Stranger danger, Stranger danger. ok that girl is either brave or stupid why would you even try to help him? even if what he said was true it's still a little creepy that he want's to wear something she has. also I'm pretty sure that he stole that orange from the shrine right next to them.

Typical, you are waiting for the train and you find an old man in the grass asking you for things to cover his body. Who hasn't experienced that before?

This was the least interesting episode for me since I didn't get the jokes. That girl had a very strange encounter with that guy. She should have just left him.

Strangest yet funniest episode so far.

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron

Well having just marathoned the first 6 episodes this certainly is quite the quirky little anthology short series. Not sure which I liked the best so far, but definitely one of the first 4. Wasn't really feeling the goth girl previous episode or this one with the guy with no pants.

Might be my favorite. She's cute, and it was funny how she kind of pushed the stockings on him.

So... unexpected...

Definitely the worst episode so far, in my opinion of course. The whole setting was too odd for my taste and since I'm not japanese... I didn't get the jokes. I suppose it has to be related to the way the words sound in japanese but I rarely find that kind of jokes funny.

I want my goth lolita with insecurity problems back!!!

That was more hard sexual harassment than simple creepiness.

OK....this one don pass my power o! (Translation from Nigerian pidgin: I don't get it)

Apparently we are going from the realm of the normal to the realm of the bizzare.

I guess anyone who speaks and understands Japanese might get the pun related jokes about the orange...

P.S Some hassaku oranges/citrus

OK....here is my interpretation of today's episode...


You might discover good things in unexpected places.

Also, the fact that the girl met the old man near a temple, and she gave him gifts....and in return she gets a gift. A local delicacy of an orange. Might be the old man is really a.......god. (probabaly the god associated with the shrine near the railway crossing seen at the begining of the short).

And the fact that she turns the gift down...hmm
Means something...I don't know.

A lot can be done in three minutes...

Was I the only one eyeing those flags the entire episode going "RIP THE FLAGS DOWN AND LET HIM USE THOSE!"?

...He could return them later after he gets some pants put on.

I thought that old man wearing see through stockings would nonchalantly rape that young schoolgirl!
3/5.

I didn’t really like this episode... it was okay but I think I need more context to understand the hassuku orange ...

But he could tear the paper bag and wear it like a diaper and put the stockings on and he would have good coverage!

I was laughing from when they show the old man until the end.

I also hate myself for imagining how the stockings and the paper bag looked like in an old man. 😖😞

That devastated look in the girl's face when she caught the orange which was touched by a bottom-naked (apparently) old man.

For me this is the funniest episode so far.

Thought I suppose you don't want to hear that from an old man wearing stockings.

Got to love anime. This show is pretty great cuz everything is so unexpected.

some subs will explain what the joke means with extra text you might need to turn on "full" subs or whatever the sub maker calls it.

I feel like I am missing a complex joke here that only works in Japanese. Can anyone explain?
Pretend there's something flashy and cool here.
