i am beginning to think she wasn't sent to invade, but rather to learn some social skills. what kind of invasion plan sends one little girl anyways?


Haha! I guess the invasion is just some hair-brained idea Squid Girl had on her own. I mean, she did think there were only about a thousand humans and had never heard of armies or missiles (miso-soup?)!

Loved Ika's facial reaction while working in the South Wind, and I'd never thought I'd see a better, more comic drummer than Animal from the muppets but our Squid Girl beats all others hands (tentacles?) down!

And it appears Ika has learnt the finer points of blackmail too! Poor Goro!

I wonder if Nagisa is the type to avoid horror movies like the plague, only to end up watching them all the time because her theoretical friend -- voiced by Cassandra Lee, of course -- teases her about not being able to handle them. ;)

Heh, it played like those sci-fi movies where the alien reports back to the mothership... only to turn out to be gaming!

Ika-Musume-sempai?!

Aww...

But then she can't bring herself to allow a handshake...

I was hoping to see Ika learning how to tickle...


Next season, though you probably know that by now. I suspect anachronic order is at play here.

Wow, these guys... are an insult to America, in terms of alien research. They managed some impressive things in pursuit of aliens -- I'd like that instant language-learning method, if it works -- but I thought true science inkvolved being able to accept your hypothesis being disproven, and treating it as just a hypothesis until it's proven or not.

Well, I suppose Ika wouldn't gilly understand that aspect of human attraction, not being a human.
(In that case, what are those bumps on her chest?)

If it's that packed, then maybe she should, I don't know, serve customers like she's accustomed to at Lemon?

...It's a sea cow!

Is it me or does Cindy have some kind telepathy? She made me suspicious at two points during the episode.

First: When she tried to get Ika Musume to go with her outside of the restaurant. Ika-chan runs away, and Nagisa thinks,"who is that?" Cindy looks directly at her and answers her question.

Second: After Ika-chan declares herself queen, Cindy offers herself as a loyal servant under the condition that Ika-chan go back with her to the lab later. Ika-chan is having a hard time deciding, so Cindy reaches into her thought bubble and literally tips the scale in her favor.

Seeing what kind of technology they have in the lab, this doesn't seem so farfetched. Maybe this be this was just obvious to everyone else de geso.....

Hilarious narration, Ika once again manages to support the weight that comes from being the protagonist. Very funny situations in which it is involved, the most interesting thing in the story, is that she now realizes to be good at everything but to invade Earth. Good performance that can give the other characters in the making from shoulder to Ika. Drawings and animations, good. Comic the final part where Ika is able to perform well even a song on drums.

This was a good episode. We have Nagisa getting this close to allaying her fears about Ika Musume chan but, reverts back to being afraid of Ika. Then we have MIT graduates, who seriously need to reexamine their talents.


Seriously, Gorou is such a predictable creep. He has hidden pics of Chizuru! Damn, even Ika could see it. (BTW, if you have any, just send them to me. For purely academic purposes of course!)

But the best part was when Ika musume put on a show. You rock those drums baby!


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.

Nagisa has the most overdramatic imaginations ever. Haha

Well shit, I never knew it was that easy to convince someone by tipping the scale, literally. haha


Honestly, switching Squid girl and the other girl so abruptly doesn't seem fair, but at least we see the Drum God in action. haha

Lol at Nagisa's imagination.

Ika and Nagisa's relationship is one of the funniest things in this show.

This scene looked so beautiful when Ika was alone on the beach.

Those three scientists are pretty hilarious. :P

Ayumu is so beautiful. It was nice to see her again. She did a good job at the Lemon.

Ika is quite an entertainer. That drumming part was priceless. xD
