Horses!!!

Yay~! Thank goodness some of the horses escaped the mushrooms and survived the forest fire!! I totally love horses, so I was really sad when so many of them died. It's quite nice how the foal greeted them, but decided to stay with its new "mother" nevertheless. The interaction between Hana and her "kid" is just too cute. But really, it's absolutely about time Hana names the foal!!

Amazing scene, Tsunomata riding in with that horse herd all relaxed, just like he does such things on regular basis! XD How the hell did he persuade the horse to take him and Hibari along on its back? Well, of course those horses have never been hunted by humans, but aren't wild animals usually a bit more wary towards strangers..? The neighbors' horses on the meadow next to our house never approach us unless we offer them something to eat (and even then, they leave again right away), normally horses have an instinct to shy away from unknown creatures. But, oh well. LOVED this scene!!

Also, that double-spread with those animals and the moment where Aramaki and Hana reconciled with a major league style fist were really great. A big thumbs-up for everyone involved with the cleaning, you're doing a really great job!!

Right, in our area there are some former peatlands as well. In old times, people used to harvest, dry and store those clumps and burned them in winter. I guess now they realized this possibility, once they settle down they will return during the next dry season and harvest some peat. It's really interesting how Tamura-sama points out the many varying ways of nature to feed its children.

By the way, I know of a really great series about a young woman in the Stone Age which accurately describes many ways of surviving in the wilderness, including a vast knowledge about herbs, fire cooking methods, hunting and amateur animals taming. I totally loved this book series too, it's been written by Jean M. Auel (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean_M._Auel) and the first volume is "The Clan of the Cave Bear" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Clan_of_the_Cave_Bear). I can totally recommend this series to you!! It's so popular it's even been translated in various languages.

Thank goodness the rashes are gone too! I'd been quite worried about that.

Hana seemed to be quite glad and surprised when she learned Ango and Ryou had been driven out of the community, wasn't she? I had the impression Hana totally didn't expect the entire community to stand up to Ango/Ryou for her sake. She's completely underestimating her own popularity.

Hana was way too focused about the loss of Aramaki's dogs and afraid of Aramaki making her responsible for it. But fortunately Aramaki's heart is way too big to get mad at her for that. Instead, he worried about her again right away... he is just such a wonderful, nice person. I'd so love to have a boyfriend like him! :-D

By the way, that girlfriends moment when Fujiko and Chisa huddled with her once Hana realized everyone knew about the rape incident was really cute. I love those friendship scenes! Though Chisa really seems to have looked forward to give it to Ango, eh...? She seemed to really regret missing that opportunity. I always suspected she had quite a wild nature under that calm shell of hers. XD I also pointed out my theory in the spoilers page for Chisa on the 7 Seeds Wiki: http://7-seeds.wikia.com/wiki/Spoilers_Chisa_Taiami (By the way, all the Team Spring members' spoiler pages are completed now as well.)

But I'm sorta worried about what's gonna happen should Hana come across the former camp of Summer B and discover Chimaki's carving... she will be certainly most afraid that Ango will try to kill Arashi just how it almost really happened. And being completely helpless since she has no idea where to look for Team Summer B, she'll sure hate that.

LOL for the idea of making the bug lead the way! That sure was unexpected. But to think that a bug can become as big as her own hand! I've never seen beetles as big as that - probably an evolved version. Fujiko's and Chisa's faces really cracked me up when they were looking at that new pet of Hana's. ;-D "wild child" Hana, eh? That totally fits her. She really belongs to this new world bursting with life. So many animals! Wonderful moment when they all went towards the ocean.

Hibari looked just as stubborn as ever, didn't she? She's really a cute little hedgehog. When I see her, it always reminds me of this pic with the baby hedgehog looking all prickly (wanted to link it up, but for some reason I can't access the Characters Animals Thread anymore... so annoying!! I wonder why? Can you guys still open that thread?

Hibari's thoughtful face in that last part made me think that maybe they're quite close to Sado already? It could be that they decide to go to the island to escape the fire for now. I wonder what's awaiting our friends there... it's probably a new arc, then. By the way, are we still in the Awakening Insects Arc or is it already a new chapter?

Thank you very much for this wonderful surprise, Panda-chan and team! I was really happy when that new chap came out so fast although all of you have so much work to do.

I'll continue completing the 7 Seeds Wiki as far as possible meanwhile, and then finally get around to writing the publisher letter. By the way, does anyone know already which response Viz had towards the many people voting for 7 Seeds on Facebook?

See (and read) ya,
