天下制覇

The Penis game is way more awesome for school bus trips than freakin’ Shiratori.

Impressions:

Well, on one hand, the angst level of this episode was down about 14 notches, so that made things quite a bit more enjoyable to watch for most of the episode. On the other hand, it seemed like the way they’ve decided to go forward is to have Ryuuji and Minori pretend like her shooting him down just didn’t happen at all. The only important thing of note that happened this episode was Taiga deciding to cut Ryuuji loose from taking care of her… which is somewhat ridiculous since they still end up together half the time because they’re neighbors and both want a slice of Kitamura pie.

I was still pleased with this episode though, because it had something that this show has been lacking for a couple weeks and the reason why I liked it to begin with: fun. Minori was silly, Ami was playful (mostly) as well as extra hot in her 80s frazzled hairbun-ponytail, teach was crazy, and lackey #01 repeatedly and forcefully explored his femininity in addition to harassing Taiga by making her say ‘penis.’ I certainly wouldn’t mind in the least if they kept the silliness up and the angst low for the remainder of the run, but I’m not taking any sucker bets here.

A school ski trip is such a liability lawsuit waiting to happen.
