Sisterly love.
*shakes head*
Kyoto should have done Ichigo Mashimaro. Though there’s a good chance they passed or else 75% of fanboys would have developed diabetes. But I’d like to see Kyoto do Mirai Nikki… that would be like seeing MJ take swings for the White Sox.
(Merry Christmas… in May… with 85 degree outside…)
Bah humbug. Sawa-chan’s attempted costume rape of Mio could have been better. There’s a few issues: not enough skin, not enough clothing strewn along the floor, not enough glistening sweat off said skin, not enough rosy red cheeks. In the manga, Mio was down to a bra. This is highly troubling.
Loved Mugi’s winter clothes this episode. She reminds me of Drago’s wife from Rocky IV in that getup. “You American vassists think you are so berry, berry gud, and we are so berry, berry vad.”
(I was hoping that the reason Mugi turned down the trip to Hawaii was, “Well, my family already owns a villa on Waikiki.”)
Okay… Santa’s Helper Mio… yet another line item that I need to add to my Christmas list. Santa, I’ve been a very, very good blogger this year. I don’t ask for much.
The Pop Music Club: breaking teachers since 2009.
The Minami Family: breaking everybody since 2007.
Mio gave Mugi maracas. There’s some symbolism here that I’m missing.
Ritsu’s got good taste. First she claims Mio, and now she wants to marry Ui.
(Note to self: must eliminate competition. Anyone know how I can get in touch with either Duke Togo or The Supporter?)
“I can’t be a bride now.”
(Note to self: hire both. Duke for Ritsu; The Supporter for Sawa-chan.)
Ui: most reliable imouto since… I dunno. She’s trouncing all the other reliable imoutos, including Welkin’s. Also best waifu material since Sayuri.
Sudden urge to buy some silverware.
Is it a double standard at Kyoto Animation? Why do get an eyeful of Taniguchi but not Mio?! This is the fanservice train wreck equivalent of having a plot focused around a dad bedding his 14 year old daughter to stop her from turning Godzilla and destroying the world. (I swear to Oharuhi-sama that this was an actual plot for an actual non-H anime.) Interesting enough, Taniguchi has the same pattern and color as Mio’s bowl. I’ll now stab my left temple with a salad fork.
(Kyoto, please explain to me why out of all these possible characters: Haruhi, Mikuru, LOL FANG-TAN, Taniguchi, Mio, Ritsu, Yui, Mugi, Tomoyo, Nagisa, Kyou, and Kotomi-chan, the only one who has been involved in a “service” incident in the past year is Taniguchi. Is Kyonko running the company?)
Updated count for gelbooru for 5/15: k-on with 1,658, Mio breaks 1k with 1,054, Yui with 552, Ritsu at 416, and Mugi with 408. Ui at 22 with Sawako at 24.
Mio looks fantastic in her kimono. I give it a generous 31 out of 10.
Mio looks more like a princess than Mugi. But they both sob the same…
See, if this were Shaft, they wouldn’t be able to resist putting their old characters and Triforces in the background of the store. Though I wouldn’t mind if Mio picked up a Tsukasa cell phone strap (maybe similar to mine) and said, “This is so 2007” and put it back. It would be her declaration of war on Tsukasa for Saimoe. Do your best deshou!
(While Mio is involved in 64% of k-on at gelbooru, Tsuaka only is at 25% of lucky_star, mainly because Kagami dominates with over 45%. These would be great Family Feud questions… “In a survey of 100 random fanboys, name their favorite Lucky Star character.” “Mmm… Tsukasa!” “Oh, sorry, that’s only #3 with 25 points.”)
(Anime Family Feud… mmm… “100 random fanboys were asked, ‘Who is your favorite trap?'”)
“It’s no good. You have no sense of embarrassment.”
Agreed. Embarrassment is the BBQ sauce of moe. And the original outfit was a two piece that showed off some Yui belly (and presumably Miolicious tummy). Though every episode that goes by, the more and more I associate Yui with Fuko. Their mannerisms are also so similar. I wouldn’t have been surprised if during the gift exchange someone got a wooden starfish. I also wouldn’t have been surprised if during the recap episode for After Story, Nagisa called out at the end, “Shio-chan, Papa, Yui-chan, let’s get going!”
(That recap has exactly 7 seconds of new footage. Though I liked how the premise of the episode is that Tomoya is recapping everything to Ushio, including, “I was once trapped in a gym storage locker with your teacher, and she was totally in heat.” Is this something you’d really want to tell your 5 year old daughter?)
And we conclude with this week’s installment of Cowering Mio.

