Non Non Biyori Nonstop Episode 9: The Adventures of Komari

A Komari episode. Lovely.

9A: Komari tried becoming a Ghostbuster. Natsumi invited her to go shopping with the family but Komari felt like staying home. Natsumi warned her about ghosts, particularly the zasshiki warashi that wasn’t affected by daylight. Komari once again denied the existence of the paranormal. What followed was a kind of homage to Paranormal Activity or whatever was the Japanese equivalent.

Once again Komari’s denial of spooks was put into question.

9B: Komari and The Champ agreed to knit gifts for each other but Komari wasn’t very good at it and the deadline had arrived.

Natsumi did her best to hype up Komari as a knitting pro until Komari couldn’t take anymore and told the truth. She tried to save face like a proper senpai by hiding her lack of knitting prowess as much as possible but couldn’t life any longer.

Of course The Champ didn’t think less of her beloved senpai and offered to help knit something together next time. After all, it meant more time with the senpai she loved.

9C: Komari wanted to cook for everyone. Natsumi and Best Boy of all Anime remembered what happened last time she cooked and begged Goddess Mom to show mercy but she supported Komari’s endeavors.

Komari had an existential crisis while trying to cook but fortunately she’s able to achieve victory…with help from Goddess Mom of course. Very sweet moment seeing them cook together. As someone who cooks for the family himself this hit me in the kokoro. Never hurts to ask for help. Good stuff as usual.
