Yep, they did get married too fast. How the hell do you marry someone you didn't go past first with? And it was so sudden that Kotoko was still calling Naoki by his family name.

Had a good laugh at all the Engrish, but was rofl when the passport guy said "Okini!" back to Kotoko.

And that big, scaaaaaaaaary gaijin thought Kotoko was still in elementary school? What kind of midget is she?

I feel sorry for that woman's husband.. I mean, she wanted to cheat on him and he is such a nice guy. Bless him.
It was a cute episode but a bit of a let down from the last one.
I did go all fangirly when they kissed and it showed a shot of them in bed XD
The Engrish was funny XD
Obasama was hilarous. Her Engrish was pretty darn good too!
The next ep looks like it'll have more Chris and Kin-chan in which should be good. Yay for Itazura na Kiss!

Cute episode :) I am glad that they have kept the same opening song for the second half of the series, it's a good song. I wish they would update the characters that are shown in it though ^_^

Ahh hawaii! The English is always hilarious :D Reminds me of the taiwan live action version of that storyline. More bad English :D The bed scene in the drama was *cough* really good, lol :)

What a cute episode :D

But that big-boob'd bimbo was getting on my nerves, good thing Naoki's mum was there - my favourite part of the episode. I really hope Kin-chan and Chris get together hehe.

Still, last episode was better :P

She's my favourite character. Her evil laughter is priceless.

My fear that the show would go downhill hasn't turned true yet... I'll keep my fingers crossed!

Seems like it :D but what else is expected on a honneymoon :)

Cute ep all the way. Seems like most think its all going too fast, but i kinda like being married and going beyond that point. Most of these type of shows just end it all with a single kiss and thats that, but wouldnt it be fun how that awkward relationship evolved beyond that point? thats kinda my main motivation to watch itzura na kiss, that and couse i just like it ofc :p

The Mari character was getting on my nerves throughout the episode. Even though the ending made up for it all, that type of blatancy really almost made me skip those parts. It was just too over the top. As for the Engrish, when will the Japanese stop hiring Japanese people to do English voice acting? For that matter, French and German too. I'm sure there are more than enough fanboy/fangirls out there who would do it for free if asked. -_-

Still a perfect score episode, but damn she got me angry.

It occurs to me that even though this series has taken place over years, the characters look exactly the same... weird.

Mari's bathing suit is cute! Although it would only look good on an anime character. She's the one who's going to get divorced soon, though... I feel bad for her husband, since he clearly cares about her a lot. I was really shocked when he slapped her, but she definitely deserved it.

Kin-chan and Chris are gonna make an adorable couple! I have a feeling I'm going to enjoy them more than Naoki and Kotoko.

Naoki's mom's English was the best thing ever. "Oh! Mistake!" Awesome. I just love that the Iries were totally stalkers in this episode.

Kotoko was quite selfish, but I'm glad she admitted it and everything turned out okay. :)

Oh, and the photo album thing looked pretty neat.

oh, these little earthquakes

It took until the second time she got hit with it for me to realize it was Obasama xD When I did, I had to laugh extremely hard and cheer for her. So awesome x)

Great episode. Naoki makes me all tingling now -- before I always just wanted to slap him. Definitely looking forward to the second half of this series x)

Eh, now that I have time to think about it, I forgot how much of an Bizarro World Japan really is. The pressure for Japanese women to marry before they are 25 and over the hill is so strong that there doesn't need to be much of a preceding relationship before they take that plunge. They can see someone for all of two months, and if it didn't suck, they'll go right ahead with marriage.

Of course, as the episode mentions, those result in Narita divorces, thanks to all those arranged marriages and marriages where the couple barely know each other.

First base is a kiss and they did kiss 2 times before marriage, although both times where one sided. So they did past first. Although I agree, they did get married way to quick.

Also I don't agree with people saying Kotoko was selfish for yelling out not to touch women. Kotoko knew the women was trying to win over Irie so she yelled out her feelings because of it. I think in a medical setting Kotoko wouldn't have cared as much since Irie would clearly being doing it for people that are sick and he would be surrounded by nurses and other patience.

The English was so funny threw out this whole episode.

When the guy at the airport was asking for her passport..he sounded like a robot..instead of "show me passport please" should have been 'hello we can't afford acters with good english so we have this crappy talking computer, passport please :D' XP

Remember, it used to be common for people to get married with much less than a kiss ;) And it still happens today too... ^^

Simply amazing episode, a pure demostration of why I enjoy this anime. Romance + Comedy = Win

I think I have to disagree on the whole "too fast" P.O.V. They had been as close to a relationship as they could've been. I still am amazed that I have to thank Kin-chan for making it go a bit faster.

I bet my life savings on next episode being Chris is about to leave, Kin finds out about it and we have a nice cliché love scene at the airport.

So they waited, what, a week to consummate their marriage? I don't know what it is about completely asexual male characters in anime, but this just seems kind of unrealistic.

Could be he was nervous, or he was worried about her being nervous. There are guys out there that aren't born experienced ;) I think it's pretty realistic considering how reserved he is by nature.

Jeez Naoki is such a cold and distant husband I don't see how their marriage is supposed to last. After her initial goo goo stage is over, I think she'll lose interest quickly, and he's too retarded to fight back. Gah he's such an idiot, and so is Kotoko for loving him so freakin' much

Naoki's comment about not remembering them spending time alone together pissed me off. What, he just didn't notice for the entire week (or two?) that the other couple was hanging around them all the time?! He just didn't notice Mari clinging to him the entire time?! And Kotoko is an idiot for being won over with just a kiss. Even if Naoki does truly love her, it doesn't excuse his cold and distant behaviour. Granted, this is anime so I suppose I have to look over this (and accept the fact that the whole series is pretty ridiculous in itself). But sheesh, in real life, this pairing would never work out.

Mari was obviously pretty annoying, but I didn't like the Naoki reacted when Kotoko said to stop touching her. Mari was clearly coming on to him the entire episode and touching him all lovey dovey style, she just finally snapped because clearly Mari was faking it so that they'd have no time together. I really wish Kotoko was the one to slap Mari, but at least it happened.

It was hilarious when Naoki's mom threw the beachball at Mari. I wasn't expecting her to be there and then suddenly she did that. It was crazy.
