No-rin - ep09

The episode was interesting because it was misleading, in the beginning everything seem to point to it being a beach episode. Where they are making all these plans to go to the beach for Minori sake because she has never been. However misfortune strikes when a typhoon comes ruining their plans, this drive Minori crazy which cause her to run out into the rain when Kousaku comments that it looks like a sea out there because of the flooding. This cause a chain of event to unfold where everyone gets caught up in Minori madness in believe that they are on the beach. Although brought back to their sense later on when they realize what this weather will do to the rice fields.

The rest of the episode revolves around their efforts to save the rice fields instead of their disappointment on being unable to go to the beach. However most of this goes smoothly until Yoshida bring to Kousaku's attention that there is something serious wrong with D-class's field. It seems that Kanegami has gotten greedy again and planted a fast grown crop of rice but the problem is that the stock are too tall now and will be destroyed by this fierce storm. In the end Kousaku come up with a plan the save them by using the schools mini-bus to shield them from most of the winds. In the end for their effort to save the fields the school rewards them by giving them a free trip to the beach. Although it ends ironically because on the way their another Typoon hits preventing Minori once again from reaching to beach.
