| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- School life and everything in this show feels so real. We got a school festival going on too with the bright mood. So glad to see Koguma being more open to her friends and being more confident in herself. |
 |
| They prepare for the school festival, Reiko and Koguma with their cub are very helpful. New character, Shii, she's pretty cute. |
 |
| yet another really nice and chill episode, lots of nice places driving around and stuff and that classmate girl was so cute too that smile is way too adorable... |
Goodness! Shii is so small. Despite a teenager girl, she can be easily mistaken for a little girl from elementary school because of her height of 1.40cm. |

| The girls being really helpful towards their classmates it was nice to watch. And the season of cold weather driving has arrived for them, driving a motorcycle in cold weather is much colder than driving a bicycle it gets really cold if you are not wearing the right clothing. You can get lot's of things to keep you warm on a motorcycle and you really need them, i usually keep on driving during the winter but ones i wasn't wearing motorcycle jeans my legs got so cold that i kept feeling it the rest of the day even tho i drove in the morning and was inside the rest of the day. Good gloves is also recommended and heated grips is a really nice option for the winter. |
| Eeehey the new girl finally enters the fray ... and God shes a tiny little human isnt she lol. |
 |
| Now it's winter it's cold, they helped the school festival with their cubs that was great, and the new small girl that gave them coffee is cute xD |
 |
| Reiko's charging in with her new Hunter Cub CT110, which depletes most of her savings, but it's a worthy investment in the long run. The usual school culture festival, and a new girl: the shortie Shii-chan. But taking care of the Cub comes first as usual for both Reiko and Koguma, preparing for the change of seasons from seasonal Cub mods to their own vehicular safety gear. The purpose of utilizing their Cubs in an useful situation like this, it looks kinda lame, but it seems every bit as practical. Going to the school where Koguma did her part-time job to do their homeroom teacher's job, that's a delivery job right there. It'd be great if Shii-chan can ride a Cub (since she's the confirmed 3rd central girl), but for now, she'll stick to her trusty bicycle until she can get a chance to do so. Beautiful episode for the feels. |
 |
| Autumn's here and it has started to get chilly. I love that Koguma is keeping a check on Reiko so she won't waste money on unnecessary things. That's adorable. They've really become close friends. A new girl is here who's the third main character of the show, Eniwa Shii. She looks just like Koguma by her appearance but much more frank with others and is of a really sweet nature. Reiko and Koguma helped in bringing the stuff from another school as well. Great going with this show. |
 |
| I love those autumn vibes. It's my favorite season of the year besides winter. Everyone is preparing for the school festival. Nice. That new girl, Shii, is so cute and tiny! ^^ |

| Reiko looked like a giant compared to Shii lmao. She's so tiny and precious. Almost thought they weren't going to help for a moment, and just focused on driving their cubs and getting new gear. But nope. |
| Are you sure Koguma and Shii is not related to each other? They looked almost the same what the hell? |
| The new girl, Shii, is so cute and so tiny. She is even smaller than Koguma. Don't underestimate Cub, Cub can do almost everything including transport a bunch of goods. |
何それ？意味分かんない  |
| So, they just coincidentally happen to own a whole cart and some ridiculous contraption that allows to transport fragile loads, along with all the hardware needed to correctly mount them on their bikes? How convenient. Koguma's rant at the end made me cringe hard. Bikes aren't sentient beings, it depends on how they were built, their parts conditions and the skill of the rider. Not some BS about a cub not wanting to be ridden. |

