「強調部位ブイブイブイ, 萌えテイル, 画期的ズルむけ」 (Kyouchoubui Buibuibui, Moe Teiru, Kakkiteki Zuru Muke)
“Emphasis on VVV, Moe Tail, Groundbreaking Skin Peeling”

Fourth week in and I finally feel that vibe that season one left with me. With a decent variety of jokes that ranged from casual to dirty, there was a little bit of everything to hold you over. And while I could have done without some of the mini-skits, I’ll admit that a few of them were really funny.

Sharing is caring.

I didn’t think it would happen but I absolutely love Uomi’s character. Switching from complete deadpan humor to seamlessly following along with Shino’s gags, I can’t imagine a more perfect character to help accentuate the dynamics of our loveable student council. But her biggest asset might be the way she plays around with our two straightmen — Tsuda and Suzu. Unlike our President or Secretary who have their mind stuck in the gutter, I love how she manages to go outside the box and push their buttons in all the right ways. (My favorite probably being her reverse joke with Suzu’s height. Because who doesn’t like a good short joke?)

Shino and Aria — who’s your favorite?

Unlike the past few episodes, this week’s did a fantastic job at shining the spotlight on our two favorite upperclassmen. Highlighting their quirks in the best way possible, I was surprised after I realized just how underused they were throughout the past few weeks! Be it Aria’s airheaded nature that knows just when to snap back into reality or Shino trying to find a new pillow to help her sleep better, I’m just glad the two got some more well deserved screen time.

Side Characters that actually do something.

Unlike a lot of other comedy shows that let their side characters fade into the darkness until it’s their turn to suddenly appear at the butt end of a joke, I’m really starting to enjoy all these mini-skits that highlight characters we normally wouldn’t see or only hear one or two lines from. While I could do without Nene’s (or even Aria’s), I’m not sure how I lived this long without fully experiencing the awkwardness of Tsuda and his dry squid problems.

More and More, Keep Going, Don’t Stop, Please!

With another week down, I can honestly say I’m a lot more pleased with what GoHands has given us, especially compared to how I felt after the first two. While I’m still holding out for an episode that is so off the charts that it might actually turn away viewers, I’m still really enjoying the pace we’re going at. Until next week!

Random Thoughts

  • Sharing your porn is caring! Back in high school there were a group of guys who had this mystical “hard drive of porn” that apparently was stolen.
  • Nopan Aria? Bloomers Aria? MAKE UP YOUR MIND.
  • If this empty amusement park didn’t surprise you, did I tell you I may or may not be naked?
  • I don’t know why they went so far out of their way to point out that there wasn’t any underage drinking going on. Might as well have not used those kind of glasses in the first place!
  • I don’t know why Aria or Shino thought they could beat Suzu at math. haha.
  • Did you find the one full length image? c:

  1. @Takaii: “Side Characters that actually do something.”

    It’s not only that, but that the “side” characters are good. They are distinct enough not to be overshadowed by the main characters. Rather than “joke props” for the main characters, they stand out in their own right. Uomi is a favorite of mine as well as Mutsumi (“sooo pure” LOL). Toki is a great “straight man” for Kotomi. The characters along with all the jokes are a big reason I like the series so much.

    1. Agreed…..

      Uomi’s deadpan face and peversion just makes her lovable….

      Mitsuba….. She’s the pure untainted white rose among the tainted ones…. I can’t help but having that saviour complex with girls like her….

      Toki…. The straightman alongside suzu, tsuda and that other girl

      Nene… Peverse as she is, i dont mind being around a hot megane like her in real life

      1. RE: Mitsuba: She’s a 2nd degree black belt in Judo so she might end up saving you. There’s a pretty funny skit in season one with her and Tsuda centering around that.

        In addition to your list, I like Kotomi and the Discipline Committee girl as well. The former is a great baka pervert in training (“Cowgirl!” LOL), and the latter I provides some truly (IMO) funny moments with her fear of boys (“Safe!” LOL).

  2. Oh God, poor Tsuda. That squid has gotten quite over the top since its first appearance in the OVA’s. Next time he has to deal with Hagimura, can’t wait.

    I actually thought Nene’s part was pretty interesting as well, never thought I’d learn dildo trivia from an anime. It’s theorized dildo’s were around since the stone age, eh? Let’s hope I never dig one up, I’d hate to have that be the highlight of my career. Imagine writing a paper on it.

    And true, part of what keeps this show interesting after all this time is definitely the entire cast. All the side characters have their own roles to play and jokes to make, and pop up often enough in other people’s skits to keep them in focus. Uomi is definitely a highlight among the newer characters, as she plays of the others really well.

    Onwards to the next ep!
