Anime Review: Inu x Boku SS Episode 9


This episode opens with Ririchou and Soushi talking under the Cherry Tree.

It's finally the day of the big coffee meeting and Ririchou has been nervous the whole day.  School hasn't been a good distraction because she is still daydreaming about coffee, bedrooms and awkwardness between her and Soushi.  After school she goes shopping with Karuta and they sample food and tea which is delicious.  Then we see Ririchou cleaning her room (with cheesy shots of her butt) and finds out there is still four hours left.  Then she gets a call from Karuta to come out and study with her and Watanuki.

Everything was going great until Watanuki gets worked up and then challenges Ririchou on their next test he will beat her.  Then Bunny Boy announces a partner match to settle it once and for all.  First there was a guessing game of what's in the box?

Then it's the second round with questions the partners have to answer to test the bonds between them.  Ririchou is nervous because she doesn't know anything about Soushi.  All the other teams pass with flying colors and then it's Soushi's turn.  His question was if Ririchou is a cat or dog person?  He answers then he goes overboard with his devotion to Ririchou and then proceeds to let every secret he knows about her.  The game ended before it was Ririchou's turn because of Soushi's devotion to her.

Then everyone proceeds back to the dining room where Watanuki finds a pop-quiz on the table.  Everyone finds the out the winner gets a Blu-Ray player they all want to play.  The drawings they came up to show how Tokyo looked like were hilarious especially the potato bug.

When all of a sudden the light goes out and then guess who has come back - Kagerou who calls everyone his human toilets.  Then the anime ends!

Anime Review: Inu x Boku SS Episode 8


This episode opens with Ririchou making coffee and thinking about how invite Soushi for coffee.

The we see Soushi has finished cleaning Ririchou's shoe outside the school gates while everyone is staring at them. Soushi insists on waiting for Ririchou after she’s done with school while keeping an eye on her 24/7.  Ririchou wants to be in her classroom on time but then Soushi saves her from an accidental flying baseball.

The we see Watanuki behaving like a true "delinquent" (by helping a girl pick up her handkerchief she dropped, giving back the extra 10 yen the canteen vendor accidentally gave him and raising up his hand first to answer a teacher’s question during Math class) and Karuta’s appetite are shown to pass the time during school hours.

Ririchiyo is still trying to figure out how to repay Soushi for his selfless acts after her own unsuccessful attempts.  Then school is over and Soushi’s on time to pick his Ririchou but he has no idea what to do and where to go as he asked Ririchiyo before she goes to her classes.

Then Ririchiyo thinks back about a conversation during lunchtime and the three youkais meet on the rooftop to have lunch together while complimenting each others bentos about how they look and smell delicious. Ririchou denies enjoying lunch with two strange people and while in bed later on keeps thinking of Soushi’s behavior in her enjoying the company of others and wanting to know more of his SS.

Then it's the next day and Ririchiyo, Watanuki and Karuta have lunch together again with Ririchiyo organizing it. Karuta comments on how food tastes better and having friendships with others.  Ririchiyo replies back that people let their guard down as they eat. Which gives Ririchiyo an idea reward Soushi. Bingo.


After a successfully making the best cup of coffee for Soushi we see Ririchiyo sitting in front of her desk and thinking of best scenarios to lure Soushi into letting him try her cup of coffee. All the scenarios Ririchichou comes up with results in how either her or Soushi would react and then spents the entire night trying to come up with a solution. Ririchou has no plans and then we see her meeting Soushi and attempting to ask him to have a cup of coffee with her. Instead she tells Soushi to bring her a bowl of corn potage soup.

Attempt #1: EPIC FAIL. Once Ririchou gets her soup attempts to again inform Soushi of drinking her coffee. Karuta interrupts at that moment and asks Ririchou to have a slice of her fruit and then see everyone else in the cafeteria doing the same.  It becomes quite noisy and Ririchou can’t have a private moment with Soushi.

Attempt #2: Ends in failure due to a minor interruption. Outside the school gates, Ririchiyo tries once again but Karuta pulls her to school so that they won’t be late for class.

Attempt #3: Karuta manages to interrupt!

Ririchiyo decides and plans to finally get Soushi try her coffee.

Meanwhile at the mansion Ririchou witnesses the interaction between Nobara, Renshou and Watanuki and Natsume and realizes there is no such intimacy between Soushi and her. Then we see her returning to her room and she sees a tree we have seen before which is the spot where Ririchiyo and Soushi began their relationship between master and servant.

