The not-so-subtle commentary when the religious pair shows up at the mention of money. I liked how Kigurumi succumbs to peer pressure, and her incredibly vivid imagination. Kukuru's pregnancy was great as well. Another good episode, and more to be offended about.

This is gonna be close call between Joshiraku and Binbougami for the "funniest of season" award. For now, I'd say Joshiraku is slightly in front.

I loved the way Kigu would always act innocent before letting us know that she actually isn't. But damn, when she's all innocent, she's as cute as 666 Kittens.

I loved pretty much every skit in this episode, but I think the one in the beginning (about lottery and money in general) and the pregnancy one in the end were the best.

Also, I friggin ADORE kukuru

Much better episode than the first, or at least had more relatable humour for a western audience. That masked person ... so bloomin distracting! I was thinking through all the second half 'who the hell are you?' and 'why havn't the girls noticed you?'.

BTW .. the ED is as awesome as ever

I didn't expect her to punch the old lady! Ahahaahaha.

And I prefer left! I prefer north! Ahahaahaha.

Kukuru is so awesome. Doing that false pregnancy... then going insane when she lost her imaginary baby!

As usual, this episode is fun, though I didn't get some of the reference.

This show rocks so hard it hurts. It's just... beyond my comprehension.

Kigu, I love her. Her dark side made my day. That pregnancy part also.

I wouldn't be myself If I didn't post bunch of shiet, so, here:

I was drinking cocoa when this scene appeared. Now I have to buy new keyboard.


And when I saw this scene, I was all like 'lol it's me'. Seriously. I can't remember which is right and which is left.


And here I thought 'being otaku before being born... cool...'


The ED is addicting.

Well not surprising the only references most people get here are the international mascots and anime parodies ala Black Jack.

And like everyone else, still loving the ED, second best ED of the year next to DxD's though.

@Eucliwood

Dunno where you live, but I know over here (germany), McD is pretty expensive, so I'd only go there with those nice 2 for 1 coupons.... and even then I choose a Döner half of the time... more bang for my buck.

Speaking of food, here is something for hungry Kigu-fanciers:

Why would you ask who the masked person is?

I've just watched the first two episodes of this series and it's exceeds my really limited expectations a lot. Looking forward to the next ones. This stuff is FUNNY.

This episode was funnier to me than the first, mostly because I understood most of the references. The pregnancy part was hilarious and really cute.

I thought the ED was by Momoiro Clover at first as the voices and musical style seems to be something only they could come up with, but it turns out not to be.

Still one of the best ED's of the season (in terms of musical hilarity), hands down.

The boyfriend part and the pregnancy part after that where great real good laugh there.
How can you get so lost in thought that you think your having a baby and even get one of your friends to get along with it some nice acting there.

I also learned where the embassy of my country is in Tokyo not that i need to know.

You never know. Two months ago a trip outside my country was the last thing I thought I would ever do, and now I'm planning a vacation in Japan this November.

(Edit: I just remembered I've been to Toronto Canada for business, but back when I drove up there it was very easy to drive between the US and Canada and it didn't feel like I had really left the US.)

I caught the Toradora uniform, too. I'm guessing the other ones are also references, though I don't recognize any of them.

Funny thing is, the first thing which caught my attention about this show was how much Mari looked like Minori. Then I realized why.
'I met many people. We were separated. And then reunited. This tune contains all those feelings.'

Well if going as a tourist and everything goes right you don't need the Embassy if your country.
But if your planning to do business then it might be useful to contact the Embassy they can give you some great tips for doing business in other country.
Last year November i went to Mexico and to be honest i still don't know where the Embassy of my country is in Mexico well i think it's in Mexico city but that still doesn't help out much it also would have been a two or three days trip to Mexico city from the point where i was.

Also November is probably one of the best times to travel it's out of season so it's not expensive and since there are no school vacations around that time most people you will encounter don't have children or have children old enough to take care of themselves.
So it's also a very relaxing time to travel because of that.

About the border between US and Canada i heard you can cross it freely without any border inspection like here in Europe is that true?
Canada also has the some language as the US so i can understand the feeling for still being in the US, tho they also speak French in certain parts.
