After the wonderful Summer Fest with her senpais, Azusa is now left alone as the others had to study for their final exams. Ton-chan was temporarily left in her care and with the intense heat, she felt more bored without hanging out with the others. Azusa then went to Yui's house to give them a watermelon. Upon reaching, Ui tells Azusa that she was studying upstairs but sounds of the guitar came out of Yui's room and Azusa knew that it'll become like that if she was left alone. Ui then chops the watermelon into half before bringing it up to her sister. After that, Azusa discovered that the sisters had tempura in the afternoon and went rushing to Yui's rescue as she suspect that eating cold things with tempura could lead to food poisoning. Before she was able to reach Yui, Azusa woke up in her house and it was all a dream. Ui then came by Azusa's house, and couldn't recognise her due to her tan she got from the Summer Fest. Azusa then wanted to hang out with Jun but she was in school for her club activities and Ui suggested to go and find her in school and also bringing some snacks along. No one was there in school however, due to some festival going on and only Sawa-chan was left in the teacher's room when Azusa wanted to borrow the key to the music room and have their snacks there. While thinking about what they should do later on, Ui suggest that they go and watch a movie and off the both went to watch a horror movie. Just as the movie was about to start, Azusa sees Mio coming to watch the horror film as well and even though she herself was repeatedly scared by the different scenes, Mio doesn't seemed to have flinched at all. Suspecting that something wasn't right, Azusa went to look at Mio's condition and discovers that while she was trying to overcome her fear, she had already fainted in the cinema. Azusa had, however, dozed off in the heat in the music room and the movie trip wasn't actually real. Both Ui and Azusa later really went off to catch a movie together and while waiting for the movie to start, Azusa decides to get a part time job and both Ui and her went to help out in some lottery stall. Mugi then came and patronise them , in hope of obtaining a tissue pack which was 50/50. She really did get it and since the last prize was inside, Azusa turned it and won a trip to Finland. Suspecting that it was a dream, she asks them to pull her cheeks which didn't hurt at all. And Azusa had just missed the entire movie by falling asleep. The next day, Jun was free and hanged out with Azusa and Ui, and played on with the "who are you" on Azusa's tanned self. Due to her sunburn, Azusa stayed away from the water while Jun and Ui went in to play and all of the sudden, Azusa sees the other senpais around her, playing with a large slide and eating takoyaki at the same time as sliding down. Ritsu then pushed Azusa into doing it as well and at the end, she nearly collided into the others and woke up from the extreme heat again. On the way home, the trio met the other senpais and they decided to go to the festival together and everyone was brought there to celebrate. When the fireworks started, Yui grabbed on to Azusa's hand and pulls her to the scene and through that, Azusa realised how fun it was to hang out with the senpais and she'll all be left alone after they graduate and that wasn't cheering her up at all. But she was more determined to bring out the best during the school festival. Yui then returned home earlier than Ui and sees leftover tempura on the table. After eating it, she realised that Azusa had tried to tell her that after eating cold things during the festival, it could lead to food poisoning if she ate tempura... which she did.

so after the focus on the entire k-on members, they decided to shed light on the side characters as well, and similarly with the previous season, Azusa was tanned as she hanged out with her buddies. there was kinda too much of daydream there, although i loved Mio's part the most ._. literally fainted in the cinema... it would be great if they left Azusa in her world for 1 or maybe just 2, and this episode just brought in too many of it. this episode mainly focused on Azusa, like the one when the others were in their school trip, but i kinda preferred that episode rather than this. nothing much did actually happen and it merely showed how much Azusa enjoys hanging out with her senpais and the reality that she'd be left alone after they graduate, which will most likely won't be shown in the series unless they do a time leap (which is almost impossible)



