Noooooooooooooo not the salt! Poor guy, his face looked so sad.

Very repetitive, but fun nonetheless, I expect a spin-off now. I think the biggest upgrade was her loss of freckles... hers just bother me...

Spiral! Summer Hurricane!

I have been loving this series but honestly, I didn't enjoy this one too much. I had a good one or two laughs but the episode was just kinda boring really. I can see there was plenty of references for those who like magical girl anime's though. Hmm would have preferred another comedy episode around Jun hiding her secret from Hajime (And I don't want to see that being done over and over again...).

I totally agree, she looks way better without the freckles.

I thought it was funny when they said that..they make a good comedy duo when she acts like Hajime!

Hilarious episode. I've laughed the most in this episode as opposed to all other ones, including the first season. Jun had a couple of good one-liners and Arashi and Hajime made a great team. Even the Kanako/Yayoi semi yuriness didn't bother me like it normally does. An episode like this is what the season needed to me.

What an arbitrary ability for Kanako to become a mahou bishojo.
I'm wondering, when she froze the crow, broke the glasses and deleted Hajime's memory were those her ghost-powers or magicalgirl-powers.^^

The salt! xD
Although I went "lol wtf!?" at Kanako's magical girl stuff O.o
Magical Maid with a slight touch of ancient Valkyria xD
Haha she can't say no to Yayoi now can she?xD Although she canceled D:
And why did Yayoi choose those glasses? D: They ruined her face O.O
Oh lol she jumped xD
Conclusion: Harr harr harr this is no conclusion : D

And as always, awesome episode xD

Noooooooooooooooooooo!!! The salt container!!! lol. that was pretty much the only thing i liked about this ep. Poor salt guy. Pretty boring episode at least for me. i just don't care about magical girls or those ridiculous transformations.



I didn't want to hurt you but you're pretty when you cry. I didn't really love you but I'm pretty when I lie.

NOT THE SALT! poor guy can't win.
anyways this episode proves an important life lesson- fear the power of the glasses

Since a magical girl anime was one of the first kinds i watched to get me into anime, I really liked this. I liked the situations Kanako was in with the water balancing and the handshake.

And I didn't think pickling brine was that thick.

That part with the water balancing had me in stitches.

Anybody else think that the background music @ 16:48 was really freaking good?

Also: "That dish was also made of baccarat."

So it was pick-on-Kanako week. <g>

I really enjoyed how they showed that Hajime and Arashi are kindred souls - more than they even realize. I just knew that they were going to try to pull one off on Kanako.

I didn't care much for this episode, but the salt guy made it totally worth it.

Oh, there's something on the floor.

My respect for SHAFT has gone up with this episode. Not only do they have creative animation, but creative storytelling too.

The end of the episode explains where Arashi got the spare glasses from. XD

LOL I'm pretty sure it's "Star Trek". More specifically they come from TNG (Geordi's visor)

This is the reason I like this show so much.

In fitting fashion, the phrase from the end story comes from Magical Angel Creamy Mami.
