Meeting Misuzu and Carol's mother is something I didn't expect, now I don't know which is the quintessential MILF in this series: Akemi, Mizaki or Ferris.

I was hoping that they would break that tension being at Jun's house but then I remembered that we are going for # 5 and that would lower interest in the series for the rest of the series

Que nostalgia la referencia a Winning Eleven (buenos tiempos). Detrás de su cara inocente, Carol es muy inteligente. Hizo en dos segundos el problema de matemáticas de Tomo y Misuzu, y quedo primera en los exámenes. Dome Carol, y no pare de domar. La madre de Carol también es muy simpática.

So many good bits in this one, the first two being focused on the girls were both fun, Carol’s mom doesn’t seem far off from Carol herself and Gundou’s mom had a similar reaction to Carol as Gundou did lol, and both great milfs to add to the list in this show. I also enjoyed Gundou having a nice moment with Tomo and Carol when helping them study.

But even with those two great first bits, my favorite was definitely the gaming sleepover one, it was a mix of cute and nostalgic because I was really reminded of staying at friends’ places and doing this exact thing growing up and there’s no beating gaming with the buds, of course there was some extreme tension going on between Tomo and Jun too for obvious reasons lol, and then there was Tomo getting spooned by a sleeping Jun which was fantastic.

God damn Carol's house is huge, and her mom is as much of an airhead as her daughter. I mean the daughters resemble their respective mothers quite well.

Also I did not expect Carol to be that smart, a hidden genius.

That sleepover at the end as well, 11:30 and 12am are late times for them.... actual rookie numbers, those 2 times are so early for me lol, I sleep at like 2am even when university starts and I have to wake up early I still sleep at like 12am or 1am...

Need to see Misuzu and Tomo's mothers meet up again, seems like they have some history :)

Very cute introduction to Carols mom; now we know where she gets her quirkiness from.

I really do wish Tomo got to study with Jun. would have been cute if she was doing a problem and she couldn’t do it and be leaned over close to her to show her. Would have been awkward but maybe it would show more progressing between the two

Tomo going over to June house is pure gold. But what was his deal with him sitting in his desk chair, sighing and then slapping his face? Maybe he finally realized that she was at his house, in his shower…naked?? And then being awkward while she was drying her hair?? Best parts were when she kept losing and they were messing around and how he was leaning over her…perfect set up for a kiss!! And then him spooning her and waking up with her next to him! Priceless! But what was he trying to say before he fell asleep?

Carol really is a princess, I mean how big is her house and yard?? Her mom was... interesting, like mother like daughter, but why are her sleeves so long? You know I feel like Misuzu's feelings are starting to look more open thanks to Tomo's best friendship. Tomo and Jun are spending the night together, and her mom's already considering baby names for her grandchild, priceless😂! Her dad wasn't phased by that, hmm I think a overprotective dad's a bit funnier lol. I think after what happened last night changed their relationship a bit.

Carol’s the undisputed best character. I laughed hard as hell when she said Misuzu and her had matching braids and then Misuzu took her hair band out, then when Jun took their hair ornaments and put them high up. I laughed a couple of episodes back when he took Misuzu’s scrunchy and threw it. It’s petty things like that that really make me laugh.

carol is the ultimate character.. smarter than everyone else but still adorable and ditsy (i can see why some have claimed she might be autistic, but seeing as her family is just as ditsy i think its just a cultural thing)


also its nice to see tomo and jun just play around, bragging about how late they've been awake (MIDNIGHT! THATS THE NEXT DAY), and just having fun playing not PES together. the moments of them touching each other felt a little awkward but i understand its just them being half asleep and playing with each other.

Now for anyone wondering how and why Carol got the way she is right now, watching this episode makes it crystal clear… it’s the genes of her mother doing the thing. But she’s a sweet girl, inviting her friends over to her house, that HUGE house. Though they didn’t spend the night which for some reason was a great thing indeed as I don’t think Misuzu would’ve been able to endure that torment from Carol’s mother like that one time a whole night lol.

Also see those super free-spirited people like Carol are always the ones backstabbing when it comes to scoring in tests, you’d think they fail but no it’s them topping the charts… atleast in the world of anime. Nevermind this episode certainly is for mothers, we saw all three of them, but still think it’s a tie between Tomo and Carol’s mother on who’s how strange.

Tomo didn’t spend the night over at Carol’s house but she did at Jun’s.. thank the brotherhood, but waking up together on the same futon in the morning is definitely something they wanted but not this way.

You wrote everything we now don't need to write it. Thanks

The free-spirited Carol wanting to hang out with Misuzu and Tomo at her house, she's such a gem. BUT HOT DAMN, she's a rich girl, with both girls noticed by her mother. The genes are so alike lols, it reeks awkwardness from both girls. The opulence draws from her personality, and her mom is a stalker so much that even Misuzu's cold-heartedness is no match for her. But what a family the Olston family is, such eccentricness of foreigners.

