Lol, Colors going on an operation to protect animals. I love these kids.

I find it amusing how kids get silly ideas from books with pictures. Oh well, kids gotta do what kids do especially in this show. I find it cute too in a way. Turned out to be a fun trip the zoo.

Surprisingly morbid premise this week: The Colors decide to raise hell at the zoo by illegally feeding the animals after failing to save Pops' life after he gave them his old toys to fend off a hungry tiger that was after him. If only they realized sooner! Well I guess Pops is dead now, that guy we saw later? Clearly an impostor. XD Seriously though I hadn't ever heard they had to kill the animals at the zoo during WWII. I guess it makes sense, but still a very sad note for this series. Well at least the zoo was fun in the present. And Kotoha loving Sat-chan's bad puns never gets old. Just wish they'd learn to appreciate best-girl Yui a bit more. And that includes Saito, such a dick sabotaging her paper airplane like that!

It was pretty weird for Kotoha to not be playing video games the whole time...also, I was expecting her to laugh at the elephant story, but you know, whatever.

My favorite episode so far, I had a fun time with this one.

Very funny watching Kotoha with that Kendama.

That was a rather disturbing book.

I haven't been to a zoo for a long time now, I really gotta go sometime, I do like animals a lot.

Kotoha said so many funny things throughout this episode.

When you want to keep the cuteness of the opening but trouble isn't the same on english and on japanese:


Also I came for the cuteness not for crying, what was that elefant book. At least it gave foot for the zoo trip. Another awesome episode.

Yet another episode that put a big dumb smile on my face.

Episodes like this make me wish subbers(?) still added translator's notes for the puns like back in the day, instead putting the nonsensical anglicized versions of them.

I didn't like Kotoha much at first, because she was way too precocious and chyuuni compared to the other two. So, glad she has been acting more like her age since the last couple of episodes.

Another fun episode!
wacky eyeglasses Pops definitely has a lot of toys for kids!
LOL! Saito's not working as a security guard, he's just playing!
Sacchan, Yui and Kotoha all cried because of that sad book about elephants!
Molorails are cool!
Shoebill? I immediately remembered Kemono Friends!
They went to the Zoo for the purpose of seeing Elephants but they almost forgot it because they were amused to other animals!
BWAHAHA! just because the zoo guide just looks a little like Saito already means that he's a liar? lolz!
These kid simply violated Zoo's rules and they should be punished by a slap on their butts!
5/5.

Shes got some pretty good accuracy with that kendama. Anyway, I believe the bit with the elephants is where I stopped readin the manga, what a sad story. Not because I didn't enjoy t or anything, but I was reading other stuff at the time and watching a lot of anime on top. Also all those puns were pretty great. Also also, Shoebill... Something something... kemono friends.

Honestly, Yui might be the leader and Kotoha the brains but to me it looks like Sacchan is more of a leader and brains while not having Kotoha's finishing deductions, Sacchan instigate their missions

d'aww, this anime is so adorable every time.

I don't think it's getting enough credit for how human it makes the characters feel. Not just colors but the side characters too. It really makes it enjoyable to watch, it's not just another "cute girls doing cute things in high school" show. I can't pinpoint an exact impressive moment but it's definitely noticeable.

I think my favourite color right now is yellow (sat-chan). I don't usually gravitate towards the energetic loud ones but she's so funny and her "unko" thing is funny.

This anime doesn't have a very high budget clearly, they had the still panning shots which are a shame. But at least the background art is always solid. The zoo looked good in this episode.

EDIT: also wanted to mention the generation gap thing. "I think pops is trying to tell us that he didn't have any fun as a kid". This was so funny and clever.

To my great astonishment, I notice that the quality of the drawings has become more than sufficient, unlike the other times, hurray! As for the episode, I had a lot of fun watching it; what a sympathy those three little girls, not to mention the old games of the Old, which brought me back in time, really enjoyed themselves with little.

What for you need that kendama toy then?.. I think I've seen it before, but I don't remember..
"Maybe Oyaji wanted to tell us that he had no fun in the childhood?" Oof.. ;D So meh were these toys to them..
Yeah, I remember sad stories in the childhood.. About animals or something.. They indeed could make you cry back then, some of them..
And yeah.. Even if you played some other killing monsters games or whatever at the same time..
Zoo is nice.. When you don't have allergy to animals, like I have, for example.. ;D Omega oof for me.. ;p
Monorail?.. Ah, ok, makes sense.. Because he's riding on one rail above him..
lol.. Well, I mean, animals are used to feed other animals in zoos.. As well as humans eat animals..

Kotoha wrecking Saito's planes with her kendama was hilarious. Poor guy. They never leave him alone.

That story was just too sad. Poor animals. :(

However, I enjoyed that zoo part a lot. The girls were so excited about all those animals.

The elephhants were fine, so they didn't have to worry about them. :)

"Food coming your way!" Hilarious scene.

Also, I'm glad the tiger didn't eat Pops, haha.