Ririchou asked Soushi to meet her under the tree while he comments on Ririchou’s strange behavior as of late and asks her if he’s not doing anything up to her standards. Ririchou tells him he’s been doing fine and is relieved that he still cares about her.  Then Soushi mentions all the unusual things she has done over the past few days (wearing the left shoe first instead of the right shoe like she always does, putting sugar on her coffee instead of the cream first and having lunch after sending Watanuki to the hell and back).

Ririchou wants Soushi to have the same standing as she has, not wanting him to keep anymore secrets from her and to be the mysterious masked hero who saves her. He admits that he like Ririchou, he has problems communicating to others normally which draws them both closer.   Then Ririchou invites her Soushi to taste her coffee she’d made herself. He accepts and it looks like Ririchou has been trying to help Soushi to up to the rest of the mansion residents.

Anime Review: Inu x Boku SS Episode 7


This episode opens with Ririchou and Soushi together in her room.  Then we learn why they are stuck there.

Then we see Nobaru, Renshou and the girl maid talking with a plant in her hand.  Nobaru is off in her fantasy land saying, that the maid looks so cute in her maid outfit while drooling (she's so funny when she does this).  All of a sudden the hall becomes dark and we see purple gobs coming from the ceiling and from the plant.  Nobaru grabs the maid and they start running to the dinner room with Renshou behind them.  They make it to the dining room and lock the door before the purple monster can get them.  It starts to bang on the door and the maid asks will it be able to get through?  Nobaru replies, "no because there is a strong force field protecting them and points to a rotating orange cube on the ceiling.  She says that as long as they keep the door closed it will be fine.  Then he hands her some stuff to take a bath and she asks him where he found it.  He replies over there.  They make a phone call to the rest and find out everyone is safe.

Meanwhile upstairs in the hallway Ririchou and Soushi are talking and she senses something and the mansion goes all dark.  Soushi senses it too and rushes Ririchou into her room before any of the purple gobs get them.  She asks Soushi if it's very dangerous and he replies, very.  Then he makes her dinner and then some tea.  She's trying to let him know she's grateful for all the stuff he does for her.  Then she drinks her tea and they start chatting.

Then we see Watanuki in his Tanuki form and Natsume in their room talking.  Watanuki says he wants to protect Karuta and is about to head off when Natsume says that she is under another force field. We see Watanuki trying to open the door when Natsume starts sprouting his logic again and tells Watanuki that he needs to run down the long hallway to get better in saving Karuta.  Watanuki believes him and starts running for a long time.

We also see Karuta making soup when her stomach makes those hungry noises.  She looks over at her counter and we see a big shrimp on a plate and other food items.  Then all of a sudden we see a whole table full of food and Karuta starts eating.

Then we see Naburu, Renshou and the maid again in the dining room.  Renshou is in a futon under the stairs and both Natsume and Renshou ask him where he find it.  He said over in the corner and then goes to sleep.  He wakes up when he hears the girls talking/yelling and we see them in the middle of the room.  The maid is yelling and it looks like she is bending over (I thought they were doing something naughty - but they weren't) and we see they are playing chess.

Then we see Watanuki and Natsume in their room again.  Natsume is reading a magazine while Watanuki is still running and finally stops.  He says that he feels stronger and Natsume starts laughing and said you really believed me?  I only said that to distract you from Karuta and then we see Watanuki fall from the ceiling onto the floor.  When all of a sudden we see a door outlined on the ground and they realize the force field is weaker.  The purple gob manages to knock down the door and come in.  Oh No!

During this time Ririchou has finished taking her bath and is getting ready to go to sleep.  Soushi tells her I will over there and call if you need anything.  Ririchou lies down and tries to think how to tell Soushi how grateful she is.  She looks over and sees his silhouette and wonders what he is doing (she thinks he's naked).  It looks like he is looking at her so she goes over and looks through the sheets (he's making tea).  She goes back to the bed and starts talking to him again.  When both of them realize something is coming through the door.  They both change into their other form and burst out the door and start assimilating the purple gob.

Karuta is still eating when she realizes that Watanuki is in trouble so she grabs the shrimp and jumps out the window.  Then we see her eating the shrimp and in the hallway and finally in Watanuki's room.  She manages to kill the purple job lightening fast.