Midterms are coming up, and Tomo is shrieking out. Nevertheless, it's a study session at Misuzu's house, and there's nothing but bad memories for the latter in regards to her and Tomo in their childhood. As expected, Misuzu and her mom are alike as well, but for Carol to be a genius is underrated at best of how she's able to solve math equations lols. And the results speak for themselves: Tomo achieving a better score, while Jun gets roasted by Misuzu and Carol, the latter always being the undisputed No. 1 rank. Carol is really a genius.

Jun and Tomo's childhood sure got some jabs during their young days playing games, and Junichiro invites Tomo over to his placw for a gaming overnighter...too mich to realize that she forgot that she's staying over at his place. Carol, knowing this, doesn't doubt that she shouldn't go because this is a private thing to get their relationship faster into action: a potential grandchild. While Tomo's mom has some concern, her dad surprisingly isn't, and the gaming hijinks continue with Junichiro being the only person in the house. Tomo thinking that Junichiro is getting awkward, but he's just the way he is. The mnd games continue between the two of playing gaming overnight, but it becomes apparent that they run out of stamina. Tomo aking a chance to poke at his facial features before Junichiro strangling Tomo in her sleep, yelp.

The night came and gone before Tomo realizes it, but the everyday life is indifferent, while changing a bit. Really fun.

I don't know if they will show why in the anime but in the manga she was born in Japan so she is the product of their system.

Damm guess Sally is really from a rich family huh. We can see where Carol got her personality from. The visit to Carols home sure was fun. Guess home visits to Misuzu's was put on hold after Tomo's rampages. Tomo's desire to go to uni though was a surprise. The results really was a shocker though. The reactions of Tomo's parents to her staying over sure was like night and day. The gamenight at Juns sure wasa valuble experience for both of them though.

Best episode so far.
I really love the duo of Misuzu & Carol, actually Misuzu is my favourite character and 2nd favourite Carol.

Really loved the home visit, but damn bigggg house is that.
And,
What!, A treat!
My two favourite voice actress in one episode.
"Ohara Sayaka" and "Kawasumi Ayako".
That's the sole reason, this my favourite ep yet.

Man, Jun became so flustered that he took the pose of Bertholdt.
Fantastic.

She's built different as they say

though it could also be in part to her upbringing
as for me I wouldn't mind being friends with a cute and friendly gal hmm
but kids value lots of different things aswell so who knows; being weird can leave you very ostracized even as an adult! godforbid other kids see you as strange.

It's nice to see this great romcom manga animated, but even if some scenes are satisfying and well done,
overall, most of the art, direction and soundtrack along with the voice acting isn't great, nor is what I imagined at all from reading the manga.

It doesn't portray the same charm or hysteria of how cute and funny the manga is.
Most of the cast portrays the characters decently, but aren't the best voices for the role at all, if not close enough. 

Carol's voice is the most disappointing, while the rest of the main cast are acceptable, and Tomo-chan's is kinda great, 
but Carol's mother isn't what I expected at all... in the fan translation or the licensed manga was it ever implied that she has an english accent.
... Does the original japanese manga have text to portray Carol's mother speaking in flawed japanese with her english accent?... 

To be fair, this adaption isn't bad overall, and the only best lovable voices (even though I didn't know what to expect from) are Mifune and Ogawa. 
Misuzu's is close to perfect, while Jun's is good, and Tomo's is great and very fitting after getting used to it.

... It's disappointing how a lot of great scenes are cut as well.
In this case, one of them being of the trio talking with Carol's mother and realizing she's her mother after Carol jokes that she's her sister which they took seriously. Misuzu's mother meeting Carol was changed also... very disappointing.

It’s funny how they deliberately avoided mentioning the real age of Carol's mom lol, I guess they wanted to avoid any controversy.

That being said, with this episode I just noticed how much content from the manga is being skipped, which is of course expected, but it makes the serie looks more rushed than it already is, plus some very good jokes and characters interactions were set aside

It's the Carol Olston Show!!! With special guest star: Mama Ferris!!!

I suppose we will never hear the tragic backstory of how Ferris Olston lost her hands. (I prefer to think that the character was drawn by a novice assistant who was not good at hands and fingers-->sweater hands.

This show keeps getting more and more split into good scenes (scenes with Misuzu) and bad scenes (seens without Misuzu). Such a great and relatable character! I like how she's always cold and distant, yet aware of her personality. And how she does care about her friendship with Tomo a lot and was so suprised and happy when she told her she'd try to get into the same university. She had quite a rough time with the Olsons though, losing all the time. 

The portray of highschool misfit girl's friendship is great in general. Misuzu is one thing, but the Trio with Carol and Tomo is even better!

The "other side" of the show, the romance stuff, still hasn't warmed up to me though. For one, I find that there is a lack of development and insight into Jun's character. And then, it is kinda painful to see Tomo and Jun being so self-conscious it almost endangers their friendship. If they, or at least one of them, was totally oblivious, this would be a lot funnier. I hope they'll follow the motto "My partner is also my best friend and that's ok" soon.
