Not much to say about Non Non Biyori Repeat other than that it's hands down the best anime of the season, along with it's best opening song of the season

I love Non Non Biyori. I am just a tad disappointed that Repeat is more of a prequel. I wished they had just picked things up form the end of its previous season.

That said, it's still one of the best anime of this season, maybe even the best. The opening song is once again wonderful, but man, those are some sad lyrics! They give me the idea that the whole show is the memory of someone looking back, missing the good old days of romping through the hills with friends.

If people ask me why I like anime, I just point them to show like Non Non Biyori and Hibike! Euphonium. If they don't understand by then, there's nothing more I can do.

What if they want to look forward and don't want to look back?

I totally agree. It's been absolutely incredible so far.

I don't think it's a prequel, but rather runs concurrently with the first season. Hotaru shows up just like she did before, but we're getting a different set of stories. That really confused me at first.

I'm really looking forward to a shot of peace every Monday night again.

It's awesome fun and it's not a prequel at all. It is as exactly as it says in the bottle: it's a repeat of the same year but showing some other things that happened. It's something so new it needs a proper name.

That's what I watch it for. I don't mind a new-perspective script since they are doing it right. And I don't want those girls to ever grow up.
