Houkago Teibou Nisshi - Episode 8 - Natsumi Hina High Five


Hina and Natsumi were happy to find out the Breakwater Club had a clubroom at school too.




It turns out the Breakwater Club's clubroom at school was just a cabinet with some supplies in the nurse's office since Sayaka-sensei, the school nurse, is also their advisor. This meant the girls could go fishing in the rain without getting so wet from going all the way to the marina where their actual clubroom is. Sayaka was most concerned they were stealing some of her drinking snacks to use as bait.


The fishing for the rainy day was catching shrimp under river bridges. They have small rods and hooks for the critters, which makes the fishing look more like hunting.



It took a while before Hina got the timing right of hooking the shrimp after they took in the bait. Unlike fish, the hook doesn't pierce the shrimp's shell, so catching one also meant being quick with putting them in the catch bucket. After Hina practiced both steps, the girls had a fine time catching a big haul of shrimp.


The next day, after letting the shrimp expel all their dirt and muck in a water tank, Hina made Makoto do her own shrimp cooking show. Makoto blushed heavily at public speaking, even when it was in front of people she already knew. The most important step is using cooking sake to get the shrimp drunk before frying them up. Makoto called it, "calming them down."
