How does Touko to get her hair to curl without a curler?

I thought Qingyan doesn't like her sister all that much, but they seem just fine during the photoshoot.

Also, what is going on? They followed Qingyan's first suggestion, so why was Qingyan unhappy about it? And what does her hand gesture mean?

Also, does Qingyan wear a glove or something? It's all a bit odd.

The end already? Aw, shucks. Well, at least it's cute.

Silly Hinami. Doesn't she realize that love is a battlefield?

Septembet? When's that?

Well, there's another pizza heading straight for Hawaii.

But ... but ... praying mantises are so cute! Not quite as cute as jumping spiders, but still...

I think the JRA might have some objections to this...

Man, Japan has ferris wheels in the weirdest locations.

Stalking? I am doing this for science!

It's over already? But .. but ... what about Ozaki's past?

So Tsukino has a guardian angel. A very misguided guardian angel, sure, but she's doing her best!

I'm not sure what I was expecting from this but a straight shot for shot/word for word adaptation of a scene from the anime was not one of them.

The part where Chisato gets Kurumi to wear the uniform is not in the anime, and the artist clearly wanted to show how this could have happened.

Lazy? Maybe a bit, but not terribly so.

Hmm. Nope. Sorry. Don't care one iota about guitar girl. Can we get back to the dating couple already?

So if they both stop in showbiz and are still single then they should be together.

Sorry, but that's just nonsense. If you feel so much for each other, then why not just get together now? Their fans obviously wouldn't mind, but even if they would, so what?

Ah, Yuyushiki. Too bad there never was a second season...

Man, the very early 2000s were sure a weird time in Japanese subculture when you really think about it. Must have been something in the water.

It's what you get when you don't eat clean coal.

This is turning into quite battle of seductresses.

Hinami has connections to Shadows House, confirmed!

Ah, Strawberry Panic, like Marimite but with actual lesbians.

And with narm. So much narm!

I hope it was beautiful, clean coal.

Vegetables are bad for ya, mmmkay....

And for their beach date they of course go to Enoshima!

Man, I miss Japan.

How can you tell that's Enoshima?

There's the telltale Enoden train, with the tracks and road along the coastline, and the island shown is clearly Enoshima with the Sea Candle on it, plus you can see the Benten bridge leading up to it.

Well, technically they're on Katase Higashihama beach (which is featured a lot in manga and anime), but I'd say it's close enough to Enoshima to count.

And for their beach date they of course go to Enoshima!

Man, I miss Japan.

I, for one, love Hinami's tracker. It tickles me every time I sneeze.
