So Ritsu is a fan of Keith Moon, drummer of The Who?
And also coming soon is a new song from the HTT, "Honey Sweet Tea Time" with possibly Mugi doing a vocal solo!

And poor, poor mindless self-indulgent Sawako-sensei! :lol:

All in all, episode 4 was pretty good. It showed its roots from a 4-panel comic more than most episodes of the series due to the setup-punchline nature of the gags. Which is good for the people who read the manga as it means that they are adapting it fairly faithfully. And the animation was surprisingly better than usual.
Spoiler :
The first bit with Ui worked a bit better in the manga. Hearing Ui's voice kinda gave it away. Still, it was cute.

Although the Mio and Nodoka flashback/train bit worked much better.

It was much more amusing to hear Ritsu and Yui (badly) imitate the Kansai speech pattern. And then having Mugi (who's voiced by a real Kansai native) do it properly was the icing on the cake.

Why is Mugi checking out the pillows when the get to their room? :sweat:

I love how everybody suddenly drops when Sawako appears in their room. Busted.

It also amuses me that slowly but surely Sawako-sensei is losing her carefully crafted mature teacher image in the eyes the other students in the class. She's becoming more of a big-sister than a teacher-figure.
I guess the next episode is an anime original story? It looks interesting.

Bahaha Mugi snorted. XD

The only thing funnier then snorting is farting. Will Mugi fart next episode?! STAY TUNED TO FIND OUT!

04 was great.

Ok I like this sort of thing, schoolgirls being ordinary schoolgirls. Don't laugh, I watch anime for the same reasons people watch *&$#$%@ soap operas eh.

It was fun watching them behave in an ordinary fashion. And all the more enjoyable as unlike too many recent anime's, not once did anyone suddenly for no clear reason expose themselves all for just the shock of the nudity.

I also like the participation of Sawachan trying desperately to be a mature woman, and failing hehe.
Anime, one of the few things about the internet that doesn't make me hate the internet.

Episode 5 was a nice one featuring the cute 2nd year students Azusa, Ui and Jun.

Highlights:
Spoiler :
Why do the other girls have those giant eyebrows in Azusa's imagination?

Oh Jun, you have quite the imagination yourself! (Sadly, it's not far from the truth.)

Jun sitting in Mio's seat becoming cooler by osmosis and finding a special something...

Ui sitting in Yui's seat, soaking up her sister's aura.

A trip to the Jazz Club. Wow, they've got some membership! Unlike the Light Music Club, the members have to fight for play time.

Jun's a bit forgetful like a certain drummer. Join the Keion-bu Jun! You'd fit right in!

Azusa teaching the Jazz Club freshmen. You're so cool Azusa!

Holy crap, Ui's a good host. Scratch that, she's awesome.

Skull.

Apparently, Ui's knack at picking up new things quickly extends to baseball batting, too.

Not only can Ui play guitar, she also plays the keyboards/organ. Is there anything she can't do?

"Azu-nyan? We're lost right now." :lol:
Looks like we're back to manga material next episode.

Yeah 05 was nice for featuring some secondaries more.
