Momiji sure fell low...
Ranmaru sure became nice friends with Sakura.
Even though her way of life is antiquated most of the time.
Sakura just can't get away from her supernatural "friends".
Momo vs Kitty... things just can't be normal around Sakura.
Ranmaru sure has it bad for Keita ^^
The whole bath thing was just LOL, especially Momiji's forced wash ^^
OMG, that Sakura - Keita awkward situation may have opened a chance for those two..

Which proves Bobby was wrong about her being all muscles. I expected better out of a breast expert like him. It should have been clear as day that she has a rocking body too!

That was definitely a tremendously fun episode. Great humor and service, as usual in this show. I can't to see how different from the usual Momiji this clean Momiji is. She still seems quite devious based on her scene with Kumagai (who has also changed quite a bit). It might be a new ploy to get Ichiko's fortune.

likewise. The range of her voice is astonishing and amusing. haha.

As for the episode itself, I thoroughly enjoyed it. The interaction with Keita throughout the episode was entertaining to watch. It was also neat to see another side of him. For instance, his tendency of being unforgiving when his sisters' safety and purity are at stake. Last but not least, the paper bag at the end had me laughing for a good while. lol

This has to be the first time I've seen a public bath episode as hilarious as this, that took up a large chuck of the episode runtime, no blinding lights, everything cleverly censored, it was thoroughly enjoyable :D
Which proves Bobby was wrong about her being all muscles. I expected better out of a breast expert like him. It should have been clear as day that she has a rocking body too!

Bobby's plan aside, what he said did make sense, as it was mainly about Ranmaru's outer appearance that conceals her body, one of the many reason's why I'm on the warpath against sahashi, they inhibit the bounce and lower breast size by as much as 2 sizes! :heh:
Holy cow.....I laughed HARD at the fanservice song.....
The song was hilarious, though it's really out of tune in another language :heh:

its great to see "clean" momiji animated, she is such the perfect wife, and thus we find another facet, and the reason of her pragmatic approach to ichiko, also the DN parody its awesome in how fitting and well done it is, funny since the parody here follows closer the depiction in DN manga(not necessarily better) than the DN anime.

the watari/sukeno and tsuwabuki/rem was a good touch thrown by the anime staff.

Clean Momiji is so pure, even Bobby can't bring himself to soil her. I can't blame Ichiko for suspecting her after everything she's been through (that Death Note parody :heh:), but thankfully, she seems to have eventually realized that Momiji was sincere. Too bad for her these peaceful days are already coming to a close. As nice as clean Momiji is, I still like the dirty one better (she's a lot more fun) so I'll welcome her return with open arms.

What truly sucks is that the series will end. I really hope we'll have a second season soon.

Even Momou missed the real Momiji.

The new, nice Momiji was really amazing.

episode 12 was really good. Clean Momiji is a really good character.

Ichiko is pretty much the worst character in her own series. Every other characters with decent screentime and episode focus is better.

Wonder how the final episode will be. Imo, episode 12 would have worked good as the last episode. Since it gave kind of conclusive info on intent. and it ended on a good and optimistic tone.

Yes probably, but it's true that I admit I zapped it had said to her "new plan" and probably his plan was so always take the positive energy ration Ichiko but being his "friend" ? Thus although smaller in hard?

Actually, there was a scene in the episode where Keita takes notice of Ichiko. He wakes up for a few seconds just to look at Ichiko as she walks out of the classroom with Momiji and Ranmaru. The biggest significance was that he did not notice the other 2 girls, only Ichiko. It was short, but it definitely threw a flag in there.

Well I have always said I've felt like Sakura Ichiko is a better written Medaka Kurokami who's obvious personality flaws are actually acknowledged by the rest of the cast and who actually appears to grow as a character rather than forces others around her to grow in her stead through BS logic (if people can't tell I really don't care for Ms. Medaka's "character development"). Guess I'm not the only one that noticed the similarity of concept there.

They're completely different characters. All Ichiko had was luck and her flaws are apparent from the beginning. Medaka is designed to be a Mary Sue.

Ichiko was never designed to be perfect in the first place.

