Binchou-tan 2
After getting all ready to go out Binchou-tan hitches a ride with a bird (for the price of an acorn) and goes to town to find some work.After looking through the window of a toy store, she goes to the job posting board, but she can't quite make it though the crowd. However, she manages to get some work that the others didn't want to do. What kind of work? Cleaning, gardening... then there are some things that only she can do -- staying in a shoe for some reason, staying in a bottle of water... interesting work, there. And how does she fit into places that small? (^^;;) For working she gets a good bit of rice. On the way home she stops by the toy store and finds some cute pantsu with various prints on them that she really likes. But she doesn't have enough money... luckily, she manages to find what she wants on sale. Binchou-tan goes back home and makes dinner then heads to bed. She then has a rather odd dream.. first dreaming that the frog she liked was somehow spitting out bags of rice.. then another one where she was on a raft in the ocean with lots of those other weird things around. Binchou-tan seems to be sleeping soundly :)
Well, I've got pretty much the same thoughts as last time so there's not much to say -- extremely kawaii and the quality of the animation is still quite high. Next time it looks like we'll be introduced to Kunugi-tan, Chiku-tan, and Chiku-tan's little sister, Chikurin. Looking forward to more cuteness :)
ok....i just have one question.
how big is she? O.o...
or the animals in the jungles are VERY big.....
Binchou-tan basically acts like the charcoal (binchoutan) on her head when she is doing the work that "only she can do." Binchoutan has a variety of use, like removing nasty smells or freshening the surroundings. Even Bin herself has used her binchoutan for cooking rice.
It's a very cute pun to make mini-Bin to stay in the shoes, the fridge and the water bottle. (^_^).
I think I figured out the shoe and water things, she's got a piece of binchoutan charcoal on her head and she's named after said charcoal and charcoal's good for eliminating odors and purifying water. I think it was a bit of a play on her name as well, or perhaps she really is a little charcoal girl. ^_^
What's up with the toy store selling panties? o_O
Ohhh I see...
about the panties, maybe is because the size (doll size)
Oh yeah, just remembered this. Binchou-tan really liked that strange creature in the inner tube she saw in the store window. That was on the pantsu she wanted initially. She ended up finding a pair with the toad on them (apparently she really likes toads too) that made her happy too. What was really sweet, and tied into that bizarre dream, was that by buying the pantsu she got a sticker with the other thing on it sealing her bag shut. I remembered that at the end it showed her clutching the bag (still sealed shut with that sticker) in her sleep. :)
Binchou-tan's size seems to be variable. At times she appears to be the height of a small child (one good example is when she was trying to get the job board in this episode) then at other times she appears to be smaller than a doll (for example fitting into that shoe).
I don't think they're worrying about size too much, either that or all the animators flunked their perspective classes. ^_-
凄く可愛いびん！！！ 萌え過ぎるびん！！！
プリントパンツも欲しいびん！！！
By the I've encountered this term マターリ (mata-ri) to describe Binchoutan. And maybe we should start using "-bin" at the end of sentences too. :)
Pity-based anime this may be, but I laughed sadistically when binchou tried hard to get into the job crowd (read:unemployment queue) and failed...
