Today we are introduced to Touma’s brothers, who all have their own personality quirks.
You will find this review to be refreshing and entertaining.
I guarantee it.
It appears we are introduced to Touma’s older siblings (Natsuki is in high school and Akira is in middle school) and Natsuki seems to have some kind of crush on Haruka. We also see our boy Hosaka make an appearance; he asks Natsuki to sample his bento to see if it is worthy to be tasted by a woman (Haruka). He also tries to get him to join the volleyball club.
The meeting with Haruka ends horribly as he is inadvertently shoved right into Haruka’s not-so-subtle bosom. He ends up getting a punch to the face.
The most moe moment of this episode: Chiaki finding a small rock (it fell off of a passing truck) and kicking it all the way back home. She gets startled by a dog along the way, which was also kinda cute (she called the dog a dumbass for barking at her, lol). By the time she gets home, Kana ends up kicking the rock so far that it bounces off of their building and lands right back on the truck. Chiaki gives chase but falls and has to get a bandaid on her face (and Kana gets reprimanded by Haurka).
Fujioka also returns and is unhappy when Kana and Akira are talking to each other. Fujioka has been (un)officially named the school banchou, or gang leader, and Akira is intimidated while Riko finds Fujioka’s gangsterness utterly adorable.
This episode was delightfully humorous and entertaining, but the art was [Mike Breen]WAY off the mark[/Mike Breen] this week (You’ll see in the pictars) so that will lead to a deduction in overall score. For whatever reason, the artists had trouble drawing eyes properly. I guess they had a day where one artist draws one eye and another draws the other eye and they have a race to see how close the eyes’ resemblance can get without touching. Then again it is possible that this has been going on since Episode 1 but my dumb ass only caught this now.
Rating: 8.2 nosebleeds out of 10.

OMG why is one pupil bigger than the other
Hey man why her eye look pointy and the other round
Again with this shit…
But alas, in case you don’t care, boobs/fanservice!
Natsuki, you lucky motherfucker…

actually Brian, the eyes other than akira, there’s not really a big deal, as the eyes’ different shape was meant to be illustrating the angel of the characters’ face. only that it weren’t done that nicely.
sidenote: in the manga,natsuki hugged (like a confession) on haruka instead of digging his face in haruka no oppai when he was losing balance because of the shove.
haruka hit him because he held onto that pose for a min. XD
