"Free hugs" is actually a Tokyo thing. There's a fairly famous guy doing it in Shibuya, and a bunch of copycats have sprung up.

Not only in Tokyo. I'm sure I saw it in other places. At least once in Milan, for starters.

Anyway, this whole episode was hilarious . From the opening skit (and the way they went back to the old protagonists) to the crazy Edo nonsense bits to Choromatsu's self awareness, which was SO EFFIN' TRUE .

The sound of water


Dayon!

Of course Karamatsu is already doing the free hugs thing XD

[kuromitsu]

Oh my god, the new ending version is for the F6!! Oh dear, oh dear... XDDD I can't wait to hear the rest...

I'm a bit disappointed that they didn't do a Valentine's Day Special, but the Choromatsu segment almost made up for it. The jidaigeki skits were funny, too, but there was an unforgivable lack of Osomatsu and Karamatsu. I mean, come on, how can the corrupt official character not be played by Osomatsu? Especially as even the joshimatsu skit mentioned Osoko doing time for embezzling money.

Anyway, the main dish was Choromatsu Rising, and it was hilarious and spot-on. Oh, poor Choromatsu, don't worry, I think most people understand your plight more than you'd think... I wish the other brothers had more screentime, but I guess the skit had to feature the two most shamelessly scummy brothers to play off Choromatsu's excessive self-consciousness. Todomatsu, you're such a horrible person, and I love you for it. And why am I not surprised that his self-awareness is all pink and sparkly. And Choromatsu's plan of going on a trip to find himself was probably funnier than intended on Kamiya Hiroshi's voice (or was I the only one who had a sudden Honey and Clover flashback? )

At least he's more honest about it than Choromatsu.

Btw come to think of it, so far Karamatsu has had the most success with women, no? By a certain sense of "success", anyway. But he did get a date on Christmas (OK, so she swindled him, but it was a date! after a fashion), he managed to get a girlfriend (she was a flower monster, but a girlfriend is a girlfriend), and did in fact get married! (...to the flower monster, but hey, don't sweat the details) Maybe perhaps he even got to do the deed...? (she was a flower monster? doesn't matter, had sex) ...Nah, probably not...

No. No you're not. I was TOTALLY thinking of Takemoto's voyage of self-discovery right there, and you're right, that did make it funnier.

Must say Dayon haikus was good even that ending Dayooon and fappymatsu is back and started to cryed becuse of Totoko

Jyushimatsu had a genuine (if heartbreakingly concluded) love story though, where the girl probably actually liked him. And who knows how much Totty actually tells... he seemed pretty at ease around his colleagues at Sutabaa...

Episode 19:
Well, Shonosuke Hijirisawa was reduced to an extra on this episode. But hey, seeing Choromatsu and his self-awareness bubble rising up is so funny!

i could have sworn him being a murder victim was an inside joke that somebody or the F6 themselves murdered him so that they can reclaim their status as the main characters again.

[BloodyKitty]

Crunchyroll has become a Karamatsu girl!

The icon! The banner! So painful

Episode 20:

LOL, this episode was funny. Glad to see that Iyami is still relevant in this show.

The delinquent segment in the first half of the episode was also priceless. Comedy gold material.

[ChampDream]

so was Hatabou's meat his underlings that quit?

Iyami was awesome XD

[AntonKutovoi]

Hatabo segment was creepy enough to be funny, delinquent segment was funny, but Iyami part was pretty boring, IMO.

That's kind of the impression I got.
It never pays to consider what meat is in a kebab!

Still, we've not seen Hatabou for a while, so it's always great when they bring in the other cast members again.

Iyami is always awesome... SHEEH!

[kuromitsu]

1) Karamatsu... why... the pants are one thing (one horrible thing) but those shoes. Imagine the amount of money he spent on those.

2) I kind of expected the brothers to eventually shrug and start digging in, I mean it's a free meal! But I guess they're not that low yet...

3) Ichimatsu confirmed as... er... furry? Not quite...

3) Oh dear god, the yankee skit. Oh dear god.
-Irino Miyu needs to work on his delinquent voice. One hundred more "KORRRAAAA"s for you!
-the outfits. The outfits.
-Osomatsu's entrance. Just... that scene...

Sorry; dynamic content not loaded. Reload?

-Just when I was wondering what we'd have for "喧嘩上等" (basically "come at me, bro"/"bring it on, dude", the stereotypical yankee creed) XDDD I should've known.
-Also, this:

Sorry; dynamic content not loaded. Reload?

-the Karamatsu vs Osomatsu fight, that was pure genius.
-Ichimatsu taking the gag to its logical conclusion
-Ichimatsu confirmed as... catsexual? never mind
-My sides still hurt XDDDDD

4) And woooowww, the second half got pretty heavy meta right there. Also, poor Suzumura Kenichi, I wouldn't be surprised if he had to schedule like a week of treating his throat after recording Iyami.

5) And then the post-ED segment......
By the way... Tottie...?


And the ending.... the meat has spoken!

[Faux Mecha]

the delinquent segment gave me Crows ZERO flashbacks minus the the stereotype of an archetype,
Hatabou's meat supply? SOYLENT GREEN!!

[Stark700]

Episode 21:

This episode...awesome. Why? Because they made the game of mahjong thrilling with the timing, background atmosphere, and game play. The facial expression of the guys was also really funny.

Actually now that I think about it, this show can make any ordinary event, thing, etc into something more crazy than it should be LOL.

[AntonKutovoi]

Heh, just when I thought that cast could be even greater they added Nojima and Sugita.
Now, where's my Nobutoshi Canna, Ryoutarou Okiayu and Takeshi Kusao? I know, you can add more, Osomatsu-san!

[ChampDream]

Best Mahjong match I have saw so far.