Right, Ichiko was only made to "appear" perfect but she had her share of problems.
Medaka's character is supposed to be absurd as it fits in the ludicrous world that they inhabit.

for all those like me who have already seen the chapters of the volumes and expected volumes 14 its nice to see things going the chapters already been adapted into anime and I do hope that in this season 2 will then focus on things that girls black hair (I do not know his name snif) so season 1 = Momiji and season 2 = this girl long hair black :p

good action this episode, i quite enjoyed ranmaru and momo's fight, but the great news its the announcement of a second season with the tentative name binbougami darkness(Q) oppai, wich will likely be 2cour, since this season covered 4 volumes, and in the preview there was footage up to volume 12, great news indeed.
AWESOME! Hope they make a new radio series for that! :heh:
I just remembered there are 2 volumes of side stories; wonder whether they are going to include that. And since the manga may be ending soon, I wonder how they are going to fit remaining volumes. One more cour after that perhaps?

yes have this season 2 can be expected to adapt a few chapters previous volumes on 10, then volumes 10, 11 and (possibly some beings chapter of Volume 12)

for all those like me who have already seen the chapters of the volumes and expected volumes 14 its nice to see things going the chapters already been adapted into anime and I do hope that in this season 2 will then focus on things that girls black hair (I do not know his name snif) so season 1 = Momiji and season 2 = this girl long hair black :p
You seem to be bordering on talking about spoilers from future volumes not yet covered in the anime.

Best anime from this season so far... Ofc there is still SAO, enjoyable on same level for me, but SAO have adventage being about MMO game... Everyone would enjoy it, even if plot would be few times worser...

But Binbō-gami ga! started from dangerous position, because Ichiko is character who could be easly hated. Without fully understand her its not easy to like her.

I just watched the episode. Sorry to dash your hopes. No season 2 was confirmed, the only thing that really hinted of a possibility was the end card with "see you again", which really doesn't mean anything (though there could be an OVA I guess). The rest was just trolling (which was blatantly labeled) by the usual Gintama staff. It actually said "Is it true that a series with a fake preview is jinxed not to have a continuation?" Also note that Nadeshiko said 'someday' and gave a troll title lol. :heh:

No wonder I thought it odd...... I really don't know whether to laugh or cry now lol.

that is exactly how school rumble first season ended, they showed the preview for the next episode, just to karasuma remind tenma that it was the end of the series, with it just leaving with a "hoefullysee you again" message, so i still believe it.

I believe there's hope for a second season too, just that nothing in the last episode really indicated that one would be set in stone in the near future. The scenes were just troll, or rather, tease from the staff (like how they always troll about Gintama movie :heh:). I will be getting the web radio DJ CD series since they contain stuff snipped off due to time constraints.

Sad that the series is already coming to an end. One of the more enjoyable series out this season compared to the rest of the more hyped up shows. Only thing that was missing was the photo for Suwana after Ranmaru's intro. I guess they could still put it in after they introduce Nadeshiko though if they ever decided to make a second season. Although it doesn't look like there are any announcements in the near future for a second cour.

To top it off, the troll title was pretty hilarious. 'Darkness' lol, reminds me of a certain 'To-Ra-Bu-Ru (Trouble)'.

Well at least, it did say that it was a fake preview. One of the last few Gintama episodes showed a troll preview and kept us trolled for an entire week. Can you imagine getting trolled for more than a week without knowing? :heh:

But still, I can't really call it a troll but rather a teaser for what might come if second season is confirmed. However, given that it's those 'Gintama staff' we are talking about, it might be a reverse troll with that explicit statement saying that it's a fake preview and that actually a second season is being planned (crossing my fingers :heh:).

This made for a nice finale. Although she didn't admit outright, Ichiko realized she likes Momiji and that her life wouldn't be the same without her. It was sad that clean Momiji had to disappear so that the original would come back. Wish there had been a way for the two to coexist.

Troll preview was fun. I should have figured the Gintama staff would do something like that. Hopefully the troll will turn into reality like with the Gintama movie.

Medaka Box was a split cour series from the start, I would say the highest chance of this having a second season would it also being a split cour series.... if you don't hear anything by mid November...

@Westlo
Do you follow the manga figures? Did it get a boost? If it does, it might make sense to make a new cour. Since things do escalate, it might make those who can't wait buy the manga and boost its sales again. A pity that Danshi Koukou is not getting a 2nd season with all its legendary seiyuus. *cough*, I can't help but digress...

Nah I don't follow the manga sales, but I quickly looked it up for you.. this was the last volume that went on sale.

