"With This and That, The (Stupid) Couple"
And just when I was beginning to wonder where the Mio loving was, we get hit with this date episode centered around Mio.

(Kizuna to Yakusoku)
"Bonds and Promises"
With more mention of The School and the kids who want to be reunited with one another, the appearance of Shadow-Mirror's leader, Vindel Mauser (Umezu Hideyuki), alongside his top researcher and head of the W-Numbers, Lemon Browning (Mizutani Yuuko), finally gave us faces to some of the antagonists in this series.

Sora no Otoshimono Forte – 04
So this is what I was seeing in the opening sequence. It's the abominable Sohara snowman!
1.4 (Shitou! Reika 1.4 do no Onsen (Kassen))
"Life and Death! The -1.4C Hot Spring (Battle)"
Last week was a pro wrestling debacle and this week is a snowball fight pitting the guys against the girls. Mikako doesn't look like she's grown tired of messing around with Astraea just yet, but unfortunately the same can't be said about being Eishirou's New World Discovery assistant.

"Time and Key"
After this episode I will never forget just how hard it is to be a mangaka. That and I hope I never look like this, ever.

I laughed, I cried, and hurriedly told a friend to watch PSG episode 4 as soon as possible.

(Neko Shounen)
"Catboy"
Continuing on from last week, this whole student & teacher relationship thing started to feel a little overplayed (except I love hearing Sugita Tomokazu, so I don't mind). At least, thats what I thought until a stark (but hilarious) reality check comes tumbling in and destroys all of Hotoris teacher loving affection. What would you expect a teacher to say if you asked them, Did you happen to fall for me? Yeah, I didn't think of anything positive either. Plus, new character this week!

(Nanasaki Ai-hen Saishuushou - Kokuhaku)
"Nanasaki Ai Final Chapter - Confession"
Between Ai and Junichi running the girls swim club's oden booth and Itou Kanae walking away with the Miss Santa championship because Haruka was a no-show, the founder's festival as a whole didn't quite have much relationship-related development in it. The two of them were alone together, but too busy serving the endless line of customers that the other members of the swim team were bringing in.

(Doraivu Mai Kaa / Paatii wa Sono Mama ni)
"Drive My Car / A Party Like That"
So it turns out the secret to dancing (and how everything in the world works) is the infamous Konami Code, or at least that's what any avid gamer will probably conclude. Between that and the big Zaku head bicycle carriage, I wasn't sure what made me chuckle more like a big geek, but watching Keima work his magic on the surprisingly poor Mio as well as Elise whine about not being able to wear a cute outfit made this episode one to remember.