| Erik Satie's 'Gymnopédie No.1' at the beginning was literally perfect for the general mood in this episode. Shii is 100% moe. |
| Dub = fake crap. Always. |
| Chill episode, preparing for the school festivals with the cub's. |
   “You yourself have to change first, or nothing will change for you!” ' |
| Hot take: I'm not fan of current Koguma as for now. Someone or something need to teach her a lesson. |
| Another wholesome Episode |
| The main plot was pretty silly and far-fetched this time around tbh. The out-of-nowhere laughs of Koguma's "cut the crap" arm grab when they were out buying gloves was the highlight. |
| The last girl is finally here! and oh boi! is she freaking smol! lets hope that she is just genetically very smol and will grow up.. and this isn't a common height in japan.. |
| ka-bu delivery service. I'm not sure why they didn't just buy new work gloves at the store when they were there. It might take a few episodes to do a proper research.. |
| Reiko's new Hunter Cub CT110 looks pretty nice. I hope she looks after it well this time. I also liked how Koguma made sure that Reiko didn't get carried away looking at stuff she doesn't need while in the automotive shop. XD Both girls played a helpful role in this episode which focused on the preparation for their school's culture festival. Eniwa Shii gets her full introduction here and she's really small for her age. Either way, she and the others were in a panic after a teacher, who promised to help them with the equipment needed for their Italian cafe, had urgent plans. Thankfully, Koguma wanted to help and Reiko helped as well, with adapting their cubs to carry the equipment needed to carry fragile items from the school in Kofu to their own school. Reiko's role was tougher since she had to tow a trailer, but she handled it like a pro. No reckless driving here this time! =P Shii really shown her appreciation to Koguma and Reiko and praised their Cubs, too. Her smile at the end of the episode was really cute. =3 I do look forward to seeing more of Shii next week. |
| Looks like we have the culture festival ep and things end up going well thanks to Reiko and Koguma with there Cubs. Shii-chan is so cute oml. |
 |
| I still cant get it out of my head the fact that she has literally no family whatsoever |
 |
| Weakest episode by far. With an outsider around, our Cub duo's oddness is quite obvious. What a strange exchange at the end, unnecessarily smug and condescending. |
| Shii's really cute, new best girl? |
 |
| I love Reiko's new Cub. Looking slick. Damn, I didn't think that Shii was gonna be this tiny. She's so cute and adorable though! Cubs to the rescue for the Italian Bar. Best part of the episode was Koguma helping Reiko not getting distracted by products in the shop she doesn't need right now, that was pretty funny. |
 |
| That was so wholesome :) |
under”Mebius” is my salvation  |
| I was mildly interested in this at the start of the season, but it's really doing much for me, seven episodes in. A good slice of life is run by the characters and these ones are sh1t. Boring concept as well. Plus, the color palette isn't attractive. |
| NICE! Shii will finally join the group! She showed a lot of interest in bikes, but she will need to get over her fear first. I'm so happy to know that Koguma and Reiko managed to make the Festival work. This anime is very warmful and chilling, I really like it. |
 |
| did she just say 100 yen for a round trip? are gas prices really that cheap where they live? |
 |
| So we finally get a proper introduction to Shii after her background appearances last week. She's not on a Cub yet, but no doubt we'll get to see her on her bicycle at least fairly soon, as has been teased in the OP. That aside, it's good to see that Koguma and Reiko's friendship has progressed enough for Koguma to be comfortable taking cheeky jabs at Reiko and to make her focus on what they're actually looking for when they go to the shops. I found it funny that it was Koguma who told the teacher that old Cubs would be trouble and she should buy a new one when Koguma bought an old one with a dark reputation from the start. If Reiko had said it, I wouldn't have batted an eye, but it feels odd for Koguma to be the one saying that. Also, while her point was obviously more about safety, the way Koguma described the Cubs as sentient was so silly and tacky. |
| > People have problems Koguma: I sleep > Someone says the problems can't be solved with a motorbike Koguma: Listen here you little shit |
 |
| In this episode: "Your bikes are pretty cool, my granddad has one, maybe I'll ask him to let me have it" "NO YOU SHOULD TOTALLY BUY A BRAND NEW HONDA® CUB™ AT YOUR LOCAL DEALER" j/k but for real tho Kimurah said: How convenient. Well Reiko is a Cub fanatic so I am not surprised she has some outlandish special parts/accessories. Kimurah said: Koguma's rant at the end made me cringe hard. I'm pretty sure she was either joking or being sarcastic but she's so deadpan it doesn't translate well. |
syncrogazer said: Weakest episode by far. With an outsider around, our Cub duo's oddness is quite obvious. What a strange exchange at the end, unnecessarily smug and condescending. I know, right? I always thought Koguma was self-centred and overly proud of her "social outcast" label (not to mention way too attached to a goddamn motorbike), but the story's practically going out of its way to prove that. Reiko and Shii are way more likeable characters, imo. I absolutely do not need SoL characters to be cute or even nice (Reiko is neither), but Koguma just...leaves me utterly cold. |
| Another fantastic, wholesome and relaxing episode. We have finally been officially introduced to the third girl Shii-chan and boy is she smol like damn, she's so tiny, must protecc. Reiko's new hunter cub looks sick. I've said it before and I'll say it again, it's amazing how Koguma and Reiko's friendship naturally progresses. I really enjoyed their adventures this episode, and it was nice to see the sensei of that other school again. Koguma is starting to come out of her shell, I love it, she's so blunt lmao. Koguma and Reiko were exuding cool biker girls energy throughout the episode, out there sipping coffee in their bikes like badasses. I also really liked that metaphor Koguma said about riding bikes, if your afraid, naturally it'll affect how your ride. Like riding horses I suppose, they'll kick you out. Looks like we'll be seeing Shii-chan's place next episode, looking forward to it. Speaking of places, I like how Koguma probably visits Reiko's home often now, she should just live there lmao. |

