Oh.. it's not gonna be 44 mins.. Bummer. Sadly, this episode pretty much confirmed that this show is not gonna be what I hoped it would be. I wished this would be a more serious show about life and the relationship between Sana and the old man, but as it turns out it'll be more of a silly comedy thing. Oh well :(

It's not bad though, so I will continue to watch it. I liked the OP.
It's only a passing thing, this shadow. Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer.

Piglets are always delightful.

Sanae seems charming (and with a bit of a history), her laid-back attitude is sublime. The post-credits scene was slightly unsettling, though.

On another note, I'm starting to adore the background music. Slightly melancholic fairytale-like tunes fit the serious parts of the story well.

We now have the opening, and it was pretty good. And the girls goof around with pigs for a bit and just have fun while being pretty cute. And we got a little more backstory into Sana. All in all, this was a nice episode.

Great episode I think this show is really shaping up already after it's longer pilot episode which was just as good. I like the OP but I think I really like the ED a bit better but they're both nice songs. I was wondering about the granddaughter I was almost thinking she might be dead but she's alive and her parents are dead. It will be nice to see how she and her grandpa get along and relate as he probably raised her for a bit.

Interesting story into Sana's time in the facility and her relationship with the others. Starting to think the mysterious boy is the monstrosity they created. Can't wait to see where this will go. This kind of reminds me of Elfen Lied minus the gore and horror violence with a little bit of Flip Flappers (unless that's just TO-MAS' score doing that).

Enjoyed this episode a whole lot more than the first one.
OP and ED were amazing, as well.

The way Sanae treats Sana was too cute ;-; And Zouroko was great as always.
Can't wait for next episode!

I didn't enjoy it as much as the first ep, but it was still a good watch.

It was a very cute episode, and I'm intrigued by the gory flashback.

Hoping for a bit more action next week!

So far I think this show is pretty solid. Good character relationships, down to earth grandpa, girl learning about the world. I think that it has a recipe to be a pretty solid SoL.
The negative is that I'm seeing more hints of battle, which I don't think this show needs, it'll actually take away from the show if it starts to focus on the battle aspects.

I really hope they just continue with the SoL aspect of the show and if it does it has the potential of being a solid show this season, which this season seems to lack.

It might still be, this episode is pretty light-hearted honestly, but we'll see.

It was OK.

Good episode!
Alice really warmed-up quickly to Zouroku's granddaughter Sanae!
LOL so many pigs instantly BUTA!
Even the humongous pancake is from Alice also!
If Alice really accepts and appreciates the peacefulness that she is currently experiencing she'll gonna do what it takes to protect the Kashimura family!
Sanae is so lucky to be able to go to different places in the world even for just a very short time! Alice teleportation skills it top class!
The last part of this episode was a mess! hahaha lolz! very fun!
5/5.

I really want pancakes now. 🥞 lol
This episode was cute. & I love little piggies.
The OP & ED are both amazing. I like the ED a little more though.
I'm a little worried when Sana said she "didn't mean" to warp them falling from the sky. Like she can't control her powers. That's not good aha.
& damn, Sanae has the patience of a saint.

Funny episode

Sana is like little mischievous child that just want to play
she's so pure

Sanae seems like a good girl
I really liked her voice
I'm watching anime since 2012. I also play games, sometimes.

Don't bother me if you want to 'become friends' or things like that.
It's tiresome. I know you just want to collect some meaningless numbers.

I like the lighthearted, SoL elements.

I'm curious what inhumane experiments they're doing in that facility.

I like this episode, really chill and laidback! Got to develop the "sister relationship" with Sanae and Sana... or some may say Sanae's like the older sister taking care of the younger sister.

Fun to theorize, (even though all the episodes are out for the season), what if the death of Sanae's parents were involved with a person who had special powers (or possibly involving that "deadly person" at the facilities?)?

Haha, fun thought that came up ^^ :P

Anywho, I hope Sanae's not really the typical "airhead/dense" girl (cuz that was my initial thought) ~ so far she is really likable and makes me want to "root" for her!

Oh wow this episode had a magnificent pacing! Really amazed about that pacing I must say, and so lovely development! Really loving this series already!!!

Together with a nice surprise of having the Oresama OP! Really great choice of song as well as I can't get enough of that ED either!

Really loving this series, so looking forward to see what's next.

That was adorable. Sanae and Sana were so cute together. They are getting along so well.

Those pigs and the gigantic pancake. xD

Sana's backstory was so sad and I'm sure there will be even more shocking reveals later to become.
