Chiisai Shoppu/Funny

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


"Man the life boats! The ship is sinking fast!"

    • This exchange near the end when Hikari brings Hikari II back home for a very tired Shohei:

Shohei: Aww, nuts. I can't feed it anymore!
Hikari: I beg your pardon?
Shohei: Well, it's kind of a funny story...
Hikari: Funny? Venus flytraps eat flies, beetles, and meat like steak or hamburger!
Shohei: (to himself) Flies... beetles... hamburger? (out loud, with an Idea Bulb over his head) Oh yeah!!
Hikari: (sweat drops) Sometimes I worry about you.

  • "The Dentist": Edo and Ami going into Shohei's room, much to their big brother's dismay.
  • The hot springs scene in "Christmas".
  • A good majority of "Valentine's Day".
  • "Cherry Blossom Birthday": Shohei and Hikari II arguing over the definition of a birthday.
    • Inumaru dashing off to Hikari's house while Shohei dangles from the big dog's leash.
    • The first conversation between Inumaru and Hikari's poodle Charlotte.
  • The entirety of "The Hot Summer Day".
  • "Inspection Day": Hikari II slapping Shohei across the face with one of its vines.
    • Mr. Gardenia telling Shohei not to argue with the plant.
    • The kids with the water balloons.
    • Hikari snapping Shohei out of his Heroic BSOD over the Sharks destroying the flower shop with their sludge bomb.
  • Once the story got to "Souls?", the funny just seems to come when needed. The first CMoF has Orin complaining about his day at work.
    • The other has Orin nudging Unagi in the stomach after the latter says what the former really does in front of an amnesiac Hikari.
  • "The Meek Shall Inherit": This exchange:

[[spoiler: Mr. Gardenia: Did that plant just..? No. No, that's just silly. Plants can't talk!
Hikari II: Except me.
Gardenia: WHAA?! What do you want? And how did you get so big so fast?
Hikari II: I want to eat souls! Yours might sustain me for... how old are you?
Gardenia: What are you implying?
Hikari II: Your soul might hold me over for quite a while with your girth!
Gardenia: HOW... dare you! I resent that!]]

    • Shohei's reaction to inheriting the flower shop after Mr. Gardenia's death.
  • The restaurant scene in "Don't Feed the Plants".
