LOL, this episode. Akari is fun to watch in this series. I mean, her trickster personality just adds surprsies.. Dat mushroom and fujoshi~

Eh some of the food this episode looked awkward. I'm not a fan of mushrooms or eggs anyways. Oh well, at least the girls looks cute in their yukata.

The last one, who is a female, showed up. Business talk, and she's good at persuasion. Wow @ the CM. The egg got popular, then megane guy got out halfway. Eating yakiniku together, and announced that the selling has transferred to the company. Next is the tree that grows mushrooms.

Tanabata time, to make wishes.

Not enough Ringo this episode. Becky-sensei's wishes were lulz though XD

Also, I have a strange desire to feed on moe-eggs now O.O

Actually the mushrooms were a logical tie-in for the female market, since they already have a certain risque connection in some people's minds to the male equipment. Think of the culture log as the equivalent of a chia pet for bl fans. At 26 pounds per capita per year Japan is apparently the world's top mushroom consuming nation so there might well be a market for that.

Moe eggs and fujoshi mushrooms,what stupid weird marketing tactics.

I'll admit the goat scene was kinda funny.

Otherwise everything else was boring/terrible as usual.

I'm wondering if the goat was a reference to Nichijou.

I really liked their self-awareness of the moe industry and how they parodied it with their moe-eggs business. Also BL is <3

Probably one of my favorites of the season.

Never new their "Moe Eggs" business became really popular XD. Now they are selling something explicit for some Yaoi advertisement mushroom crap XD, well until they got suspended.

Kanegami is a likable character so far, I hope she gets more screen time in later episodes. Oh yeah Kei riding a goat XD.

I just found the most interesting character on this show yet. Kanegami.
Too bad the episode was boring. I doubt that this is just a filler episode, but I can't see any impact this episode might contribute in the future.

And please, gimme my romance already -____-

Kanegami would make a great entrepreneur in future. Persuading people like a pro. She's actually a better character than I thought.

Kei was cool this episode. That goat riding was hilarious!

Bekki's wishes.. XD

I don't get the low scores of this episode at all, I think this was one of the best episodes of this anime so far, if not the best. Kanegami was great, I found her to be quite original. The whole series is underrated imo. Oh, and I love the art and the ending song.

I was so confused as to Kanegami's gender until about 15 minutes in when she started talking about yaoi and I was like "but a guy wouldn't suggest that right?!" and then I went back to the beginning and realised they referred to her as HER lol.

Highlight of the episode was that guy (can't remember names very well) randomly riding the goat xD

Good episode 4/5.

Great episode.

Is it just me, but I find Nourin really soothing. It gives away moral values(or s'thing like that) on every episode.

EDIT: Well, not every episode but some of it. Really wise one.

Wouldn't mind grabbing Kanegami's other goods as well ;P

The mix with Anime/Manga with agriculture business was interesting
Kanegami's line about the school being a No Risk enviroment was insightful

Spotted Kei on a goat like Sasahara in "Nichijou" as a reference

There wasn't sufficient good comedy overall, but the educational stuff was good enough

Just my imagination but the reason Ringo didn't stand out in this episode is she was rather reluctant to take part in selling the egg as moe item.
Since she was a pop idol, she knew those sort of marketing could result in an arguable issue. Possibly, some customers would buy it just to get the package with the picture and wouldn't eat the egg. It was years ago, a snack maker in Japan sold children their goods with picture cards of popular characters. It was a great success and the kids bought more than they could eat; what they really wanted were the card. The snack, which was useless to them, was just dumped.
Generally, people think wasting foods is immoral and leading children to do so is even more educationally problematic. Having their business idea criticized, food industry in Japan became careful with giveaways, which shouldn't be more *important* to the customers than the food itself.
As for music industries, you can see unopened compact disks on Japanese auction sites now. Some companies sell compact disks with a thicket for a handshake event with the pop idol. Faithful followers happily buy them to get the thickets and sell the disks again and again.
I guess Ringo knew how the marketing way worked and felt uneasy with the possible aftermath.

By far the best episode so far. I've always liked it when they focus on the educational side of the show and yet people never mentioned this kind of thing (and sadly even found this episode boring). If anything I find that this show's greatest strength is its tidbits of information about the agricultural world instead of the lame and cheesy jokes.

Maybe I'm looking at it from an older person's point of view (yeah I'm not a teenager anymore) but I believe there are many things that the younger audience can learn from this episode. Kanegami's explanation about building connections, how she makes money exactly because there are more important things than money, her insight on targeting specific customer base, her hit-and-run business strategy, etc were all very valuable advices and information that should be taken note of.

Kei riding the goat was the funniest part of the episode, he needs to ride the goat more. I was a little bit more uneasy this episode than I was before, so I'm not a fan of it. I could handle the Moe Eggs a little bit, but even that was going out-of-control.

But yeah, I'm even more convinced Yukari Tamura is basically everywhere these days. Good for her, she's a great voice actress.
