    I re-read the first couple chapters of the manga. The anime jumps around a little bit but it really worked for the show. Will be interesting to see how they handle the next little bit given that they took snippets from the next couple chapters and added it to the first episode

    Goddamn this show is good. That kid is borderline Yotsuba, and that's awesome.

    Latest episode was all sorts of hilarious. And the feels toward the end hit me right in the gut.

    I posted in the Summer thread, forgot about this one. But yeah, the episode was phenomenal, easily the best one of this show yet. The entire second half of the episode, as bits and bits of info being revealed here and there, hilarious comedic moments that just turned more and more emotional as they progressed. And the first half was great too. Just funny all the way through with a great pay-off at the end

    Got bored and rewatched the latest episode. I noticed this bit at the beginning of the second half

    Spoiler: show




    Now, given what happens in the episode, I think you can figure out the debatable significance of this moment.

    Spoiler: show
    Being that the whole "not watching them and they'd still grow" is a metaphor for Naru, and the "I dunno who planted these" being either her grandmother or even her parents.


    Just a small tidbit I didn't notice during my first watch of the episode

    Edit: Just got to the end. Totally missed this the first time around:

    Spoiler: show


    Full circle episode goes full circle.
