| Well, glad that Shii is alright in the end.. She easily could have gotten pneumonia back there.. |
| So if you're ever in an accident, do not call Koguma for help. I was really surprised by her behavior in this episode. Her friend almost dies of hypothermia and could have had other injuries and she didn't seem very concerned at all, more annoyed than anything. Hospital? Nah, you're fine. Just go take a bath. Then she puts her in the bike's front basket to take her home, with her wet clothes in that freezing wind. It's like if the crash and icy water doesn't kill you, Koguma will. |
| Lmao good thing this is anime cause Shii for sure would've been dead if not. Or maybe it was the power of product placement that saved her. |
| Good to see that Shii is doing fine even if her body temperature goes near zero degrees. |
| Vivaldi in a bike show? I am intrigued but confused. |
 |
| Wow this episode is something else. Good thing it's like the Dead Space 3 prologue where you die if your body temp drops to actual 0°C and not thirty-something. Btw if someone couldn't even get out of the cold water stream by themself, i would be slightly more concened, not just because of the cold. As for the bicycle, those things go for like 2 grand, so i'm pretty sure they would just get it fixed. |
| Always, always, always...call for an ambulance. In the USA that means dial 911. Shii-chan is lucky to have survived without any permanent injury. I can't believe Koguma said there was nothing left to buy for their Cubs! She didn't think about a passenger seat for poor Shii-chan. |
Romax24245 said: I went back and read chapter 25 in the manga, and you are correct that it comes off better in the manga. The manga gives more detail about the girls' thoughts and motivations, why they didn't call for an ambulance, although if Koguma had been thinking clearly she would have immediately called Shii's parents and/or an ambulance. I also admit that my 16 year old self would have been just as foolish and probably would have done exactly as did Koguma. So the action in the manga is consistent with the behavior of teenagers. Words cannot describe how badly this rescue scene was botched in the anime’s part. I haven’t seen the source material’s version of this scene, but I did read the manga rendition, and the way it’s handled is significantly different. I won’t spoil anything, but long story short, Koguma in the manga was nowhere near as careless and inconsiderate as her anime counterpart was shown to be. I'm reading the light novel now, when I can find translations in English. But I plan to watch the anime and read the manga again. Despite any flaws in its adaptation, Super Cub has become an all time favorite for me. |
| I can understand not knowing about how to heat up someone (remove wet clothes etc.) but not calling at least her parents / the restaurant, or some help... and even worst, putting her IN FRONT OF HER CUB, which is super cold and VERY DANGEROUS if you fall, and she almost fell when she slipped on the ice just before saving her... it's... woaw. This iyashikei-ish anime is ruined by this stupid scene. |
| That slap was hilarious lmao. Everything is wrong with that rescue well atleast that ending is really good. |
| In this episode: We find out that a fatherless home may cause kids to grow up with unstable and erratic behaviours, but a fatherless + motherless home will definetly turn you into a freaking sociopath. Young lady goes beyond autistic when rescuing a fellow teen and makes every single worst decision possible. It is actually a miracle that the kid survived. How can you take your sweet time to take a person out of a river... during the night... in the goddamn winter? Poor girl was there for so long she absolutely had to be suffering for hypothermia. Also, since she couldn't stand up from the water by herself, she probably had something broken or maybe even a concussion. No matter, thought, her rescuer make her climb the riverbank by herself (!!), and then just stands there making a call while the girl is still wearing wet clothes. And finally, the cherry on top, the girl is put in a goddamn basket in the * front * of the moped so she can be the extra wind shield, riding home with wet clothes taking the wind right in the face and body. All that would need at least one month of intensive care for her to recover lmao. |
 |
| The fact that Koguma almost crashed herself while looking for Shii and still decided to put Shii in the basket and drive back home. So much gone wrong this episode. |
 |
| Koguma taking care of Shii, so kind. |
| I'm glad that the majority of us can agree with the fact that this episode was DUMB AF! |
