AnacondaHL posted:The focus on the bowls of ikura in the OP is incredible. Like does she actually fall asleep with a bowl next to her lmao I love it, especially because it keeps the manga theme where every volume's cover has ikura on it in various forms.

Today's episode was another triumph, in which: Being Anzu is suffering, because she is such a good girl (and also because of Utako). Being Hitomi is suffering with a decent paycheck, because she is such a good girl (and also because of Utako). Being Hina is surprisingly easy, despite her being a little poo poo.

Both of this episode's segments were hilarious. All of the characters bounce off each other in such a great way, and the VAs knocked it out of the park (especially Hitomi's). I think Hina's part in the TV gag was one of the first jokes that had me in tears when reading the manga so I'm really glad they nailed it.

Lumberjack Bonanza posted:anzowns "How much does this feast cost?" Oh gosh that's heartbreaking. What a great episode. I laughed at the drunk Nitta family and poor dumb Hina doing her best (ju-san sai deeeees~), and then I cried along with Anzu for the homeless dudes. I can't remember seeing much (or any) portrayal of Japan's homeless in other manga or anime, but I really like the Hinamatsuri author's very human and sympathetic take on their characters.

Xelkelvos posted:Tokyo Godfathers is pretty much the one I'd point to for a decent portrayal of Japanese homeless people. That's been on my "to watch" list for ages, so thanks for the reminder. I'm gonna make time to watch it this weekend.

drat that's a fun episode. I knew they had to get to Cast Away with Mao soon, but I was losing hope for the amazing yakuza chapters getting adapted. I'm very pleased, they pulled off all the jokes perfectly.

Another amazing episode, and the title previewed for next week has me jumping for joy. Hitomi is the best. I'm sad that this season won't have time to adapt the Best Hitomi Chapter, but hopeful that we'll get a second season that includes it.

That was a great way to wrap up the season. I love that Nitta's flashback montage of the times he spent with Hina included a blip of Anzu. I guess season 2 will be entirely after the time skip? It's a shame that we won't get some excellent bits like (early manga)the hostage situation at the school where everyone eats lunch with the gunman and Hitomi's Florida Vacation unless it's in an OVA or something, but I'm mostly pumped that they set up the inevitability of there being a: Sindai posted:Season 2

MJP posted:So where in the manga does the anime leave off? I don't wanna wait for season 2, I wanna get in on the Hina train while it's still running. The anime jumped all over the place, for instance it adapted chapter 38 in episode 8, chapter 36 in episode 9, and chapter 32 in episode 11. The last chapter that the anime adapted was chapter 47 where Mao and the Rocksion dude meet, but if you started there in the manga you would be missing a whole lot of hilarious chapters that the anime skipped. In other words: Meme Emulator posted:Read it all.
