| Since Sakuna had departed for the island, Kokorowa's days had been filled with constant change. She had been recognized by Kamuhitsuki and was making a name for herself in the capital. However, when she heard that Sakuna would be temporarily returning, she realized she was feeling unsettled. Sakuna was coming back to the capital to report on her activities on Hinoe Island. While Sakuna was excited to reunite with Kokorowa after such a long time, Kokorowa couldn't hide her own unease. |

| Interesting reunion between Sakuna and Kokorowa. It's funny how emotional Tauemon gets all the time. He's always crying. |

| Kokorowa having screentime is always very nice. I was wondering about if was going to have less harvest season, which game-wise would be hardcore. But with this episode we had a 3-year time skip. Now is balanced again. |
 |
| 4 years later and the kids are still kids and the baby still a baby, guess since they're in heaven they don't grow. |
| Sakuna going back to the capital was a little unexpected, considering how she was kicked out previously, but due to the unrest of the demons, it made sense for her to return to give her report about the issue. This was another chill episode overall, where Sakuna and her friends finally got into a good rhythm in making rice and while the timeskip didn't show any of them look older, it did show that their efforts in making rice paid off. Amahoho might sound like a silly name, but it has proven to being a good success. Kokorowa, on the other hand, was pretty conflicted. She's a hard worker, but she always kept wondering why she wasn't as acknowledged as Sakuna was, despite being more committed to her role. The ending of the episode was certainly something, as a demon delivered a bag that says it contains rice inside. Considering she's in charge of making sure no demon gets into the capital, this should be worrying. |
| Its been years already, Sakuna i understand but the rest should get older lol. |
 |
| I was thinking, would Yui even age anyway? She's a crane transformed into a human, afterall. |
| Another chill episode. I was surprised when she visited the capital at first but it makes sense that she gone to tell about the demons. Love of rice is still increasing episode by episode. Kokorowa and Sakuna reunion was great.But she might be in danger now. |
| I need somebody who can love me at my worst No, I'm not perfect, but I hope you see my worth 'Cause it's only you, nobody new, I put you first And for you, girl, I swear I'll do the worst If you stay forever, let me hold your hand I can fill those places in your heart no else can Let me show you love, oh, I don't pretend, yeah I'll be right here, baby, you know I'll sink or swim |
| Seeing your harvest grow and improve its quality and quantity in the game was pretty rewarding, I always looked forward to the seeds mini game for some reason. Kokorowa don't do it!!!! |
| Kokorowa's jealousy starts...it's not gonna end well. So I guess the time skip starts and ended in the same episode with picture sequences instead of animations. That's the only part that was a bit disappointing. Still, things will unfold between Sakuna and Kokorowa soon, can't wait. Glad "Guidance" from the game OSTs is in this episode! One of my favourite tracks! |
 |
| I like how Kokorowa keeps snickering to herself that Sakuna enjoys something she wrote under a pseudonym. |

| Kokorowa's life has not been the same since Sakuna's ousting to the Isle of Demons, and her return to the Capital is a short-lived one, though she now understood her role as the Harvest Goddess, and being able to go back to her old lifestyle, even if it's a dream. Lots of stories to share between the two goddesses, and Lady Kamihitsuji's sudden appearance for Sakuna to compare between hers and her mother Toyohana's cooked rice, and it's quite the difference. Toyohana's rice is broght down to the village, and the others like Tauemon get teary-eyed enough for Sakuna to want to make better cultivated rice, which takes years to develop. Needless to say, they can't do much in the winter, but to prepare the crops when spring arrives again to be sold to the capital...as amahoho, something simple to remember by. But deep down, Kokorowa feels conflicted that a lazy bum like Sakuna, can be given the highest praise from Kamihitsuji enough to offer her an official post, despite the former having worked hard on her own accord as well. Kokorowa's conflict is something not easily resolved... |

| Kokorowa, stay away from that demon rabbit! |
