EPISODE REVIEWS

The pacing was just too slow, and Ritsuko together with Hirooka just kept dragging on for long to finally say it until the ending. The animation with the masks was quite repetitive, too. But what was more interesting to see was some familiar and remarkable characters and visuals were cameos in this ep too. I thought that Dept Manager was Doumoto right on that train track. With the crab shabu, Hoppy the rabbit, and Atchara, the ep became interesting to watch and was anticipating who would pass by.

Another well-written episode. Ritsuko and Hirooka find themselves in a predicament after Hisooka's boss—and eventually the rest of the neighborhood—mistake the area in front of their house for a garbage dump. Their hope for Hisooka's promotion only makes it harder for them to speak up, turning the situation into a series of hilarious misunderstandings. It starts off as pure comedy but gradually reveals the emotional weight of being too much of a people-pleaser.

OMG!! Familiar characters from one of my favourite episode! I like how makers connected teh characters really well even though it's an anthology series (may be that's the advantage!?). It was classic example of nuisance yet you need to tolerate from your neighbour because of some certain things! Was glad see other side of Bucho-san!!
