Manabi Straight! Episode 6

Rating: 8.4/10

Impressions:

OK yeah, so I said I was dropping this, but I changed my mind lol. I’m having trouble discerning who the real main character is in this show. It seems like everyone is going to get their own episodes, where they are developed in terms of character, as well as episodes with another main character to enforce the friendship and bonding theme, which Manabi Straight! displays. Manabi should be the main character, as it is technically about her ‘changing the school’ and enforcing all of these notions on friendship etc. At the moment though, Mikan is getting more screen time than her. And I never knew Mikan had originally been such good friends with Mucchi.

Mucchi really appears to be a boy this episode. Her tomboyishness is just too misleading, especially when she spends her time with our super girly-sounding Mikan. The two are as good as siblings or boyfriend/girlfriend. It would seem pretty normal if they were grade schoolers, with their misleadingly small bodies, though as we all know, they are in high school (year 11). They look really cute together though. But anyway, I’m still very distressed about the lack of Momoha. Where is my Momoha episode? It seems like she’s only there for comic relief at the moment, and she’s my favourite character…

    MUCCHI IS A TRAP.

    Well, we’ve already seen Mikan’s latent lesbian tendencies when she was getting all misty-eyed at the student council president from the other school.

    This could turn into the next Strawberry Panic, which would be bad. And so very very wrong.
