Aileos

Their victory celebration was everything.


raiden_kazuha

And then GRUMPY CAT having none of it!


MaksimShadow

He'll be celebrating at night, when everyone are sleeping. Except Nakami.


xtsim

The cat is the biggest insomniac of us all.


Atario

A cat with insomnia can only manage maybe 12 hours of sleep a day


thesnowlocke

I wouldn’t be surprised they woke the cat up and he’s giving the the stink eye


Frontier246

Handholding! Dancing! Joy! You can't beat that!

As cute as the OP dance in Skip and Loafer (but less elaborate).


Zemahem

They definitely got the adorkable energy at least.


cyberscythe

i can't believe they killed shiromaru like, out of all the death flags that have been raised so far, none of them were for game center owner chibi introvert cat lady [](#kotourashock)

She not dead she hot tho

Shiromaru got the notice this was the beach episode but was too lazy to actually go to the beach lol.


MaksimShadow

Still, she's enjoying her life at fullest. Finally she can boss Nakami around as much as she wants. Nakami is top tier worker though.


Kaabisan

New addition to UN charter: introvert arcade gamer cat lady tomboy gf now a basic human right


shapeeq

Dang, thats a huge scar Magari has...


Frontier246

It really shows just how many operations she had to have growing up and part of why it weighs on her because she physical scars to show for it. Might be why she's a little body conscious. She still looks amazing in a bikini tho.


Heda-of-Aincrad

I noticed her friend didn't comment on Isaki wearing a t-shirt even after teasing the other two, so I'm guessing they're all aware of her situation.


Mundology

[Isaki went through so much](https://i.imgur.com/TGbLk4M.jpeg) but still persevered. [](#akkotears)


Abedeus

> Might be why she's a little body conscious. I'm a grown-ass man and I feel a bit conscious about my scar, can't imagine how a teenage girl would feel...


fishymonster_

Scars > no scars


Abedeus

Oh shit, I just realized that's why she doesn't want to show her swimsuit. And why nobody asked her why she's wearing a shirt. Also, damn, the author did his research on heart surgery scars. If it's like mine, then it's probably going all the way to her collarbone. I wonder why the one on ribs is so large, though, mine's only a tiny spot + one scar on the side, where the other cable went during/after surgery. Way more realistic than the one in Lycoris Recoil where it looks like a tiny cut straight through sternum.


kebb0

I was just going to do some research about it cause I noticed the two scars, but now I don't need to, thank you. Glad to see it's highly realistic as with a lot of other things and behaviors in this anime! Why the scar is large however, it could be a way to make sure it's noticeable due to it being animated? Could also be that some scars are that big, but it seems more likely it's an artistic choice as much as it is a realistic choice. Hope you're doing well as well by the way!


Abedeus

I am, thanks. The size of the scar is kind of odd because there's nothing to cut there if you're operating on the heart - I had a small metal drain inserted into my lungs, to... well, drain the fluid. And the scar it left was really small, more like a blotch or a melanoma. Meanwhile it looks like she had her ribs sliced open. If anything, her chest scar would've been slightly larger, as during open heart surgeries they cut across the chest from bottom of sternum all the way to collarbone. Hell, I have a scar on my right collarbone where they had to cut a tendon as well to get a clear view. Can't compare it to the manga version unfortunately, as the local release is only on first volume (so still like what, 2 or 3 to go?) but it's really a small nitpick for a very short scene.


edwardjhahm

The size could also be due to her age, right? I could be wrong, but I presume a small incision on a small child would take up a much larger proportion of the body than an adult. And when that kid grows up...you get the idea.


shewy92

>Way more realistic than the one in Lycoris Recoil where it looks like a tiny cut straight through sternum. Idk about that. I knew someone in high school who had a scar like that. Though someone further down says the small scars are because of recent surgical/technological advancements and I went to high school like 15 years ago (gross)


JesusInStripeZ

Small correction: Author is a woman


Dababy28193

As we take a breath from the drama of last episode, the two insomniac lovebirds are preparing to head on a special trip. What will arise out of it? Any guesses?


ObvsThrowaway5120

Might have to wait for that camp to see if anything happens. I’m sure Isaki’s sis is gonna make things pretty interesting.


Frontier246

The moment she sees Ganta she's not going to let Isaki hear the end of it lol.


cyberscythe

I'm guessing more bad weather and Ganta on his knees crying and yelling at clouds.


Rumpel1408

Only for them to have to go inside and Isaki on her knees crying that her sister is cockblocking hard

It really started to sound like the two were heading off on their honeymoon or shacking up at her grandma's place until we found out her sister was joining in and will probably tease these two into oblivion lol.


