Poll: Azusa x Yui – Gallery

Well, the poll where I asked who the most fitting partner for Azusa is is already closed, and the winner is Yui. Mio finishes as runner-up.

I decided to ask about Azusa because well, I think a sempai/kouhai yuri relationship is pretty sweet, and personally I voted for Mio. I guess because they look almost like sisters or something, although I admit that Yui x Azusa has lots of chemistry. The more relcutant kouhai, Azusa, and the very playful, direct sempai, Yui, who seems to have a penchant for skinship.

Amagami SS – 08

It’s not difficult for Junichi and Kaoru to arrange to meet for a date on Christmas Eve. Kaoru comes heavy, wearing her lucky pantsu. She breaks the ice first. She can’t pretend they’re just buddies, leading a love-hate relationship. She’s in love with Junichi, and Junichi also confesses his feelings. Already as a couple, Kaoru misses her bus and Junichi takes her home. They even get into bed together, but alas, when Kaoru was taking the lead she falls asleep, to Junichi’s despair.

“Ore no imouto ga konna ni kawaii wake ga nai” volume 3 – (Part 3)

In Japan, Christmas Eve has a particular tradition associated with it: it’s the night for couples, and thus it’s no wonder that the ubiquitous love hotels are all booked. As Kirino is going to take a shower in a love hotel room, Kyousuke sits on the bed, pretty tense. “And don’t peek” says Kirino.

Ookami-san to shichinin no nakamatachi – 08

Ryouko, Ringo and Ryoushi face three evil terrorists, the three pig brothers. As the climax approaches, we shift our attention to Nezumi Chuutarou, the son of a distingushed family who is searching for a bride since he must get one by the time he turns 12, according to his family’s tradition. Accompanied by his butler, our heroes search for a candidate, although the butler’s sharp, yet accurate remarks, tend to anger the female members of the cast. Finally, common sense prevails and Chuutarou chooses his osananajimi—proving once again that the osananajimi flag is absolute. For some reason or other, Ringo gives Ryouko a French kiss.

“Ore no imouto ga konna ni kawaii wake ga nai” volume 3 – (Part 1)

The third volume of Oreimo begins with a monologue by Kyousuke who tells us that three months have elapsed since the events in the first volume and, despite all of this, his relationship with Kirino hasn’t changed one bit: he hates her and he’s sure she hates him as well. I have already said that this is actually pretty interesting, because until the very end of volume 6 and despite everything else he will continue to claim their relationship is really bad, that it hasn’t changed, and that they hate each other.
