Chizuru should never start a sentence with "Even an ordinary girl like myself..." It isn't natural.

This is genius! I laughed harder at this than anything in the episode.

Nothing to write home about in this episode. I was hoping that after how good last week's playing house mini-episode was, the show might pick up again. At the moment, Squid Girl is pretty cute - just not very funny.

Chizuru should remind herself that she is abnormal.

Ika-chan dressed in winter clothes was very cute XD

I liked whole of this episode.

She's not ordinary, more like a 3rd or 4th degree blackbelt with a yangire streak that scares even myself.

Ayumi learning self defense skills was awesome and even used it on her father lol.

I thought at some point they're gonna grill some squids. That would've been hilarious.

Chizuru with ponytail suits her character more.

That 3rd segment was really entertaining! Those MIT guys.. XD

Lol, the first segment was all about getting beef in the bbq >.<

Second segment was funny. Really liked Chizuru's reaction to being questioned as a "normal girl". Ayumi used it on her dad! :D

Third section was the funniest. Ika-chan looked nice in winter clothing :)

Thanks, person who gave me this on another site a long time ago, lol.

Chizuru's like "Superman without his weakness." (There was some episode where Superman became a total dick.)

Everyone still likes Superman because he has a known weakness and he's an all-around nice guy. I don't know about Chizuru (outside Japan and the otaku-base).

1st part, Eko competing for her share of barbecue beef against Chizuru and Ikachan, but have totally forgotten Takeru.

2nd part, Eko can kick ass, and Ayumi wants to learn from her, but poor Goro has to be the practice dummy.

3rd part, MIT dudes made a contraption that cools the area where Ika and guys are located and it's finally nice to see Cindy in her striped bikini without the red jacket. btw their contraption has gone haywire.

The first segment deeply reminds me of Gintama going psychological over food.
And Goro's such a masochist. XD
3rd part is ok.

...and now Ika-Musume is back to only decent quality.

1st part was meh. Boring conversation. Ending was predictable.
2nd part was alright. Not that funny, but at least enjoyable.
3rd part was the best out of the three segments. Loled at the ending.

I remembered I've complained before somewhere, but... just what is wrong with Ika-Musume now? It's nowhere as good as when it started in October.

3/5

The first part was a remake of Gintama's food battle episode - and was great. The other two parts wreally funny too.

Agreed. That part was the best of the whole episode, though the other parts were also pretty nice. And, I think that the snow producing device hovered to a different part of the island where Ika-tachi and co. are living, because the place where this series takes place looks a lot like Okinawa. I also think so because the reporter that we saw, was in an earlier episode and if I'm right she's from the same island as where the cast lives.

I was wandering what happened to Takeru. Glad he got some food in the end.

I'm glad we had some Ayumi, she is seriously neglected. Goro, persistent as ever. I hope you will succeed. One day that is.

Ika-chan was really cute in that winter outfit. Enjoyed the segment itself as well. Kiyomi trying to slap Ika-chan back to consciousness was unexpected, but highly entertaining. A good episode 4/5.

Best episode so far. And someone at Crunchyroll was right: the first part is really Gintama-like. But I love Gintama, so I'm happy with that.

I really thought Takeru wasn't included in the first sequence, turns out he was just forgotten XD! He got the prime cuts though so all is well.

Goro's perfect for Chizuru since he's probably the only guy who can withstand all her abuse haha.

That battle for the meat was pretty fun. Fortunately, there was some meat left for Takeru as well.

Ayumi using her self-defense tactics against her father was hilarious. Goro got to be a practice dummy for Chizuru. He looked quite happy even though he ended up in the hospital, haha.

Those MIT guys and their random inventions.

Ika looked so cute in that winter outfit. :3

Cool snowman. x3

Poor Cindy.

Beautiful winter ending.
