Kashimashi 06
I’m pretty surprised at the amount of drama that’s being infused in Kashimashi right now. I almost kinda stopped watching this episode halfway because it was getting quite sappy. I need more humour, goddamn it!!!
Anyways, it’s about high time everyone stop being so conscious about Hazumu’s previously a boy. IIRC, in the manga, they were quite over the “Hazumu was a boy!! OMG!!111″ thing around volume 2?
The manga was also quite lighthearted compared to the anime right now, which has a quite heavy atmosphere surrounding the three main characters. I guess I’m just not quite used to watching romance shows at this level of sappyness.
To end this post….. what the dog did in this episode is sooo wrong….. ***sooooo wrong***. Plus, I’m starting to hate Hazumu’s father. And I really pity Asuta, since the next episode *will* make him experience both heaven *and* hell at the same time.

Yeah, Hazumu’s dad is becoming seriously disturbing. I’m guessing it’s meant to be comic relief but it’s really creepy.
I did like how the Hazumu-Tomari backstory was fleshed out in the anime. Felt a bit skimpy in the manga which also made Hazumu more passive in the bride-groom exchange.

Well, Asuta’s best friend became a cute girl, is being chased by two OTHER girls (and possibly more), was all over the news.. and lives with Jan-puu, who looks bloody marvellous in camo. :D The guy just can’t catch a break.
I’m just glad we got a Tomari-focused episode which fleshed out the backstory a bit - it’s nice to see Tomari do something besides running off or looking wistfully at Hazumu, even if it was shoving Hazumu in Yasuna’s direction, or the final almost-confession in the last scene.