I guess you would have to wait until Volume 14 goes on sale to see any effect the anime may have had, if any. Doubt the manga would've been boosted much... if not split cour best case scenario is probably an OVA bundled with Vol 14 or whatever.

What a joyride this anime was. Pleasantly surprised at Kana's performance, stepping outside her usual soft spoken roles to someone with a fast changing personality such as Ichiko.

That was another great episode to end the season. Like so many other shows this season, I do hope to see a second season.

Clean Momiji can always return again. All Ichiko has to do is clean her up nicely again. It's like a vacation. She takes 7 days out of the year for a break. :heh:

I'm very pleasantly surprised at how well this show has been made, and I hope the story continues to be this strong. It is also very unfortunate how many good shows this season are not performing well on sales. I guess the anime industry has to pander to its core audience in order for sales to be boosted, and that, unfortunately, leads many good series to lower sales figures.

These characters are all very endearing, so I do hope to see them again.

brocko

2012-09-30, 02:26

I havn't seen Haiyore!, but a quick skim in google images and watching the OP (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tYlAq-NhR1w) seems to suggest to me that there are more objects of affection and the show plays that card a lot heavier than Binbogami. Not to mention there were some elements of saucy battle costumes and other-worldly combat as well (I'm inclined to think this assumption is valid since it's prevalent towards the end of OP). However like I said, havn't seen the show, so all heavy speculation on my part but the things I mentioned all tickle the fancies of the otaku market.

Haven't seen it, but I'm guessing because of the protagonist being a male and most of the girls don't have sad pasts like the heroine of Binbo-gami ga!

OR

Maybe the harem played a strong factor in Jap nerds. :(

brocko

2012-09-30, 02:34

Yup, if the main character fell into the typical spineless archetype, then you know how powerful the effects of such a device is. Viewers are able to insert themselves into show as wish fulfillment where they are surrounded by all these objects of affection. There is less room to do that with Ichiko in Binbogami, since she's a strong independent women and stuck-up snob (two things Japan doesn't seem too fond of imo. I.E popularity of Rei vs Asuka in Japan), which again falls back to playing the bishoujou and harem card a lot heavily than Binbogami, if there are even elements of harem in Binbogami in the first place.

Overall, different shows with different focuses imo, despite the somewhat similar premise (random ass deity-like being freeloading in your house and causing all sorts of havoc).

Westlo

2012-09-30, 03:11

Even though it wore off on me after a few episodes I thought Kana Asumi's "Nyaruko" was a tour de force performance initially, I guess the series picked up momentum from that. Ichiko also wasn't exactly the most likeable character at first, I think "right place at the right time" plays a big part in things and it's hard to gain momentum if you start slow. Also it seems more "otaku" than this show and of course the wish fulfillment plays a big part. Also to compare this and High School Boys to Gintama (same director), well for one they aren't as good and secondly they lack the fujoshi factor. (Jump's latest figures revealed that 60% of Gintama manga buyers are females)

brocko

2012-09-30, 03:21

The spineless male thing is just one slice of the bigger wish fulfillment pie. Like I've mentioned, I don't know how heavily Haiyore! plays that wish fulfillment card since I havn't seen it yet but I'd be inclined to believe there's a lot less focus on that front [wish fulfillment in general, not spineless male] when it comes to Binbogami, even if it's no stranger to having skimpy fan-service itself.

Nichibro's also suffered the same dismal sales that Binbogami is experiencing. Both shows had much online acclaim for their comedy and were handled by the Gintama team as well, which sold like hotcakes (but apparently there's a large fujoshi following with Gintama) so I assume having relatable and/or attractive objects of affection plays a large part in sales.

Japan just doesn't like buying straight-up comedies it seems... =/ Hopefully the producers understood this and evaluated their expected performance targets accordingly. After all, if results on all the other front (manga sales and what not) still deliver, that may be enough to warrant a 2nd season as well.

zeniselv

2012-09-30, 03:24

o spmewhat can agree with you, in the comedic factor nyaruko was way better at the first episodes and didn't picked back up untill the last ones, but i did enjoy her and the series, but it hardly kept the tampo it had at the start(or like binbougami kept the whole series), also the visuals are more attractive in nyaruko, you can even see how sukeno kept adapting to a more moe-fied style as the manga advanced, and the anime took a "midpoint" character designs, wich nowadays can influence a lot in a anime popularity.

