Blogging anime late into the night instead of studying for finals since 2007.

Summary:

Tayura prepares breakfast in the Minamoto household while Chizuru spends a long time in the tub as usual. When Tayura hears knocking at the door, he answers to find Nozomu outside. When Kouta wakes up in his house, he is soon greeted by Chizuru who has prepared breakfast for him. She has secretly done this to get ahead of Nozomu, but Kouta has a difficult time enjoying the food when he tries it. Chizuru apologizes to Kouta for the mistakes she made while walking to school with him, but he only attempts to cheer her up. Kouta worries about Chizuru when he sees that she has bandages on her fingers, but quickly becomes embarrassed after comforting her. While Kouta is only a few steps away from Chizuru, Nozomu comes crashing into him. Nozomu tells Kouta off with a bit of charm, before quickly leaving ahead for school.

Upon reaching the school, Nozomu acts as if she has never met Kouta before. When Chizuru confronts her, Nozomu only insists that her relationship with Kouta isn’t what it appears to be. As the rest of the students can see how ridiculous this situation is, Tayura admits to have given Nozomu some advice from the book that Chizuru had been reading. Already suspecting this, Chizuru gives her usual punishment to her brother. During lunch, Chizuru and Nozomu both present lunches to Kouta. He has trouble choosing, but eventually takes a bite out of both at the same time. This results in his collapsing, however, to the excitement of his watching classmates. Yatsuka scolds both of the girls later, but he is interrupted by the entrance of Kumada and his usual followers. Kumada warns the girls of their interaction with humans, then denying the problems that Yatsuka implies that he is causing. Chizuru and Nozomu greet Kouta when he is released from the infirmary, but they are quick to ask which of the meals he enjoyed more. As Kouta is indecisive, he is forced to participate in another challenge. Of course, this only results in his passing out again.

Chizuru places all of the blame on her brother while they are at home that night, forcing him to pay compensation. Kouta faces another challenge at school the next day, but it is obvious that both of the foods presented are inedible. Chizuru has the girls in class sample her cooking later, resulting in a bad end for three of them. When the twins Rin and Ai try the food, however, they believe that it is very delicious. Tayura finds that Kouta is oblivious as to why Chizuru is acting so differently in the infirmary later, when Chizuru appears again to cause even more trouble for him. When Akane meets Kouta on the school rooftop later, she blames the recent events on Kouta’s indecisiveness. She tells him to clearly state what is bad to the girls, further implying that he is a hypocrite.

Kouta attempts to have a talk with Chizuru alone later, but the two are interrupted by Omi who sends a blast in Chizuru’s direction shortly after confronting them. This blast only hits Kouta, making Omi panic at the pinch he would be in if Kouta was injured. This makes Mio suggest that they will do anything, taking her and Chizuru to the school gymnasium. Inside, Chizuru begins rubbing Kouta with her body in order to help him heal. Nozomu suddenly appears to do this as well, however, stating that she followed Kouta’s smell. Kouta regains consciousness, but not for long as he only passes out after seeing the situation he is in.

As the food challenges continue on the next day, Chizuru reaches her limit with Nozomu. When Chizuru pushes Nozomu down, Kouta attempts to stop her. Remembering Akane’s words from before, he makes an attempt to scold Chizuru. He accidentally bites his tongue, but Chizuru still runs out in tears after hearing his words. When Kouta finally finds Chizuru, she drags him into an empty room with her. Chizuru states that Kouta’s actions made her happy, then suggesting that he can do anything to punish her. Kouta eventually comes to the conclusion that he will give Chizuru a spanking, but he becomes shocked when she lowers her panties in order for him to do this to her. Kouta finally gives Chizuru a good spanking, but this isn’t enough for her. Chizuru lets Kouta abuse her even more, resulting in quite a few more spanks throughout the afternoon.

Preview: Fun with cosplay.

Impression:

You guys can thank my dorm’s fire alarm for waking me so that I could do this post a few hours earlier today. Yea…terrible, right? So anyways, this episode played on the bento theme that was suggested in the last week’s preview. It went on for a lot longer than I expected it would, but there were a few twists that made it pretty entertaining. As typical as the “girls who can’t cook” challenges are, Kanokon managed to make it quite fun. Even funnier was Nozomu trying to act like a tsundere early in the episode, as it looked like it came straight out of a crappy bishoujo anime. I’d probably agree with Aroduc that the rest of the episode quickly took a turn into the dirty depths though. I think I suggested something like, “This show is almost hentai with a budget.” while watching how much of a secret pervert Kouta was. And from the looks of the next episode preview, it looks like we’ll be going through 12 episodes of love comedy action and dirty fanservice. I was wondering where all the plot went from the drama CD, novels, manga, etc, but now I’m certain that all of the events in the anime are happening quite later in the timeline. Hey, I’m fine with that. But now I’m feeling really exhausted. I should probably get to sleeping.
