“Tamako Market” Episode 9 Recap: “Singing a Love Song”

Discouraged Anko is feeling lonely after finding out her crush Yuzuki will be transferring schools. Tamako and Mochizo offer their advice to Anko. Also, Tamako learns more about her mother’s song, which she is often humming to herself.
(From the official episode guide.)

Little Anko’s sweet puppy love seems to be coming to a bittersweet end. However, one way or another, Tamako and Mochizo want to help Anko.

This episode also tells another love story. Tamako finds out that the mystery song her late mother used to sing to her was actually created by her father. Mamedai had written the song as a way to express his feelings he couldn’t easily convey with just conversation. Over time, the song was passed on to his daughter Tamako, and while Mamedai seemed embarrassed, he also seemed happy, though he tried to hide it.

Surely, everyone falls in love. Someone will come to like someone else. This episode is a tale of two love stories.
