Kissui inn – now with personal “health care” services

Tohru: “Oh god look at that! Nako and Ohana in dr…HNNNNNNNNNNG!”

Tohru’s perverted smirk: So shocking and creepy it makes even the senior chef drop his food

So some shady management consultant women who speaks a lot of engrish tries to bring change to the inn to get it running better again. She fails in epic proportions and is quite annoying, too.

Trying to help the inn, Ohana thinks hard about what could be done, but she gets rejected by her grandma. Beanman, however, sees Ohana and leads her to a storeroom with a lot of kimono apparently made by Ohana’s grandma. Nako and Ohana try them on and serve the customers wearing them for the day, much to the shock of the remaining staff. But it has a positive effect, so I guess it’s a success.

The best part about this episode is certainly when Tohru and the chef are eating breakfast and Tohru suddenly smirks in a really creepy way. The chef is so disturbed by this that he drops his food in shock.

Minko: “Next time, you’ll bang me! Not that bitch from Fukuya, are we clear?!”

So there is no love triangle. Instead, that girl just wanted to ride that motorbike once. Lots of drama for nothing. This episode consisted basically of Minko fussing over Tohru, who just helped out at Fukuya for a day, instead of leaving entirely.

Ohana went there to drag him back, but Tohru was already on his way back. She made a fuss for nothing.

Finally! A bathing service scene! I’ve been wondering when it’d actually happen

So Okarin eats Kurisu’s pudding. A major offence! Apart from the usual teasing, it gets even more interesting this episode. SERN has already become aware of Okarin’s experiments and someone has been sending him another message, this time with more extreme content: “You know too much” followed by a picture of a decapitated person.

Okarin gets really disturbed by this message while he was shopping and fears for Mayuri (but not Kurisu?!) and runs back to the lab as fast as he can, only to walk in on them while they are in the bath stark naked. Apparently fear weighs heavily on him, as he largely ignores Kurisu’s rant about what he did. Maybe he is just glad that they’re alright, but I wonder why he is talking to nobody about the mails he keeps getting. Suzuha or Daru seem to be appropriate candidates to consult.

Speaking of Suzuha: She said Kurisu works with SERN, which I currently sincerely believe she does not. But it seems that at some point in the future, she works with them and is part of the evil.

Suzuha has quite the rack. Part time warriors apparently fight not only with force…

So they want to try and transfer memories to their past selves now. Sounds like and interesting concept to me. It’s also a new possibility as to why Moeka is sometimes so disturbed and generally a bit weird and paranoid. I also noticed Okarin rubbing his temple strangely this episode and I wonder if they already transferred memories without him even realizing it right away.

The funniest moment in this episode, however, is when Okarin sneaks up to Kurisu and makes her complete a common 2ch phrase by reflex and thus, make it impossible for her to deny she is a citizen of that dark place.

Go for it Okarin! GO!

Damn this was a good episode and it’s finally getting very interesting. It appears that SERN finally becomes aware of Okarin. There is one thing that worries me, tho. According to ANN there will be 12 episodes, which means that there will be either a shitload of development in the next two episodes (possibly to a point where it gets really bad because too many things happen at once) or there will be a huge cliffhanger. Both would really suck and I vote for a second season.

…a very important part of female anatomy, which happens to be of great interest to males but must not be fondled without consent, which you are currently doing

Is this some kind of new fanservice? Ruka is disarmed and promtly raped by Okarin? Who knows what would’ve happened if those two were alone…

Back to the episode itself: It was epic! Urushibara Ruka is now delicious cake instead of delicious trap, but she still has delicious flat chest, which is delicious… Okarin inspects Ruka thoroughly but has to face Kurisu’s wrath as a result. Do I smell envy? Kurisu has a lot more to offer to inspect, but I guess he couldn’t think of a good excuse to fondle her, so he went for Ruka. His harem lab gets more and more girls. Even Suzuha became a member of the harem lab.

Hmm… strict tsundere tensai hentai 2ch shoujo… it’s getting better and better. Every time you think you’ve seen it all, god slaps you in the face with this

In any case, Suzuha gets extra screentime this episode. She tells Okarin that she is trying to meet her father, Barrel Titor (?), the next day. If she misses that, she’ll have to leave the town (why?!). Okarin tells Suszuha to come to his lab for one last time whether she meets her dad or not, but she never shows up and sends Okarin a mail saying “I’m sorry, goodbye” instead. To stop her from leaving, Okarin sends himself a D-Mail to follow Suzuha, regardless of what Kurisu says. The world line moves, and Suzuha stays with them (seriously, just what happens?).

Okarin also got a mail earlier stating “I am watching you” followed by a picture of pudding, which likely refers to the gel-phenomenon occuring during physical time travel (Gel-Banana, Jellyman’s Report). If this assumtion is true – and that’s what makes the episode so interesting – SERN has caught wind of Okarin’s experiments.
