Though I must say that her sister is rather cute....
That's a direct reference to Sexy Commando Gaiden: Sugoiyo! Masaru-san
You see Broccoli is <I'm assuming> friendly with the TBS broadcasting company.

The "Hige-bu" or facial hair club is a reference to Sexy commando and the club all the main characters are in during the duration of the show.

Now Digi charat(TV) the first series was a short five minute show or so, just as Sexy Commando was(Technically it ran nine minutes but don't crucify me over details). To fill a time slot TBS lumped them together in a anime shorts block called [Wonderful] http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/ency...me.php?id=4293

Even though J.C. Staff is doing the animation, broccoli is of course working in the background and having some fun.

So this is just a playful jab at some anime time slot buddies.

...Or I could just be full of it.
But it'd be nice to hear that my assumptions and logic aren't that flawed everyday.

Hahah, as a side note. When she's going to her club, the drawings on the door look a lot like the short and random "Ukelele Lessons" on sexy commando.

So...wait, if the Hige-bu is there...that would mean she goes to Wakame Highschool...