Then the whole gang is reunited and they ask everyone if they are okay?  Everyone says, yes and then they all head back to their rooms.  The End!

Anime Review: Inu x Boku SS Episode 6


This episode opens with Ririchou in chemistry class when we see Karuta roasting dried seaweed over her alcohol lamp.  Then we see her with a dog at her desk, then she's staring off into space and then finally she ran away from gym class.  Ririchou thinks she should be more worried about Karuta then herself.

Karuto finally arrives back to math class in her gym clothes and people are talking about her.  Watanuki is getting upset and he finally starts yelling hey!  I'm twice as bad why aren't you ... and the teacher says shut up Watanuki!"  Then we see Karuta with food on her desk and she starts praying when the clock strikes 12:30 pm.  Watanuki stands up and grabs his lunch and walks up to Karuta's desk saying "I'm leaving now" and Karuta nods.

Then we see Ririchou buying lunch when she see's Karuta dumping her coin purse with nothing in it.  You can hear her stomach making noises.  Ririchou walks over and says "you don't have anymore money, you shouldn't have eaten lunch so early!"  She reaches into her lunch bag and grabs a red bean bun and gives it to Karuta and says "I also have some soy milk".  Karuta hugs Ririchou and says "I love you!"  You're nice I thought so ever since I've meant you.  Ririchou is shocked and says to herself she said I love you!"  She says "stop lying!  You're just saying that because I gave you some food".  Karuta says, "no, my sixth sense said so".  Ririchou replies back, "yeah right..."  Karuta says "Or maybe my five senses?"  Ririchou says, "you're just making this up as you go along".  Karuta says "Well..."  Ririchou thinks back when Natsume was telling her she should interact more" but she doesn't know how to at this moment.

Then Ririchou is at her locker after school when she hears some girls talking about rabbits ears.  She goes outside to investigate and sees Natsume talking to some girls.  He yells out to Ririchou, "hey Chiyo I didn't see you this morning.  One of the girls asks "you know her?"  Then he whispers to the girl on his left that he can't reveal his relationship to Ririchou.  One of the girls replies back, "that sounds shady!"  Ririchou asks him, "what is he doing?" Then Natsume says "what do you mean? All I ever try to do is enjoy life".  Ririchou walks away saying "goodbye".  Natsume says, "wait for me Chiyo".  Then he starts talking about lace and how much he loves it.  Ririchou asks him, what does he want?"  Natsume says that Watanuki got into a fight and if she could direct him to the nurse's office?"  She yells back, "why did you ask me that first!"

Then we see Watanuki with a bandage on his face in the nurse's office.  Natsume starts talking and Watanuki says a delinquent's bruises is his medals".  Ririchou asks what happens but Watanuki doesn't want to talk.  Then Natsume asks Ririchou did she know when Watanuki stop wearing tighty-whities?"  Natusme says not  out not that long ago and Watanuki yells I will tell you!"  He says they were talking about Karuta but he says that she might walk around in her own little world but she's aware of her surroundings!"  He refers her to Tarzan when Karuta opens the curtains.  Natsume and Ririchou leave the room.

Then we see Watanuki and Karuta talking and then go home.  Along the way they buy ice-cream while Natsume is explaining to Ririchou that Watanuki and Karuta have known each other since childhood.  Then he starts explaining about the history of what they are.

I'm going to head off to bed so I will update later on today/tonight, goodnight!

Then Shoukiin starts giving everyone gifts but Nobaru doesn't like him and turns into her other form and tries to freeze him (that was funny).  Then he takes Ririchou, Soushi, Watanuki and Natsume for a trip around the mansion explaining who is a masochist and who is a sadist (some more funny scenes).  Then they arrive at the front of the mansion and Ririchou said that isn't the only reason why he came to the mansion.  He said he wanted to tell her something but it's kind of late and he didn't want to miss his plane.  Then he called them his sex toys and will tell them when he comes back.  He gets into his car and drives away.  End credits come on (hahaha that was  hilarious and so was the song).

Anime Review: Inu x Boku SS Episode 4




This episode opens with two new characters one named Watanuki practising his kung-fu skills while a red haired guy with bunny ears is telling him to take it easy.  Watanuki tells him to shut up and that he needs to sharpen his skills because he's not that good right now and he will beat a certain person.  The bunny guy starts sprouting what a nice day it is and it makes him want to go out and do something.  Watanuki is yelling in the background saying "you always do this."


