Impressions:

I’m completely lost. I need to wait for some people to blog this episode before I write anything as I don’t have an inkling of what happened. Something about Tama-chan, the blog, and how to make him from clay. Then there was the painful separation, happy reunion and even more painful permanent parting of Tama-chan and the black haired girl, but it doesn’t matter since she can just make another Tama! Usually, I can get the gist of the episode after watching it raw, but this time I really don’t get anything (dialogue-wise). I can say that I am pretty surprised Tama-chan is important enough to get a whole episode to himself? Running out of ideas? I hope not, as I want to see more development of the plot and characters. In every show like this, there has to be some good episodes wasted on irrelevant events. Sure, if you watch the show just to see the characters, that’s great! But a lot of the time, the interaction that goes on doesn’t develop the character’s personalities at all, which is really quite a waste of a perfectly good half an hour time slot. The not so good quality isn’t helping either. Although I must say, Anri was pretty cute this episode, dunno why though.

However, the black haired girl (can’t remember name) turned out to be not the character I expected. It seems that she’s not the mature person that I thought (and wanted her to be), as she is stupid enough to go looking for her partner in the worst places. Oh, that doesn’t matter, why am I complaining about such little things? That part was probably just to get a laugh out of the audience. And still no Haruhi! Even though she is depressingly boring and dull, she needs to get more screen time. Right now, she seems to have a pretty good friendship with Yuuma, but the problem is nothing happened to lead them up to this point. A quarter of the series has gone so I hope some more appropriate and relevant things happen. Next episode, we see what’s-his-name looking at porn, as well as some other stuff inside the school at night. Hopefully, there will be a lot of pairing moments in that episode (I really want to see Anri fall in love with someone, doesn’t matter who though). Ooh, one more thing, that mysterious white haired girl with the hat has a really deep voice, totally unexpected! I could be wrong though, as her only line this episode was a mere ‘hmph’.