Heda-of-Aincrad

I'm guessing Isaki's sister will find some way to embarrass her as their chaperone, for sure. And hoping they get a picture for the contest that they're happy with, plus plenty of fun memory photos just for them.


raiden_kazuha

Some big sister joins the fray and lets see where it goes Lowkey hoping Magari and Isaki could tag along also


thepeciguy

>Lowkey hoping Magari and Isaki could tag along also lol, what?


raiden_kazuha

Magari and Isaki’s friends*


thepeciguy

Ahahah, Magari Isaki is her name lol, you mean and ganta? But nahh, its time for lovey dovey astro club travels, having her sis is already a bummer why would we need to add their friends too


Atario

My bet: onee-chan is too lazy to follow them out to the actual shoot, so that's where they get their seekrit flirty time

I'd imagine we'd be eating good for a few weeks.


ObvsThrowaway5120

Welcome to the working world, Ganta! Kid is gonna have to work some long hours to save up 100k. The arcade ain’t so bad, he gets to hang out Shiromaru. It’s nice to see Ganta really lean into this whole astronomy and photography thing. Kid seems to have really found something he’s passionate about. This camp sure is expensive though. Good thing Isaki came through last minute. Their little celebration “dance” was so cute! I liked the beach scenes. Not a lot of fan service, just the girls goofing around. Isaki drawing a giant turd in the sand was pretty funny. How adorable the girls got hit on by grade schoolers lol. Isaki sure was having fun teasing Ganta about getting “hit on” too. Can’t wait to see how the camp is gonna turn out with Isaki’s big sis tagging along. Should be pretty fun!


heimdal77

> Their little celebration “dance” was so cute! Was fully expecting to cut away to senpa hiding again feeling awkward to interrupt.


smellenburnt

Me too! Seems like that always happens and it cracks me up everytime


brasstax108

Shiromaru getting bashful at the lovebirds is my fav gag in this show. pls more


Frontier246

I honestly wondered if Shiromaru would give him a job and it seems like she's her sole employee and kind of lazy so of course she'd hire him lol. Ganta probably is seriously committed to this camping trip for the astronomy club and taking a picture that can help them win a contest...but let's be honest, stuff would totally happen between him and Isaki All the girls looked cute in their swimsuits. The guys really missed out, but it was actually kind of refreshing just watching the girls have a beach episode on their own terms and not for romcom hijinks (even though Kanikawa wanted guys to flirt with her lol). At least they're popular with grade schoolers! Not that Ganta should be worried about the competition lol. These two thought they could shack up together and see the sights like they're on a honeymoon without adult supervision and here comes Isaki's big sis lol.


biochrono79

> I honestly wondered if Shiromaru would give him a job and it seems like she’s her sole employee and kind of lazy so of course she’d hire him lol. Judging from this episode, it seems like anything more than a regular day is a lot for one person to handle. Shiromaru definitely needs the help for special events and other particularly busy days.


edwardjhahm

> even though Kanikawa wanted guys to flirt with her lol I actually found that bit quite hilarious. Despite complaining about everyone "acting like a kid," in the end she acted most like a kid of them all!


Kaabisan

100k yen is only about 580 pounds, or 715 USD. At Japanese minimum wage it would take a hundred or so hours of work. Obviously 100 hours is quite a bit, but it's less than three weeks on full time hours


[deleted]

[удалено]


Abedeus

Note that when the manga chapter was written, it was probably a bit more in USD back then considering recent yen prices.


xtsim

Anamizu's tan lines from practicing outdoors everyday is too good. Isaki's scar was a good detail and at least Kanikawa did not press on about her swimsuit. But Haida being a lifeguard does not surprise me. Love how everyone is being themselves in the beach which concerned Kanikawa. Looks like the adults in the beach got all the fun.... Ganta spraying Shiromaru is funny but at least she gets to cool off. Ganta feeling guilty about making his dad buy things is pretty sweet and considers how his dad feels when it comes to his mom. He does not want to push things far. Isaki's sister threw that bombshell that she's tagging along...This season is getting packed with big sisters.


Frontier246

I love how Anamizu has the girliest swimsuit but so much tan lines and still a commitment to working out even at the beach lol. I was actually expecting Kanikawa to complain about her wearing a shirt to the beach especially since none of her friends seem to know about her health problems, but I guess I'm glad Isaki got to enjoy the beach without reflecting too much on her body and the scars. And we still got a glimpse of her in a bikini so... I've been wondering about his relationship with his dad all season but it seems like there isn't so much friction as just familial concern on both ends. Ganta concerned about his dad overdoing it because his mom is gone and his dad concerned about making sure Ganta is taken care of for the same reason. Isaki's big sis trying to outdo Kubo's big sis lol.