Then we see Ririchou and Soushi saying good morning to each other.  Ririchou is thinking about last night when she made the contract with Soushi again to be her SS agent and she is embarrassed.  Soushi says he is so happy when she made the contract with him and he can be at her side again.  He also says it brings so much sorrow when he takes her to school.  It's like divine punishment and she replies back it's just not school but anywhere she goes.  He replies back you're right and it makes him more sadder.  Then he asks her if he could hold her hand all the way and she replies sure.  They start walking.

Then it's nighttime and we see Ririchou in the swimming pool and thinking about how her heart rate has been irregular since this morning.  Then she walks to the where the vending machines are and she looks at her phone.  She has a message from Soushi thanking her for sending him her kind messages.  She thinks about her heart rate again and she needs to take care of her health.

Then she looks towards the vending machines and see Watanuki getting a drink.  They look at each other and then he comes over and asks her what she is looking at.  She replies back that he was looking at her first and he replies stop staring at me.  Then she replies back you first and then they have a staring contest until both their eyes hurt.  Then he turns around and says you're that fox spirits partner aren't you?  You're attitude stinks!  She says "huh".  Then he starts introducing himself as Banri Watanuki, Room #1 and I'm a "delinquent"!  Ririchou replies back you say that like you are proud of it and then she introduces herself as Ririchou Shirakin Room #4.  Then he says another someone who won't take me seriously because .... I'm a tiny tanuki and changes into a racoon?  Ririchou says you transformed for me that is kind of you.  He says shut up and I only transformed because I'm unstable".  What of it?  Just because I look like this doesn't mean I can't hurt you!  What are you doing?  I'm going to feed you a knuckle, etc.

Then bunny guy grabs Watanuki and says that's no way to speak to a lady.  Then he says hello to Ririchou and says it's so nice to meet you!  Then he introduces himself as Zange Natsume I'm Watanuki's Secret Service Agent.  Then he shows some pictures of himself when he was younger and starts explaining his childhood, etc.  He also mentions he sees things he doesn't want to know and then he mentions he knows stuff about Ririchou about her past and future.  He also says he knows what is causing her irregular heartbeats.  Then he says if you win tomorrows match he would explain everything.

Watanuki says he's come back to challenge that fox spirit and Zange grabs him again and tosses him over his shoulder while calling him Rascal.  Watanuki says he's name isn't Rascal and they leave.

Then it's morning and Soushi is saying good morning to Ririchou and complimenting her again.  She replies they don't have time for that and asks about the match.  Soushi says what match and then we hear Zange saying Sou baby.  Zange comes running and starts hugging Soushi and saying how happy he is to see him.  He also greets Ririchou and she says you know each other.  Zange says they are childhood friends and Soushi greets Zange and bows to him.

We see Nobaru in the background reading a magazine and she says two guys how gross.  Renshou is also there and he says different strokes for different folks while staring at the cover of her magazine.

Then Soushi explains that Natsume was his old master's friend and he treated him so kindly.  Natsume asks Soushi to do him.  Then we see Watanuki and he says stop consorting with the enemy.  It's been awhile nine-tailed fox.  This meeting means your end nemesis and then Soushi bows to him and says it's been awhile.  Natsume says he's also a childhood friend but Watanuki says no we're not friends you just bullied me but that was fine.  Then we find out why Watanuki is so mad at Soushi just because he called him cute.  Watanuki says that was when his reputation was tarnished.  Soushi apologizes but Watanuki says it's too late.  Natsume interrupts and explains the rules of the match.  Whoever gathers the most signatures and returns back is the winner.

Then Ririchou and Soushi have a conversation that she is already involved.  Nobaru then says she would be Soushi's ally but in exchange could she slip a finger under her knee highs and feel her thigh.  Ririchou agrees to let her do that if she does it a little.  Nobaru gets a major nose bleed and says she will sign anything she wants.

Then we see a bartender and he says his name is Joe and he's a wolf in a bar with a kid.  The kid says this isn't a bar dad.  Ririchou asks for a signature and he asks is it dangerous he could handle it.  Then he tells her to come back when she grows up and he would make her a drink.  The kid tells his dad to please grate the radishes.

