天下制覇

 I’d be freaked out too.

Impressions:

This isn’t going to go down as one of my favorite episodes of this show for a number of reasons. First off, the production absolutely plummeted from last week. Hell, the entire opening 90 second or so sequence was essentially two shots, one which was barely drawn. The second is that I’m really not liking Nazuna nor Nori yet. Nazuna seems unable to open her mouth without emitting a shrill whining noise, while Nori hasn’t really done a single distinguishing thing so far. So far, both of them feel completely superfluous to the show, like they’ll disappear next week and not be mentioned for another month.

Reasons three through eighteen can be summarized by a lack of Hiro and Yoshinoya this week, although I do find it amusing that Hiro gets molesty in the morning. The second half of the episode was a little more engaging, but not much. You can only make getting a haircut so interesting, especially when the end result looks exactly the same as they started out, only with a couple more sparklies. I’m up for setting fire to Miyako again at least.

Preview:

More Yoshinoya in the preview than the entire rest of the episode. Boo.
