| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Mm, I just love the atmosphere of this episode. The piano like OST~  Oh and the twins makes their appearance. I haven't read the manga yet so this is the first time I've seen them. They are cute though imo :3 Eh, I spotted a dead deer...... Decent episode imo. |

| After the chicken now the deer.. |
| So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old? I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them? I wonder how long people would put up with this. As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series. |
| Haha that ending XD |
| Dang, talk about a moment killer! |
| They ran over a deer and a bear lol. |
 |
| That dead deer was kinda... Nasty. |
| wow gay |
| Hachiken butchering that deer was a huge step for him, he did a great job. Now he's more prepared when the time comes for Pork Bowl to become meat (that sounds harsh). But Pork Bowl really is cute >< After seeing how hard Komaba's mother works, Hachiken realizes that it's tough running a farm, how much time they spend working and how little profit they get. Poor Hachiken walking for so long, he thought that Komaba's place was pretty near but nope. And all it took to get signal was for Komaba to reach into the air lol. |
 |
| Really really nice episode. Loved the character development for Hachiken this episode :) And the foreshadowing for Aki and Komaba's problem was handled really well. Lol'd at Aki's Dad and his over protectiveness XD And Gramps is an awesome character :D The butchering scene was pretty emotional. Loved the AkixHachi moment and how it was ruined....by hitting a bear XDXDXD |
 |
| It was really nice episode, made me like this anime a lot. |
| IS bear edible? And my fav scene this episode.  |

| they gonna need a new truck if this keeps up. |
| I'm a Wildlife and Conservation Biology major, so I'm pretty familiar with roadkill animals. The animation on the roadkill and the butchering/skinning scenes were absolutely perfect. Somehow, the part about hitting the bear completely slipped my mind, since I haven't gone back to reread the manga, but they adapted those panels so well I ended up showing all my housemates. I just can't see anything wrong with this show, it is far too brilliant. 5/5 and I'll probably watch this episode for years to come. zephiris said: Yes, yes it is. The football coach at my high school brought in bear jerky for the jazz students one year. I don't know why, but hey, bear jerky. He also apparently made bear sausage for his Weights class.IS bear edible? |

| Well, they did skip some less important parts from the manga but still nicely done. |
| That pig looks more delicious which each episode. *drools* Believe it or not, once we had a goat, the damn thing acted like he was a dog, the only thing he didn't do is bark. Had no problem eating him when it was time for him to be butchered. |

He also apparently made bear sausage for his Weights class. It's a little fatty and strong tasting for me, but generally any game is tastier than domesticated animals in the same way that animals raised in a traditional manner (on pasture or free range) taste better than something from a meat factory. I'd take venison, elk, bison, moose, or wild boar over beef and pork any day of the week. Seeing the damage the bear did on the truck reminded me of hitting a deer several years ago. Fortunately I just managed to hit the brakes and swerve enough to strike it a glancing blow rather than head on, but it still did around $4000 damage to our van. I fear deer and moose more than drunk drivers when I'm on mountain roads.... I love this show. Hokkaido reminds me of home. |

| Didn't think Hachiken would be brave enough to do this.I wonder how will he act when Pork Bowl's time comes. Also, lmao:  In general, the show keeps getting more interesting.I came to really like Aki. |
| Great episode, dem little twins, and that grand granny, being 107 years old and still kicking. The deer part tho, I know that feel, I've been forced to watch something similar. Loving this show thus far. |
 |
| Great episode and series overall. The ending was pretty funny after that somewhat tense scene when he was preparing to butcher the dear. I thought he wasn't going to eat any of it but he manned up and just went with it which was good to see. |
 |
| It seems like each episode Hachiken is developing more and more, and I enjoy that, if I was in his situation I probably wouldn't have butchered that deer. But it's good that Hachiken overcame that, but it will be sad when Pork Bowl's time comes =( I enjoyed this episode, and I like the last part with Aki and Hachiken, although the bear was pretty funny. |
 |
| Wow this series i s amazing OMG Aki's great granny is sooo adorable (idk man) The animation of the deer's butchering was very realistic. And I totally freaked at the moment Hachiken and Aki's moment at the end and then BEAR pfft |

| GAHHH now i wanna hunt some deer D: |
Dont bother replying to my posts in forums, dont check them afterwards. |
| Every episode is so refreshing, I just love this series!!! |
 |
| This episode put this series as best of the season for me so far, absolutely loved it MUCH better than last week's episode. |

| Nice ep, but man I'm so anxious to learn more about him and his family issues. That suspense |
Kjeldoran said: Why are they tossing the organs? Heart, lungs, and tongue are the tastiest parts. Liver is good, too. From my experience, an animal stops being a "living being" and just a pile of meat by the time I skin it and start chopping it up. Hachiken still seems to think otherwise, but I'm sure he'll come around. Pork bowl looks delicious. I'm sure it will make for a good meal. I think there are risk to parasites. It is better safe and sorry. |
I lost it here This gets better and better at mixing comedy with serious moments. |
 |
| yet another show capable of mixing comedy and seriousness with a bit of decent char deployment props to you Gin No Saji also that ending was so great lol. |
 |
| Character development! I love that Hachiken is willing to do things. AlexTheRiot said: I lost it here This gets better and better at mixing comedy with serious moments. I remember reading this in the manga. One of my favorite moments. Had he been told to do this while he was back home, he wouldn't hesitate in refusing. Though if I remember correctly, the anime is skipping a few (minor?) parts of the manga. I will have to go back and reread some time. |
| Ah the horror of seeing a animal butchered and skinned for food lol glad they didn't show the deer meat move after being cut.... That bear part reminded me of Takamura from Hajime No Ippo and his incident with the bear. |

| "A starry night sky, and on the truck bed, there's only Mikage, me... and a dead bear." Haha. Love this episode. Way to go, Hachiken!! And the twins are cute. |

| Silver Spoon Ep.6: In which Hachiken butchered Bambi. |
| Best episode thus far. |
| That ending was really good jaja As a whole, this episode was one of the best so far. This whole anime is very likeable to me. Good theme done right. oooh alsoi. back in the day, I used to watch my mom buy the chickens, slit their throats, hang them upside down to drain the blood, and they would flap about still headless for while while the blood sipped down. Then you had to gut and boil the carcass to make it easier to take off the feathers. Not too fond of those memories tbh ja |
| Huh getting a part time near Aki's relatives, nice to see their appearance. The baseball part was funny when the ball went by too fast XD. Kind of felt it when he began to cut the deer though. The ending made me lol. |
| Best episode so far. |
| Very good episode. Is it me or this episode kinda reminded me of summer wars just without the whole Oz thing. |
| I cannot get enough if this show. Might have to pick up the manga soon. |
| Let's go bowling. |
| Yes, hopefully this anime will inspire more people to read the manga. Way better than the anime, but I'm still very surprised that a lot of people love the anime. It's already famous in Japan, but it wouldn't hurt for more people around the internet to be introduced to this! |
| First hand at the Human food chain So intriguing to see Hachiken's emotion and Aki Very brave how he handled the Deer as well And of course adding a Bear as a bonus |
| the bear one, well I didn't see that coming lol, this episode is great |
| Eh. Great episode but....... They left out sooo much things from the manga T_T |
| I'm an Avid Slice of Life fan, if you have any interesting SoL anime/manga to introduce, please do so ^^, Just your typical Yandere lover :3 |
