Warmed by Korilakkuma's Free-Spirited Nature! "Too Cute" Reaction to Sudden Tackle – "Rilakkuma" Episode 4

Episode 4 of the anime "Rilakkuma" has aired, featuring a heartwarming scene of a relaxed tea party with Rilakkuma and friends, including the anime debuts of Korilakkuma and Awawaneko.

The series is narrated by singer-songwriter Lilas Ikuta, who is also known as the vocalist for the musical unit YOASOBI. In the previous episode, Episode 3, Rilakkuma was seen clinging to the leg of a giant Kiiroitori as they flew off to parts unknown.

The beginning of Episode 4 starts with a scene of Kiiroitori, now the small size of a chick, walking through the forest with Rilakkuma. Suddenly, a character wearing a red hood tackles Rilakkuma.

The identity of this character is Korilakkuma. After jumping off the Rilakkuma she just knocked over, she waves her hand as if calling them over. Rilakkuma and Kiiroitori follow after the free-spirited Korilakkuma as she picks flowers and waves at honeybees.

Accompanying Ikuta's narration asking "I wonder where she's going," Korilakkuma leads them to a small cabin with adorable bear-shaped windows. Awawaneko is waiting there, and everyone enjoys a peaceful tea party together.

In response to this series of scenes, viewers have flooded social media with overall impressions of the show such as "just so cute," "so healing," and "a project that makes you feel at ease."
