Hot summer day : ) Melon is taking cold bath, Budoko is sleeping (and cat is trying to tease her !) And she was so pretty when she had straight hair and not twintails ! And her playing was funny to watch. And Yell cleaning the house ~~

Naah, nothing special happened here but... watchable :/

Overall, a very boring episode (damn filler episode) with the exception of Yell's day, which was kind of funny.

They either ran out of ideas, or spent too much of their budget elsewhere.
Who thought this was a good idea?
It was like the Muppet Babies not showing the owners' faces.
Yell's cat face was funny though.

It was ok, I guess.

Hmm, that's about all I can say for this episode...

So there going to cram all the "Akikan Elect" thing into the last 2 episodes? Surely they don't plan on making another season otherwise?

I won't defend this episode lol. I think Yell's mini arc was the most boring. At least grape bitch Budoko's arc was semi cute, and Melon's arc was watchable simply because it was Melon. Looks like perhaps a new Akikan is on it's way with the preview for next time :P

I think that if they want to do something different with a series, they could have this new Akikan crush all the existing ones... and have a sad ending to anime for once where they actually fizzle out forever. Not before a futile kissing attempt by Kakeru on Melon though... I think an unhappy ending is the best way to go.

The moral of the story could be that "you should appreciate the trivial things in life, even if it's just a drink from a can of soda" lol. And then they wake up and it's all a dream jk.

I hated this episode. By far the worst episode in the series. I like the overall series (right now I have it at an 8--based on pure enjoyment), but this ep was pretty much unwatchable.

I basically watched the first 5 min, got bored- thought it might get better- but it didn't. I kinda wish I had 20 min of my life back.

melon- trying to stay cool, while doing the laundry
budoko- gets attacked by a cat, and then plays princess for the rest of the day
yell- taking her name literally, and then fixing the mess she already cleaned (also what was up with the bra?)
a pretty funny episode, though the next episode introduces a new akikan, whose probably an aluminum can from the fact she seems to be squaring off against yell next episode
the only way to stop a gamer from playing is either: beat them, or wait until they get bored (though 2% percent suffer seizures

You should watch To-LOVE-Ru before you say that...

I thought this episode was okay. Although, they could've thrown in a whole bunch of random fanservice, and you guys probably would've liked it a whole lot more.

Haha, I gotta say, I really enjoyed this episode for some reason, Maybe because there was few human interaction to screw it up xD Either that or because there was pretty much no Kakeru in this episode. Gosh he is so annoying xD But anyways, this episode had it's cute moments. It was very natural, but in a comical way :)

This episode was slice-of-life filler to the extreme! Can't really say anything good about it. I mean I got the message they were trying to get across: women are supposed to do laundry. j/k. There was some butt and cleavage shots... Yeah, I got nothing.

Akikan for caffeinated beverages probably do. I know after I drink a high caffeine beverage I have mad squirts like whoa.

I really enjoyed this episode. Dare I say, the best episode. I almost forget the dumb concept for this series: aluminum vs. stell cans. It was a very laid back episode and sometimes the chilled way is the best way and I'm gonna have to say that Akikan is on of those series. I thought the Budoko part was cute though. She's such a little kid.

An easy going episode, but quite a fun one actually with the focus on the cans rather than the other characters!
