The Gag Contest is the funniest thing this week.

The part on Billy & Jacqueline was overdramatic and I didn't find that funny at all.

The problem with random comedy animes is that sometimes it doesn't hit me. That's exactly what happened in this episode.

Billy >>>>>>> Every FUKKEN Arakawa pathetic men; or better yet, this entire season's best male character, along with Soredemo math teacher & Twenty. So glad that this season at least has some worth noticing males <333

Awwww.... If only there's somebody like Billy who's suitable for Maria-sama ga miteru ore no Neo Armstrong Cyclone Jet Armstrong Cannon....



If he's not with us, he's AGAINST us!!!

A pretty decent episode, but nothing amazing about this episode. I wanted to see a cool fight between Billy and the big boss, but oh well. The best part was after the immitation of Ric in my opinion.

On a tangent, I totally want to own an Arakawa soundtrack.

I agree; this episode wasn't that funny to me, though I did like the parodies of different manga styles.

I decided to comment on each episode starting from now on as I see it and each episode within the episode passes.
Episode 137

Pretty interesting, for one I was laughing at who Rec discovered in bed when it was not Nino and two at Kappan being easily impressed by that new guy drawing a manga version of him. Oh also laughing at "Real mean wear loincloths.
Episode 138

Pretty interesting how Nino was eager to get her version but because how the new guy reacts to her he did not do one. Also the reactions Piko and the metal brother gave off were good. Of course there was finding out the pen name of the new guy being "Potato Chip Kuwabara" which was funny. Also the I am commander of space ship and manga drawing coming to earth to draw mangas. Brilliant tactic BTW that Rec used to get his pen name.
Episode 139

This one was amazing in not only Rec bringing Potato-Chips' editor but the editor convincing him of returning. Also Potato-Chips convincing of Nino working for him was hilarious especially the manga she did. In the end this segment Potato-Chips's new story was great. Especially how he made Nino into the Venus Queen. I do agree that enthusiastic impulses may lead to absurdity sometimes. Sister was also nicely rendered.
Episode 140

Good Nino and Piko moments. I was more entertained by how Piko bashed Hoshi in this one about his songs. Of course the renders of Billy and Jacqueline were good too.
Episode 141

Another excellent segment. Hoshi and Rec saving Jacqueline from the bees was good and Piko's reaction at first to Jacqueline mature patience and then to what Piko though that she was betraying Billy. Also good was the appearance of one of Billy's comrades coming to take Jacqueline.
Episode 142

Incredible revealing in this one about Jacqueline being the lady of the boss and whiling to risk her live to kill the boss of Billy's gang. The revealing of th gang that Billy belonged to was good information also along with the whole wing clipping.
Episode 143

Another good gag when everyone started to imitate the last thing Rec said with Sister having it right for the most part. A bit long for thoughts but maybe it best for each segment anyways tell me what you think about doing my view like this.

Ric looked a bit like Luffy in Captain's manga. Lol Potato-chip.
Billy and Jacqueline part was ok.
Not really as funny as the previous episodes but still entertaining.
And it was kinda amusing and nostalgic to hear "Hisatsu!!" from Tomokazu Seki in the preview xD

Series is kinda stalling for me, first season was pretty funny but, now it's just becoming tired, I wish they would just focus on Nino and Ric.

Sometimes all this delay is making some of us impatient, it's the same crap for eroges, how many times has school days stuff been delayed, nightmare times. Not that I care but setting a example.
