That was another cute episode.
If Umika has a strong dream about building her own rocket and about space, she should study hard and try to get a job in JAXA.

Another sweet episode.

All that blushing and Umika's hilarious expressions are so priceless. She's, like, 10 times more nervous than Hitori Bocchi, haha.

A bottle rocket? "Kirayaba!", like Hikaru Hoshina from Star☆Twinkle Pretty Cure would say. :)

"A hundred meters? Which planets are in that range?" Possibly only Mars... x3

That cute building project reminded me of Do It Yourself!!

Umika wants to create a rocket, but the type of rockets that she wants to build are not what she expected.

Their class president Haruno Takaragi, taken over by surprise that the abandoned lighthouse was where Akeuchi is, she's even more enthusiastic about outer space. and becomes Umika's 2nd friend. But building a rocket, it's big business that involves people, and Haruno wouldn't mind helping them out. But Umika wanting to find the time to ask Akeuchi about making a soda-bottle rocket, starting small would help...but drinking it would be bad, so Haruno makes it a point to share within the class, how resourceful. After decorating their bottle rocket, it's too realistic to ever use that for outer space expedition, and Akeuchi wouldn't mind staying on Earth more than go back to her homeland. After pumping some water, they're ready to release their bottle rocket, and the first step to realizing their dream is born.

Baby steps...to space.

Well the first rocket is build which was a small step for this anime but a big step for the girls.
And a new friend joins the group who also seems to have a rich fantasy which is nice to watch and at least their classmates are not looking down on them which is always a good thing.

A cute slice-of-life episode about making a new friend and building a 'rocket' together.
Umika gets a little bit better at talking to others :)

You'll probably need to search around online for those other anime sites that aren't legal anime sites if you're trying to watch anime that's not on Crunchyroll.

This really does get better and better. I'm seriously considering giving it a 10 after the second episode - and I really don't do that with every anime.😍

Umika and Haruno talking in alien language was just too kawaii. "Bonavu -- matibu". Splendid! It immediately found its way into my everyday speech. If you search for "cute" in an encyclopedia, you're bound to see an image of this conversation😍

If you break it down, we're actually watching three girls build a bottle rocket for 20 minutes. It's the dynamic of these lovable characters that you immediately fall in love with, making such a simple scenario such a diverting episode. And that makes it brilliant.💖

Umika drawing things from her head seems to be a recurring theme in the series.

I can sympathize with how Umika despairs of the mathematics behind rocket building. Today the new semester began in my country and I'm sitting here in front of a physics lecture about submanifolds and I don't understand a word. Umika motivated me to keep going.👨🏻‍🔬

After the second week I noticed even more how beautiful the intro and outro are. Comparatively quiet, but still rousing.🌌

The title of the upcoming episode suggests that next week we might meet the Scientist girls from the intro. I am very curious already.😍

BONAVU EVERYBODY✨🌠💖

Umika is too pure for this world. She’s so precious. This shows great, it gives me major asteroid in love vibes and that’s one of my favourite anime.

Water rocket bottles were a lot of fun to do back in school. I remember me an my friends won a competition of who could launch there bottle the furthest and our one went over the school into god knows where, sweet memories.

I knew that bottle would go into the ocean when they launched it.

The adaptation is really, really good. I'm so happy that all of the feelings the manga provided have translated so well into the anime. I'm really looking forward to what lies ahead. I like what they have done with Haruno's character. Particularly, with her dramatic lines this episode. It made me smile. I didn't imagine them that way while reading. So good!

My dog, who I've had since I was 8y/0 (13 years ago), died today, and none of my comfort shows or movies managed to pick up my mood, but then I clicked on this episode and I finally managed to smile a little. This show is so incredibly sweet and wholesome and adorable and only 2 episodes in I'm already very thankful that it exists. I hope it brings smiles to many more people in the future, just how it managed to help me out a bit today.

the cuteness makes my stress go away. Really comfy show.

ok, they are now friends with vice president Haruno, thankfully she's a nice person.

Yuu can drink so much! lol

well, they obviously can't build a real rocket that goes to space. But this plastic bottle rocket is enough to bring some smiles and improve the friendships.

And yet I can't help but have a bad feeling about Yuu in particular. Her amnesia and her believing to be an alien, as well as that impossible dream of theirs to go to space. Don't feel like this can have a happy ending -_-.

I think that Umika is getting a little less shy this episode. I have a feeling that Yu will want to stay on Earth and learn more about Umika and, most recently, learn more about Haruno Takaragi since Yu is an alien living on planet Earth.

Hmmm... I liked episode 1 more, it had more yuri vibes to it, but this one, not as much.
I dont feel the characters much right now, outside the art style selling me how adorable Umika is, so I got to watch this thinking the yuri would carry me through, but after this episode, I have my doubts if I will see a lot of yuri, or mostly just baiting.

Awwww Umika is SO adorable man she’s literally 100x more timid and shy than Bocchi bc while bocchi is shy she can talk to others but Umika is too shy to talk I want to protect her😭😭

that men in black reference made me giggle I was thinking “wait a minute…IS THAT WILL SMITH?!”🤣🤣🤣

Lastly I love the art in this anime everything looks so vibrant and crisp and the animation is amazing as well the rocket launch was well animated🔥🔥🔥
