Personally, if episode 2 was the first episode instead of the actual first one, I would have had a much, much higher opinion of the show. I think this was a great episode. Also, any man who is cross-dresses just to get closer to the girl of his dreams deserves at least some consideration by said girl. Unless of course you're a Mako-chan and you enjoy it too much.
Looks like I'm back on the boat for this show.
