The business about the key is authentic. I grew up in the country and while there were latches on the inside, there was no way to lock the house up from the outside. We also left the cars parked in the drive with the keys in the ignition.

I can back this. While not the country per se, I grew up in a really small town and locking doors and cars wasn't something that was done. As a kid I distinctly remember visiting family in the city and thinking it odd that they went out of their way to lock everything. Thinking on it now, as an adult...I kind of miss those days. |

That live-action film is based on the well-known manga Tennen Kokekkō by veteran mangaka Kuramochi Fusako. According to the home video company's site, the Japanese Region A Blu-ray Disc of the film has English subtitles. http://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/B0086TJSY6/ http://www.tc-ent.co.jp/products/detail.php?product_id=1827 |

Hotaru is simply adorable. I loved the 2nd half of the episode. Komari's "adult" clothes actually made her seem like a kid, while Hotaru's adult clothes completely fooled Komari. I was hoping Komari would find out that it was actually Hotaru.

I have never been so hyped to see a character go on a journey to the spoiler[candy store] before.

How did Komari not cotton on to who she was really hanging out with? Honestly.
The way that Komari was treated by Komari in this episode reminded me slightly of how Popura was treated in Working!!/Wagnaria. Interesting to note that they're both voiced by the same person, Kana Asumi. |

@ hyojodoji - thank you very much for that information! I'm delighted to hear the BD has English subs. The movie isn't all that expensive on Amazon.jp, either. Very tempting...
eta: Order placed. Shipping is almost as much as the movie itself, but oh well. Anyway, cute episode. Didn't expect things to take a spoiler[yuri-tinged] turn, but there you go. |

Hotaru is building quite the obsession with Koma-chan (forgot her real name). I didn't expect this kind of relationship to bud between them. I wonder if it'll go anywhere.
This show is still so 'lax. I love it. I can just chill out and enjoy the atmosphere. The scenery and setting reminds me of being a kid and exploring in the woods, taking whatever paths are available and visiting the one store we had in town. A little bit of nostalgia mixed into a real relaxing experience makes for a great show to wrap the day on. Like I say, I hope it keeps not only this chill mood, but also simple storylines. |

Do liquor stores count as candy stores? If not, then I've never been to a candy store either
Anyway, I'm glad they finally explained who the random guy was lol it was bothering me during the entire first episode, but I'm glad to see he is spoiler[the older brother (9th grader) of Komari and Natsumi]. I thought that was a nice touch. I can't expect romances in cute shows like this, but I wouldn't mind a thing between him and Hotaru. The yuri is ok, I guess, but I can see it getting annoying real quick |

Episode 2
Again so cute, this is really relaxing. Seems like the entire school is almost just spoiler[two families], the three elder students are spoiler[siblings and the youngest is the teacher's sister]. And possible yuri too, definitely reminds me of Kiniro Mosaic. Komari's voice is perfect for the exceptionally short senpai character. |

That is not yuri, that is hero worship. Come on, we are talking about a fifth grader here. I doubt she would even understand the concept.

I'm not gonna comment on whether it's yuri or just adoration, but I'm gonna point out that being an EXCEPTIONALLY MATURE 5th grader doesn't mean there can't be romantic feelings involved.
I mean it's anime. Even underdeveloped 1st graders know the concept on occasions. |

@ Alan45 - well, I personally used the term yuri-tinged as opposed to outright yuri... I think Hotaru has a platonic crush on her sempai. It's not really hero worship - she just thinks Komari is really small and cute. If anything, Komari hero worships spoiler[the "adult" version of Hotaru (not that she knows that's Hotaru, of course.)]

I'm OK with the phrase Platonic Crush. I don't think it is only Komari's cuteness (though that may be part of it). I think she is actually aware that Komari is an older individual. I should note that a more mature appearance does not mean that there is associated emotional maturity.
My take is that this show is about kids being kids. I may be wrong but we will have to have more episodes to find out. I grew up in a couple of areas like that. Mostly dairy farms though. No rice paddies just hay and corn to feed the cows. No other kids within a half mile and no stores within walking or reasonable bicycle distance. |