Then we see Ririchou and Soushi saying they got his signature.  Then they almost step onto a maid that transforms into a small person.  They get her signature then we see Maid #2 who is a guy in disguise and says he won't sign because he thinks they are suspicious but Soushi charms him.  They meet Maid #3 another guy in disguise who has mask on.  Then we meet the Concierge and Ririchou thought he should trade places with Soushi.  The Concierge guys rams his face into a mirror and Soushi explains he's an introverted person and they say he's a very shy person.  Then Ririchou says Roromiya is the last signature to get.  They go in search for her when they reach the ladies only room.  Ririchou goes in and sees two of the girls taking a bath and she gets embarrassed.  She leaves and sees Roromiya outside and is about to get her signature when she sees Watanuki.

Then we hear and see Natsume calling Soushi and saying he's so manly.  Then he says they should be quiet because he would be embarrassed to see them spying on him.  Watanuki asks Roromiya to sign and she says okay.  Natsumi explains that he asked Karuta to wait there.  Watanuki thanks her and she says he was gone so long and she was worried.  He says he's sorry and he brought her a present - maple bean cakes from Hiroshima.  Then Natsume explains that Watanuki was worried about talking to Karuta and that he was training to protect the girl he loves.  Ririchou says that is the reason for the match.

Natsume says that's not the only reason and he walks over and starts whispering into her ear.  He said I can see all of you and you should interact with more people.  You said until I can properly interact with other people. But that's a skill that can only be learned by hurting and being hurt by others.  Then he says he's everyone's older brother and he wants to be closer to Soushi.

Then Ririchou and Soushi are in the elevator having a conversation and he reveals that he is jealous and wants to know what Natsume and her were talking about.  He takes her hand and kisses it but she says too close and runs backwards.  She falls and then we see her in her bedroom. She looks in the dictionary to find out what causes irregular heartbeats.

We see her about to have breakfast when Soushi comes over and says "there you are" while kneeling.  He thanks her for the message she sent last night.  Then he starts sparkling again and informing Ririchou that he has saved her message onto a USB and printed it out, etc. (I was laughing at this point).

Then it's end of the day when Ririchou walks out of the school grounds towards the entrance.  She sees Renshou and Nobaru spying on Soushi and a girl talking and kissing.  Ririchou seems jealous when Soushi sees them.  He explains that she would stop bothering him if he let her kiss him.

Ririchou and Soushi are in the elevator at the mansion when she starts saying things to him she doesn't really mean.  She says she didn't know he was that filthy by using the girl and treating her dishonestly.  He replies back that ever since he's met her he was so happy and forgot about that (we see him naked, etc.).  She replies back their contract is void.  He replies back if that is what she wishes and when the elevator opens she leaves and says "very well".  She also thanks him for all his help.

Then it's night time and Ririchou is thinking back to her childhood again.  That everyone gave her fake smiles without any emotion but Soushi sees right through her and is kind to her with all his heart.  But he could do that without any emotions and it scared her.


The next morning Ririchou is getting ready for the day and opens the door and sees Nobara.  Nobaru starts lecturing Ririchou about wearing a bra and that she wants to help her.  Then she asks Ririchou if she wants to make a contract with her.  Ririchou thanks her but she didn't want to have a agent.  Nobaru replies back that she did make a contract with Soushi and she hopes they make up soon.

Then it's nighttime again and Rirouchou is sitting on a bench and drying her hair.  When the lights go off and she thinks a blackout and turns around.  She is grabbed and thrown to the ground and a gun is shoved into her face.  We see a man and he demands that Rirouchi take him to her room and give him all her money.  He makes fun that he was able to get into the Mansion so easily.  Then he takes his hand off Rirouchou with this surprised look on his face.  Rirouchou eyes start glowing purple and her voice is different when she speaks.  She tells she's not afraid of his kind, etc.!  He moves away while saying her eyes glow and is about to start shooting.  Her eyes stop glowing and she has a surprised look on her face.  The robber's gun is gone and we see Soushi's finger plugging up the gun while we see a bullet on the ground.  He apologizes for being late and then turns and says to the robber you dare to point your gun at Rirouchou.  He turns into his demon form spirit and then we see the others in their demon forms too.  They robber gets scared and grabs Karuta but she disappears and we see her clothes on ground.  He runs up the stairs when a big scary skeleton head is in front of him and then he runs away.

Then it's morning again and Rurouchi is having breakfast with everyone and Soushi kisses her hand.  He makes a pledge to serve until the day she dies.

We open the episode with Haruka playing the piano in class and everyone is impressed. Really loved the piano music! The teacher says Haruka got the highest score on the songwriter test and now there's the talent of the girl. Some of her classmates say they don't get it and it's like she's a new person. You see her friends with happy faces.

