Lol, Renge can be so unpredictable sometimes but that's what's fun about watching her.

The Koma-plushie things are adorable. They could be a mascot for this season.

That toy was funny especially how it walked all over the place.

Akane being shy was funny as well but she was found out anyway which was nice.
Anyway the misunderstanding was a great scene.

Man.... Non non Biyori just never fails to make my day, it really is a masterpiece... Today lacked Natsumi screentime, but last week had no Hotarun or Koma-chan-senpai at all so I'm glad to see them again

Also.... Koma-gurumiiiiiii xD

The adventure of Koma-plushieeee. It will rule the world! No matter if there is a small river or something, not afraid of anything.

But the army definitely expanded in compare to last time we saw Hotaru's room...

Isn't Hotarun's project too advance for the fifth-grade student? lmao.
I love those Koma-chan plushies, they are very adorable. They never fail to amuse me when I saw them in Hotaru's room. It's like we are Koma-chan plushies and we want to conquer this world. 🤣

Renge-chon is probably the most realistic kid in all of Anime, her VA deserves and award for nailing a 7yo voice (even tho she's 30)!
well that's just my opinion.....

Wait, how the heck did Hotaru-chan make that advanced of a toy for the project? Not going to lie, I don't know if I could even make that despite being an Engineering student.

Anyways, that Koma plushie is a serious piece of work if it can handle all those falls and circle back to home. Quite the youkai indeed, lol. Komari-senpai had it (the truth) in the bag but then veered off into another planet xD.

Akane-chan playing the slug game "after all" was the lol moment of the episode for me. Imagine playing hopscotch and then end up being suspected for being a wild animal. Rough day, indeed.

@Tirinchas Ah right, that makes a whole lot more sense.

Hotaru got some mad plushie/robotic skills if she can make that and it survived all the things it did. Anyone getting that battery commercial vibe. Keeps going and going and going.... Also it's always nice to see Hotaru getting fluttered whenever the Komari plushie gets mentioned

This episode had some pretty well-written comedic plotlines. Between the Komari-plushie and Akane hiding from Konomi, it was all planned out very well. Plus the VAs did a great job with the material.

Oh Hotaru, you and your Koma plushies never gets old, I do think it gets out of hand, but it's still priceless either way XD She made the most ultimate plushy and I feel like I was watching A baby's day out: Mech Plush edition.

Renge and Akane were also great again. The part when Renge said, You ended up like a slug that found salt anyway, was hilarious!

The robot she assembled is based on this:



https://www.tamiya.com/english/products/70166sound/index.htm
https://www.pololu.com/product/732

I can't find the talking robot but I guess there's a similar item out there. It's not exactly the same: the Tamiya robot comes with a sound sensor, and Hotaru's model has an infrared sensor. Apparently you barely have to do any electronics, so she had to put together the parts, and make a plushie for the two robots.
It's still impressive. I wish I could make plushies like her, never mind robots.

I feel a strong spiritual connection to Akane's bad luck. Even with Renge helping a brother out, she still became a snail that found salt, tragic.

Certainly an A+ for effort on Renge covering for Akane. Unfortunately, she still wound up a slug that found salt in the end.

I very much want a talking Koma plushie now.

While the adventures of the Koma-plushie were highly entertaining, I spent most of the time in that segment just confused as to how Hotaru was able to make something so advanced and durable when she's, like, 11.

I also want to like Akane, but I really don't think she adds much of anything to the overall group dynamics/character interactions of the show. It also feels as if they've wrung all the humour they can out of her shyness already, and this episode saw it start to get slightly grating instead.

Hotaru must be a prodigy when it comes to electronics, making something that's really advanced, considering that she's around 11 years old.

Still, it made for an entertaining episode with the adventures of the Koma-Plushie, being able to survive land, water and even being dropped from the air from a bird.

More Akane screentime is very welcome in my eyes and the poor girl came over to see Konomi on the wrong day, so she ended up playing with Renge instead, but when Konomi herself appeared, Akane did her best to avoid contact, which ended up backfiring on her. Like Renge said, she indeed became a slug that found some salt.

Hotaru thought she was in the clear when her plushie somehow found its way home, but since Akane did see it, it became the hot topic when she came over again to hang out with Hotaru and Komari. The amount of Hotaru expressions she did, along with how she pronounced "Koma-pluh!", was too cute.

Next time, Non Non Biyori goes camping. In before everyone compares it to Yuru Camp even more than before. XD

Hotaru making a freaking functional robot at 11 xD Also wonder how she managed to obtain those dialogues.

As for Renge, she did what she could to cover her homie but unfortunately, Akane still ended up like a slug that found salt. Truly sad.

Though a bit weaker than previous 4 episodes, it was still a pretty lovely one. So... Non Non Biyori x Yuru Camp crossover next week?

Aww how adorable that Renge has grown up. She hid Aka-chan well unlike being transparent about it.

The Adventures of Koma-plushie was dynamic with how it traveled all around and back home.
Hotaru and her Koma-chan senpai army are safe yet again. I wonder how they haven't found about it yet. And then there's Koma-chan senpai with her own imagination.XD

Komagurumi was definitely hilarious! that was an escape adventure!
programming skills with applied infrared robot circuitry of Hotarun is top class!
it cracks me up when Rengu plays her own hopscotch!
Hotaru really had a hard time covering-up her own Komagurumi to Komari!
5/5.

"Watashi, Koma-gurumi!"

Couldn't stop laughing at this episode. The mecha Koma-gurumi is the most hillarious one of all. But it's suprising that the mecha Koma-gurumi can survive underwater and even when impacting the ground.

Aka-chan seen this and told what happened during that time is funny too. Poor Hotarun! XD

Houtarou should get a job as a toymaker, that Komari plushie just went through the thick and thin and still returned back to her. Impressive work to be honest.

Renge is so funny and such a bro. She tried her hardest to cover Akane, but in the end it didn't matter :(.

Last bit with the Komari plushie was so funny with Houtarou's reactions LOL
