Koharu demonstrates the most critical step before casting a fly rod: make sure your rear is clear!

The second episode of Slow Loop gave us the official opening credits sequence. A tan redhead oneesan sits at a bar with her bartender friend. When do we see Ichika Fukumoto? Soon, I hope. Hiyori, Koharu, and Koi give us previews of the outfits they'll wear during the anime season.

We met Hiyori's longtime friend Koi on the first day of school. She works at the family fishing shop, but not by choice. Her fishing maniac father often abandons the store to go fishing! Koharu liked hearing stories about her stepsister Hiyori. But she felt left out when Koi and Hiyori didn't explain their inside jokes.

Hiyori took Koharu to her favorite spots she shared with her late father. That smoothed over the distance Koharu felt while Koi and Hiyori talked about old times. When Hiyori and Koharu went fishing with Koi's father, Koi felt left out. She hadn't enjoyed fishing for a long time, but now that Hiyori is teaching her new stepsister how to fish, she wants to get back into it. She'll probably spend more time with her father too.

The end credits show Koharu, Hiyori, and Koi enjoying a slideshow of their recent fishing trip memories. I still want to see Ichika drinking beer as soon as possible!
