Hina has very good taste in food because I too love salmon roe.

"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.

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.

It's a really good movie.

I wish this anime was about the pure, dumb, but always well meaning Anzu and less about her dumb and selfish friend Hina

Hitomi needs to take a page from Hina and not give a gently caress sometimes.

The only problem with watching Tokyo Godfathers right now is that it's also probably one of the best Christmas movies ever made, and May is way too early for watching those.

Solution: Watch it again in Christmas.
