I like this episode. We’ve got:
- Hiro baited by the Exceed reel and being hilariously bad at handling money
- Harem-baiting
- Yuri-baiting
- Hetero-baiting
- Literal fish baiting of different types
- Fishes metaphor in romance
Speaking of the Exceed, he got it as a newbie. I’m not surprised if he’ll pick up some bad fishing habits that he needs to unlearn later
hilariously bad at handling money
Thankfully he’s got a good guy that allows him to rectify his mistakes.
relationship baiting
Can you already call that baiting?
Can you already call that baiting?
At least in Kozue’s case towards Hiro
I do like how we are slowly building out our cast of other characters. However, I feel like the plot has mostly stalled? Like, we haven’t seen any kind of mention of his terminal illness since episode 1. I was hoping that we would see more of him processing his impending death and the emotions that that would bring.
I’m holding a verdict on that until later episodes. Hiro has a lot of new experiences in a short period of time, so it’s believable he largely forgot he has a few years to live. I don’t think he told his new friends yet, and I feel the show will hit you like truck-kun once he catches up to the fact.
Done!
That new rod/reel cost ~850 USD. That is an insane amount to spend for a new angler that is deep in debt. I just looked up what an equivalent to my rod/reel costs today and came out to $120, and I have been using that for two decades at this point. I guess when you are doing saltwater fishing it would be more expensive, but that is still nuts. I guess when you know you only have two years left to live, might as well live it up?
