Yuruyuri 04 - Wishes Carried On the Waves and Winds ~Wings in Waiting~
The cameraman continues to find new and creative ways to screw with Akari. And it's not just the camera's eye, either. Mother nature is getting in on the act. Though I liked seeing Akari's tanabata wish continue to flutter by throughout the episode - in a roundabout way, Akari's wish wasn't unfulfilled. Her desire to stand out stood out, even if she herself didn't. Having Kyoko for a rival is an interesting experience. Kyoko's so happy-go-lucky she's barely aware of the rivalry, and Ayano's far too stubborn to admit it. Their interaction (and Chitose's intermittent fantasies) were fun to watch as always - it was only a matter of time before Ayano's lack of underwear came back to bite her in her clearly-exposed butt. Chinatsu's reaction to being kissed is apparently to spin around like a music box doll, and starfish have the same accuracy as shuriken. Next week looks to be Mirakurun heavy. I can't wait! |

That was a pretty low key episode that would be looked pretty damn bad had this been the typical shonen lead harem show. But it's yuri so it passes ._. Kind of wish it had more YuixKyoko though.
On another note, I was half expecting Akarinless opening |

Did anyone notice that long-haired character on this? Is she the student council prez and the one who handed out the tissues and held the firecrackers?

Poor Akarin. They really pushing her out that bad on being left out. Though if it's only being left out. I haven't seen the student council prez yet. Though she is around they don't show her up. I wonder if the manga is the same. In the op/ed the prez is also not been shown so I guess we will never get to see her.
I don't know which to root for between Yui or Kyoko -_- They are just both adorable. Chitose needs blood donation.

Also wow I can't believe I didn't notice the Pres in the episode. I was wondering who the extra person was.

This show is absolutely my guilty pleasure for the season. I just love the idea of a character with such weapons-grade natural yuri goggles that she has to wear corrective lenses to perceive the world accurately. Like Cyclops from X-Men, but a danger only to herself.
Also, the ED is infuriatingly catchy. |

I didn't even realize that Akari had missed the fireworks scene until the group shots of all seven characters started. But I wonder who the viewpoint character was who kept giving Chitose needed tissues and snatched the sparklers from Himawari and Sakurako when they were having their duel...fourth-wall breaker, maybe?
Chitose is rapidly becoming one of my favorite all-time characters! |

A pretty good episode though not as a good as last, needs more tsunxtsun though their attempt to battle with fireworks was amusing XD.
Root for what? ; the obivously solution is to cheer for KyoukoxYui to happen

Chitose's fantasies are, as always, a spot on. Chinatsu's wish was fulfilled, it was funny seeing her rolling around acting all happy-like in the background. Although she corrected the new wish which stands mouth to mouth now.
Ayano is a gorgeous tsundere, hope she becomes even better friends with Kyoko in the future. Yui is becoming one of my favorites as well simply because she is smart and have that big sister vibe.

There is a question in my mind that won't go away.
Chitose keeps fantasizing about Ayano and Kyoko and imagines her friend in compromising situations. She has yuri goggles so strong that she has to take off her glasses. But why do those goggles ONLY work for one specific pairing? Shouldn't she fantasize about everyone, especially Himawari/Sakurako since they're with them in the student council all the time and it's easy to interpret their rivalry as something yuri-rific? They're not that different from Ayano in that aspect.
