I love this show so much. It and Shirayuki are my two favorites of the season, and with them both coming on Monday night I actually looked forward to the week beginning. I really hope Non Non Biyori comes back again and again to treat us to a little peace once a week.

I never had my sister hit me repeatedly in the collarbone, and I would have kicked her butt if she had tried that.

That said, this was a wonderful series, and it rightfully ended up way up in the polls throughout its run. Next time I'm in Japan I might try to look up some of the locations.


Does that not prove my point? Physical horseplay is just how siblings interact. Renge striking her sister's collarbone is just as innocent as you 'kicking your sister's butt', surely? Pretty clear there was no actual harm involved.

I'd love to go anywhere remotely as idyllic as the scenes shown in NNB. ^^

The Renge vs. Hikage "Sosuner" scene was funny and some rough play between siblings is realistic, but, if I have one objection to that scene, it would be that it just felt a bit too over-the-top cartoonish compared to the rest of the series.

If it was a series that regularly features that kind of exaggerated physical comedy like Himouto Umaru-chan, I wouldn't have batted an eyelid, but Non Non Biyori is generally a very down-to-Earth kind of slice-of-life show and Renge demonstrating her Sosun moves felt like a scene from a different series.
