I do think SP intentionally has fun with just about every meme from Marimite, Oniisama and other girls'-school yuri shows, but it does it in a fairly enjoyable way and has gradually created an atmosphere of its own. It's nowhere near the level of those two shows, though.

I really enjoyed ep19. The Etoile ceremony was wonderfully over the top, as was the scene under the tree. And I loved Nakahara Mai's wail near the end of the episode. I personally would be delighted with whichever relationship Nagisa settles on. I continue to admire Nabatame Hitomi's work as Shizuma. And I thought that the newcomer Iwamura Kotomi did a nice job as Kaori.
I don't like Oniisama-e. It is bad for my heart! XD
