My guess is...

Spoiler for Speculations:

This is where we'll have the wrestling match scene.

Can't wait!

[ReddyRedWolf]

Dammit she's one of those characters whose flag can't be raised.

Spoiler for Nikaido:

[Shiroth]

Nikaido and Keima have some of the most hilarious interaction in this whole series.

[Midonin]

Spoiler for Kaminomi II-X - See You on the Moon:

Not at the same time, but the combination of robots and basketball triggered some memories in me. The first 2/3rds or so of this episode had some pretty good comedic moments, such as Jun not holding the PFP the right way, and Keima's attempts at doing bad, only to realize he is both a protagonist and not a protagonist. Given his game obsession, he's closer to the protagonist's best friend, really. All the stuff with Nikaido was great as well, including her "information".

On the subject of Jun, interesting that her revelation should come about so soon after yesterday. However, she doesn't seem to be hiding any grudges or troubled pasts (mostly) beneath that exterior. Her passionate self is real, and I admire her for that. So many times a passionate exterior is just a front, but why not, when that passion is stripped away, have more passion hiding beneath it? I sympathize with her to quite a degree. She shouldn't end this route by removing her passion - for one, that would be tremendously stupid - just rechannel it into something that benefits everyone.

Jun, go for it!

Spoiler for Kami 10:

The humors were definitely up there this episode. Well Jun is a good and caring teacher.. just too passionate towards solving problems students have that it gets on their toes. I mean I would get really annoyed too if someone kept on approaching me with that mindset though the intention is a good one. Also pushing ideals/expectations on others is always a no-no, which Jun's memory of her basketball team also seems to suggest.

[kitten320]

Lol just how did Nikaid make to the teacher's seat with her attitude
She and Keima work really well together...

Poor Jun... she does get on students backs a bit too much. If she were to lower that passion a bit, I'm sure she would be fine.

P.S. Why do I have a feeling that next week episode will start with gloomy Jun dressing up?

GIANT ROBO!!!

As always, nice additions form the manga.
I didn't like Jun that much in the manga. I found her a lot more pushy than Kanon (mainly because Kanon had better reasons to be pushy). Like Keima, she a person of ideals. But unlike Keima, she tries to force her ideals into others and doesn't see their reality as true as her.
One episode to go and probably another last one to close the season.

Hopefully that reference will push the people who haven't seen Giant Robo in the right direction to do just that.

So Jun is just too passionate and gets depressed. At least Keima has some info o her w to work his magic. Best scenes were with Keima and Nikaido, she's quite hot.

[Echoes]

Great episode.

It's almost painful to watch Jun's optimistic, albeit a bit too pushy, spirit being gradually broken despite her best intentions. She's such an angel. She looks too cute holding that trophy.

Pretty funny preview this time. This is looking to be the best arc of the season as far as I'm concerned.

[Master Chibi]

Jesus hell I would have just Lupin'd myself right inbetween Nikaido's drooping wondermelons in that shot. Holy fuck.

[Decagon]

The 'de' transition screens were a bit much in this episode. You'd think they could have someone to make more than one of those pics this far in the season.

[Master Chibi]

They did though~

[ID555]

I hereby dub this the sexy teachers/OL arc.......mmmm

Seriously this , her "prices" for information to Keima was so epic.

And Jun's past and current issues are quite clear from this episode, and she's a fairly likeable character too.

Understatement of the century. ^^

[MeoTwister5]

If I had teachers this hot in high school I'd have had better grades.

Probably.

[Khu]

Don't think so, too busy staring at places other than the blackboard XD

[ID555]

Yeah, you won't be getting better grades, but you'll definitely not miss a day of school...