and Ookami-san to Shichinin no Nakamatachi has finally begun airing :D

so off the series start with a dude running away from Ryouko (Ookami) and Ringo who both are given the task under Otogi Bank. The guy being chased was however reluctant to turn himself in and attempted to retaliate with a small knife. Ryouko gets Ringo to stay back and prepares to face him with her neko knuckles. With the knife as a potentially dangerous weapon, the guy dropped his knife after getting hit by a stone from afar and taking the chance, Ryouko strikes him in the face, imprinting a neko red print onto it. Otogi Bank is a club which helps students according to their requests, which in turn they have to return the favour some other day. After completing the request, Ryouko and Ringo return to the club room where the other club members are introduced. The president of the club is Kiriki List and the secretary is the president's cousin, Kiriki Alice. Incidentally, there's also a maid, Otsuu-san and the other 2 freshmen are Urashima and Otohime. After club activities, Ryouko would go to the gym to sharpen her fighting skills for more difficult tasks and while returning home, she hears someone calling out to her but when she turns back, there was no one to be seen. Feeling irritated after hearing the same voice over and over, she finally managed to get the culprit out who introduces himself as Ryoushi, her classmate. Ryouko doesn't seem to recognise him but still asked him to repeat what he had said and Ryoushi confesses that he likes her and tells her that he likes her as she's strong, cool and brave which she does not seem to want guys to like her that way and left before Ryoushi could finish. Back in the dorms, Ringo was surprised and all pumped-up after hearing that Ryouko was confessed to and would like to see if he's suitable for her. The next day, Ryoushi's information was gathered and it was said that he prefers to stay away from people's sight and feels insecure when people stare at him as he has learnt the skills of hunting in the wild and his tailing skills might be useful for the club and thus, Ringo brought him to the Otogi Bank. Ringo further told the rest that although he does not like attention, he had already confessed to Ryouko which he then adds on that he's been tailing her for a week, in hope of finding the right time to confess to her. Everyone seems to have agreed in letting him join but Ryouko does not accept it as she knows that he was around when she was attacked by a knife and he did not bothered to come out of hiding at all. However, a new cilent gave way for Ryoushi to show his abilities and hopefully Ryouko would accept him. The new cilent was Haibara Kakari and she wants to request to stop her senpai, which she admires, from handing in his club resignation form as he was injured and unable to continue playing tennis. This time, Ryoushi's skills in tailing came in handy and amazingly managed to stalk Ooji, the target of the request. However, Ryoushi seems to have acted too suspiciously in the public bath, in hope of obtaining the resignation form but failed to get it. As the form would need approval from the club president, a teacher and a club head, there were many chances to intercept the form but as Ryoushi was afraid to be looked at, he failed to get it and Ooji was already approaching to hand in him completed form. With time running out, a new member of the Otogi Bank was introduced, Majo-san, who invents things to help the club and the neko knuckles that Ryouko uses are from her as well. So the tool to be used was a pumpkin carriage, similar to Cinderella. Ryoushi stood out and became the one to paddle it and told Kakari that its better to tell someone you like directly and off he goes, blindfolded, to avoid his symptoms. When Ooji was already in sight, Ryoushi then discovered that the carriage didn't have brakes installed and crashed. Kakari was flinged forward but with her skills, she tried absorbing the impact with somersaults and incidentally kicked Ooji directly in his face and the both of them fainted on the spot with List taking away the resignation form and thus, completing the request. After a busy day, Ryouko and Ringo were met with the same guy who attacked Ryouko with a knife and was back with two of his friends. With the neko knuckles equipped, she takes on the three of them but when the guy saw an opening and swinged down the metal pole, Ryoushi came to Ryouko's rescue and became her temporary shield. Ryouko then quickly take down the remaining two and went o Ryoushi's aid. He tells her that he had initially wanted to save her but froze up and could only become her shield. With that, Ryouko seems some qualities in him and formally accepts him into the Otogi Bank to work with her.

judging about the characters in this series, they are mostly made up of familiar seiyuus and the most prominent one was the narrator for the series .__. dear Kuroko, heres not Academy City!!! oh well, didn't really like the narrator, (not with the voice), but having a narrator that attempt to be funny but don't really work does not really interest me, feels like the series is spoiled by it. it'll be OK if its just a few lines but appearing here and there isn't really entertaining... ignoring that, the series headed off with a good start ad judging by the OP (by May'N), there seems to be some "boss" or something... and Ryoushi would get a slingshot weapon? O.o looks quite like Hand Sonic vers. 5 catapult vers :D hopefully it doesn't bring the series to another light. it would be interesting to see how the relationship between Ryouko and Ryoushi would develop and i LOVE the neko knuckles! so kawaii~! xD
