The midterms are over, and the secret hideout treehouse project can finally start get going.

Serufu is surprisingly intelligent placing 3rd from the top, and Takumi is the perfect candidate, which gave Rei the shock. Jobko's Japanese still isn't up to snuff, and I feel emotionally relatable and attacked being in her shoes trying to learn all 3 different types of the writing lols. They could've gone to Yuyu Girls Vocational, but made the decision to drop to Gatagata Girls, which is a godsend.

Either way, Serufu's been working on something for the past few days disturbing the neighbours with her DIY work of creating a house for her pet pig Meat to prove her usefulness, seeing that the no one bought her shellwork accessories. Miku, your tsundereness easily shows to Jobko, and the AI jellyfish, how elegant are lovely maidens bathing together. ELEGANCE!

Everyone gets invited to Serufu's house, building Meat's house in her backyard. The amount of lumber would've been enough to build one, and while Serufu gets her power tools working, the others assemble for her 2 other huge dogs and the cat's scratching post. Meat's house being dictated by the pig itself, and Serufu is pushing herself too hard, where the whole team can come together and help her out. Sure, Serufu might not be useful practically, but her intelligence is a valuable asset to the club, that's character development. You don't have to literally do it yourself :)

As the DIY club goes to school and full of hopes that the treehouse project can be done, Truck-kun makes an appearance to take away all of the wood from the school's backyard. And all the materials are gone in an instant...what to do now, girls?

You may be useless and clumsy, but that's why we love you Serufu. Do It, Yua Serufu!
And DAMMIT, wood be Isekai'ed.

Nice character development for Serufu. She's really doing her best to hone her DIY skills.

What a lovely idea to make a house for your dear pig. <3 Good job, girls!

And Puring being a tsundere as usual. :P It's pretty hilarious how she's acting.

Oh no! Truck-kun strikes again.

This is certainly a smart tactics, you see when you have an alive animal, and you want to cook it, first you need to make it feel safe, and at ease, so the meat is all fresh and soft, and not stressed and stiff. Very smart move Serufu, now is the mom's turn to finish the rest, she can finally make one of those pig dishes she's been talking about all this time.

And yeah, that cgi truck at the end did looked very suspicious.

Jobko's rant about Japanese hit too close to home XD. The handwriting is fun though. When I look at what she wrote at 20:44, I wonder if Jobko's English has taken a hit since she's been in Japan.


Hearing that from Purin made Serufu happy. If only she was more honest with herself. The house for Meat looks great but he's just chilling on the roof. Thought he'd start sleeping on it like Snoopy.

The title was quite accurate. Totally didn't expect that to happen. 3 episodes to go. Hope they'll be able to make it somehow.

With this episode, Gatagata is just a second option if you can get to YuuVoc.

Meat full name raise concerns, but better not to think about it.

A truck just don't appear in an anime.

as soon as I heard the motor of that truck overwhelm all other sounds and they showed it several times, I knew it was a Chekov's gun...I at first thought maybe they had taken down their club house though, but it appears they hauled off the pallets they collected.

I tune in to Do It Yourself!! expecting the usual feel-good happy ending. I was feeling a little down and this show always picks me up with its positive messages. But then... What?!?!? A cliffhanger?! A mystery?! A crime?! Suddenly my happy ending is in doubt, and there is no ending at all while we await the next episode. I may have to go back and watch again, stopping after the pig house is complete, to get that positive energy I need.

As soon as that truck drove by the girls i knew what would happen, why else would they show the truck in the first place as the girls where walking to school.
I guess the palets where mistaken for trash the question now is can they get them back or do they have to collect new ones.
Maybe even one of the teachers asked for the pallets to be removed they might have viewed it as a hazard or something like that.

Serafu has surprisingly good grades for such a clumsy girl.

I knew it... this episode was way too wholesome so something bad had to happen at the end to balance things out...

I had forgotten Serufu was able to attend to Yuyu with Purin but decided to go to Katagata, she is actually pretty smart but she is too much of a dreamer.

Oh no!! They lost all their supplies! D: I hope they can get them back to start work on the secret hideout! Something felt off about that truck at the end... and while I didn't know what was gonna happen with it, I suppose I was right about it spelling some kind of doom.

But anyway, they also made a pig house, which I thought was cute. I also love the name they gave said pig.

