Tamayura ~Hitotose~ Episode 8


With the festival now over, Fuu-chan thinks about how her role-model photographer, Shihomi-san, would have captured scenes that others would miss. It's just then that she runs into her and, what's this, could she be living in town? And with the okonomiyaki lady?


This episode becomes more about photography. Fuu-chan shares more of how she came to love it and we find that Komachi-chan has also taken up the hobby.
this seems somehow impolite. 

Fuu takes some time to share her photos with Shihomi-san and gets to see a more human side of her idol.

They also take a trip to visit a friend's cafe in the town over to try out some of her new sweets. The conversations there and along the way seem so light at first glance, but really carry a lot meaning in them that is both touching and inspiring.

are those...pocky in the middle?
I love the subtle values claim that this show consistently makes. It doesn't hit you over the head, but there is a light protest against being too carried away by the rush of possibility and missing out on how deep and wonderful the smaller and slower things of life can be.
deep.