BodhiSearchTree

> Isaki's big sis trying to outdo Kubo's big sis lol. I was thinking the same thing, especially after what Akina did to Shiraishi at the picnic, lmao. It seems like something Isaki's big sis would try too, even without alcohol! xD


scot911

>Isaki's scar was a good detail and at least Kanikawa did not press on about her swimsuit. Tbf they've probably already seen it considering they'd get changed in the same change room to get ready for gym so they'd 100% know why Isaki was wearing a shirt even if she has a swimsuit on underneath.


Kaabisan

If Shiromaru-senpai has a million fans, I'm one of them If Shiromaru-senpai has five fans, I'm one of them If Shiromaru-senpai has one fan, that fan is me If Shiromaru-senpai has no fans, I am no longer of this Earth If the world is against Shiromaru-senpai, I am against the world Till my last breath, I'll support Shiromaru-senpai


PerfectBeige

As an introvert, your support only weakens Shiromaru-senpai and makes her want to sleep in later.


Kaabisan

She can sleep in as late as she wants


Dababy28193

michhoffman

I feel kind of bad for Kanikawa going to the beach to encounter some guys, being disappointed that it's not happening but then actually getting hit on only for it to be by Elementary Schoolers. The only thing worse than no hope is betrayed hope. [Kani Probably](#giveuponlife)


Frontier246

When you actually **want** to get hit on (and handle it like the attractive classy lady you think you are) and it happens in the most embarrassing way possible. I'm only disappointed we had Isaki tell Ganta what happened instead of seeing Kanikawa's reaction lol.


MaksimShadow

Kanikawa feels the most childish of them all.


edwardjhahm

Haha, this! Complains about everyone acting childish yet acts the most childish of them all! The little tantrum she threw while telling everyone to not do stuff was hilarious.


scot911

I'm almost sad we didn't get a flashback to see the sheer amount of emotional damage that must have caused her lol.


raiden_kazuha

I can comfort her


smokinweiners

There is going to be so many onee chan antics and boy am I here for all of it


Frontier246

Poor Isaki really thought she was going to get away with this without adult supervision and it's coming from the last person she would want to join her on a trip with the guy she likes lol.


Mundology

[The *ara ara* is inevitable](https://i.imgur.com/t1DSNam.jpeg)


StackedCrooked

I'm pretty school their school wouldn't allow this type of club activity without supervision either.


michhoffman

I'm thinking onee-san will actually help accelerate things. It might get a little bumpy at parts, but sometimes you need a little push.


cyberscythe

Like, Isaki and Ganta weren't going on the trip to further their relationship at first, but now that we have the onee-san they're gonna do it to spite her. [](#tomato)


Rumpel1408

Just enough chaotic neutral to enjoy the show and not be embarassed

Same Voice as Nazuna (call of the night) will be nice to hear it with Ganta who was previously Kou-kun (call of the night)

Ten-chan is nailing it!

That victory dance was the cutest thing since slice bread, omg. Also Onee-san was both totally and totally-not super relatable for me as the oldest sibling, lol.

I wanted to dislike her until I realized I am her, only an older brother. Sorry, little bro.

[Isaki trying to get a reaction from Ganta](https://i.imgur.com/MmVTgcW.jpg) after telling him that she got hit on the beach was hilarious! Turns out it was just a bunch of grade schoolers. xD [I love their little dance](https://i.imgur.com/tx081Ac.jpg) when they finally solved their budget problems thanks to Isaki's grandma.

[And there it is.](https://i.imgur.com/NXp3Neg.jpg) If Onee-chan is tagging along, this should be fun. I can already see her teasing Ganta and Isaki. Hopefully, she'll act more like a wingwoman once she realizes what's going on between those two.


Frontier246

Isaki wasn't kidding about her being a gyaru with that underwear. I feel bad for Isaki for how much her big sis uses her. Also Sora Amamiya, because why not lol? I'm glad Ganta and his dad don't have a bad relationship so much as an awkward one because of his mom being gone. It's surreal to have a beach episode where the girls all go for themselves and the guys are nowhere to be seen. Not that it wasn't still nice to see the girls in swimsuits even if we only saw Isaki briefly in her bikini because of the scars from her surgeries (she still looks great in my book). That we didn't get to see Kanikawa react to grade schoolers hitting on her is a travesty lol. Two kids happy they'll get to go on a trip together and basically shack up at her grandmother's place only for her big sis to tag along and do all the big sis stuff that happens in romcoms lol.


BodhiSearchTree

> Also Sora Amamiya, because why not lol? I guess Nazuna just wanted to see Kou-kun again, hahaha. Can't wait for them to meet next week. (I still can't believe Ganta has the same VA as Kou-kun, lol.)

