Hachiware Awakens in Usagi's Crisis! Fans Rejoice at His Signature Move "Nantoka Nare~!!" in "Chiikawa" Episode 154

In episode 154 of the anime "Chiikawa," Chiikawa (CV. Haruka Aoki), Hachiware (CV. Makoto Tanaka), and Usagi (CV. Ari Ozawa) were depicted wielding deck brushes to take down a large bird.

Following episode 153 where the Pajama Party's members fled from the large bird, this episode finally shows the confrontation between the large bird and Chiikawa and friends. The three hold their deck brushes at the ready, but a major crisis arrives immediately. The large bird bites into Usagi's ear with a "twi" and begins dragging Usagi along.

Chiikawa and Hachiware attack the large bird while screaming "Uwaaaaa~!!" and "It's going to tear off! It's going to tear off!!" At this point, Hachiware realizes that attacking with the hard corner instead of the brush part would be more effective. Then, with the battle cry "Nantoka Nare~!!" he successfully delivers a powerful blow to the large bird.

In response to this scene, reactions on social media and elsewhere included "Hachiware-chan's signature move 'Nantoka Nare!!' appeared!" and "Hachiware is so smart!" as well as comments like "Usagi staying calm even while having his ear bitten is amazing" and "Usagi staying calm even in a crisis is incredible."
