On a mission

Rofl, this can be renamed to Cool Story Bro: The Anime.
Just bros sharing their daily occurrences. Somehow it feels different even though there are many like it, just because there are guys. All hail Sugita for making another funny monologue guy. Anyhow, the best part was obviously the beach part for all the wrong reasons. And the last part; I was totally expected him to get slapped... but.

Nice episode. It is also interesting to see another returning gag ---> trying on the school uniform of the opposite sex.
Oh.... and as much as I love Gintokis sexy voice, I think his VA is too old for a high schooler.... it doesnt fit the character at all! |

I do have a feeling though that as the western audience we are missing some of the cultural references here. For example I feel like I should know about how the Japanese radio works to appreciate how fail those boys are in that skit.

Actually, out of the main trio Kenichi Suzumura (who plays Yoshitake, the blonde dude) is the eldest VA, and ironically enough he sounds the most convincing as a teenage boy. Therefore their age has nothing to do with it :P Personally I love Tomokazu Sugita best when he plays these Kyon-like characters.

Hmm maybe I am biased too although in actuality Sugita is my favourite VA of the three.

I do hope that the Bungaku Shoujo can get an entire song out of all the loldeep words said by the boys about the wind, including Tadakuni's mood breaker. The beach part of the third episode felt like a subversion of what we do expect from a beach episode.

Hmmmm... Episode 3 wasn't as good as the previous episodes. It was still fun to watch despite of its shortcomings. The table tennis scene definitely made me chuckle. I've always thought Tadakuni is the smartest among the three, I guess I was wrong. lol. The train scene was probably my favorite. It was refreshing to see a girl showing gratitude to the guy that mentioned something that she'll embarrassed about. I was expecting a punch in that scene, perhaps I've been watching too much anime that has tsundere in them.
The ending never cease to make me laugh. That song is starting to grow on me too. lmao. The last segment was just glorious. For some reason, I just couldn't help but laugh hysterically after seeing this: Spoiler:

It certainly does. The anime made me realize how stupid and ridiculous my group was in high school, and I wasn't wrong. After being introduced to this show, all of us having a blast laughing about how similar those guys are to us.

I was hoping for something a little edgier, something a little more warts-and-all. Like a male equivalent of High School Girls (the manga, not the sanitized anime version). So far it's like they substituted slightly older boys for the cast of Today in Class 5-2. Not bad by any means, but not very interesting either.