whoa now that was quick, like lighting!!! (learning from someone?) i thought you would take days to get the next k-on up!
My favorite episode so far. Instigator Ritsu AND loli Yui?
P.S. None of you would like mio if she were missing her arms. Not even cowering mio. Just sayin’.
scarf sharing (pause for blushing), hand rubbing, getting closer to feel each other’s body heat (pause for more blushing), closer scarf sharing, feeling each other’s warm breath on face (pause for even more blushing), closer scarf sharing, freezing hand in mittens wrapped hands…
.
cold hands and feet, leaning closer to the heat source, quit hogging the blanket let me get underneath too, hands around the waist to feel the warmth, two cold feet in between two warm feet, my knees against your thighs and face against your back, hmm it’s warm…
.
giggedy
“Embarrassment is the BBQ sauce of moe” :D
If that is case, then Mio must had came with the tarter, chipotle southwest, and honey mustard’s sauce of all of the MOEiness by far.
And I need my sauce lol
Ui has a thing for her big sister. That’s the only reason I can think of why she puts up with Yui’s idiot savant antics (this is not a bad thing by itself, mind you).
That, and those occasional tender glances giving it away.
Hmm, I would want to know how Mugi is going to react if she saw the scarf sharing, hand holding and bed sharing.
More seriously, I think Ui is to worried about Yui cooking skill. It was clearly shown in the last episode that Yui have decent cooking skill. She was cooking yakisoba in the school festival.
Ahh, I love Mio…
Best Trap = Jun. Though it may be Maria…
The fact that I know these off the top of my head is really sad. The fact that I bet everyone else reading this comment knows who I’m talking about is probably just as sad, so I won’t tell anyone if you won’t.
Pretty much everything for K-on has been said…so when did Kana let Mako-chan start to crash other people’s parties, and would you kill her for getting close to Mio?
>>>P.S. None of you would like mio if she were missing her arms. Not even cowering mio. Just sayin’.
Katawa Shoujo proved that the abscence of arms may either only increase or disaffect moe levels. Course that would be a different sort of moe, and there would be no more bass paizuri, so hmm…
@K.K. What worries me is that I can easily add Mako-chan, Mizuho, Kanata, Hamaji, Yuki, and Bridget to a list of traps. And of all the ones mentioned, I have seen all but two (one in my list, one in yours) outside of random pictures on the internet (AKA, ive seen the anime/manga for them). Broken I am.
(Also, your also broken if you can name where more then half that list comes from. You reach 4 named and your broken, no question)
.
Really, you cant crown a “Best Trap” can you? It all depends on what your actually ranking as the most important factor. Are you deciding based on how much they look like a girl outside female clothing? Or by how they act? Are you taking external factors into account, like underlying personalities? Or strickly ranking on how they act while crossdressed? Or simply how female they look? If its the last one, you may have trouble beating http://blogsuki.com/archives/2006/11/28/977/

As for the episode, I found it to be interesting, and a fun watch. Of course, the Mio cosrape wasnt nearly enough. But they did give us the Mio Kimono at the end, so that was a nice touch.
.
On of the moments I really liked was when Nodoka was watching Sawa-chan and her thought process just went “What the hell did you do with Sawako-sensei?”. It was a fun moment.
.
Also, I knew some people would be upset when Ritsu mentioned marrying Ui….. See, this is why they should allow human cloning….
.
>> Okay… Santa’s Helper Mio… yet another line item that I need to add to my Christmas list.
Kyoto Animation cheaped out. If they zoomed in a bit more (And did a pan down/up) there would have been more quality in that moment… *sigh*

>> (Anime Family Feud… mmm… “100 random fanboys were asked, ‘Who is your favorite trap?’â€)
Or any other game show….
Anime Who wants to be a Millionare!
“Which of these is not a very important moment in Anime?”
“A. Who the hell do you think I am?”
“B. I am not interested in normal humans.”
“C. Dozo. Have a starfish!”
“D. Miii-kuuu-ruuu-chaaan~~”
Anime Weakest Link…
“Fuko, YOU are the Weakest Link. Goodbye.”
Anime Celebrity Jeopardy…
Yeah, that one could write itself…
Enjoyed your blog post very much. :)
This episode produced some amazing screencaps. I’m surprised you missed some, like Mugi’s expression during Mio’s cosrape or “Do you want to sleep together?”.
Sawa-chan was friggin amazing this episode. Usually the ‘lonely 30 something teacher’ character is just a side show a gimmick gag, in K-on they made her into pure win. She is essentially the Haruhi of this club, and she needs to spend a lot more time with these girls.
Its pretty obvious we won’t to see the Cosrape in full skin until the DVD’s come out. I hate recessions.
Anime Family Feud….holy crap….THAT’S GENIUS!!!
Kyoto Animation cheaped out. If they zoomed in a bit more (And did a pan down/up) there would have been more quality in that moment… *sigh*
They’re obviously holding out for the DVD/Blu-ray version, so we can watch it all in uncensored HD glory…
>>Ui: most reliable imouto since… I dunno.
How could you forget about delicious Yakumo Tsukamoto, Jason?
In fact the Hirasawa sisters’ dynamic reminds me a lot of the Tsukamoto sisters.
@Son Gohan
Yakumo loses serious points for expressing interest with Harima. She needs to step away from that trainwreck of a love dodecahedron, and be her own person.
Ui is the future “teen” version of Kyon’s imouto-chan. I’ll pay to watch the national convention of all adult versions of Mikuru, Kotomi, Haruhi and the whole gang of Clannad and K-on…^^
ciao! ^^
