Impressions:

Machi is my favourite character purely because of her hilarious personality. She can actually be pretty adorable as well, like in this episode when Ikuto compliments her cooking. It being edible is uproarious at the least, as well all know Machi is basically a failure at anything related to being a normal person xD. Her looks and height also make her seem very young, though she’s certainly not a loli-looking character. The actual episode itself is alright—not the best, though with Machi as the central character, it couldn’t go wrong! It goes to show that a favourite character can turn a decent episode into a highly enjoyable one, as did this.

The various schemes and methods the girls use to try and make Ikuto are obviously crazy for the sake of comedy, though it does mean that no one actually likes Ikuto for who he is, which is kind of sad. This is why I’m rooting for Suzu (whose the logical choice) since she actually seems to care about Ikuto. She’s never seen him as a possible sex companion (ie, a ‘male’), which is probably why I like her character a lot. Hopefully some kind of development in this respect will occur, though I’m not betting on it. I have to say though, it could just be that Suzu hasn’t reached an age where she has romantic feelings for anyone (though 13 is a bit old…)
