This is the kind of simple romance plot that I love in anime! It's almost the complete opposite of the previous volume, so I guess there's a nice rhythm to the series. The first episode involves everyone going to the beach - Hideki, Chi, all of his girl pals (which is a little strange), his next door neighbor Shinbo, plus his rich genius pal who dresses all his persocoms in skimpy maid uniforms. It's a glorious episode where everyone just plays around and has fun! The next two episodes involve his prep-school teacher, first when she invites herself to stay over (and gets smashed on beer), and next when we discover her marital problems (because her husband is hooked on his persocom) - it gets pretty serious, but seems happy at the end. The last episode is so mushy - I love it! Hideki loses his wallet, and since he won't take Chi's paycheck, she learns to cook and makes him a great meal. Chi is so cute because she wants to make Hideki happy so badly, and when she smiles because he likes the meal, it's meltdown time for Mikey. These episodes are also fun because Sumomo (the tiny portable persocom) is with them, and she's hilarious! I wish I had someone to lead me in the "wakey exercise"!Labels: anime, dvds