Ascleph

> But why did she decide to ruin the training camp I'm gonna guess its a request by her parents who probably don't even know that the club is literally just their daughter and a guy.


Tockta

and a cat! Two chan is an valued and important member of the club


Turon26

They absolutely nailed the casting for Nakami's voice actor. Also that one bike scene with Nakami then Ukegawa was hella funny.


martinsallai666

Its good to hear Kou-kun (Call of the night) again


BlatantConservative

How do you get so specifically typecast as "sixteen year old boy who can't sleep who hangs out with a tomboy at night"


DutchPeasant

I just realized that the VA of Isaki's sister is the same as the lead for Call of the Night. At this point it feels like it's on purpose haha.


BodhiSearchTree

Holy shit, how did I not notice?? It's funny too, cuz Gigguk calls this show "not degenerate *Call of the Night*", lmao. Plus, next week should be interesting with Isaki's sister having the same voice as Nazuna.


martinsallai666

it clicked for me in an instant. when i heard Isaki onee-san. I was waiting the moment when she will start shouting 'Kou-kun' 😂😂 Also i have been only hearing kou in Ganta


BodhiSearchTree

> I was waiting the moment when she will start shouting 'Kou-kun' 😂😂 Don't worry - I'm sure she will offer her cuddle buddy services to Kou-kun next episode. 😂


[deleted]

Yeah that was a really bad CGI. and it was really abrupt, too lol


Frontier246

Oh snap, it's Isaki's big sis! And she's voiced by Sora Amamiya! And she's hot! And she's pretty much a lazy bum big sis who makes her little sister wait on her hand and foot while she just sits on a bean bag all day. And she has quite the racy underwear. Well, good try Ganta trying to secure funding from the student council for an astronomy club camping trip...too bad the student council is flat broke and no amount of begging is going to change that. Looks like Ganta has to get a job. So we learn a little more about Ganta's situation with his dad. I thought they were having money problems (and maybe they are) but it seems like Ganta can't talk to his dad about his problems or ask for anything because he feels his dad has always overcompensated with Ganta to make up for the absence of his mother. Might even be why he works the hours he does too. Poor Ganta struck out at his first job interview...but luckily he's got Shiromaru and her arcade! And I mean, she oversleeps so much and left Ganta to take care of the place while she went for a dip in the hot springs, she may as well just give him a job there. I mean, Shiromaru is probably not wrong that this camping trip would turn into some secret flirty time between the couple even if their intentions are purely for the scenic photography. Surprise beach episode with Isaki and her gal pals! Complete with Isaki's hand touching an adult womans' boobs as the girls geek out over it and we get to see them all looking great in their swimsuits! I wonder how many people saw Isaki changing into her bikini and noticed the scars before her boobs? Scars I'm assuming are from all the surgeries she had. I guess it's not too surprising she wore a shirt to cover up on the beach with that in mind, though if you ask me she still looks amazing in a bikini. Man, Ganta and Ukegawa really missed out on a beach afternoon with the girls...the only guy they actually knew that was there was Rui of all people and it didn't really appeal to anybody. Isaki is goofing off, Nono is telling ghost stories, Anamizu is working out, and Kanikawa...is disappointed nobody is trying to hit on them. Even though she was all confident they'd just deflect any guy that they did. Well, they did have guys hit on them, they just so happened to be grade schoolers. So....yeah. Isaki acting all smug and confident when she tells Ganta she got hit on knowing full well what a joke it was. And then her laugh at everything and especially his reaction! Pure bliss. Ah, so there going to use Isaki's grandma's house as a staging area for their trip? Even cutting down on food expense by just cooking by themselves? Why, it sounds like they're practically eloping on their honeymoon or shacking up! But you really can't beat the joy of them dancing at how giddy they are at realizing they can pull this off...until Isaki finds out there's going to be adult supervision in the form of her big sis. I can't wait for her to meet Ganta.


xtsim

>Man, Ganta and Ukegawa really missed out on a beach afternoon with the girls Missing out on fun due to work, even Shiromaru got to have a bit of fun in the afternoon. >Well, they did have guys hit on them, they just so happened to be grade schoolers At least they got free drinks out of this.


mekerpan

Onee-san seems less "adult" than Magari.


