I think there was way too much moving around in the first part. |

Once again, you continue to surprise (this is a compliment). I was surprised you liked LS at all, then I was surprised you didn't like ep5, which I thought was at least as good as any other episode, even if a bit different. That long silence waiting for Konata to speak was, in my opinion, excruciatingly good comedy.

I'm finding that my favorite parts of the show are when Kagamiya does the "iyaiyaiya" and her hand rapidly moves back and forth... |

(I think that's the test... been a while.) I'm a righty for pretty much everything. But I've accustomed myself to use my left hand for some tasks. Switching the mouse every few weeks reduces wrist fatigue. Curious thing about that, a while back my index finger was getting tired, so I swapped the mouse buttons and have found it much easier to use the right button for primary clicks. Using other people's computers feels wierd to me now. Quote:

It is kind of funny how Konata talked a lot about romance. While her idea of flirting is to frag the guy. |

Being a mmorpg player myself, obviously i enjoyed mmo chat xD the best moment of the whole show. Tank and Mage... I really want to see them in virtual world, just like some part of NHK, and .hack series.
But I can't imagine myself playing with my seniors |

Indeed, two things show that the director is changed lol and that is the only two things...
One is the scene of Tsukata gets increasing obviously, I guess the new director like Tsukasa lol Another one is that Akira is not out of her mind finally in the Lucky Channal... |

I was pretty interested while watching the a.f.k. subs, seeing them subbing lol from the japanese words. Noticed that the japanese "lol" had a w in it... and based on my basic knowledge of japanese, something like "oohawwww". So out of curiosity, does it have any special meaning or anything?

I give everything a chance though, even stuff I don't think I would normally like. The only way to learn new things (my goal in life) is to take chances by examining new ideas and stepping outside the realm of your usual tastes every now and then. If you don't like it, at least you've learned you don't. Only when I'm absolutely certain on something will I prejudge, but I'll always leave room open for me to change my mind and squeeze back into something (Like I've done with sola). There's also good comedic timing (Bush has said something stupid and Jon Stewart stares dumbfounded and waits for the audience to finish laughing and applauding and then adds his comment) and then there's Kagami's (Also fairly good with the sweatdrop and confusion regarding the chibi Konata's bizarre behaviour), and then there were Konata's moments that seemed mistimed and I wasn't even sure why she was pausing. The absolute biggest strike against the episode for me was the amount of potential (There are thousands of things you could do with the summer break theme) that were squandered and wasted elsewhere (The Yuri Jokes could have easily been done later on, and the gaming segments were far to short and lacked detail and humour. Barely any snarky comments from Konata either). The series managed to get more out of a ride on the train segment in an early episode, then it did during the entire summer break segment that was episode 5. It barely felt like anything special in the characters day to day lives was occuring and like I said, just wasted potential. |

Gave up and watched the a.f.k. sub .... comments:
1) the pacing was a bit slower, even more Peanuts-like. Also each individual sketch was longer (taking into account the more frequent multi-strip arcs in the comic). 2) The summer break isn't over ... in fact, I think I enjoyed the preview as much as the rest of the show because everyone is dressed fashionably (when did I become interested in fashion... aieee, sheesh!) 3) The Kagami segments did have the best comic pacing (e.g. fan sequence and festival sequences) 4) Tsukasa is becoming her own humor channel all by herself, submarining under all the louder humor 5) I enjoyed the festival sequence more for the visual appeal of the colors (the girls were all dressed to the hilt --- there I go again, drooling at fashion). 6) Yui was a bit awkward..... but then she's pretty awkward (someone above said a Tsukasa/Kona merge.... worst attributes of each ) Her high point was meeting Nanako (I figured Nanoko would be more flattered she was mistaken for a highschooler ). Kagami was still the prize of the Yui-festival sequence though with her aggravated asides. 7) This episode came closer to "slice of life" rather than "comedy" than any other so far... I'm reminded of the recent I.M. OVA 2 sequence which spent a couple of minutes showing Nobue washing her motorbike. Kona's MMO submersion was okay.... necessary but not ultra-funny. Actually at the end it was more poignant with the unfinished homework withering on the floor. Enjoyed the style difference of the character chat. I tagged it as a bit of a reminder that the series is NOT "all about the funny" ... there are a number of poignant "I've been there" pieces in the comic. The next episode will be more summer break focused it appears and may even include the brief beach sequence from the comic (mostly Nanako and Yui chatting with runthroughs from the other girls). Lucky*Channel is really finished though for me... really really finished. I guess I'm getting aggravated because I'm plotting the remaining episodes and the amount of comic material they could be using from the 4-koma versus the residual humor in the L*C gag. On the other hand, Minoru is just a naturally very funny guy --- they should give him more one-liners in the main content. For that reason, I'm firing my first "8" at the series. I would have given a "9" for the festival sequence just for the colors and animation richness even if the main content was a slower pace. Heck, I loved the "cloppity" sounds of all of them walking (having walked along with a bunch of happy chattering cloppitying japanese girls in yukata-garb at various festivals). However, for the other reasons, I might have even gone down to a "7" but the saving moments of the episode allowed me to be more gracious.
