Can it be true? Kanako episode?! Yes it is. We got a glimpse of just how magical she looks with glasses on from the first episode this season, but not magical to this extent. The power of glasses triumphs over all I suppose. It’s just hilarious how everyone was trying to get her to wear them through such rash methods. You can tell how flexible Kanako is when she’s kicking her leg up while still holding the cups on top of her two hands and also the stack of other cups on her head. She can be part of the circus. Although… either way she’d still be a laughingstock.

Following the Adventures of Combat Waitress Kanako, the gang solves  the mystery of the legendary “Storm Noodles” which happened to be store-bought noodles. No doubt I usually find these noodles addicting to eat, despite them not being real real noodles, which sometimes doesn’t have that same flavor, you could say, similar to Arashi’s tastes. For an episode on noodle-tasting, it sure was amusing, unlike a certain Ramen-gan and cooking ninja episodic failure of an episode.

Master and her special teacup set proved to be actually one of the brilliant workings of time paradoxes. At this point I kinda went with the flow instead of trying to understand it, but I think this really worked well and showed that tinkering with the past is a lot more deeper than it should be. You get this when Master explains that she told Yayoi to keep the teacup in the cupboard, yet Yayoi doesn’t recall this until the gang takes a trip back and other plates/cups get destroyed. I also forgot that taking a trip back in time more than once means seeing your time-traveling selves as well, so that’s a lot of fuck to think about. I’m not exactly sure how the teacup ended up where it was in the end, but I don’t wanna think through it again. What I wanna know is how Yayoi is able to connect with Master. Seems she’s open to anyone. Dogs and drunken women.

Episode 8 was somewhat strange of an episode, which isn’t saying much, but it’s a lot more different than the usual plights and playing arounds. Air conditioning is a serious business, and if you can’t get Arashi cool, we’re all doomed. Cool in the summertime? I must’ve missed this, but Kaja is a lot more humorous than I thought with those stupid puns of hers. I wonder why Master has a pile of useless remotes anyway. A remote that opens the fridge for you? How about a remote that brings the food over to you? Hakobune seems to be always full of mystery. Should’ve known it was secretly a mecha.
