Funny thing is I imagined that too

This show is getting better for me. A major point is Run isn't being in another dimension so much (like falling out windows, wtf). I also felt Nagi had much better presence this ep and Toru's interactions always amuse me.

Neither!

All these are being included with the bonus CDs on the DVD/Blu-Ray releases.

Ep3:

How ironic, Tooru gets stalked by her new friend!

I'm enjoying this show immensely, but one gripe I have is these music video inserts in every episode.... at least the songs are pretty good.

She's Ao-hime now?

But yeah, her arsenal of voices is impressive - Tooru and Korone (Daimaou) both have monotone voices, yet they're still distinct from the other.

Awww Tooru's got a new friend. She needs friends her own age!

What's NO MUSIC, NO LIFE? Is this a reference to something?

Rice_slayer · 2011-04-22, 15:13

Based on what I can find, it appears to be the slogan of Tower Records Japan. I know I've heard it referenced in other anime, too.

Though it may just be an existing catchphrase that Tower Records decided to use.

Run I wounder how she even gets dress in the morning if she all way half asleep

Spoiler:

Ah, so Tooru can actually be nice sometimes. Nice to see her help out the teacher. Too bad that Nagi and Yuuko caught her while she was acting so nice to her peers. Aww, Tooru also made a new friend, Yutaka. The problem is that Yutaka is just as interested in her as Tooru is to Run. Tooru cannot cope with this, so she runs away and meets up with the usual gang. Nice to see her crushing Yuuko's back; they get along well.

The new health teacher sure is...odd, having a bang/forehead fetish and all. I liked how he named Tooru by looking at her hair. That must have shocked her badly. Also, he has a weak body. Run shows Nagi and Yuuko her new I-Pod, but, as the airhead she is, she does not know how to use it. I give Nagi permission to be angry at her and do anything to her. And to heighten her anger, she does not have a computer, making Nagi even more angry. Somehow, Tooru's long sleeves can stretch quite a distance. Yutaka tries to get her to be with her by tying her sleeves around her waist, but Tooru escapes.

Nagi seems to really not like bloomers, for bloomers=panties. Never have Run as a partner in stretching; many things can go wrong. Yutaka thinks Tooru is staring at her when, in actuality, she is staring at Run. Nice for the math teacher to choose her for standing up to volunteer to solve the problem. Run, is quite a devious girl, making Yuuko look as if she was not wearing anything underneath her shirt. When Tooru does this, she looks like she is wearing a dress. That must be a really over-sized P.E. t-shirt. Yutaka was about to make Tooru's life a living hell, but Mipo? comes in stops her from doing anything.

Meanwhile, back at the class, Nagi and Yuuko go to the infirmary, but that man is knocked out due to his weakness. Luckily, Run comes in to help her, but she steps on the new health teacher as well. He actually is honored that Run stepped on him? This is quite disconcerting. I think Nagi and Yuuko officially agree that he is creepy. Tooru is having a hard time trying to teach Yutaka. Luckily, Mipo is there to get her out of that mess. Tooru seems to like company though. And Yuuko taps out to the Bear Hug by Tooru.

Oh Tooru, I totally can relate with how my cousin bought a fancy new iPod, but then disn't know at all how to use/put songs on it, so I ended up having to be the one who did it for her.

She could dress herself before she went to sleep.

Some amazing moments in this episode, the very beginning started with a lol from me when she grabbed the elementary school student and started walking off. That school nurse guy may be kind of creepy, but his characters pretty funny. This is getting better each week. ^^

therationalpi · 2011-04-24, 09:05

Anyone else get a nostalgic sensation from the opening song?

I think that's 90% of the reason I'm watching this show. The opening comes on and I feel all warm and fuzzy, like I wrapped myself up in my favorite blanket.

If this isn't Hide Your Lesbians yuri then I don't know what is.

Good to see A Channel expand its cast considerably. That helps a lot to maintain viewer interest, while opening up a lot of great potential scenarios that can be heartwarming and/or comedic.

Love the irony surrounding Tooru's situation here.

Tooru has a crush on a lovable airhead type named Run. Tooru views Run's friend Yuko as a threat to her yuri friendship with Run (at least this was the case originally).

Now, a lovable airhead named Yutaka seems to have a crush on Tooru, which Tooru is exasperated by. Yutaka's friend Miho isn't entirely pleased by this, lol.

Simply lovely irony here, very amusing.

And then you have the hilariously creepy Mr. Sato... I think that he's the otaku touch-point character here, lol.

Long story short, this is a funny and heartwarming show so far. A pleasant and enjoyable watch.

Besides Tower Records, there is also an anime information site called "No Anime, No Life."

I thought Fukuhara Kaori pronounced that line extremely well: fairly accurate, and deeply cute.

For names/pics of seiyuus for the new characters, check the A-Channel link at the bottom of my sig.
