Nice to see that this series hasn't just stayed funny, but it's got better as it's went on. The shrimp part had me struggling for breath. XD
And that umbrella... wow~ QnQ Such an emotional rollercoaster.
(although, I have to admit, when it was hit by the car I instantly shouted "DEAR SISTER PARODY! DEAR SISTER PARODY! D8")

The ED song was perfect for the umbrella part. :)

The blending of drama and comedy was good as usual.

Another nice funny relaxing episode with little Ika getting sic, finding new powers and creating games with an umbrella.

First was good i especially laughed at the crazy with Ika girl who had massive noseblled after.
Second part was good but worse that the first.
Third part was absolutely awesome. so cute, innocent and lovely. It just reminds you on how your mind use to work when you where a kid, thinking awesome crazy fantasies and finding ways to play with an object. i wonder if kids today with all the console games and staff can still find ways to play with a single object. I remember i was quite impressed too when i first saw one of those short umbrellas that got long and open with the push of a button.
Sad ending for Ika Mark-1 though it made the whole thing seem more sweet.

Ika was so adorable in the umbrella segment. I'm sure Mark 1 is doing Rolling Shower Attack somewhere in heaven.

Good episode but probably my least favorite so far. The umbrella part was by far my favorite of the three parts. I liked her little fantasy about defeating the android. :D Want more scenes with Gorou and Sanae, my favorite characters other than Ika Musume! Glad to see the scientists will be coming back in the next episode.

I don't want this show to end! Maybe it's time for me to start reading the manga too.

This show never ceases to amaze me!

The illness story was ace, with her being too ill to fight or be hyperactive (too many late night video games sessions perhaps?). But a large shrimp seemed to warm her up. It ceratinly seemed to warm Sanae up!

Squid-flaps was next, and my favourite bit has to be the dad dejectedly walking off muttering "I'm going to back to training"

Then Ika's spur-of-the-moment friendship with an umbrella was simply outstanding!

That can twirling trick she did was sooooo cool, as was testing out its defensive and offensive capabilities! "Mommy, I want to do that to" "Dont copy her" Haahaahaa

Okay, it's clear from looking at her that somefin's wrong, with her face all flushed like that. They take until evening to notice?

How do they know what's high for a squid? They should look into establishing a baseline for normal once she's all better...

Well, yeah, it sounds fishy at first, but if it were made up, she wouldn't put in the part that makes people refuse to feed her shrimp.

Poor girl... :( I wanna pick her up and cuddle her in my lap...

Yyyyeah, give it a little time, just to be sure it's gone. Check her vitals or something. ...Is 37 C normal for humanoid squids, too?

An inkteresting design. Perhaps it's the sort she's accustomed to...

Hey, Takeru is trying not to be so hard on your castle-building.

Did... she literally shock herself, or figuratively?

None; it's solid sand.

Ika's Moving Castle?

Eiko seems okay with going out in weather she hates. It doesn't seem like she's agreeing out of fear of Chizuru, anyway.

Aww... it's like when Takeru's hat blew away...

Tragicomic narrative, sometimes I wonder how we can take for granted certain aspects of life. Ika is fantastic in his role as protagonist, once again it proves to be superior to the other characters. Drawings and animations excellent .Sanae was able finally to be helpful with her from shrimp costume.

This anime is incredibly creative in its antics. I never laughed so hard. Also, looks like Sanae got some girl on girl action with Ika-chan(With bondage mind it). I was also amazed with Ika's moving castle, though they ended up to be her tentacles.

Even better was the umbrella part, where Ika does some incredible stunts and imagines winning over a robot looking almost like Eiko in hairstyle.

Sanae is blushing like crazy in this episode though. I am all for Sanae x Ika now.

Without change,we end up becoming the very person we hate.


I was dead until the moment I met you. I was a powerless corpse pretending to be alive. Living without power, without the ability to change my course, was bound to lead me to a slow death.

Also, Eiko finaly falls for the large moe emiting aura around Ika-chan, seriously, i would DIE if i had that face look on me! Ike should get sick more once in a while.
Yeah, the end of part 3 must be the most kind and sympathetic Eiko has ever acted towards Ika. But I'm sure she will be back to her old bullying ways in no time!
