Vegetables? Isn't he the curry fairy? (Watch season 3 if you don't get it.)

playmaker2k · 2013-02-03, 18:33

i saw that, but remember curry has vegetables in it too.

He also got her into eating carrots. look it up.

I think Chiaki would be scared of Hosaka if she faced him closely.
Even though she acts 'highly' of herself, we're reminded consistently that she is still just an elementary school student.

I think she would mind her manners, especially around someone around Haruka's age bracket. You rarely ever see her interact with Haruka's friends either, other than Hayami.

Clarste · 2013-02-03, 21:16

Chiaki already met Hosaka. She thought he was awesome, in a sort of childish way. If Hosaka became closer to the family I think she'd probably treat him how she treats Fujioka.

That's true...but then all Hosaka would have to do is admit his intentions to her beloved Haruka-neesama and Hosaka would have to rely more on stripping to charm Chiaki

Kana would just troll Hosaka all day just like Hayami.

That's what I meant. She'd get along fabulously with him, because then she'd have another victim to troll

sikvod00 · 2013-02-03, 22:50

I believe Hosaka is "immune" to trolling in the sense that he doesn't react negatively to the hilarious situations that others (mainly that one girl) get him into. Trolling is best when the victim realizes they are\have been trolled; there's the satisfaction of provoking someone and making them feel humiliated. But Hosaka is so naive and straightforward and so much into his delusions\fantasies that he doesn't consider that he is being tricked or played for a fool. He goes with the flow and "adapts" to any situation as if that was his intent all along (e.g. accepting the kettle and totally forgetting it was a plate). It also helps that his sense of dignity and shame are not of this world. That's what makes him both cool and a loser, IMO.

Requiem-x · 2013-02-04, 00:10

Late to the party, I know, but when did Fujioka become so desperate, clingy, manly and hilarious? Ok, I can figure out the desperate part by myself, I mean, it's been three/two seasons with no progress concerning Kana, so yeah, the guy is losing it. What I never expected was for him to go full Hosaka because of it, but my god, I sure welcome it!

I expected nothing but a couple giggles from this episode, all of them from Keiko dealing with Kana, but I literally couldn't stop laughing throughout the entire first segment, all thanks to Fujioka. And then the laughter began all over again with the plan roulette segment and his obsession with famires. And of course, the end with him going insane with the handholding was beautiful. Everything worked so well it's hard to believe. Props to Akira for doing his best to help the guy without getting abused (too much).

I think we can all be 100% sure that Feel is doing things right. Here's to some more hilarity (and Mako-chan) next week

Ithekro · 2013-02-04, 00:12

His Hosaka turn I think is how he interpreted Akira's advise.

Clarste · 2013-02-04, 00:39

As much as I love Hosaka, I don't think the show needs two of them. Fujioka's funnier when Kana's the one being oblivious.

Nah, Fujioka is not a replica of Hosaka, in that he is not as confident as Hosaka. I don't think anyone could rival his level of outrageous antics. Perhaps Kana, I guess.

Sackett · 2013-02-04, 09:30

Hmmm... perhaps the Minami brothers have some sort of pheromone effect that causes their sempai to go a little crazy?

Fujioka- stop hanging out with Akira before the effect becomes permanent.

Ithekro · 2013-02-04, 15:41

In looking back to the first season, Fujioka was always that excitable when he accomplishes one of his Kana tasks. He did pretty much the same form of cheering when he finally gave her a present (for New Years instead of Christmas due to his lateness).

I am still not sure if Akira knows why Fujioka seems angry at him all the time (the Love Square between Akira, Fujioka, Kana, and Riko, of which Kana is oblivious and everyone else has misunderstanding).

Anh_Minh · 2013-02-04, 16:39

I'm not sure we'd be right to call it a love square. The only line between Kana and Akira is in Fujioka's head.

X207 · 2013-02-04, 23:09

lol, looks like Fujioka had a Hoasaka effect. he was more sucessful yet overreacting too much its creepy. the episode was very funny though i dont think i can take this as an every ep behaviour.

Elestia · 2013-02-04, 23:22

Some of the gags were really drawn out. Not as funny as the previous episodes.

Ithekro · 2013-02-05, 03:12

I assume others noticed that in Fujioka's imagination, Riko and Keiko seem to be lesbian lovers.

FateAnomaly · 2013-02-05, 06:22

I like fujioka and kana skits best. Poor fujioka, its tough to love someone so dense. Yet, if he but tell kana in a straightforward way, he would probably succeed. Of course, that is not gonna ever happen since the show trives on misunderstanding and not romance.

Akira type is Riko. Though he is so desperate Keiko is fine too.

Keiko surreptitiously supports Fujioka in getting Kana even if she knows Riko harassing her about Fujioka.

But this episode seems to me with Fujioka's Hosaka-like antics Keiko is starting to notice Fujioka.

Snuffle · 2013-02-06, 07:57

Fujioka can't become a clone of Hosaka, it's impossible, futile, unachievable. Hosaka's DNA is something that can't be understood, he is the true final boss, the untouchable, the undefeatable. Don't even try to use your lvl.99 analyze skill on him, he's beyond human comprehension.

Just imagine if we took the setting in Miname-ke and switch it to a shoujo genre. All the girls in the class will be fawning at him. Atsuko would be adoring and taking care of him (I personally ship her and Hosaka together). Maki would be jealous, Hayami and maybe Haruka would try to steal him, and Chiaki would see him as the true father figure. And of course Hosaka would be the main character.

maximilianjenus · 2013-02-06, 11:23

so, now that fujioka's arc is over, whose arcs are left ? I don't remember the actual name but the second-oldest minami brother still has not had his arc, right ? so it's him and who else ?