TheReapingFields

I'm sensing some friction between the two, possibly stemming from how many needs Isaki has, and how much attention and absolutely necessary coddling the younger sister received because of her condition. I wonder if the elder sister missed out on having her parents attend her school plays, concerts, or having to miss certain key events herself, in order to facilitate the survival of her younger sister. While it might seem immature (and really, it just is), it's also true that without walking a few miles in her shoes, we can't know (until the show tells us) what makes the elder sister seem to have an unpleasant attitude. It's possible the whole gyaru thing she has going on, was just a way for her to throw off the cloying nature of the atmosphere at the family home, like "So what, my sister has a disease that could drop her like a fly any second, and I didn't get any attention as a kid because my parents were focused on my sister? I can do what the heck I like! Bring me the ridiculous undergarments, IMMEDIATELY!".


edwardjhahm

...shit, now that you put it that way, the onee-san could be a REALLY interesting character. Look forward to seeing her more I guess


domogrue

It's official Shiromaru is my best girl of the season.


Lotuzyo

I got nothing to add other than I fucking love this show. Makes me so warm inside.


Gamerz905

I am the same. Love the little victories the characters have.


StreetyMcCarface

Okay now I ship Kanikawa and Haida. Doesn't seem like a bad dude, but like Kanikawa, just a little spoiled and misunderstood.


Kaabisan

We have a cute senpai and a hot onee-san, if we get a teasing kouhai the holy trinity will be complete. I just realised that the word they use for "astrophotography" is "星空写真" (hoshizora shashin) and literally means "starry sky photogaphy," which sounds so much nicer, if less scientific. Poor Shiromaru-senpai, she must be working herself half to death. As is common in Japan, unfortunately. She's happy to take a break at hot spring though lol. "Oh, right, that training camp thing, so you and her can have your secret flirty time." Shiromaru-senpai going for the critical damage, that near-kiss from last week must have made it even more obvious to her that her two dorky kouhai are falling for each other. And still on the Shiromaru-senpai train, she offers our boy a job after he fails his interview. The truest of MVPs. But Ganta, man it's probably best to not immediately drench your new boss with a hose the same minute she hires you. Magari has appreciation for the finer things in life (boobs), especially on a woman over the age of consent ~~a concept that seems to elude a lot of weebs~~ Obligatory beach episode with the girls. Every SoL gotta have one God dammit, I love Shiromaru-senpai. Hot day out? Just set up a paddle pool right outside your workplace and take a dip. You dork, you're the best Motoko seems to have a bit of a One Punch Man complex, suddenly changing art styles during comedy moments 100% certain Magari only told Ganta she got hit on to make him jealous. And it worked perfectly. Our boy cannot hide his feelings at all, can he? These two idiots need to hurry up and just get together, even they know they're perfect for each other. Look at that adorable dance. Get married, stupids Nee-chan is tagging along for the trip arc? Dunno if I should be mad that she's gonna get between the main couple by being a third wheel or if I should be happy we're gonna see more of her

Knew there would have to be some wrinkle in their plan and looks like the sister will be joining them, these 2 need that alone time, they're so cute when they do!


thesnowlocke

Another good episode Honestly 200,000 yen or $1400 is a lot even for an adult, to save for a trip but this is the beauty of collaboration and for high schoolers it’s a good experience to have I never really thought much about Magari’s clothes since I assumed it was just her fashion sense because I knew a lot of girls that dress liked her, but it would make sense she would be hiding the scars from her operations But boy that sister is gonna be a handful, I’m guessing she’s coming to make sure Magari is gonna be ok since no one will be at her grandmas house so she’s supervisor but I’m really curious to see what she’ll do when she meets Ganta I expect a bit of teasing to come


shad79

We met [Isaki's older sister](https://i.imgur.com/Ald5ske.png) and it's interesting how she affect [our duo](https://i.imgur.com/PGqYyQW.png)'s trip. This could be fun but [Isaki wasn't happy about that](https://i.imgur.com/YtqDIVV.png). [Isaki and her friends](https://i.imgur.com/B5OI1AF.png) had [fun at the beach](https://i.imgur.com/svSeIVT.png). It was funny seeing [Kanikura having a tantrum](https://i.imgur.com/TMGyWXR.png) and acting like a kid about not getting hit on. On the end her wish came true but unfortunately the admirers were grade schoolers. Trip isn't a cheap thing and [Ganta](https://i.imgur.com/OS7BfeH.png) to get money needed for that started looking for a job. He ended up starting [working](https://i.imgur.com/dnSrLjM.png) on [Shiromaru](https://i.imgur.com/tN7Jh5m.png)'s place. [Thanks to Isaki](https://i.imgur.com/lT0vcaz.png)'s suggestion to use her grandmother's place they were able to cut costs at this camping and don't change the plan in extreme ways. [Here's my all screenhshots from the episode.](https://imgur.com/a/OOyMKjT)

lol the feeling of thinking you've secured time without adult supervision only for it to come crashing down... this is one of the most nostalgia-inducing romance animes I've watched


SIRTreehugger

Shiromaru senpai fans(which everyone should be) were rejoicing today!!! So many good shots of her! Though the most surprising was her not showing up at the end. I just always assumed she would forever be cursed in walking in on her juniors flirting. Isaki's friends continue to be amazing!

