FAN RECAP

Half-baked rehash of the Beach and Baked Buns episodes.

5.6

By Angus_Mac, Feb 20, 2011

This is another Run the Gauntlet episode. Unfortunately, that means recycled gags as well. The funniest line was by Atsu, about who\'s responsible for Kaname, but even that had me finishing the line as it was being spoken. The challenge rounds between the Karate club and Sousuke were somewhat amusing. Then the episode climax relied on an old gag that reminded me of Ranma ½.

  Kaname: Um... Thanks for saving us!
  Tsubaki: Don't get the wrong idea. It's troubling when there is a ruckus behind my place of work. Or else I would not have helped dump-looking girls like you.
  Kaname: (Getting vexed) Is that so.
  Tsubaki: If you understand, get lost, woman.
  Kaname: (To herself) This guy is full of himself! (Holds her fist back) This person saved you... Patience, patience... Patience complete.