Then we see Haruka in her room and talking to her grandma letting her know what's happening.  She looks out the window when she sees Ichinose walking.  She rushes downstairs and yells out his name Ichinose-san.  He stops and turns around and she rushes up to him.  He looks like he's scowling again and they look at each other.  Haruka looks down and says I realized that time that you aren't a twin but Hayato-sama.  The she asks him if his leg hurts and if he's okay?  He looks surprised and then looks down and says it has nothing to do with you.  Please don't bring that up again. It's a nuisance and then he walks away!

Then we see Haruka in the cafeteria with her friend eating spaghetti but she's not eating.  She's thinking of Ichinose aka Hayato and why he would be going to this school?  Then we hear her friend calling her name and Haruka snaps out of it.  She says Haruka has been acting weird and it's because Shinomiya-san interrupted Hayato's performance.

We also see the idol guys listening to Ichinose sing and then the teacher says that he's singing is on time but it has no heart.  He then tells Ichinose he's no longer in his class.

Then we see Ichinose in the director's suite and the director starts lecturing him about how he gave him a chance to come to this school and to help him change managers.

Then we see Haruka and Tomo in their suite talking.  Haruka is looking out the window again and Tomo is talking when she sees Ichinose walking.  Haruka starts running out of the room to find Ichinose and finds him where they first met.  He starts singing his Hayato song when he notices Haruka listening.  They start talking and he says he wanted to come here to sing but he can't, his songs don't have heart apparently.  Haruka says that's his best song he was singing and it was beautiful.  He replies, "probably because it's Hayato's song?"  If I try to sing it as Ichinose Tokiya it's no good!"  Then Haruka starts saying she had trouble playing the piano but she shouldn't have her fingers wouldn't move and it probably is the same for him.  Then he gets upset and says he's tired of hearing her talking like she understands him". You and I are different!  Excuse me!  He sure has the glaring look down!  Then he walks away with Haruka looking on with a shocked face!

We open the episode with everyone in the cafeteria talking.  Otoya asks Haruka if is going somewhere and she relies, "yes she's going to Hayato's concert."  Masato says, "he worried".  Ren comes up behind Haruka and says, "he will take her, consider it a date".  Masato replies back, "that worries me more", while glaring at Ren.  Then Masato and Ren have a glaring match.  Haruka says she's capable of going by herself and then she takes off.

Then Haruka turns a corner and walks into someone.  She bounces off his chest and falls to the ground.  She looks up and realizes it's Ichinose and she's about to pick up her Hayato CD when he also grabs it before her.  The cameras pans close to his face and he has a mad look on his face.  He hands it back to her and starts walking away.  Haruka says, "wait" and he stops and she's asks him "if he's going to his brother's concerts?"  He says, "are you going?" and she replies, "yes".  He tells her to be careful and then walks away again.

Then we see her outside a skytrain station looking lost.  She has a map on in her hand and she's talking to herself.  She starts asking people but they ignore her when she notices Natsuki sitting on a bench drawing.  She goes over and starts talking to him.  He tells her to move she's casting a shower and being quite rude to her.  She moves back startled (he never acts this way and when he looks up at her he's not wearing his glasses).  In the background we see two guys chatting and one of them throws his waste on the ground.  Natsuki rushes over there and pushes a hole beside the guy who threw the paper.  He starts yelling at him when we see someone rush up behind him and puts his glasses back on him.  He blinks and crouches down and says to the guy and points to his t-shirt and says I'm also a fan of too.

Then we see Natsuki, Shou and Haruka talking and Natsuki said there going to Hayato's concert because after there is going to be another show that Shou wanted to go too.  Shou said he only wanted to go to keep Natsuki company.  Then we see them at a little cafe with Natsuki having some ice cream.  He fascinated by it and everyone is talking then they are having hot chocolate.  Shou is blowing the coffee for Natsuki when we see Natsuki's nose twitching and then he sneezes and his glasses come off.  Oh no his alter ego Satsuki comes out and starts insulting Haruka and Shou and saying he's not nice like Natsuki.  He then starts to punch a tree and it falls and everyone starts running/screaming and trying to get away.  We see Shou sneaking behind Natsuki and puts on his glasses.  He calms down and then they arrive at the concert.

