Hidamari Sketch ×☆☆☆ #03 — Growing Up

January 21st, 2010

 

Remember… 2-A.

In unrelated news, Juuden’s 2nd special came out, but since it consists of nothing but all the alternate word characters showing up in cosplay and then being tentacle raped, I think I’ll pass on making a real post. Finish making your damn show already.

Impressions:

A pretty good episode although the middle part with Yuno rearranging her room felt like they took four panels and then stretched them out over five minutes. At least Yuno faceplanting into a wall is a good joke, but that entire segment could have been condensed to about 20 seconds to give Yoshinoya more time to flounce around. It’s hard to be unhappy with any episode that involves Yoshinoya taking her top off… or copious amounts of her midriff. I’ve got to say that her outfit wasn’t really doing it for me though. It looks like it belongs on a two year old. The newbies were also pretty minimal this episode, which helped I think, because they have yet to show any kind of entertaining personalities to me thus far. We could have used more Hiro… but that’s always true.

Anyway, the first half was mostly about the first day back at school; Yoshinoya’s assorted antics, Yuno and Miyako wandering to their old class by mistake, etc. Yuno’s quest of discovery of espresso dominated most of the last third, as well as crushing random cats under her butt. Not the most entertaining segment that this show has ever offered, but decent enough. Most amazingly, I don’t think anybody actually ate anything this entire episode. I think that might be a first for this show.

And this is what my commentary is reduced to.

Oh yeah, they finally gave it a real OP too.

Preview:

Stop tentacling Nazuna.

    Ah, they’ve adapted that chapter of the manga! Sweet – the 2D, 3D, and ‘information’ electives. ;) Love how Yoshinoya-sensei first busts out there before the introductions and then advises people to ‘touch them when they’ve decided what they want’. Between that and the attempted stripping…

    Although they did end up jumping back to Volume 3 with Sae wondering what she was going to do in the future, and I feel it’d have been a better fit with the Arisawa-senpai bit in Volume 4.

    Also, Yoshinoya-sensei in that outfit making a heart with her hands is best.

    Isn’t 2-A the same sign on Mio Akiyama’s shirt, from K-ON?
