「運動会！（ひねりも何もないですね）」 (Undoukai! (Hinerimo Naidesune)
"Sports Festival! (There's No Twist or Anything)"
Just like the episode title promised, there weren't any surprises this week and instead we were given exactly what we were promised -- an episode full of cute familial moments.

「この不浄な温泉街に女神を！」 (Kono Fujouna Onsen Machi ni Megami o!)
"A Goddess for This Corrupt Hot Springs Town!"
Poor Aqua. She deserves every moment of this. Hah!

「牙を剥く優美な黒蛇」 (Kiba o Muku Yūbi na Kuro Hebi)
"A Graceful Black Adder Bears Its Fangs"
It's like, instead of the society Stonemasons looking out for each other we have a cabal of bread-lovers.

「ブライトンベリーアンデッド紀行」 (Buraitonberīandeddo kikō)
"Brightonberry Undead Travelogue"
Harry Potter with zombies will probably sell pretty well. Actually, I'm pretty sure somebody already wrote that.

"The Ideal World"

「Chapter.41 京都(2) / Chapter.42 京都(3)」 (Chapter.41 Kyouto(2) / Chapter.42 Kyouto(3))
"Chapter.41 Kyoto(2) / Chapter.42 Kyoto(3)"
This episode felt like a slightly uncomfortable kick to the face.

「亜人ちゃんは試したい」 (Demi-chan wa Tameshita)
"Demi-chan Wants To Try"
This may have been the best Satou-sensei episode to date.

「桃乃今日子 第1章 カテイブ」 (Touno Kyouko dai 1-shou - Kateibu)
"Touno Kyouko Chapter 1 - Home Ec Club"
There is no pivot. There will never be a pivot. This is what Seiren is.

「雪中松柏」 (Secchu Shouhaku)
"Through Thick and Thin"
While we're still waiting for our juicy, juicy payout in the form of an amazing climax to this whole Kyoto tomfoolery, this week's episode did a fantastic job at upping the ante.