Hayato starts his concert but you can tell he's not really into it and then suddenly he stops.  Natsuki's glasses come off again and then he jumps onto the stage and asks Hayato if he could sing.  Hayato says yes and then Natsuki starts singing and everyone sees it on TV.  Haruka realizes that Ichinose is Hayato.

We open up with Tokiya walking past Haruka and looking at her with that mad look on his face as usual.  A little bit later we see Haruka playing with the black cat when we see Shou dropping from a tree behind her.  He scares her and ask her to keep it a secret from everyone.

The next day Haruka learns from Otoya that Ryuga-sensei the homeroom teacher from Class S is starring in a movie.  Haruka also finds that Shou is a big fan of Ryuga sensei and is about to tell Shou about the movie.  Natsuki corners the two of them and finds out that Shou suffers from acrophobia.  His friends (Haruka, Ren, Otoya, Masato, Natsuki and Tomochika) try to cure him of his phobia so he can try out for Ryuga-sensei's movie "The Prince of Precipes".  But this only scares him even more!

We see Tokiya walking up the path to the grocery store when Haruka comes out the door.  They kind of look at each other surprised and then have a brief conversation.  Then Haruka brushes by him and he looks back and stares at her.

Suddenly the school principle pops out of nowhere again and says he can find out why he's scared of heights.  He proceeds to hypnotize Shou and we find out that Natsuki chased him up a tall tower and Shou almost falls off it when they were 5 years old.

At the end Shou has decided to give up when Natsuki dresses him up in a cute dress (he actually looks cute in it) when Hyuga-sensei happens to jog by and says, "Shou is exactly who he was looking forward to playing his sister".

Anime Review: Uta Prince No Sama: Maji Love 1000% Episode 2


We open up with Haruka coming upon her idol Hayato late at night on the school grounds.  He says he's Ichinose Tokiya and not to compare him to Hayato.  The headmaster magically leaps in and announces that he's Ichinose Hayato's younger twin brother.




Later while in class we are shown how the first term will be conducted.  The class is composed of people that desire to be an idol or desire to compose for them.  They are to get to know one another and to work together but at the end of the term they are going to be officially paired up with someone to help them carry forward onto their journey to produce excellent work and graduation.  The number one rule is no dating and not to fall in love.

Haruka is paired with Ittoki and he really wants to do very well for her (you can tell he has a crush on her) and she doesn't want to embarrass him.  During class she is called to play the piano but her fingers wouldn't move and everyone thinks she can't read music because she was taught by her grandmother instead of professionally.  Some of her classmates are wondering how she got in and if she had a hidden connection.

We learn some of Haruka's background and it shows she does have hidden talents but hasn't shined through yet.

Anime Review: Uta Prince No Sama: Maji Love 1000% Episode 1


We open up with all the idols singing and dancing on stage.  The dancing, song and outfits are really cheesy but fun and upbeat!  I was singing along to the song.

Haruka desperately wants to attend Saotome Academy so that she can become a composer for her favorite pop idols. When she’s late to the entrance exam she almost never gets her chance until two beautiful bishounen Otoya and Ren appear and come to her rescue. Ren vouches for her saying Haruka was late because she was helping a little girl with finding her umbrella.  The guards get a phone call from the head master and they say they are making an exception and allowing Haruka to take the exam.

After becoming a full time student, Saotome and her best friend Shibuya begin to meet the very beautiful pop idol wannabes that become her friends and make up her world which includes the serious Masato, the fun loving Otoya, flirtatious Ren, cheerful and energetic Shou, Natsuki who loves cute things and brooding  Ichinose who looks an awful lot like her favorite idol.

During lunch in the cafeteria Haruka trips and Shou grabs and saves her lunch card.  She thanks him and Ren comes along and says, "he has an eye on her already" and teases Shou by calling him short stuff.  They exchange words when Masato arrives and banters with Ren.  Then they have lunch, etc.

Near the end of the episode Haruka is in her room when a black cat steals her underwear and runs out the window.  She follows it to a gazebo where she sees Hayato and tells him she's a fan of his.  He stands up and says, "he's Ichinose Hayato's younger brother and not to confuse him with his brother".  You can tell he resents his older brother.



The episode ends with the opening song for the rest of the episodes.  You see Haruka interacting with all the idols.  I really enjoy this song and it's sung by one of my favorite anime voice actors.

I really enjoyed the background music and the personalities of all the main and secondary characters.  I do have my favorite idols.

5/5
