Episode 5
=======

This is another show where any function of 'how it should be done' goes right out the window and is replaced with sheer enjoyment. I really liked Azuka's reconciliation with her friends, I liked Yoto and Tsukiko's conversations both alone and with her sister.

I liked her sister's Massachusetts plan and the resolution to that.

I hate to keep saying about shows in these past few seasons, but it's true: I'm having enough fun watching it to forgive all the holes in it.

That said, this cracked me up.

Also, Tsukiko's sister sleep-talking was really touching, though I have a serious soft spot for those kind of 'Auska Moments'.

Next time: A new Stony Cat??

Episode 6
For someone who seems to be strong and tough, Tsukushi sure is guillable about the whole "brother situation" that started it all a few episodes back. Anyways, latest episode was okay.

Lol @ the spoiler[lewd moans during sit-up]s. I can't tell if that's intentional or not Anime hyper. Well ya, the cat statuespoiler[ continues to grant wishes although I think it has some sort of limit. That last wish this episode though definitely took the cake].

Episode 6

I noticed the Crime Edge reference.

Above it all, it looks like the sister loving Tsukushi has spoiler[her own female admirer, her friend had a mind so dirty it scared Yoto, and to a point that Tsukushi did not know what she was talking about] (which does not seem that difficult). Because of and despite how naïve Tsukushi is, she accepted the spoiler[lame ass plan of seducing his younger brother (himself)], it really was rather frightening. Although he was accepting of what spoiler[Azusa] put on the table, but she learned a lesson that she did not spoiler[want to cheat for his affections], I think fondly as it reminds me of a favourite scene in a manga I like.

Towards the end we saw Yoto so scared that he spoiler[called out for his mother (no means no), but went for a satisfying end as Tsukushi did not know what to do next]. The poor girl does not want to be alone, although it does seem to have spoiler[caused the apocalypse]. Also cute was Tsukiko, being all spoiler[happy about his compliments, singing a cutesy song (unfortunately the tone does not fit the cuteness), breaking his porn collection out of jealousy, and being happy about the dinner]. Best of all was her being found in spoiler[his shirt], her lame excuse covering her as much as spoiler[what she was wearing], Yoto even commented on what the cliché reason would be, which struck a nerve. Before Tsukushi scaring the hell out of him.

This was the best scene! And that whole thing with the apron excuse was amazing because, even if she can't emote, it's impossible to hide her embarrassment over being exposed.

Moelicious!

Also:

Handcuffs.

Scissors.

Sit-ups.

Puppies.

Tofu(?).

Episode 7
=======

This is the funniest thing in the episode that I didn't notice when I first watched it.

The scene between Yuto and Tsukiko was really nice, I really enjoyed it.

Henneko has gotten so harem-anime generic that it has become in serious danger of becoming totally boring. The neko magic is a little too handy for my taste. About the only thing they have built on the basic template is the idea that Steel thinks the lead is lead's younger brother which doesn't actually exist. She is something of an adorable lez incest muscle head. I'm pretty sure that combination hasn't been seen before.

The museum and its destruction was kind of funny.

Episode 7

So despite it looking like Tsukushi's wish was being the biblical floods, she spoiler[only destroyed the shed, and upon seeing what places were left untouched it became clear that Tsukiko was not that bothered by the situation]. It seems that Tsukiko spoiler[was so desperate for people to be close to her that she was willing to see everything go to ruins. And when he confronted her, she seems get very upset] (it is hard to see this just from her tone of voice) when he spoiler[rejects her acceptance of him as a brother role, but they were able to get close, and have some distance].

But there is Tsukushi, who has now evolved to have spoiler[feelings for both Tsukiko and the fictional brother] that she somehow keeps believing in despite him trying to prove otherwise. Although I do see the possibility if she ever did figure it out that she will go spoiler[threesome route], so look forward to the doujinshi. But the Tsukishi moment of the episode goes to the reveal of the spoiler[secret room in her closet] that has had a spoiler[naughty Tsukiko photo museum]. Should I be feeling this sorry that she lost her spoiler[shrine]?

But then Azusa, she is going good, although her spoiler[frustration seemed to get to breaking point when she ominously wished to be a new her]. What will happen next? And then the picture at the end. Seems they are implying something to do with the random pink haired girl that is at the end of the OP, and in some artwork.

Another thing I noticed is something to do with rabbits, the OP has an ominous looking one in it, and the his friend had one in this episode.

The older sister is already expressing a desire to go down the ménage à trois route, even though she still thinks the dude is the younger brother. That was what the kiss was for. She's fallen for him ridiculously fast and with almost no development.

I thought the wishing was not consistent. A wish to destroy the whole world only destroys one shed; how does that work?

I can't remember if it is from this site, it may be from some comments, but I liked the theory that the wishes are granted in a way that gives the appearance, or at least only makes it true to the person who made the wish, and perhaps people around them. The wishes have limits in that it is not spoiler[strong enough to destroy the world, instead destroying the building which was the world to her at that moment, and Tsukiko's wish being centred around the residence. And crudely taking or adding habits to people instead of genuinely improving them].

Episode 8
Oh so the Azusa crisis. What else is new..

KICK. Oh that's new. So I see that there's a new character from this series making her debut in a rather dynamic way. spoiler[This Emi girl is kinda cute but I find her somewhat annoying. ONIIIICHAN.]

So there's this spoiler[new statue that can grand wishes too huh. I guess that means more trouble or maybe fun]. Anyways, this Emi girl sure has a lot of mysteries...
