Overall, I thought this was one of the funniest episodes of the series. The first part was adorable, plus I just loved how they milked the Squid Girl X Chizuru comedy. The second part was hilarious because Sanae is just so over the top, it's hard to find a boring scene with her. It was also a little weird seeing Squid Girl in make up. But she was cute and at least they never brought out that creepy ass shrimp suit. Near the end of the episode, the American scientists were just annoying me. I was more than a little happy to see Chizuru to teach them a little respect. "GO CHIZURU! GO!"

I wonder how Ika's new friend will react when she finds out about the moving tentacles and stuff.

I loved this. I also loved that video on SoulFlyy post three above mine!

Couldn't believe they got Squid Girl playing knock'n'run! And then to have her make a friend was so cute! And Kiyomi totally beat her at all the video games! Hahaha!

What was next...Ah! The make-up! Yeah, it was good and all. Funny seeing all the different styles of fashion/culture in there, from Visual Kei to Geisha!

But they paled in comparrison to the third segment. I love those three American scientists and their really affected accents! "No Problem Desu!" Ahahaha Ehehehe!

Then Chizuru shows her skills in front of everybody and nudifies the three stooges in 1 hit!

And that ending was so adorable with Kiyomi stood there holding her hand! Awwwww..............

I liked Ika and her friend Kiyomi. They both enjoyed their time together. I agree the scientists are great. Especially when they made the store disappear. Then Chizuru certainly got them back for that. I did like how both Ika and Kiyomi were both in the credits.

I liked this scene.

You could practially use clips from this sub-episode alone as a montage with the ED.

It all started unexpectedly.

I'm sure Ika never expected ring-and-run to result in a friend.

It's practically a miracle we even met.

If Takeru and friend hadn't been playing ring-and-run, if Ika hadn't seen them, hadn't decided to emulate that behavior, if Chizuru had come along sooner (which would probably have stopped her from doing it) or later or not at all (in which case, she'd have been long gone), they would likely not have met. If Kiyomi had been too much later, it wouldn't have been as soon, but she could still have found out who it was. But still...

I was fumbling around when it happened...

Doing something she'd already thought would just cause problems for the people whose bell it was, getting caught, and having every attempt to get out of the situation foiled...

...but I'm happy we talked to each other.

Self-explanatory. :)

...

Of course it's hard to believe we ever ran into each other.

See "It's practically a miracle..."

Kiyomi's really cute. :)

Well, it would perhaps have been better to let them know ahead of time so they wouldn't be surprised about it... of course, they seem relatively chill about things like that (see the episode where they let Nagisa stay the night even though it's short notice).

diomedecom... Diomede... there's a Diomede Bay in the Sea of Japan, though it's actually in Vladivostok... It could also be a reference to one or more of four mythological women...

There Eiko goes again, forgetting that you can't just give her access to some surface things without explaining them without reaping the consequences.

Chizuru's application of it was the cutest, but... I agree, she's cute as-is.

CHUUUUUUUU

She may be a girl, but that doesn't mean she knows makeup's porpoise.

What, exactly, did Ika lie about? She never said it was hers, let alone originally hers.

Sanae has mo' ai than Ika wants. :D

Guys don't stand a chance when you wear makeup like... that? I dunno, I find it quite resistible.

Wow, it looks like she's made up for a native tribe's special event.

Here's an ar-ten-ticle about jetting permanent marker off of skin. I don't ink it should be too different for Ika, but I can't be shore.

Studying? So she is going to school? What grade do they have her in?

America's pride? Maybe, if we focus on what they achieved tangential to their pursuits...

The first time I watched this, I thought we were going to have a watermelon monster with the majesty of an invader.

I wouldn't say Chizuru isn't a threat so much as an effective defense, given that she only does things like that when something else threatens.

It's actually just Diomedea (makers of the anime)+Capcom. They did Riddle Story of Devil this spring, and is also doing the KanColle anime.

Wonderful as you can laugh about events so normal and sometimes almost dramatic as those seen during the narrative of this episode. The best part, is still on the make-up. Drawings and animations, very good, the character of Ika, remains unsurpassed in its lead role, but also the other characters begin to take consistency in their identity. Sanae and Chizuru, are really hilarious.

Ika meeting kiyori led to a good arc, where Ika was afraid of Chizuru the whole time. And we have the makeup showdown, with Sanae lustful over Ika as always. But what got me cracking was when Sanae was willingly violated by Ika. When given the opportunity to turn invisible, she was like,



Atleast one more person understood how much scary Chizuru is.

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.

Scariest Good Luck face I've ever seen. Haha


Kiyomi's a cute kid. Very open-minded and interesting. Seems like she'll be a great friend. It's also a bit of a character development for Squid girl. Facing her fears and going up against Chizuru just to keep a promise to a new friend (even though nothing bad happened). That's amazing on Squid girl's part. The girls are lucky to have found each other.
Sanae's a freak. Lol


Awww, they're holding hands. That's cute

Nice to see Ika getting to know friendly person.. I enjoy more friendly towards Ika characters.. Like Sanae and now Kiyomi..
This cafe suddenly has all sorts of people, lol.. ;P
Well, I'm personally more a fan of natural.. I don't really find any makeup attractive.. Unless it's like cosplay or something.. Otherwise it makes people look older by like 10 years or something usually.. But that's my personal feel, though..
Takeru became a trap.. ;P And girls are just enjoying his beauty, I guess..

Aww, Ika got a new friend. She and Kiyomi had so much fun together. ^^

Ika looked cute with lipstick. Sanae went crazy after she saw her, haha.

I think that was a little too much makeup. x3

Trap Takeru. xD

Lipstick suits Nagisa really well.

Sanae getting abused by Ika. As expected, she loved every second of it.

R.I.P Lemon.

That ending was so adorable with Ika and Kiyomi hand in hand. <3