Well, two thoughts on this. First, Danshi Koukousei did do about 2X the sales that V1 of Binbougami seems to have done. And I never thought that show would do much in sales at all, since all the females are clearly supporting players. Second, I would certainly call Haiyore! a straight-up comedy - more so than Binbougami, in fact.

2012-09-30, 11:33

Although I love them, I imagine Ichiko and Momiji's characters can be quite a turn-off for some people. They're not exactly your average anime female characters, after all. Perhaps this is why otaku weren't too fond of this show.

2012-09-30, 14:03

You know it never occurred to me that despite basically being the kind of character otaku like (hawt, sassy, HanaKana voiced) that actually being the main character instead of the object of the harem chase would negate all of Sakura's potential pull on the otaku crowd. That theory makes sense to me actually.

Also I'd say otaku like strong independent female character plenty well. Just look at all of them in like the last couple seasons even. Just not as the main character as I said. For all your Kuroyukihimes, Asuna Yuukis, Yui Takemura's, Yuna The Aquila's and Layla Malkals, they're always relegated to second duty behind a male lead who they are extremely devoted too and who looks out for them in some fashion whenever they conveniently can't continue to be awesome on their own. It's this dynamic that I think is missing from Binbogami-ga that probably cost it. Like switch around the character roles so that Keita is the main character and it's Sakura that comes brazenly dashing into his life and brings Momiji down on the both of them and the focus is on a romance from Keita's perspective instead and I bet the series is at the very least a modest hit.

zeniselv

2012-09-30, 15:20

i do agree with you, but if this series had followed the usual dynamic i dont think it would stand out of the rest of generic love comedies, specially when almost every anime/manga/light novel has to the very least have a prominent love triangle, i also think the designs are a little too stylized to catch male attention, even the manga has been adapting to a more moe style, specially ichiko in the latest chapters, something not that rare when even mangas like berserk have done, to the point of including the chipmunk theet in little girls.

creb

2012-09-30, 15:29

Those are valid theories, though in a perfect world I'd hope oversimplistic. Of course we don't live in a perfect world, but I'd hate to think that the presence of an ineffectual male lead could make much difference in its own right. We've seen plenty of all-girl shows do very well on BD/DVD indeed (the industry wouldn't be producing them in numbers if we hadn't) but perhaps it's Ichiko's unlike-ability that has as much to do with it.

Your neverending idealism, despite being an up to your armpits anime fan never fails to surprise me. :heh:

As for Kaioshin Sama's assertion that otaku like strong, independent, females...I have to vehemenently disagree. What makes it infuriating is he obviously gets it, based on his talk about being relegated to a male lead they are "extreamely" devoted to, and this strange dichotomy among many anime fans continues to leave me gaping. How, exactly, is a female character strong and independent if they are clinging to some male lead's legs? :heh:

I think a far more accurate statement would be that otaku love seemingly strong females who are subservient to a man. It's a fetish that extends way outside of anime, by the way, so I'm not trying to paint otaku alone with this brush. We could get into the whole power dynamic that underlies many human relationships, and the allure of domination, with all its overt or subtle sexual tones, or how it's baked into men from the hunter gatherer days, or lol at how Charlie Sheen's Anger Management approached this issue in regard to women's smut while taking a step back to think about it all seriously, but that's probably something worthy of its own thread. :p

Getting back on topic, I enjoyed Binbo-gami ga! a lot. It's filled with things, that taken seperately, I really dislike, but combined in the way it was, it was great comedy. I would definitely approve of a second season if I was the man in charge. :heh: Also, I'm betting the subs helped in my enjoyment, as I seem to recall a blog where the translator essentially said they took great liberties. I'm not sure if I'd have enjoyed it as much if they had done strictly litteral translations.