| Autumn had arrived, and the winter will be incoming soon. The girls on the cub must be prepared themself much for those cold weather to avoid much problem by it. Koguma already think about that far before its happening, was a good respond. As expected from her, flat look, but always prepare for any possibility if its related to her cub. Reiko and her new hunter cub, looks cool af, ngl, especially with the messy gloves in her hands. The school held a culture festival, as always. Reiko unexpectedly already know about Shii and her family, even though they both seems not so close. The moment when they both reached out the close status with each other, moreover with Koguma, none other than because of the cub, of course. The boy in these show really annoying with their roles. The comment of one of them easily triggered Koguma in silence, and thats the beginning of their relationship. Koguma advised Shii about the backup plan really a good part. The way they modified the cub without anyone helping really a nice highlight too. Then, the last with the gasoline reimbursement. Good dialogue. Koguma become Shii role model of admiration. But Koguma herself also viewed her in a good way too. Hopefully Shii's wish to ride the cub can be granted. Can't wait to see their next interaction.... |

I've been thinking a little bit about the episode, and perhaps being into a new hobby (if you could call it that) has given her a feeling of superiority. Which seems believable to me, but the whole Shii thing was just weird. When she brings the coffee over they both look at her like 'lol who the fuck is this.' Not a vibe you would expect from a scene that in any other anime would be a lighthearted, friendship scene or whatever. I can give the anime credit for being different. It's almost like the characters were made to be a little unlikable on purpose. Reiko's ignoring Koguma's morning greetings probably should have clued me in earlier lol or it's just autism |

| This show might honestly be the biggest waste of my time out of all the currently airing stuff. Oh well. |
 |
| so they finally introduced the 3rd main girl Shii! so she's the one on the OP who has a bike that has small wheels huh...looks like that would be presented next ep! Koguma & Reiko was able to help Shii with regards to the school fes! nice! 5/5. |
 |
| Koguma's phrase about riding cubs seems to me to have heard it in a cowboy movie. I like the change of palettes to a warmer tone. Very interesting the thing that makes the ramen not spill, I will definitely investigate about them because where I live they are not used, or at least I have not seen. |
  Humans may have two eyes, but we can only see one thing Don't use the scores to see an anime ええい！ なんでも やって やる |
| I would protect Shii's smile with my life. She's so small and cute~ Also, not sure why but I found this episode extremely boring. Maybe I just wasn't in the right mood to enjoy it. Koguma describing Cubs as if they were wild horses was kinda cringey tho. @Kimurah Imagine taking the writing of standard iyashikei anime this seriously... |
