This episode is teasing us in our ships. Did Waka knew that he and Yuzuki will go on a date? Why is Kashima jealous to Mami...koshiba just because Hori cheered for him?

Lmao, weird misunderstanding.

And Kashima's song... Yuzuki is ready for it. HAHA.
The world shall know the truth soon.

It looks like hearing her sing possibly rivals the pain of having to hear Vogon poetry.
It's probably what Vogon poetry is based on.

D'Aww Mikorin is so cute.

The fight between Kashima and Hori was cool. On one hand I just want them to get together already, on the other hand...

Awwn, Seo is such a softy. ''Wouhou! Look at them being slaughtered!!''
Well, who doesn't like seeing people die in a B movie?

Waka, you're such a stalker. But a cute stalker. So innocent.

Nozaki is still as great as acting. He also know his scenario very well, mmm mmm. Also, dat bear costume... xD

Since Kashima basically is Nagisa, it's not as unlikely happening as you think.

Anyway, the romance teasing in this anime is simply beautiful: Teasing and hyping romance that great although the romance is barely there (or even almost not exist at all).

Seo should invite Wakamatsu often. Seo wearing earplugs made me laugh hard. Can't handle Kashima's voice. Mikoshiba was perfect for that role. It was both Kashima and Mikoshiba combo. Wakamatsu still tries to find out something good about Seo. I can't believe he got that misunderstanding about her voice.

"If only we had someone who is easily deceived, someone who'd jump at the chance if you asked him..." *Cue Nozaki, Chiyo and Kashima holding Mikorin* :D

And I loved Chiyo's expressions as Nozaki was about to get on stage, only to had her hopes crushed when he appeared in a bear costume. That girl is just too cute. <3

Also, Kashima got pissed when Hori cheered Mikorin Mamikoshiba on.

Wakamatsu and Seo make a good couple. A bit of an awkward pairing, but sill kinda cute. Funny how he misunderstood Kashima's godawful singing voice (which put Nozaki and Chiyo in pure agony) for Seo's.

"Quit now or practice a year, then quit." Seo is harsh, but brutally honest.

Speaking of Seo, I love the complete disconnect with the movie and how she should react to certain scenes.

BTW, Chiyo does know Nozaki based his secondary couple on Seo and Wakamatsu, right? She's basically wishing them together by how she reacts to the new manga storyline without hinting that she's aware of this.

Have I mentioned before how I love each character's personality in this series? Sakura is lighthearted and dreamy, but also surprisingly down to earth. Nozaki, for a shoujo manga artist, is strangely unperceptive of people's emotions unless he's purposely studying examples for manga. Mikorin [ or shall I say Mamikoshiba? ] comes off as the typical flirtatious womanizer, but turns out he's pretty far from that. Kashima seems independent, yet she still seeks out attention from her senpai, Hori, who likes to be the boss but is often uneasy about his decisions. Seo appears to be a daredevil who completely disregards others, yet she's social and has a more gentle side expressed in her singing. And Wakamatsu comes off as extremely shy and tentative, but he has a determination that you can't help but admire.

Though to be honest we haven't had too much character development that strays from those tropes, I think it's the mix of all of them that makes each episode hilarious. There's also that touch of the artist genius; I can relate to a lot of Nozaki's issues with his manga, and I think people who act or put on plays will be familiar with Hori's difficulties. I believe that if I was a manga artist, I would definitely be looking everywhere for inspiration.

But that's about the series as a whole. The intention, now, is to discuss this single episode.

I can definitely see some Wakamatsu/Seo romance, or just a close friendship, despite the differences in their personalities. Seo is so strange to Wakamatsu that he can't help but follow her everywhere, looking for something, anything that would give her a quality that he might deem normal. And Seo, social and extroverted, encourages the shy Wakamatsu to try new things because it's part of her personality. Additionally, there might be some manipulation involved- she knows that he is easygoing and will agree to almost anything. Seo contradicts the idea of the typical shoujo heroine, which is why she's a great foil for Sakura. She doesn't have much consideration for others, is very independent, and clearly doesn't really think about what others think of her. Sakura, on the other hand, is rather concerned about how she appears, especially to Nozaki-kun, and she works hard to please others and keep everyone happy, though it's not obviously evident at all points of this anime.

And let's talk about the other two, Hori and Kashima! Kashima really wants to please Hori, though I can't say for sure whether it's due to her having romantic feelings for him, or just wanting to impress her senpai. Because so much of her life consists of acting, Kashima feels a pertinent need to mold herself to others' expectations, and when people seem disappointed by her actions, it really devastates her. However, she is a good people-reader and can tell what most people [ except Hori ] want from her.

I'm most definitely looking forward to next episode, and more Mamokorin.

Lovely to see so many of the cast in one episode. Though at some times I thought it was a bit boring. I'm wondering how they will work out the (one-sided?) love betweeen Sakura and Nozaki.

Nozaki sure was lucky that Seo invited Wakamatsu to a movie and he can get his reference material XD.

Wakamatsu... give up and surrender the armrest to Seo already, you can't win.

LOL, only Wakamatsu was moved by the movie since Seo was expressionless until the guns started firing and people started dying...

Seo sure is freaking hilarious XD.

Wakamatsu sacrificed himself for good of others T.T

Kashima sure has a lot of different talents :/

Tone deaf eh... RIP Nozaki's, Chiyo's and Seo's ears T.T

Dat misunderstanding on Wakamatsu's part XD.

LOL, the fight was rather but Nozaki spoiled everything with his terrible acting...

Dat costume doe...

I just knew Mikorin was the one they were going to call and fool XD.

Hahaha, Hori realized that Mikorin's the model for Mamiko's character.

Mami...koshiba!

Why was Seo a bad person for telling her friend she saw her boyfriend holding hands with someone else? Seems like that's something you should do for a friend. o_o

I like how I started off hating Seo but now I'm upset she's not prominent enough.
