Tokimeki Memorial ~ Only Love: Episode 10

January 16th, 2007 at 2:34 am | Category: Tokimeki Memorial

Rating: 8.3/10

Impressions:

Heh, I actually liked this episode a fair bit! And just when I thought Tokimeki was running dry of ideas…Well, the main reason is because this episode is an awesome tribute to my favourite character, the canteen-girl! Who unfortunately never opens her eyes…And too bad she doesn’t get as much air time as I had hoped. I really wanted it to be based on her, but it ended up being completely about Aoba again…Another redeeming thing is that this episode is actually fairly funny. Aoba’s friends going down one after the other is rather predictable, but humorous nonetheless. The one thing I hate about this show is the attempted Aoba and girl interaction. Why does it have to get serious? Can’t it just stay all comedy and slapstick until sometime near the end like a normal harem? They just HAD to include that sappy moment at the end of the episode…and I don’t even like Sayuri…Oh well, Tokimeki is Tokimeki; no helping that. Heh…this anime makes me want to watch Shuffle as I know it’s far better…Either that or re-read Negima!

    This anime needs to stop wavering in the middle and decide whether they want to stay a school rumble comedy rip off or go love romance drama. This middle ground sucks because half the episode is good from a comedy perspective, the other half is decent from a drama perspective, but they phail hard when put together. Another 14 episodes of this is going to melt my brain X_X

    Thats exactly what i think Shirukii.

    Not a bad episode though. I enjoyed it too.

    Pan-lady-san does open her eyes. They just happen to be either demonic-red( first episode), or diabolically-white( this episode). ^^;

    Cheers.

    This anime looks decent, I had already decided to get this before seeing the screenshots but now that Ive seen em Im sure to give it a go. Oh and that top mid screenie reminds me of onsokumaru from 2×2 shinobuden which is also an awesome short series lol.

    prince leon: that includes me lol

    shirukii & retsgip: id much rather a full comedy series rather than the corny semi-romantic spar of the moment conversations..which this show is full of.

    skane: lol, i guess we have yet to see her open her eyes normally

    tokidoki: i will let you judge for yourself ;-)
