Ninomiya-kun – 07
You’re doing it wrong.
Summary:
Reika wonders what is wrong with her figure, but Mitsuru bluntly tells her that her boobs are small. He than suggests that she just change the standard, resulting in Reika converting the majority of people in the country. With this, the big boobed Mayu becomes the enemy. In a cold freezer, Ninomiya and Mayu begin to freeze. Ninomiya decides that he must massage Mayu to keep her warm, but he is hit on the head by Ryoko for doing it wrong. This is part of the usual filmmaking, but Reika bursts in to question Ninomiya’s actions. At school, even Mayu has become involved in the girls’ serving of Ninomiya. In the library later, Ninomiya questions his feelings toward Mayu and Reika. He wonders how he could have forgotten about such an important promise, and remembers the time that Reika had changed personalities. Mayu remembers the kiss from that time as she watches Ninomiya from afar, but she is shocked when she sees Okushiro Irori get closer to him. Mayu continues to try to get closer to Ninomiya after school, but Irori rubs up on him before she gets the chance. As Hinako comforts a despairing Mayu, a green haired boy laughs to himself at the sight.
Hinako reveals to Mayu that Irori is actually quite beautiful while walking home with her, and offers her help. Mayu declines, however, as she doesn’t not see any meaning if she does not confront her own problems. Mayu’s consciousness fades as Hinako leaves, but the boy from earlier catches her before she can hit the ground. Ninomiya finally sees Mayu at school after a few days of absence, but he is surprised to see her talking to another boy. Before he can learn more of the situation, he is captured by his friends. In a room surrounded by boys, Inoue and Yoshida reveal their plan to comit yobai with girls. Ninomiya is taken back when they suggest that he do it to Mayu, and he walks out of the school in a weakened state afterwards. The green haired boy with the red eyes claims that he will be taking Mayu, causing Ninomiya to collapse shortly after. Seeing this, Mayu quickly runs to his side.
At the Ninomiya household, Mayu and Reika discover from Ryoko that Ninomiya has become exhausted from a cold. Ryoko and Mikihiko soon leave, and Mayu despairs when she finds that Reika and the others must go for their own reasons as well. Reika attempts to force Mayu to get her act together, before leaving via helicopter. Mayu does her best to care for Ninomiya, but his fever will not go down. When Ninomiya realizes what is happening, he remembers another part of his past. While caring for a sick girl, she had instructed him to kiss her if she could not wake up. When Ninomiya lets out a scream, Mayu fears for his life. Through Hinako’s advice, Mayu prepares Ninomiya something to eat. Ninomiya finally eats the food after seeing how concerned Mayu is, but this causes other problems. Mayu gives a special shot to Ninomiya next, causing him even more pain. Unable to stop himself after Mayu’s actions later, Ninomiya embraces her. Mayu takes the chance to ask about his kiss with Reika, but she finds that he has passed out. Everyone returns at the same time later, finding Ninomiya in a misleading situation.
Preview: More boobies….and eating…or something.
Impression:
First things first. Readers of my Seto no Hanayome posts may already know this, but I am a huge fan of kansai. I’m not that into megane, but I don’t think I would mind seeing more of Irori on screen from here on. That’s the thing about this show, they mix and match moe points like crazy. I guess it works for some people. This episode was pushing the limits on blatant fanservice, but I actually laughed quite a bit. “Yobai” is also known as “night crawling”, or sneaking into rooms at night to have sex with girls. No, I’m not kidding. I was kind of surprised to hear that term coming from my innocent cartoons. I was pretty annoyed by the return of the man harem at school, and Ninomiya walking out of the school looking violated was just disturbing. I mean, they bagged him like an unsuspecting Pamela. The whole thing with the guy going after Mayu is pretty dumb too. Considering that he has green hair and speaks kansai dialect, I’m assuming that he is related to Irori. The second half of the episode consisted only of Mayu fanservice and lame sexual jokes, so I wasn’t extremely excited about that (the bad cooking joke is getting old). It kills me when those dumb childhood past segments show up, because the presentation is just so horrible. Speaking of presentation, I love how the eye catch art is like five times better than the art in the show. Next week looks like a continuation of this “story”, so hopefully Reika won’t be missing in some random country again.

STONE THE WITCH!!!
Well this show has always been a balance between laughing with the show because it is genuinely funny, and laughing AT the show because of the blatant stupidity. Either way I’m laughing. Nurse Mayu was pretty cute, but still doesn’t beat the more conservative maid Reika!
Also, I believe the eye-catches are using the art style from the original light novels. Haven’t read them so I don’t know if they are taken directly or just drawn by the same artist. But I concur that the art is pretty well drawn comparatively.
Need them bare
I think the eyecatch art may either be official manga illustrations or perhaps done by the mangaka
Insufficient Reika this week.
I love Ninomiya-kun, I really do, but I am beginning to tire of the flutey flash-backs. We already know the three have past history together but we don’t need it bashed into our heads at every opportunity. What the heck is this obsession of anime creators with childhood kissing and idiotic hare-brained promises?
Oh dear, a nurse Mayu. I’d feel bad for whoever gets treated by her. Seriously though, this show needs more Reika awesomeness.
Zakarum > Heh, yea. That’s why I can appreciate shows like Crescent Love. They’re so bad that they are hilarious. I guess this show kind of has a mix.
Yamcha > Go back to dragonball noob. You’re not even good enough for the Z fighters!
Hinano > yea, probably :S….that’s the case with a lot of anime adaptions…and the anime art usually looks like crap when compared.
Di Gi Kazune > Tell me about it! >:3
LazyMcChan > The past revealing is just retarded. Whenever that horrible bgm track starts playing, I know exactly what to expect, and I don’t want to see it. Ugh.
Halcyon > Worst maid ever.
I’m curious to see Reika in a nurse outfit now… dammit. With an exceedingly large hypodermic needle as well! Seriously that thing could kill you just getting stabbed with it what is Mayu thinking???(and also why Ninomiya was holding his crotch after eating the terrible food!)
More tsuntsun Reika!
This show is rediculous
I hope no one is watching this show for anything other than pointlessness and Reika-sama…
There were other reasons to watch?
I second that Totali.