Your neverending idealism, despite being an up to your armpits anime fan never fails to surprise me. :heh:

As for Kaioshin Sama's assertion that otaku like strong, independent, females...I have to vehemenently disagree. What makes it infuriating is he obviously gets it, based on his talk about being relegated to a male lead they are "extreamely" devoted to, and this strange dichotomy among many anime fans continues to leave me gaping. How, exactly, is a female character strong and independent if they are clinging to some male lead's legs? :heh:

It's not that I think it's a good thing, it's that at this point I'll kind of take what I can get moving forward. Though that's why out of all of those recent female characters I keep mentioning that Kuroyukihime is the one that most stands out to me as a female lead of late. Of all of those I mentioned she's really the only one that doesn't cling to the male lead at all so much as he clings to her and sees her as the source of leadership and strength in their little group, because well...frankly she is. Though that also presents the other problem of the weak-willed male lead that struggles to stand up for himself without his warrior princess of a girlfriend. Not exactly a complete balance there.

The way I see it modern anime is taking baby steps into a better direction though when it comes to portrayal of it's main characters and what they do. When I look at the type of characters otaku seem to like most they appear to be weak-willed in general. Meaning both male and female characters are portrayed in vaguely insulting and demeaning fashion. What I see now though is at least an attempt to change the dynamic somewhat and make both sexes come off as at least a little stronger, independent and more competent even if one usually ends up being more so than the other and even if it's a VERY slow looking process. I don't expect these changes to happen or even be accepted overnight let alone over the course of a year though, especially in a society as resistant to social change of any kind.

Oh, I don't especially think otaku like strong independent females - they like their girls objectified and/or idealized, generally. I don't think it's especially idealistic to suggest there's more to commercial success than just a weak male lead. As I said, there are plenty of of commercially successful anime with no males in the main cast at all.

No male casts at all is even better for them and would be absolute gravy. No pesky competition to get in the way, meaning they can oggle and idealise all they want without any distractions lol :heh: The main thing I think is just hitting that wish-fulfillment sweet spot, the dull-characterless male lead is just one of the building blocks among many that are available of use in order to do so.

....I think a far more accurate statement would be that otaku love seemingly strong females who are subservient to a man.....

You know, this actually sounds a lot like Tsundere :heh:
While I think there is some adoration for strong independent women, it's nowhere the level that they have when compared to the more subservient types though. I.E Rei vs Asuka (Misato apparently wasn't even as highly regarded in Japan as she was in the West), Yuki vs Haruhi (I'm interested in how well Mikuru stacks up here too actually).

Well, two thoughts on this. First, Danshi Koukousei did do about 2X the sales that V1 of Binbougami seems to have done. And I never thought that show would do much in sales at all, since all the females are clearly supporting players. Second, I would certainly call Haiyore! a straight-up comedy - more so than Binbougami, in fact.
Well the thing about Haiyore is that the harem aspects gives it an edge over Binbo alone. When I mentioned straight up comedies, I wanted to refer to shows where the only thing it has going for it was the comedy by itself.

But it's nice to know that Nichibro's sold a bit better than Binbo though. I didn't know the exact sales figures only that it wasn't exactly the best around so thanks for sharing that. Perhaps the comedy with Nichibro's just struck a better cord with the market, being all skit-based and less reliant on an over-arching narrative. Maybe a little Fujoshi boost might've help carried it a little as well, who knows I guess. Either way, it'd be great if both shows could get more animated material :)

I just noticed this series got a spot in the banner for the next big Jump Festa event, to take place in December, which is rather surprising. Could it be a good sign for a 2nd season?

Probably an OVA, Mago got a Jump Fiesta OVA after the first season and before the second season was announced. But that sold like 5k and actually spiked manga sales.....

Like I said before Shueisha tend to support their properties fairly well, which is why even though this sold half of High School Boys it has a higher chance of getting more animated matieral. (Not to mention that the High School Boys manga is now over as well)

I would be fairly confident in OVAs bundled with manga tanks....

And almost all of the fighting was done and between girls.

And even if it were true why would they announce it at Jump Festa?

That the manga might be ending is something manga readers think given the events, and jump festa migth be as good as any place/moment to announce it.

Yeah, i guess the anime went for a more generic art style, while the manga art has an original weirdness to it...also the girls look older.

IMO the poor disc sales of this shows are due to the fact that at the start of the show Ichiko is a bitch, she is just a step away from being villian material. Thanks to momiji she becomes a likable person, but by then all the female audience had droipped this show and many of the male audience that hava had dealt with self-centered bitches in real life had also left.

The good new is that (again IMO) shueisha will propel this manga as the new bleach (that is my opinion after looking at the pretty pictures in the rest of the manga) and therefore there will be a second (longer) season that is more action centered, much like what happened back in the day with Ranma 1/2.

