 This show is like magic - it can cure any mood, make me laugh, and feel happy to be alive and living like a kid! The animation is simple, yet so cute, and the Japanese voice work is just priceless. In this volume, the girls continue with their second year of school, so we get to see the many of the activities we saw in the prior year, such as the sports festival and the culture festival. I loved seeing Kaorin, the supporting character who has a crush on Sakaki, get to compete with her in the three-legged race - she was so happy she could explode! The girls decided to do another "cute animal" theme this year for culture fest, so they had a little cafe where they wore kitty hats, and little Chiyo-chan dressed up as a penguin (so now I have a direct reference to one of the skits I saw at A-Kon!). It was really cool to see some stories about Yomi, since they haven't really focused on her before. She is constantly watching her weight and trying diets, even though she seems to have it together. In one episode she gets a fever, so she has to stay home while the rest of the gang goes to an amusement park - taihen! There's also a story about the teachers - I love watching them get drunk and talk about life together. I'm definitely considering owning this set, since I could watch them all again!
