Azumanga Daioh Vol 3 : 3 of 5

This great series continues to be fun to watch - it's like a breath of fresh air sometimes! The simple lives of these high school girls are cute and heartwarming, and in this volume, they start their second year. There's a new girl in class (who we met at last year's sports festival), and she's determined to be a rival for Sakaki (and tries to compete with her on the goofiest things!). Speaking of Sakaki, there's plenty more about her and her cat obsession, plus a whole episode devoted to Chiyo-chan, following her during an entire day, from waking up until bedtime. It seems like some things will happen year after year, such as the summer trip to Chiyo-chan's beach house, and during this trip, one of their teachers gets pretty drunk and ends up talking about adult subjects with the girls! There's a pretty funny joke in one episode about "Blue 3" (Bruce Lee), spoken by Osaka, of course (she's the spaced out girl!). This show is silly, cute, and touching at the same time - I'm really looking forward to the next action-packed volume (that's a little joke!). I still haven't figured out what the theme song is about - it's called Fancy Hearing Cake, and has lines like "Everyday the fluffy temptation of wheat!" Who cares? It's fun to sing!
