English Dub Review: Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear “Bear, Raises a Bird (?)”

Overview 

After Telmina recovers from her illness, Yuna uses her new Bear Transfer Gate skill to travel to Kai’s village in order to get some eggs. The next day, Yuna is out buying lunch when she sees some orphans waiting for leftovers. She then heads to the orphanage where she learns that the feudal lord named “Cliff” has stopped supporting them. Later, she decides to confront Cliff herself to find out why…

Our Take

This was quite a wholesome episode. Yuna is such a selfless character, not that I’m surprised that she wants to help the less fortunate such as an orphanage. In many ways, this felt like an episode of another anime I previously covered, and yet while the story was similar, the outcome and plot structure were very different in a lot of ways.

I also really liked Yuna’s moment when she confronted Lord Cliff and Cliff’s response to her concerns. You can tell he’s a decent individual. And the moment he recognized Yuna’s conviction he took it upon himself and investigated to not only discover the problem but the severity of it.

Overall, this was a decent episode. Yuna not only did Yuna went out of her way to help the orphanage, but I respect Lord Cliff for accepting responsibility and exercised his authority with humane justice.