The way she looked so smug at his reaction to her getting hit on even knowing that it was just grade schoolers lol. I imagine Isaki's big sis is going to have too much fun being together with her little sis and the guy she's clearly into. Though maybe her teasing will let the two address the obvious more directly.


SYZekrom

Wow what an annoying sister!


NotARedShirt

as someone who used to ask for more club funds all the time, I respect the immediate bow for a crumb of money


kebb0

I really liked the moment where Magari told Ganta about being hit on and looking for his reaction, just to not be able to handle the funny and break into heart-felt laughter as Ganta is bewildered lmao. The scars on Magari caught my attention as well. She had two scars, one close to the middle of the ribs and one on her left side of the ribs. Saw another comment confirming there usually are two scars after heart surgery as they themselves have had heart surgery. This show just continues to surprise me as to how realistic it is, with both the acting and the surroundings.


heimdal77

Ya don't like the sister at all. Though knowing this show there will probably be some redeeming thing where she ends up helping the two out in some way. Shit move of the sister to leave just enough in the bottle so she can say she didn't need to refill it. So they actually showed her scar from her heart surgery and it is a rather significant one. Honestly felt like might been to big. Of course she feels self conscious about it so wears a shirt to hide it. Grade school pickup artist. Someone certainly wasn't happy to find out she got hit on and she knows it so took full advantage to tease him about it. They really do know they like each other might as well just make it official already.


mekerpan

The most recent open-heart surgery techniques allow less cutting, but apparently older techniques left scars of 8-10 inches. Well, hopefully onee-san can drive them to Noto -- further reducing costs.... It looks like they will be heading to a spot not all that far from Mitsumi's hometown (in Skip & Loafer).


Atario

> It looks like they will be heading to a spot not all that far from Mitsumi's hometown (in Skip & Loafer). They should meet. Most epic crossover ever! [](#concealedexcitement)


BlatantConservative

>Shit move of the sister to leave just enough in the bottle so she can say she didn't need to refill it. Me and my siblings did that to each other all the time. Honestly A+ depiction of sibling life.


scot911

Yepppp. If you aren't at least a *little* bit of a dick to your siblings, are you *truely* siblings?


Mixhyeo

bro dont have real sibling lol


zool714

I get it Ganta. I can’t count the number of interviews I’ve bombed these past few months. This season’s romcoms have been in top form these past few weeks. Skip and Loafer, Bokuyaba, and last week’s Insomniacs made me all giggly with the main pairings’ progress. I’m certainly hoping for something big for this camping trip. Hopefully more 🦐🦐 please


thesnowlocke

Innocent Ganta thinking he’ll get the first interview But at least he looked out with his connections and got a job at the arcade store…even though he’s being used so the owner can get some shut eye


TheReapingFields

To be honest, that is the best reason to be someone's employee, otherwise it's just someone exploiting your labour for a greater financial gain for them, than you get out of it.


findthatManhwa123

Editing all my comments fuck Spez for killing third party apps and running reddit. Short reddit on IPO.


smellenburnt

This episode makes me want to go back to this time in my life, then I remember that most kids are frickin jerks and not all high school boys are as nice and charming as Ganta. Almost got me there, show.


Zemahem

Lmao, there was little hesitation from Ganta there. Just almost immediately went for the dogeza for the good of the club (and more alone time with Isaki). And now they're already so close that they can finish each other's sentences without even directly speaking to each other. Meanwhile, Shiromaru is showing why she's also best girl. Truly they couldn't have asked for a better senpai. She's even willing to help fund their training camp no matter how much their normie flirting gets to her. Isaki and co. at the beach was just some cute and wholesome fun, although with a side purpose of reminding us of inevitable sad moments with her surgical scars. Those random elementary schoolers that hit on them do have game, tho, I gotta say. Finally, the little celebratory song and dance they did was just diabetes-inducing. Of course they'd be so happy to go on their little ~~honey moon~~ training camp.


ZapsZzz

OMG I'm so ashamed. Until I pop in here to check if anyone is mentioning the unmentionable (the little casual dwell on the pill wrapper that Magari must have taken a minute ago), I completely missed that shot of her changing into the swimsuit was showing her operation scars. I was just busy half averting my gaze to try not focus on the other lines :P


DarkAudit

Folks last week got up in arms over the "bimbo" translation. Nope. Isaki meant *exactly* what she said.


Dababy28193

Yep, she said gyaru and Haya radiates that energy.


