What I’ve learned from this ep is how damn hard and annoying it is to remove mold from clothes.

I wonder if we’re ever actually gonna talk about Kinmei’s amnesia? Very curious to know the story there.

The ship tease reaches peak level this episode 

I love this show.
I never thought I could enjoy a cleaning anime but for now this is my favorite comfy watch in this season.

When you think that Kinme cleaned all those clothes out of pure kindness and a desire to help the community, you can't help but love her; she's so cordial, helpful, and kind. And of course, she has her clumsy side; I wouldn't be able to sleep on the floor under normal circumstances lol.

The festival was incredible, Atami really has a different vibe (by the way, the waterfront reminded me a bit of Monaco). I can only imagine how Kinme must have felt, especially since she doesn't remember her past.

The mask simply prevented us from seeing Kinme and Kyu kiss, but it's so nice to see his gradual development, especially considering he's a "cool" vibes person.

Kyuu's an absolute sweetie pie, leaving Kinme a plate of onigiri along with a note telling her not to overwork herself. And that mini-date during the festival was quite lovely, shame that it didn't end too well. Sorry Moruda, you've got no hope – and you'll only end up getting teased even more by your sister.

That's a handy tip on how to rid your clothes off mould. I'll be sure to keep a note of it, and hope that I'll never have to use it.

###Stitches!

Considering [the amount of work Kinme put into cleaning all of those clothes](https://i.imgur.com/nkTwnjZ.png), I hope the neighbourhood association compensated her and [didn't just thank her politely.](https://i.imgur.com/trprdYx.png)

[Kuriru's outfit genuinely caught me off guard!](https://i.imgur.com/WQwOda8.png) Like, girl, that's really all you're wearing while riding the mikoshi? I thought they'd be wearing the happi Kinme cleaned for them.

[That fall actually scared me for a sec.](https://i.imgur.com/6pVHzPR.png) I honestly thought it was gonna end with Kyuu catching Kinme galantly not Kinme crushing Kyuu. Thankfully, it wasn't serious, and it may even have progressed Kinme and Kyuu's relationship a little.

I do not know how I feel if the show is actually pushing a Kyu and Kinme relationship as she is clearly an adult from drinking beer and running her own business

There are times when you’re enjoying yourself and you just have this moment where you think “wow this is definitely something I’d look back fondly on”. I think Kinme had one of those moments but it probably hits harder for her since she has no such memory before this and she’s recognizing she’s making new precious ones right at that moment. I wonder if she gets her memory back, will there be a “clash” between original Kinme and Atami Kinme

Oh they definitely had an accidental kiss. Ngl I don’t mind some light romance between those two. Kinme doesn’t seem that much older and Kyuu seems to have a good head on his shoulders. Though, I think Kyuu should focus on graduating first.

I know the wider audience might not think much of these types of shows but I love going in and getting some actual slice of life. Little to no drama, just everyday things. There is a chance the memory loss thing could get heavy but I’m gonna enjoy this as it is now

Kinme must be a heavy sleeper if she sleeps on the table and wakes up on the floor lol. Hope she doesn’t hurt herself.

Need a bunch of Hapi Coats cleaned and their stains removed? You can count on Kinme! I mean, it is a lot of work, but she's locked in to get them all as spick and span before the festival along with her high school assistants! And Kinme will spare no expense or resource to make them look their best!

Sometimes Kuriru CAN come off like a genuine big sister...especially when her little brother falls asleep on the job and she has to carry him back home, piggyback style. Modura may want Kinme to be his big sister, but he's definitely already got one!

Count on Kyu to stay behind long enough to see Kinme asleep on the table...and leave her a good morning onigiri when she wakes up. Good thing he didn't see her sleeping on the floor with her clothes disheveled, though he sees her asleep on the table again that very night. How many times is he going to catch Kinme asleep?

Kinme never fails on a job! those Hapi Coats look fantastic! Though is Kuriru's float outfit appropriate for a high school girl appearing on a festival float? I mean, she won't be the only girl in tight shorts, but she's basically letting everyone see her massive cleavage. Not that I don't appreciate the view, but it seems like she really doesn't care about people seeing skin.

Kinme "heave-ho" to get in the festival mood is absolutely adorable.

Kinme made it to the festival just in time! She even gets to join in and really feel like she's part of it! After how invaluable she was in making this happen, she deserves it and to make a new memory that she'll hopefully always have.

Look at Kyu, trying to have some fun with Kinme and letting her stand on the parade float...before catching her fall when she slips on the ladder. Did they kiss through Kinme's mask? They both seem to be acting like it and are incredibly flustered as a result.

Nairo really did her best! And is understandably a little overwhelmed by the festival stuff!

Uhh Kuriru i think ur outfit is a little suggestive for the parade if im being honest 😅

Damn Kinme should've just avoided going up to that float tho especially with how tired she was for the past few days but i think Kyuushou wasn't looking because he was trying to be a gentleman but they could've made it more romantic than anticlimactic for sure 🥲

This anime is seriously so good. I never I thought an anime about cleaning and laundry would keep me engage to this level. Hope this gets good amount of attention so we get a season 2 (oh god please cause I am tired of not getting new season of alot of anime )

Well, looks like there will be some unnecessary romance subplot. Shame because I think this works lot better without high school boy & adult woman romance.

How she sleeps is just freaking hilarious.

And man that mid episode eye catch. Kyushu is a man among men to show no interest

At least until the end...what now?!

...Is that girl literally wearing anything under her zip-up hoodie? Girl's got them shorts shorter than her hoodie and the undershirt with a lower cut than her very-low hoodie zipper, jeez.

I'm loving the warm vibes this show is giving me each Monday.
I hope poor Girl got some form of payment for busting her ass for 2 all nighters🤣. Minor thing but I love minor soundbites that japanese VAs do, like they way Kinme called Poly chan, it was so cute!!

OMG they kissed right there😍

Meh... I think I've had enough of this. The random and distasteful high school kid x adult woman romantic tumor has grown large enough to be impossible to ignore. I suppose it is possible he turns out to have been a third year all along, but I'm not enough of a fan of the show otherwise to keep on watching to find out.

Ah. Right. That.

Right. Time to get to work.

Oh, he's here too?

And so she fell asleep again.

So, it's all done.

That's a nice shot of her in a swimsuit.

And so the festival went off without a hitch.

What's she in a rush for?

So, she's gone to watch the festival.

And so it's just him and her.

Uh oh.

He's going to catch her isn't he?

Well... Not exactly what I meant by catch her...

Kinme eyecatch was peak.

Moral of the episode, don't climb onto a parade float while wearing a mask that obscures your vision.

Maybe that's what she did before but nobody was there to catch her when she fell and hit her head and lost her memory. The way she kept falling asleep at the table and waking up on the floor this episode, maybe she's an amnesiac because she's very clumsy.

Usually I'm pretty open when it comes to romance, but this couple feels so out of place it's kinda "what the hell".
Wakana is portrayed as a young, responsible adult with a cheerful and active personality. While Kyuushou is also composed, he's more like a carefree, going-with-the-flow character, opposite of Wakana.
Feels to me like they're just forcing a match between those characters just to satisfy some kind of fetish from the author.
Nothing wrong with that of course, but to me this doesn't look like the ship Wakana deserves, at all. Oh well, maybe that's just me.
