But honestly, just chalk that up to suspension of disbelief, because there is no way someone can look at Rinnon and think, "Oh, that's just a rare type of cat/bunny/whatever. Nothing unusual about it." |

Seriously in almost every rom-com there is some alien creature and people are like "kawaiiiiiiiii" where I would be like "gun to the head, die you alien creature".

I mean, the way Kaitos sister readily agreed to her staying with her little brother after she saw Ichika giving him mouth to mouth first aid.... ehm, ok Then like you said nobody questions Rinon..... and also the fact Ichika comes from abroad and has european looks, but strangely she has a japanese name? Aha.... |

When I first saw Rinnon it reminded me of a matryoshka doll (with a leaf antenna) . Now add the origin of these dolls (Russia) and that Ichika said she comes from the north, Russia being just to the north of Japan, and BOOM you have the connection. I've got it all figured out !!

That's one heck of an episode. Some things to point out...
- Kaito reunites with his childhood friend who declared that she still has feelings for him. She's a little clingy but not as much as her other friend. - Remon's ninja sneaking skills is impressive as always. - Mio "saving" Tetsurou from "danger" and showing her butt in the process. How did she lost her underwear anyway? - Speaking of "danger," Chiharu is one heck of a selfish girl. I mean, she was stronger than Tetsurou and she almost "devoured" him. That's kinda scary. - Rinon's side appearances are funny as always

Regarding "Onegai Senpai", I almost always feel conflicted after seeing an episode. On one hand, I always find myself baffled as to the praise of it being the best or one of the best series of the summer. I also keep waiting for Kaito to "man up" but I suppose this turn of events will at least lead to Kanna not being strung along anymore. However, on the other hand, I love the supporting cast of this show and I do enjoy the ample fanservice that this show provides. Remon Yamano is simply one of my favorite characters of this season(Chiaki and Jenny from BSP, Ririchiyo from InuBoku and Mei from Another are my other favs), and I enjoy how she subtly influences the plot and how she is the one who is really getting the movie done(I hope Kaito comes to appreciate Remon for doing all the hard work for him). I also feel for Kanna, Tetsurou and Mio as they feel like real teenagers and I hope for the best for them. They are basically carrying the series for me, and why I haven't dropped the show like a stone.
As far as this episode goes, this is the best episode yet. Perhaps since it is a beach episode, I can dig the level of fanservice that we have. Kanna and Ichika in very nice swimsuits and Ichika certainly gave us some nice bounces and she certainly is quite easy on the eyes. Remon is of course a DFC and is wearing a school swimsuit. Then again, Remon trolling is fanservice that I cannot get enough of(and return of Dynamite Drink for episode 7. Winning!) I did feel like the two new girls that got introduced were basically there for cheap drama since nobody can apparently tell their real feelings and I didn't feel any sympathy for either of them. I liked seeing the little details of the episode though. Tetsurou likes model building and Kanna's house has a rotary phone(I saw it before, but I wasn't sure if that was Kanna's). Looks like Kanna is probably going to stumble on Ichika, Kaori and Kaito as it will probably get revealed that Kaito likes Ichika(Of course, Ichika already knows and Kaito doesn't know that she feels the same way). I just hope that Kanna doesn't compound the fallout by walking in on Mio and Tetsurou. I rate this episode as a 8/10. I like how the series is improving as it goes along, and I hope for a great second half and I hope that Kaito changes a lot before the end of episode 12. I just can't feel something for a guy who strings someone along when he knows that he likes someone else and he knows that another girl likes him. I also hope that he starts to show some self-motivation because right now, he's just floating through life and he can't keep on getting 67s on tests without some sort of plan to deal with life after high school. |

I sleep naked. I, on special days, dont like wearing underwear. I support Mio's nudity! But, 'sensitive' skin? I dont buy it- I honestly believe she is in the schemes of seducing Tetsurou. Or Mio is one goddamn tease.

^ I dunno. She could just wear napkin + patsu and the rest naked.
@Spy She said her skin's sensitive during the episode. That was why she was wearing a sweater(or is tit a jersey?).

But anyway.... Spoiler for Spoiler about Mio's relationship:
Worst picture ever but it's the concept you take from it! Kanna is totally going to be so heartbroken she has NO CHOICE but to go for Mio. Hahaha oh, JC staff, ALLOW IT!