Uh, no, just no, noone in Shueisha will think this is the next Bleach or try and turn it into that. Besides it's clear that Shueisha have been pushing Toriko to replace Bleach as a member of the "Big 3". Even though firstly Ao no Exorcist (from Jump Square like Binbo-gama ga) and Kuroko's Basket now both outsell it (especially AnE, like 750k vs 400k...).

Shueishas recent anime ventures....

Ao no Exorcist - Massive win, turned a 70k a volume manga into a 700k+ seller as well as doing over 10k in anime sales with a Movie on the way
Kuroko's Basket - Big, big win, turned a 200k seller into over 500k, anime is a big hit too doing over 20k in sales
Medaka Box - Failure, no increase in manga sales (170kish), anime sales sucked, only has a second season because that was the original plan
Binbo-gama - Failure in regards to the anime, manga might get a small boost, last volume opened @ 35k.

Interesting that both Medaka and Binbo-gami have heroines that are far too perfect.

I think one of the reasons for poor sales of Binbo-gami is that it tries to teach the readers/viewers a moral lesson - and nobody likes preaching.
Once Ichiko agreed to wear suppressing stone to no longer drain luck of others - the story should have ended right there, everything else is just beating the same horse all over again and engaging Deus Ex machina to prolongate it as long as possible. It should be her own privilege to decide how much luck she needs for herself and how much luck she should share with others...

Another big problem is that it only has ONE main character that has any motivation at all (and even that one is pretty unenthusiastic at it). Everyone else does nothing to fulfill their goals (in the rare instances there one actually has a goal and not just a desire).

GDiddy

2012-10-06, 19:38

BOOOOO.......I can't believe this series bombed in Japan! :(

You'd think with the fact that it's MC has big tits would make it something of a hit. Or is this a case of, 'BOYS SHOULD FIGHT ONLY GIRLS SHOULD BE FANSERVICE'?

Anyway, love the manga.

However, honestly, other than Momiji, my favourite character is still Yamabuki-neesan anyway. And she has a huge group of fangirls around her, so as long as she has more screen time, i'm happy

PS: and for those in Keita x Ichiko ship, just want to say that Keita is a good brother....., but Ranmaru is twice a man he is... *run away*

Maybe it's just me, but i think the anime failed to deliver one of Momiji's key character... I means when i watched the anime, i thought Momiji is an impulsive Goddess, who just have a golden heart (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/JerkWithAHeartOfGold)from time to time, and just conveniently there when the plot needed . But the manga clearly showed her to very manipulative on Ichiko, as she continuously set up the stage for Ichiko's character development. She's like the mastermind of the series

Maybe that's how she gained Yamabuki-neesan trust in the first place, considering how well she did her job

Anyone think Ichiko will turn into a Fortune Goddess by the end of this series?

I means her familiar, the cat was in similar stage where it was blown with more luck energy than its body can content, hence turned into a God. That means if Ichiko can gain more luck/positive energy on top of what she had, she may becomes a God of Fortune as well.

i think she can gain an infinite amount of good luck and still not be a god, becuz she isnt willing to share it so easily (atleast ATM), but yea i think i can agree with this theory. but she'll probably just keep the fortune under the "god" level and throw away the rest becuz i'll be a pain to be a god for her. too much work:heh:

@Westlo
Do you follow the manga figures? Did it get a boost? If it does, it might make sense to make a new cour. Since things do escalate, it might make those who can't wait buy the manga and boost its sales again. A pity that Danshi Koukou is not getting a 2nd season with all its legendary seiyuus. *cough*, I can't help but digress......

Bumping this for Vol 14s figures, noticed it in the chart while looking @ Magis.

Vol 13 opening week was

20. Binbougami ga! #13 (34,406)

Vol 14 after two weeks is...

29. Binbougami ga! #14 (25,623 / 58,333)

So yeah like Medaka Box the anime had no effect on manga sales.

I'm still fairly amused by Ranmaru's intro episode, Fist of the North Star disguise -> "spreading" damn that got me good, I spat my drink everywhere when I saw that. :heh:
Bath house episode was probably the funniest one for me. Why can't more bath house episodes of shows be that good? :D:p

This show was a fun ride all the way. I'm really missing the cast now, they were all great. Even the toilet god!:heh:
