LOL "something and Jerry".

I died laughing when Tohru squeezed the daifuku bun so hard that the red bean paste came out, and Yuki was all like "can't believe you would have squeezed me that hard..".

Their animal forms are all adorable.

This episode was HILARIOUS.

One flaw though-- it seems like not just hugging will turn them into animals; just a simple bumping into a non-Zodiac transforms them(?)

Damn, Toru is clumsy. She manage to surprise me by how she can create a mess from nothing. But Yui Horie voice is so smooth, I think I can listen to her voice without even watching the show, it's so relaxing.

I noticed it since few episodes, but the music really is beautiful, especially those slow ones.

Shigure is hilarious. He would fit more as the monkey in my opinion, but I guess he also suit the sly dog role.

It kinda reminded me of the first season of Ranma 1/2 when they kind of overdid the constant transformations.

This is definitely my favourite episode so far. I loved the whole set-up with them transforming into the animals and trying to prevent Tohru's friends from noticing. So funny!!

This show has been on my watchlist for ages. Glad I finally started watching it. This particular episode was hilarious. Also, the character design makes me feel nostalgic. Wonderful watch so far and I feel like this anime may end up as one of my favourites!

I loved this episode, and it only goes to show how much the 3 boys (Yuki, Shigure, and Kyo) admire Tohru. They're willing to set aside their differences in the pursuit of her happiness and are willing to risk their family secret so as to host her friends.

Every episode draws me in more and more!!!

I'm so happy to see her back at the Sohma house after that awful experience last episode! And now that she's officially living there she can tell Uo and Hana :D, as Shigure allowed it. And it should go without saying OF COURSE they're going to want to check it out to make sure Tohru's in good company safe and happy <3 They are truly a wonderous outcast trio. The too-nice girl, the ex-gangster, and the psychic. Ha-ha! I love it. Especially how the Sohna's were not expecting her friends to be so intimidating!
---
Why am I not all that surprised Shigure is a romance novelist! X'D
AND NOW I REALLY WANT TO KNOW HOW HANA FEELS ABOUT IT, because she made it sound like the book was awful, but then asked for the sequel.
---
I think Hana may indeed truly be a psychic. She is getting everyones animal aura's correctly. But since it's only an abstract knowledge and not concrete, it's okay that she "knows".
---
I do wonder if Uo and Hana will later be allowed to know the curse. :3 <3

i understand that the recipe for the episode supposed to be funny, but i found the way they turned to animals kinda stupid.

great episode in general.
