The Akari mech was hilarious. Good stuff there.
As for the episode, loved that it focused on Ayano. This is why I'm watching lol. Can totally relate with the allergy segment. I get pretty bad allergies every year and it definitely sucks. Lol, I love how creative they are when making fun of Akari. That whole rain splash thing was brilliant lol. Great episode.

Ok, I'm gonna say it. I'm finally gonna say it!
I absolutely love how Akari (well, Shiori Mikami really) does that cry of dismay with that slight waver every time something bad happens to her. That little touch always makes my heart all melty. I love it! Poor poor pitiful Akari. Endless "Melty heart" Soul

Yuru Yuri Quaver 05 - Feed the Birds (2円 a Bag)
This was a really great episode. The sketches were still fairly distinct, but they flowed naturally into one another, with the summer theme linking all of them (and some other themes). If there's any way to review them, best to do it in show order. Kyoko would put Yui up to doing the title call. Akari doesn't like it either way. Kyoko's AC adventure was hilarious. Even when given a very clear-cut goal, she still finds a way to slack off, and was barely aware of what kind of batteries she needed in the first place. And it set up the idea of creatures attacking Akari for reasons she can't comprehend. The presence of mosquitoes and Akari missing the train called up memories of Joshiraku, but with the difference of Tetora missing the train because of her good luck... and Akari missing it because of the opposite. The pool segment was inspired. They could've easily shown us the pool antics (and sort of did, second hand), but the focus was on Akari first and foremost. Little details like her pool ticket blowing past the window and her missing the train and not even noticing it made it the best segment of the episode. Poor Akari. Kyoko's second segment was alright (where she got the dog mask, I'm not certain), with the RPG segment standing out. Akari would never survive in SAO. Nor would Kyoko, for entirely different reasons. This kind of makes me want to see a full Yuru Yuri RPG episode. After all, Yui's games have been part of her character since the beginning. More SakuHima! And another appearance by the thoughtful Kaede. (Voiced by Aya Uchida, who I'm glad to see getting work. After the reception Ascoeur got, seeing her in another role is good. Same for her costar Aya Goda, but she's not in this show). The idea that she would "share" her breasts with Sakurako when she grows up was charming and yet, one wonders if Sakurako will go for the Furutani Sisters End. Then more Akari suffering. As I said before, all the segments in this episode worked really well together, with some well-timed running gags and more screentime for Akari, now in her element. Chitose and Ayano's eyecatches down, two more to go. Of course, next week is Comiket and Mirakurun. And I'm looking forward to that even more. Last edited by Midonin; 2012-07-30 at 14:42. |

Highlights of the episode for me :
- poor akari, even when she have a lot of screentime it's just a lot of bullying/talking alone moments. Did made me laught thought i never guessed i could see someone talking alone so much and still enjoying it. - Kyokorin~ made me pause the episode to catch my breath, this part was gold to me can i take her home ? oh and preview of last episode lied T.T

Episode 5:
Yaaaayyy! Akari had a lot of screen time this episode! Even if she did have a lot of bad luck screen time is screen time And she experianced one of the many things that always happens to me! I want to close my window to stop the insects from coming in, but at the same time, it's too hot the close it. I feel you Akari, I feel you *Gains more respect* Kaede sure is cute, but nothing beats Mari! Boy I sure do hope her adorable little face makes an appearance again

I never dreamed Akari would someday get so much screentime. Of course, that generous amount of screentime was accompanied by plenty of suffering for her. Such is the fate of Akarin. The prank Sakurako played on her was pretty cruel.

Himawari's little sister was beyond adorable. Her offering milk to Sakurako made me laugh pretty hard. She already knows a lot about boobs.