Yet another great episode of DIY, as Serufu had some decent character development this episode. She thinks that she's holding back the club because she hasn't contributed much in terms of sales for her shells, but that's not really the case. Purin and Jobko had a nice moment there in the bath, as Jobko was trying to get Purin to edge away from her tsundere-act towards Serufu, and in the end, Purin knew exactly why Serufu went to such lengths to try to prove herself.

And this all turns into a wholesome moment when Serufu messes up the house for Meat, and the DIY members help her out, because the club is all about teamwork, sometimes, you don't have to do it yourself! It's really nice to see Serufu having so many people supporting her.

The moment I saw that CG truck-kun, I knew something was wrong, and sure enough, the materials to build the tree house were all gone... and of course we're left at a cliffhanger...

Mostly a happy wholesome episode, mostly lol. It was really nice seeing the whole club plus Purin at Serufu’s house to see her build a house for Meat, it was also nice seeing Meat happy and hyped instead of terrified lol. It was seeming a little sad as Serufu was putting herself down for not being useful, but Purin and Jobko showed her that she has her own way of being useful, and Serufu’s expression upon Purin telling her that was too precious lol.

It was also sweet that the club helped her finish the house for Meat, and it definitely looked epic, tho I wonder why he’s the 3rd generation lol. And man, when everyone’s excitement was at its highest the worst happens, all of the materials they gathered are gone, I knew when they showed that truck a little earlier something was up, look at how they massacred my girls, i need next week now lol, I MUST know if they get to build their secret base.

DAMN IT TRUCK-KUN!

Ah, probably wasn't a good idea to put the materials in what I assume is a garbage disposal area?

You wouldn't really expect Serufu to be smart, but it's sort of not that surprising as well, weirdly enough. Her brain is probably on overdrive all the time.

This is Meat 3rd Generation High-Grade Meat the Third's reward after all the suffering he has to go through, cause that's a really nice crib.

Serufu and Purin are just too precious. Can't wait for the next episode.

Serufu's main objective in inviting the DIY club, plus Purin, to her house was to show that she could show that she can contribute more to the club by being able to assemble a new wooden house for her pet piglet, Meat. Unfortunately, her plan didn't go as well as she hoped it would, as her skill limits with the jigsaw showed when she tried to cut pig ears and a tail from the plank of wood.

Rei and the other members all rushed in to make sure she was okay, before reassuring Serufu that her ideas already contribute a lot to the club, while also reminding her that teamwork is always helpful and that she should rely on everyone's help more often when she needs it. With that, everyone worked together to make a pretty and colourful house for Meat, who was very happy with the result himself. =)

After that, everyone was pumped up to start their main project, the secret hideout. Sadly, when they went to collect the materials stored behind the school, they were shocked to find out that all of it was gone.

Yet again, Truck-kun strikes with perfect accuracy. At first, I thought the truck was arriving to deliver materials, but I'm guessing that a teacher automatically assumed that the materials stored there was for disposal given the area that it was placed in, so it would make sense for a truck that shape and size to arrive and collect it all.

Either way, this is already a major setback for the DIY club. I can hope that they can get the materials back if possible.

Awwww you're not useless at all, Serufu. This episode is making this old man cry. Pudding knows how Serufu thinks because she deeply cares about her. That moment with the wind blowing away Pudding's hair, I assume she feels as though Serufu does not need her help specifically or that Pudding realizes she's been missing out on a lot of things. But, that is a wholesome episode, until the end crushes the girls and me. Jobko's English is a tad worrying considering she herself is a native.

also, can anyone tell me what Jobko is wearing in the bath? What's the purpose of it?

That ending hurt, ngl. But it's the DIY club and they still have 3 episodes left, they'll figure it out.
What actually annoys me a bit is that they keep teasing Purin joining the club, wearing overalls in the opening and her predicting Serufus entire thought process, as two examples, but even in this episode, she just doesn't. She better come to the rescue in the next episode, that's the one thing I finally want to see.

Haha! Funny stuff.

I noticed the truck in the background but I figured it was just additional detail and so when the wood was missing I thought that Purin had moved it to surprise the girls and then declare that she finally joined the club but the truck taking it makes more sense since they showed it at least 3 times.

I vaguely recall a video years ago about someone using a public API reporting the locations of a town's buses, to help someone find a missing item they left on a bus. If this town is setup with drone delivery and automatic shuttles, wonder if it's possible to track a garbage truck.

Seems possible but it would be much more cruel if they are told that the pile was gone for few days already. They would be forced to find new materials and do it quickly. A perfect timing for Purin to finally join the avengers too
