Hanasaku Iroha receives the inevitable beach episode treatment in its 14th outing, with the cast gamely donning bikinis or stripping off as appropriate.
I think for me this has to be the best series of the season. Excellent animation and storyline, well developed characters from optpmistic Ohana to pissy Minko.
I'm so happy it's 26 episodes!
I'm pleasantly surprised they actually went for a beach swimsuit oriented episode considering how ho-hum the attire was for the majority of the series.
Then again, swimsuit is just an aspect of real life for women during summertime. Just happens to be a perfect excuse for fanservice.
I'm surprised to see such a drastic increase in fan service from this show. But at least it's not absurdly inappropriate service like most other anime of the genre.
Not only does that not make sense, it goes against the charm that swimsuits with skirted bottoms have. It combines the bikini and miniskirt into one outfit, making something really stylish.
I like how they keep the fanservice under control seriously, unlike some.. (many) other series.

Season?! You mean year, right?

Nako ftw.
drillhead ftw
Ohana and Yuina, I'd like to see some yuri soon. I can't wait for the fan art to come out.
i think they make stuff like this with the fan doujins in mind
Still and sadly, not enough yuri in this show. But I definitely want to watch this hot beach episode. Summer sure is a great season.

i didn't really need a beach fanservice episode for this one, i just like the characters too much
Ohana sure is an awesome character.
Mandatory beach service followed by mandatory hot spring/bathhouse service. This episode has everything.
After watching Seikon no Qwaser everything else seems too tame.
....no visible camel humps or nipple hard-ons. fail.
#015 is the highlight of the episode. XDDD
No Nakochi bikini means I ended up watching this episode feeling a bit unsatisfied. lol
Then again, it's completely in-character for a shy girl like Nakochi to be in a regular sukumizu (school swimsuit) instead of a bikini.
Yuri google - on!
Its "Goggle". You've been lurking too much.
The episode we've been waiting for. Will be pausing the episode throughtout to take screenshots. :D
Amazingly, I can fap to this........
Pic 015: "Damn, it feels good to be Ohana."
Yuina..oh baby
Finally...FINALLY!!!
Oh my god, what the hell is up with pic 32.
Dat ass.
You take it out of my mouth.
That's what she said?
Pic #14 face expression is full of win!
Oh sry thought you meant the 9th face, that looks like a real troll face o.o
I guess he mixed up cus every pic is numbered as 14-something.
Ep 14, you know, like...
What's really winning is Ohana's pimpin' expression in pic 015.
could be new art of trolling face :D
#14: Dat ass! BE
I'm getting bored of these "Mio" type characters -_-'''
"MIO" type Characters existed before K-On. and MINKO isnt event close to being a "MIO" Character
only beached whales wear bikini skirts
Not only does that not make sense, it goes against the charm that swimsuits with skirted bottoms have. It combines the bikini and miniskirt into one outfit, making something really stylish.
looks like just another obligatory beach episode with "convenient" censorship whenever the girls change or bathe.
You could not be more wrong!
