THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
First part with Popular and Satou getting sick and getting two "helpers" but are worse by them there.

lol~ Souma already got a photo of younger her!!

Second part with both of them well, and Kyouko's decision on Inami's care (from Takanashi to Youhei) make Takanashi and her in awkward position. Then after a week of cold war, Inami explained about her opinion and made up (she thought about his feeling?). lol @ the end.

I don't get the preview... Satou is taking a break? And about school festival? Or about Takanashi's cute things?

The underling twins were pretty funny to watch, as there is clearly something else under the facade... then Takanashi VS Inami was sort of boring...

1st part with the pinch replacement twins was painful to watch. Giving them background for lousy 5 minutes of series appearance was a waste of episode time.

Althought 2nd part was painful for them wagnaria staff.

I think depending on how attached you are to Inami and Takanashi, you'll either love this episode, or think it alright. Since I personally really liked how the first season played their relationship in the end, I really ended up getting hit hard and gushing sympathy by the results of the manager's "concrete appreciation".

...So everyone else who feels otherwise is free to do so, but for I all I care, they can just fix the door.

Oh! And of course, I love the way the characters will comment on others' relationships without realizing the irony...That is, of course, Yachiyo's "Takanashi should notice Inami" speech in the kitchen...Right, Satou-san? ^^;;

I think I just like the way some characters will know things, and others won't, and how that varies--with the exception of Soma, who knows it all...actually, it'd be interesting to see more of him...I think he's the only one who isn't tied to anyone else directly (Kyoko's gang, Satou and Yachiyo, Poplar and Takanashi, Inami and Takanashi, Yamada and Otoo, on and on, but...hm, the mystery lingers?).

...Yeah, I take Working for way more than it's worth, but, it ends up being worth it anyway. ^//^;;

Good episode, even though there was too much Inami, they should add more megane waitress instead, she's only got a few random shoots during the episodes.

Ahaha Kyoko's gangsters are pretty hardcore. Popura is even cuter when sick *3*

Part 2 was... meh. Felt bad sitting through it. Inami's androphobia is dragging out way too long imo. And Takanashi overdid his cold war :|

Why did Kyoko wait until now to call in her underlings?
Surely there must've been more occasions where she could've used them.
Instead of hiring Takanashi they could've taken one of the underlings for free?
I didn't really like this episode that much :L

The twins were not funny nor interesting to watch.

The second half would have been good, but we've seen too much of this in previous season. Takanashi and Inami fight; they make up, but Inami resorts to punching him in the end anyways. Weakest episode so far.

Thanks, person who gave me this on another site a long time ago, lol.

i'm gonna have to respectfully disagree with all your points besides the whole takanashi X Inami stuff,haha i loved the Twins i think the added yankees is a nice mix to all the personalities this show already has and i hope to see more of em :3.

The first half of this episode was boring. The weak scene that Youhei was hit by Inami with her bag couldn't make you laugh, if you knew Henrietta's sharp smash with her violin case.

The second half of the episode is OK for me, since I think Inami cute. The scene Takanashi still escort her with his manipulator is lovable. But his mindset against her was so dense and I felt sorry for her.

Simply put, Inami is an enemy of men. She brought misery to so many, that due to practice, her left hook seems to be unstoppable.

GAH Takanashi disgusts me!!! D:< He was such a bastard to Inami. I couldn't even believe it. I was half crying for her during the episode. If a guy I liked treated me like that, I'd quit the job and never see his stupid face again. Yeah she didn't choose her words right at first, but wow really Takanashi?! If you hate older woman that much, just turn gay or become a pedophile already. He really pisses me off. Inami's punching seems very normal compared to him. He even calls her a dog.. like wtf.

The twins were great in this episode though. Very funny. xD "I'll defeat you and become an only child." lolol

You don't notice how powerful one of Inami's punches is, before you see Takanashi hitting the floor after one. She should become a boxer, and against male opponents only. She would become champion quickly.

I see where Takanashi is coming from. I mean, it's like putting most of the work in for a group project, and then the guy that sits back and does nothing still gets an A. That's weaksauce. It might be because it's been awhile, but Inami's punches seemed unusually funny this episode.

Yeah...and yet I don't really because he's so amusing this way. xD

And DANGIT, Takanashi was BLEEDING at the end! J:( Inami needs to check herself. Wear fuzzy mittens to soften the blows. She's just not trying hard enough imo.
And I'd much prefer one of the twins (god not both; they don't really add to the charisma of the atmosphere when together) over Yamada. LOVED when Taneshima tried to push her back into the attic whereshebelongs.

I'm enjoying this season greatly. :)

I -- really like the twins. I think they're really charming; though do I find the whole cast to be charming.

As for the Takanashi-Inami thing, I'm not too sure how to feel. When Kyouko said he didn't need to care for her anymore and could just completely ignore her, I was a little bothered by the fact that he hadn't even thought of Inami as a friend. Because you wouldn't just stop spending time with a friend like that, right? ( I could possibly be remembering that wrong, since I watched the episode a few days ago lol. )
Of course his reaction to her comment is a whole different matter, since it does show he cares.

I think they should actually, I don't know, be friends before anything.

Though I guess dogs are man's best friend, aha.

This episode was very "blah" to me. It didn't really affect me much, but the "confrontation" between Takanashi and Inami was pretty rough. I'm still very confused about their relationship with each other, but I guess that's just because I'm more of a straightforward type of guy.

In my opinion, Takanashi took the situation a bit too far; but I can understand his plight in being punched 24/7. Personally if I was in a situation where he was, with a girl punching me with FULL FORCE in the face everyday multiple times, I'd get sick of it too no matter who the girl is.

Inami is trying her hardest, but yet again cannot control herself. I just wish there would be a moment where they communicate on a more romantic, FUCK EVEN FRIENDLY matter. They have their moments, but none of it feels genuine since Takanashi keeps referring to her as a dog.

Anyway with that being said, when Takanashi pushed Soma into Inashi; I was dying with laughter. Smart move, smart move.

I'm glad the whole 'Cold War' thing went on between Takanashi and Inami:
- I guess Takanashi got to hear more of how Inami really felt about wanting to be with him/under his guidance lol,
- and Inami I hope came to realise that what she said/did at least impacted on Takanashi enough to make him throw a little tantrum (albeit not romantically...he has yet to acknowledge THAT)

I totally don't blame Takanashi for acting that way though - he gets punched 24/7 yet puts in all this effort to help "train" her, plus don't forget that he can't be expected to be mature - he's one of the youngest staff there - heck, even Inami's older than him!

My fave part was that Inami punched him straight after! LMAO. epic - it defines their relationship. Finally, I also loved the irony of Jun agreeing with Yachiyo on how annoying it is for someone to not realise they are liked by someone else HAHAHAHA. Poor Jun, please Yachiyo, get the hint....

The underlings of Kyouko looked very interesting especially the girl that was embarrassed about her past.
So funny to hear that she started liking Kyouko because she watched her beat up her brother, that sibling love for you.
The brother also seems very happy with helping Kyouko with pretty much all of her cares.
They make me wonder what the rest of her gang looks like.
