Summary:
It’s time for the Virgin Mary Festival, and although Kanako represents the second years, she knows next to nothing about the Virgin Mary. Everyone’s descriptions fool Kanako into thinking this is going to be a hot cosplay parade, and Kanako knows she can’t ask Mariya for help. This ends up driving Kanako to Ayari and vice president Natsuru for information. Ayari mentions that she doesn’t hate Mariya; they are just comfortable around each other since they have been playing together for so long.
Of course this is a lie, and Ayari hates Mariya’s guts. It all started with Mariya’s constant bullying, as Ayari has always been kind and easy to manipulate. Unfortunately, one day Mariya went too far and ever since then the cousins have been on bad terms. There’s a whole bunch of religious information doled out while Kanako tries to work her pervert skills on Ayari, and at the end Matsurika hints that Mariya is secretly a big softy for all of his relatives.
Reaction:
The most informative part of the episode was probably seeing how Shizu and Mariya cross-dressed from a very early age. I’m not completely sure yet if Ayari knows that Mariya is a boy, but between the flashbacks, Mariya went from looking like a boy to looking like a girl. More importantly, I was very impressed with Matsukira’s pinpoint accuracy, and amused that Matsurika puts her name on all her basketballs. When I sing songs of prayer, I pray for more Matsurika basketball scenes.
The rest of the episode was fairly boring, and all the Festival of the Virgin Mary stuff bored me to tears. The only interesting religious stuff came from Mariya, regarding tax-loopholes and powers of the Church. I’ve noticed that Kanako’s friends are beginning to sense her perverted nature, and Ayari also deflected Kanako’s attempt to get the president’s bust size. However, I was completely baffled by what Mariya gave Ayari with the rabbit claw-hand. It seemed like Yonakuni got eaten at the end, but I suspect that is too much to hope for. Also, were those bullets next to the tweezers in the clinic?

That angel song was funny.
And ” Nice angle” accompanied by a thumbs up, being the first thing she thought when she was approached after being knocked down was classic.
I also noticed the bullets, couldnt work out if it was just randomness, an implied joke, or maybe Matsurika actually sniped Kanako and was trying to cover it up with a very accurate and extremely quick ball toss straight after…
I was definitely confused by the bullets, and I subscribe to the snipe-then-toss cover-up theory. Kanako keeps her eyes on the prize, and even when drowning in a pool of her own blood, she knows to stop and sniff the roses and look up skirts.
Hmm, I didn’t even notice the bullets. Was just too caught up with the angel-cosplay song. I guess one basketball just isn’t enough to stop Kanako’s perverseness lol.
Whatever happened to the party trick at the end of the last episode? I was disappointed that we didn’t see that.
Wait you did not revel in Kanako’s Cosplay no Yousei routine, what are you Jihad-kun’s new squeeze or something?
Still those puny bullets will not stop Kanako, the Yuri is with her. I think that Yuzuru is starting to realize just how FRIENDLY Kanako wants to be with Momoi-chi.
Haha, no I did not turn into Gundam overnight. The cosplay song was cute, but kinda badly sung. I think I was just bored by all the religious talk.
Probably need enough tranquilizer stuff to take down a giraffe or the Tokyo Tower.
Indeed, the only way to fight Yuri is with Yuri! I have high hopes for future Yuzuru intercepts!
Because she wants Sachi for herself? I was afraid Yuzuru was going to snipe out Nanami last episode.
Cosplay Angel is the worst sounding best song ever.