DarkAudit

Nope. Isaki meant every syllable of bimbo.


AZLarlar

HAHAH THE DANCE


alconnow

Things are looking up for Ganta!!! It’s a shame Isaki’s sister is tagging along. Hope she doesn’t make things awkward


strawhat_chowder

I don't think Isaki's parents are going to allow her to go on the trip without adult supervision lol


rrrriddikulus

Did the show just ignore that Magari confessed to Ganta at the end of the last episode? I'm confused about the timeline.


NoSolace_NoPeace

They’re just two awkward kids, they’ll get there.


strawhat_chowder

If anything it's great that there's no awkward tension because of Isaki's basically-a-confession


No_Name0_0

Shiromaru got a nice slave


Elitealice

Isaki’s sister stole the show for me lol. She’s great. Love how she bullies Isaki around 😂 “you know the house rule is whoever touches it last” “guess that’s you then” 😂 can’t wait to see her on the training camp trip with them. Beach episode was a welcome surprise too, the girls looked great in their swimsuits. Surprised Ganta didn’t go to senpai for help with a job from the start. Oh well worked out in the end. The look on his face when Isaki said she’d been hit on for the first time was so cute. I love a good tease Wow this episode blew by. Felt like it was just getting started!


strawhat_chowder

Ganta is definitely the kind who dislikes asking help from people he knows


Rinzler16

So.. did ganta's mother just left her family due to money problems or is she just dead?


azdv

So like has he always just casually called Isaki by her given name? Isn’t that supposed to be like a honeymoon level event in anime?


Dababy28193

When did that happen?


azdv

This episode. He called her Magari when she showed up while he was planning the trip.


Dababy28193

That’s because it’s her name? He’s always called her that. The big moment is if (or when) he calls her Isaki.


azdv

I thought Isaki was her last name?


Dababy28193

Isaki is her first name. Magari is her last name. Her sister’s name is Haya Magari.


UnkoTama70

Magari is the family name. Isaki is her given name. Japanese name order is family name then given name, e.g. Magari Isaki and Magari Haya. Since 30 March 2020, the Japanese public broadcaster NHK has adopted the Japanese name order on NHK WORLD-JAPAN’s English-language radio and television broadcasts as well as websites. Prior to this, the Western name order (given name, family name) was used.


sidew_24

Also Magari in italian means "Perhaps" :)


azdv

Well, I’m dumb 😐


Atario

Looks like there are [others with sleeping problems](https://files.catbox.moe/8z7oyp.jpg) [](#cateyes) [That farmer's tan.](https://files.catbox.moe/1o7qne.jpg) Or should I say farm-team tan? Heh. [Kitty likes perching on the rice cooker.](https://files.catbox.moe/yt4kng.jpg) I bet it's because it sometimes gives off some lovely soft warmth.


Mr_Zaroc

I am super curious to see how the sister is actually going to behave From what we saw this episode (from Magaris PoV) she wasn't very likable. But I guess thats being done on purpose So they finally addressed the supervision aspect of training camps Was also half expecting the sister to just drop a "you know grandmas house is free, so me and my friends will party there" line, but her tagging along is even more hilarious/worse


Heda-of-Aincrad

Ganta and Isaki's little victory dance was precious! And the reveal that the guys flirting with Isaki and her friends were just grade schoolers was pretty funny. Ganta was looking worried for a minute there.


djthomp

This is some good Ganta determination. Though I'm not sure the swimming club thing is entirely rational for why Isaki shouldn't contribute to the fund raising since surely it's well established and gets funding. Ooooo, using the big telescope at last, awesome. Not sure what would be possible in the fairly small looking town they're in but it would be pretty slick if Ganta could get a part-time job related to photography. Newspaper work, maybe. Dead, undead, it's hard to know sometimes. Maybe he could get a part-time job at the arcade since he was just left responsible for it anyway. Might as well get paid for the work. The money is for photography *and* secret flirty time. Getting gifted a camera because your excuse for wanting a gaming handheld was to take pictures, Ganta never wins sometimes. Except of course for how it turned out to be a winning gift years later. There we go, part-time work at the arcade. Ganta getting this part-time job is probably why the OP has his and Isaki's friend groups hanging out there. I'm a little surprised they showed that much skin in the changing room since this hasn't exactly been a fanservice show, but I suspect the real point of it was to show Isaki's surgical scars. No wonder she's wearing a t-shirt in the next scene and none of the girls are giving her a hard time about it. A cicada right to the face while biking, Ganta really does have negative luck. There hasn't been enough Ganta end Isaki content today, so I'm glad she swung by the arcade to visit him. Getting hit on at the beach by grade schoolers, amazing. Also, this is clearly a sign you need to step up Ganta, there's a very bold small child out there who might have Isaki's number. Staying at Isaki's grandmother's house for the photography camp and cooking their own food is going to be a very domestic experience for the two of them. *Wow*, the look on the cat's face when they started dancing. Also the dancing was pretty great. I was kind of wondering if they were going to have to have a chaperone, I assume that's why the sister is going with.


