This was largely the fishing episode of Negaposi fishermaneven by his requirements. Not one of the character stuff actually impressed (together with the MacGuffin). That is, after all, a fishing present in identify. However this was a superb take a look at of his skill to make that an fascinating matter, as there was nothing else to assist it. In fact, should you’re already interested by fishing, it is a totally different equation. However I am unable to think about it is a massive portion of the viewers (however what do I do know, and it is a nation of islands in any case).
The exception to this was Fujishiro-san. He’s the final nice thriller among the many solid of Everymart. I hoped we might get some actual revelation about him right here, nevertheless it was principally lofty rumors and gossip of the sort that younger individuals become involved in in relation to guys like him. His seiyuu (Sugawara Masashi, a veteran of the previous) telling the story was a clue to the one actual reveal about him. However we nonetheless do not know a lot about Fushishiro-san, apart from that he’s superb at fishing and intensely small. And that he has the cash to purchase a brand new camper.
As for fishing, it is primarily about gal – Japanese sardinella. I do not know something concerning the distinction between a sardine and a sardinella (or a shad for that matter). I’ve by no means eaten it, not less than I do not forget that. But it surely appears to the stuff-obsessed noob Hiro as lame as a goal. It is unglamorous and smelly buddy fishing, all for a fairly small potential sum of money. His head is turned by the lures and the large catch he can land along with his two-month rental gear, and heads to the pier to chase bass whereas the others (together with Fujishiro) have smaller fish to (finally) fry .
Fujishiro tells Hiro’s story as this all performs out, in what I can solely name breaking the fourth wall. Hiro is the basic neophyte, brimming with enthusiasm and lack of expertise (even I knew the birds had been an indication of baitfish and the whoppers that hunt them). With Hana’s assist, he finally hooks a big (apparently terribly massive) one. But it surely’s the one which bought away, as usually occurs with large fish. Chalk it up as a studying expertise (like shedding a ¥1,600 lure by not tying it tight sufficient).
Finally, Hiro discovers that fishing for small bites has its personal charms. The others clearly get pleasure from bringing within the little ones, so why would not he do the identical? He additionally discovers that Fujishiro is the narrator of the fishing present “Fish Dreamer” that all of them watch, which explains the place he will get his cash from, however not why Hiro appears to be the one one who observed it. It is a good soft-pedal philosophical lesson right here, very according to Hiro’s character arc with this unusual fishing otaku. These casting for larger story fish must wait one other week, however there’s nothing fallacious with reeling within the small ones generally too.
