Hanasaku Iroha

[Kraco]

Frankly, I didn't like this episode. It's like everybody (or rather, the females) were on some drugs, behaving excessively elatedly and lightheadedly. To be point they forgot their work, despite the fact in all the previous eps they were so serious and proud of their jobs they couldn't even have a vacation without working. Maybe the best individual example was the fricking Strike Witches training of trying to fly with a broom... What the hell was that all about?

A most weird episode.

Necessary Fanservice Ep but "Hanasaku Iroha" style

Talk about details: why have a crumbling Peugeot 205 CTI in Japan, just to be very original and have some kind of French touch for a Japanese film director?

Things like that only increase the feeling of realism. Small deviations, unexpected details, personality quirks... they are omnipresent in this world, so you must also include them in fiction if you want the audience to feel the setting is natural.
