btw, did anyone get where teh ED song was from?

it was non anime related


Actually, it should be from Prince of Tennis. And the name isn't "Valentine day kiss", it's just "Valentine kiss" or ????????????, preformed by Suwabe Junichi (Atobe Keigo).
Here's a link with the full lyrics: http://www.animelyrics.com/anime/princeoftennis/potvalentinekiss.htm

I really liked this episode, definetly my favourite so far. Lucky star now feels so different from episode 1 and 2, its now one of the anime i look forward to the most each week. So far, the way its going, its getting better and better every episode.

I sure hope they keep it up ^w^

I liked the episode, but in this particular one, it was just so painfully obvious how much they really copy from Azumanga Daioh. It kinda gets to me.

"Timotei!"

Freakin hilarious. I think I used to do the same thing as a kid. :D

EDIT: For people not in the know, Timotei is basically a shampoo and they had cheesy ads in the 80s and 90s. I just loved saying the name. "TIMOTEI!!!"

I just noticed Kona-chans moe, and i find it very cool, also her hairdo was cool but should have been mor highlighted. Really liked the background art, and how konata interrupts the mood of summer by crying out loud summer. The scene with the sticky butt was kinda hentai but i liked it. I love how Kona prepares her prank on (pink girl) and misses it. I never thought lucky channel was really funny but im beginning to like the akira and shy guy everytime more. And also the ending theme was good. Yep Lucky Star is really establishing itself well... wonder if there is gonna be any romance in the series though...

The scene in the bathroom was funny, although I don't really like scenes where characters are naked, because it really restricts the shots that are available, and you end up with a lot of boring shots of people from the shoulders up. If Konata really wanted to look at Miyuki, she could have just asked her to turn around. Its funny that she was just acting out her little H-game fantasies. Also, when the twins were talking about 'that' and then Konata pops up and says "that was a candid conversation"

I also loved the Lucky Channel in this episode, where the shy guy says all the stuff he did for Akira, going to the mountains and the beach. I especially liked 'the gum was hard. I got all 54 pieces into my mouth'.

With the Initial D parody, the also subverted a Azumanga reference I was expecting, that Yui was going to drive crazy, and then she's an amazing driver.

Also, a slight 4th wall break when the girl listens to the shell, saying, "I can't think of anything funny to say." The bug in the shell was priceless.

Good episode. I liked the menstruation conversation, and Konata liking how blunt it was. It's weird that they're supposed to be 17 and yet have such boyish figures, although, the art style isn't supposed to be realistic. It's moe all the way.

Lucky Channel is different now, Akira is wearing short sleeves, so that they don't go over her hands and flop around like before.

Tsukasa and the seashell was the best part of the episode. But it was a very good episode. Tsukasa was so funny though. The bug made me laugh out loud for a good 30 seconds. I had to rewind.

This episode seemed like a bit of a copy of Azumanga Daioh, with the teacher and the cop.

Didn't get many of the references, but I still found it funny.

The Driving part was hilarious! also when she kept scaring them.
but half of these anime references i haven't seen yet, so i might not get the jokes like most of the people on here would. But it's still funny either way.

I think a lot of shows have beach episodes, so I'm not sure it's just Azu they're copying in that regard.

Anyway, it seems Kagami's swimwear is different here than in the manga. But in exchange, Miyuki's not just one big mound of hair here, so it works out.

I wonder if all the girls actually wanted to know about Miyuki's long and involved explanation of beach-related hair damage, or if a certain one is just basking in that stereotypical aspect of her. :D

Now I'm imagining Konata entering a bathroom with a bottle of shampoo, and soon enough, you hear: "Yes! Yes! YES!"

The only part bout this episode that i really liked was the Initial D reference. But other then that, it wasn't that great. Honestly i don't see how so many people love this anime, every time i watch an episode im hoping it ends as fast as it possible can, i guess this series is just really not meant for me. The references are just kind of stupid, there is no plot line, the characters go on and on and on about silly little things for half of an episode damn near and the animation is a complete turn off. No movement what so ever. This might be one of those series in rare cases that i may end up dropping.

Yeah, I like the racing bit. The English dub has those two guys sound like some of our race announcers. The song's really fitting, too.

And the scene after is oddly appealing, too. Her just kind of blissfully gushing to Nanako-san (one of the few times she's referred to using her given name) about how
her driving isn't inducing carsickness in her... as the car sits near the edge of a cliff and Kuroi is trying to figure out how to get where they want to go.

Air Chair? I find a brand of hydrofoil water skis... is that it?

Her story reminds me of Osaka's: the way they tell the stories is better than the stories themselves. I mean, the denouement is that he says "Danzen! Futari wa Pretty Cure!"? They're at the beach; too bad it wasn't "Makasete Splash Star".

Such a pretty sequence...

And actually, that means she's getting a stereo experience of the ocean's sound, right? ;-)

I don't know about trash bin; I mean, if the only thing wrong with them is that Inori can't wear them anymore, then hey...

I've seen the 1960 live action version of A Dog of Flanders, but no animated adaptations. (Man, if Minoru means the one from 3 years before I was born, that is pretty dated.)

Unsurprisingly, Tsukasa has a really cute singing voice.

Heh, Konata singing backup. It took a few iterations to realize she was singing "TSU-ka-SA" in that one part.

See also Azumanga Daioh, where they go with two. Three years in a row. And also where one of their teachers is almost always called by her given name.

One thing that may contribute to Konata doing so is that Kuroi-sensei uses her given name as her username in the MMORPG they both play, so maybe they're familiar enough that Konata feels she can do that. (Especially one who seems to have taken some medicine preemptively, though it turned out she didn't need it...)
