The good about this episode is that their situation finally got solved, when it turns out that the annoying landlady was just a bitter single in her 30s. Well, it’s hard to like her, and to approve of her actions. Then again, it’s not like I don’t know what it feels to be almost 30 (I’m 26) and single, but well, let’s leave it at that! Also, she wants Hina, which makes it the nth character in this show who is a lolicon. But the lolicon I approve of the most is Raika-san. She’s like too awesome! I mean, that deadpan face of hers when pointing out the embarrassing things others do or say (especially Yuuta), yet that really caring and sweet attitude. I’m sorry Sora, but I buy Yuuta’s fantasy of Raika being the mother and you the daughters.

Jokes (?) aside, this is precisely what I was looking forward to since the very beginning: Sora meeting Raika-san, Sora getting totally jealous, Sora worrying she’s no match for Raika’s nikus and skills (although somehow Sora seems oblivious to the fact that Raika is a weirdo, although being a wierdo is actually an important charming point). Even better, Raika is a minicon of sorts too and totally likes Sora, while Miu, being the precocious girl she is, enjoys watching the “battlefield”, perfectly aware of what’s going on. Meanwhile, Raika seems to be falling in love -in her own way- with Yuuta, while oitan is not only too busy with part time jobs, now they are being evicted by a certain bitch of a landlady who seems to hate lolis, apart from being a stalker, no matter how much of a landlady she is.

Papa Kiki is starting to grow on me, now that it’s clear that it’s not going to be something too emo or anything, and this episode in particular was heartwarming enough, with the girls going back to their parents’ house to retrieve some valuable items they had left behind, which of course was bound to bring back certain bittersweet memories, with the image of the house empty, dark and without electricity being powerful enough.

I’ll be honest here, this episode was only mildly entertaining to me. Any regular reader will know that drama is not my cup of tea, but I also understand that the premise of the show needs this type of episode. It would have been most unnatural if suddenly they were all a happy “family” living in Yuuta’s cramped apartment as if nothing had happened.
