Thus is the magic of Kamichu!; a series that could have easily been forgettable and mediocre was immortalized by the impressive production efforts from new animation studio, Brains Base! I think this scene is a great example of that; it’s a mundane moment given life and character well beyond the usual TV-anime standards. More than that, it’s just a great example of animation full stop.
Regretfuly, I have to disagree at least about the big picture. While the production efforts were indeed impressive for newcomers, they fell short of the existing standard in many places (the Mikofrog was especially bad). But the worst about Kamichu can't be captured in screencaps, because it was in its patchwork storytelling a-la Berserker Base.
In the end, I rewatched ep.12 a few times (the transfer for the convention), each time being ticked off by the off-model, stout characters in the ending welcome. Forgettable? Hardly. Cannot forget such a failure to meet the expectations that Kamichu's own ep.1 set.
