Himawari is being spied on, and totally unaware of the serious nature of this, Yusura thinks it’s romantic, silly thing! Cute though :) The girls are worried, they want to catch the stalker. He seems relatively harmless though, and Himawari meets with him alone. I didn’t feel particularly interested in this episode, I’m not sure exactly why [...]

This is another fantastic episode (not just because it is ’swimsuit’ episode), but it has an adorable story which brings out the kind personalities of the characters! The girls are having their ‘breathe through a straw underwater’ lesson = cute swimsuits. A duck has Himawari’s straw (which made me laugh quite a lot!) and it looks like [...]

This is where the series starts picking up again for me. A transfer girl arrives, and uh-oh this looks like trouble, she arrives on a kite…which she can actually fly (unlike Himawari) and lands perfectly (also unlike Himawari!). The girls are all in a cooking class, (look at the cute food Yusura makes for Yonesawa!) but Himawari and [...]

I’m not sure whether I’m going to use this section often, but it’s perfect if I want to say something about certain series outside of the monthly summaries. Perhaps I’ll use this more often in the future f I want to say something about series I’m not blogging. Himawari I remember that I classified this anime [...]

I am now downloading a completely subbed full series of Inukami at breakneck speed. Other series include Himawari, Blood+ and KAMISAMA KAZOKU. How is this possible, many of you would ask? The catch is that all of these are Chinese fansubs. My HK friend, Tikchan, introduced me to a couple of torrent aggregator/fansub websites and [...]