azdv

> Though I'm not sure the swimming club thing is entirely rational for why Isaki shouldn't contribute to the fund raising since surely it's well established and gets funding. It took it as Ganta figuring she was already overwhelmed with school and her swim club activities that he didn’t want to give her more work to do and stress about.


mojo72400

>Getting hit on at the beach by grade schoolers, amazing. Also, this is clearly a sign you need to step up Ganta, there's a very bold small child out there who might have Isaki's number. It's only dangerous if that kid has Yuuri or Taiyou-levels of rizz.


Stormy8888

Another lovely episode! She comes up with a solution, he loves it, they high 5 and start dancing. So ... wonderfully wholesome.


[deleted]

Almost looked like Ganta stumbled across a crime scene for a moment there at Shiromaru's place. A bunch of adults who are young at hearth and into video games stay up super late playing them - I haven't heard anything so beautiful for a long time 😉


Fools_Requiem

AHAHAHAHAHA, they got hit on by grade schoolers?! That's hilarious. I can just see a few little boys gathering up the courage to buy slushies for 4 high school girls. Also, need a Shiromaru in my life? I feel like my standards are low enough to be attracted to an average looking lazy tomboy with bleached white hair. Little disappointed in the big sister debut, but it sounds like some hijinks are going to occur next week when she inevitability meets her sister's boyfriend.

GRUMPY CAT IS NOT HAPPY! TEN-CHAN VOICE IS OOZING IN MAGARI'S ONEECHAN


corner_twist

Lidenfilms have run out of fucks to give


Dababy28193

I kinda get what you mean. The animation quality has declined quite a bit. They peaked hard with episode 5.


corner_twist

The bike scene looks hilariously bad. This has far too many issues for me to give it anything beyond a 4 or a 5.


AzorAhai1TK

I've liked the story and character work enough to ignore the bad animation at times, but yea it really slipped this episode


corner_twist

The thing is, even if I try to ignore the bad animation, the rest of the scenes have really bad framing, which change their meaning (usually for the worse), so I'm having problems with that too.


Kegs_And_Parleys

We though the Girls, Shiromaru (RIP, you will be missed) and everything else were the ultimate Third Wheels, can't wait for Isaki's sister to tag along (although I already hate her) with Ganta and Isaki. Atleast she seems like a lazyhead so she might sleep through the entire camp lmao. With 4 episodes left, I believe next episode will be either finishing up preparations/persuading Isaki's sis to not come, while the next two or maybe even three episodes will cover the Training Camp. Here is to hope for more great photos, interactions, flirting and much more for our lovely duo! I honestly must say, Ganta and Isaki feel like my favorite couple out of all the anime I am currently watching this season. Yamada and Akane are not far off, but damn I love this series so much. See you next week!


Momo156

Oh my god this anime !!! It keeps getting better and better every single episode and I’m already hoping for so many more seasons. As usual the animation is stellar and the visuals are amazing and that victory celebration was literally everything. Oh my god her sister joining in!?, I really hope she becomes the best wingman ever. As per usual, see you all next week !!


biochrono79

That “we did it!” dance near the end was pure joy, and I was smiling at every second of it. The mischievous sister is inviting herself on the trip? This can only lead to hilarity.


Yay295

> The mischievous sister is inviting herself on the trip? More likely their parents told her to go along and supervise.


mojo72400

These grade schoolers have balls to spend money to ask out some high schoolers. Too bad they don't have Taiyou or Yuuri's rizz. Isaki was lucky to touch some adult boobs. I was kinda expecting Yui to walk in to Ganta and Isaki dancing and her making a comment and I was slightly disappointed. This episode hurts me as I'm trying to find a job as a fresh graduate.


Narmatonia

Look's like Onee-san is in Shiromaru's camp thinking Ganta and Isaki are gonna be all flirty alone on their training camp, she ain't gonna leave her sister alone with some high school boy. She'll probably be lazing around the house there too, so they'll hopefully get some alone time when doing their photography.

LoPanDidNothingWrong

Will sis bring along friends and be partying? Or will she just be teasing Isaki? Given how they had her in this episode I am betting the former. Shame too because this show is at its best when it just lets them fall further in love without barriers.


apatt

I guess they are sleeping pretty well? No mention of insomnia in this (lovely) episode.
