| Musume Dokyu! Vol 4 : 3 of 5 | |

 After watching this DVD, I'm caught up with the current Musume Dokyu! releases (at least until Volumes 5 and 6 are released in a few days), and I'm still enjoying the show. I think Volume 4 was just a little better than Volume 3, mainly because a few of the episodes featured things a little more unexpected than just the girls cooking and eating (although there's a little of that this time around as well). First, Koharu works some problems with an abacus (and she's really fast with it), then plays with some other toys and shoots some darts (into the wall). This was my first time to really see Koharu chat with the camera, and she's amazingly relaxed and natural when she's telling a story, but slightly crazy when she's pushing the cute into overdrive. Next, Mikitty has to handle a pet monkey for her entire segment, where she chats with an English teacher and illustrates a story. Miki always seems kind of elegant to me, but when she says a sentence in English, it's shocking how she suddenly seems like any other 20-something girl (I guess my love of Japanese has a transforming power). Finally we get out of the house (so to speak) with Reina as she takes on several different amusement park rides. She definitely plays it cool at first, saying it's no big deal, and then totally freaks out with fear! Next, Mako-chan cooks up some pumpkin stew in an outdoor setting, and finally Yossie gets the embarrassing challenge of dressing up in the frilliest, girliest outfit imaginable (complete with giant teddy bear), which is pretty hilarious considering her cool, boyish style. I'm looking forward to the next DVDs in this series!
