Another great episode! I really liked some of the tomboyish atmosphere going on.

Naru is also awesome. Welp, did she just leave her handprint on that boat? LOL. What a silly girl. I love the way they depict the comedy of the series in its most charming form.

Handa was out of luck in this episode. First his PC wouldn't boot, then his phone broke down. Quite unfortunate. His allergy to cats was also added to the equation.

In the meantime, he doesn't even know how to use old style analogue phones. Akki, Hina and Naru were quite amused by that. The bubblegum scene was also entertaining.

He then bumped into Miwa's father, who's supposedly a "gangster", lol. I know the feeling when you can't mess up on your first try. Though Handa should have disposed those planks he practiced on. In the end, that angered Miwa's father even further. Welp, that forced Handa to do some sprinting.

This such a good show to watch! I also have an allergy to cats which is quite ironic since I am one!

I could seriously watch this show all day.

Handa has so much bad luck, it looked like he loves cats a lot until he found out that he is allergic. He was too nervous when painting that boat, I think he needs to chill out a bit and have fun. Great episode as always.

Great ep once again ^^

Damn! What bad luck XD Losing all his technology in one moment XD

Didn't expect Handa to be a cat lover XD But he has an allergy XD

Asking Akki if he's Tama's clone was lol XD

The moment he couldn't use the phone with Naru and Hina laughing at him was pure hilarious XD

The boards with his rants about Yakuza dad were hilarious XD

Naru putting her hand print was so lol. This girl is so kawaii <3

of god this show is terrible

pointless scenes that add nothing to the show, introducing characters that have never been mentioned to solve the "problem of the week", forced relationships and dialogue, bad pacing

3/10 and that's being generous

nice episode, nice moral value too

wooaaaahh another side of "sensei", didn't expect he would love cats, and never expect he have allergy too hahahaha

that's one scary dad, i wonder someone's girlfriend have a dad like that, when it's time to meet her father o.0

and what's that name of the boat? "i'm the god"? haha LOL

Nice episode,
Poor Handa, just when he found something he likes and turns out that he is allergic to cats.
Miwa's Dad was hilarious.
LOL @Naru and all the other kids putting their handprints on the boat.

I think that scene with cats was more heartwarming in the manga.

Don't remember that part with Miwa's dad from manga, but maybe that's from the further chapters that are yet to be translated?

But still, very nice and refreshing episode.

Me too

Okay, one thing, did no one else think Handa's writing of the boat's name was pretty ugly? -_-... I could barely recognise the Kanji xp

Anyways, as usual, loved the comedy. So many hilarious scenes. Sensei going all soft with the cats, Miwa's dad and his naming sense, Sensei's cluelessness with old phones and his cheezy dialogue... the one that really made me literally LOL was Naru putting her handprint on the hull hahaha... he was just so nervous and was thinking so hard for sooooo long and then bam! She just did the thing he couldnt do just like that
The most annoying thing about some anime is that they don't know when they've died...

Not as funny as the previous episode. Handa lost all his technology in one moment.

I never expected that Handa is a cat-lover, but it is too bad for he since he is allergy to cats.

Me too. Such a nice funny anime.
Really enjoyed this episode as well. It's such a feel good show that I find it hard to dislike. And if you do dislike it, you're intentionally searching for things to dislike about it.
Lol at the old phone. I still know how to work one actually. Man technology changes things so quickly.

This is how this series should go on! It wasn't as weird as the last episode and it had some sense of accomplishment in it. Now put in some clever jokes and small truths about life and this series will be golden.

The cat scene was hilarious how it was suddenly grabbed like that!!!
The grab on the cat made it seem like a heroic feat!

Meeting Miwa's dad xD That name for a boat! Miwa being glad that her mom named her ^^

It was nice seeing Sensei able to enjoy his work right after the kids put their handprints on the boat. Those signs at the end.

"Right now I'm in total darkness...But I'll definitely find the light."

Naru and Hina was hilarious. Other kids got their exposure.
Akki seems like a good guy. He really looks like his sister.

Bad for him he can't handle cats.

Handa and Instructor thinking about what phrase to write for billboard.

Really is my weekly dose of happiness.

The kitties! XD I see myself in Handa in the cat scene, though my allergies are nowhere near as bad as his.

Handa trying to use the rotary phone and embarrassing himself in the process was hilarious. Reminds me of the time when I had one in my house. I guess it's confusing for those who have never used it lol.

Definitely liked the last part. Whenever I am faced with a new piece of paper and only a pen, I can't bring myself to draw on it right away because I immediately see failure. I'm glad that Naru and the kids were able to make the task less daunting with their antics ^^

Me too! I love this show. Its so sweet and charming. Really cute.

This episode was just funny. When they show Handa's love for cats, it reminded me a lot of Sebastian's love for cats (of course, it could be because they have the same voice actor). I would be pretty sad if I was allergic to cats, since I love them so much though.

Looking forward to the next episode ^^

As a bonus, I finally found the appropriate image to describe anime or overly moe characters that "pull on my heartstrings"

The kids were awesome lol. So cute. The reason why Handa's kanji is "messy" is because it belongs to a different style of calligraphy. This style of calligraphy suits him more than his rigid textbook calligraphy I think :)

"Litter here and all the crayfish will go away" Naru's warning was the best <3

I LOVED this episode! Yay Kitties! If I were allergic to cats I would be devastated though ;_; I can sympathize with Sensei!

I really like how this anime is unfolding. When Sensei yells at the kids it seems more and more like he enjoys spending time and joking around with them instead of actually getting angry.
