I miss this show. Was great to see them back, even though it's only 4 minutes.
Really cute, DAIKICHI BE USING DEM GROWN UP SKILLS!
I actually laughed when I saw Rin's reaction to the acorn. It was hilarious.
Good special to just see them again.

It was so cute.. * A * And Rins idea of making fishes was actually pretty fun, never thought of anything like that teehee~
Loved it, like people already said, I miss the show too. Was one of my favourites when it was aired.

The atmosphere and the music. So relaxing.

I would really love to do some leaf aquarium with my future kid someday.

Oh wow. Reminds me just how utterly brilliant the main series was. I knew I made Rin one of my favourite (yes, that's how you spell it in Australia) characters for a reason.

Such a nice special and so many things nice about it despite being short. Form the very start I laughed upon seeing Daikichi here all sleepy. Guess Rin gave him trouble during the night. Loved seeing how Daikichi is surprised of the fish/leaf that Rin made. It looks good too. In fact Rin just being cute here showing Daikichi that she even made with a leaf an octopus was quite adorable despite the leaf not matching well with the octopus. What really made me happy is Rin’s face along with Daikichi giving her the book he got her in the spoiler
it also serves as reminder that Rin is evolving into liking marine life. A first towards marine biology. Lovely gathering of Rin and Daikichi playing with the leaves here and of course of all the leaves this one here is agreeable it does look a lot like a fish. Which was really fun to look at.

However the most of Rin’s face is the following,

Rin pouting! She is pouting! ROFL! :D Of course Daikichi always has tricks up his sleeve of declaring being innocent in cheating by using scissors to cut the leaf. Yeah right! Rin is not that stupid! Well I was not sure and forgot that acorns upon having holes here actually have bugs in them. Ecology 101 was forgotten sometime. Rin’s face in the spoiler
at that time was priceless from how she was surprised.

The other good thing was Haruko in the following,

It was so nice to see her! Reina’s plushy in the spoiler
was totally adorable! Reminded me a little of Mayo Chiki. That sheep!

Finally Rin’s face along with her art works in the spoiler
of the ”Aquarium Leaves” was splendid! Very nice and impressive for a kid like her. Takes after the mother after all. Looking forward to the next special!

Rin was really cute! Really lightened my feelings after I watched the anime because I had found out what had happened at the end of the manga..

When she was drawing on the leaves I was reminded of an episode of Rugrats. I was so surprised, really brought back childhood memories of Rugrats and that I had done that myself :)

Does anyone know when the other ones come out?

The voice is good too. They actually got a little kid to voice it. Probably why they couldn't make the anime longer and include the other half after the time lapse.

"It's not cheating, it's called adult ingenuity." That leaf collecting idea actually looks pretty fun and I remember collecting some sticks and leaves when I was younger.
