And the final exam has begun. And it is awesome. It’s a lot shorter than the second exam, but I love how it ended up: it’s just an interview by real astronauts, to see whether they would trust their lives with the new candidates. It’s so simple, yet it brings out the best of the characters.
We also got to see reaffirmed once more that Mutta is an idiot, but the creators did it in such a hilarious way that it’s impossible not to love. I mean, first of all the muscle ache hits home so much: after training really hard you only start to feel it after two days, rather than one. Furthermore, this was the first time in which I saw an anime deal with muscle ache for as far as I can remember, let alone with such detail.
And then there was this stupid part of his that started drinking, right at the wrong moment. Oh god. I was expecting him to say all sorts of embarrassing stuff, but Mutta actually turned out to be quite an interesting character when drunk. It’s his very observant side that really pops up when tipsy. And his incredibly stubborn side. That ending wsa glorious, in which he just stood right in front of Azuma. It also was another one of this series’ very annoying cliff-hangers. Waiting another week for that is going to be really hard!!
Rating: 6/8 (Awesome)
I kept thinking how Psgels does to watch this show so late when he loves this it so much.I totally can’t, I have to watch Uchuu Kyoudai asap! XD
Really, Mutta is so lovable, he’s truly an amazing character! <3
The higlights of the episodes:
Chair. I think I laughed harder at this than anything else in the series. I was so ready to think Nanba would notice the screw and it would mess him up again or it’d complicated him getting up or something. But then… yeah… I almost fell out of my own desk chair. XDDD
Azuma. Cliffhanger. Urk! I so want to see how Nanba reacts! The preview is not enough for me! e_e;;;
On that note, Nanba seems to get some guts when he drinks. O.o
This has been getting much better recently – as in the plot has moved faster than a snail! I am glad I didn’t drop this though; these past two episodes have been some of the best in a long time.
“Ah. Azuma-san. There you are” :D:D:D:D
