it felt more like a holiday special than an episode made to develop the series/characters. The whole Midori/Tamako thing reminds me way too much of Ritsu/Mio's, and given KyoAni's reputation of playing it safe, I can almost guarantee that it will end in the very same manner. (5/10)

In all fairness the Midori/Tamako thing has already gone farther in two episodes than the Ritsu/Mio thing ever did.

Was there anything between them at all? I might have missed something ...
