Saint October 06 - More Party Members!

After the sudden introduction at the end of episode 5, Kotono and Natsuki attempt to befriend the strong, agile, and downright feral Misaki Hijiri. Reverse sends the kung fu chick equivalent of Air Man after them, but her villainy is no match for the powers of Elegant Gothic Lolitas.

Lovely Idol 05 - Our Fabulous Swimsuit Issue

Here we have the aspiring idols of Lovedol Gen-3 heading to the beach for a commercial shoot, proving that all you need to succeed is hard work, talent, and connections with already-established idols. Miu Nekoya may be the best dancer of the bunch, but she's also the biggest diva, with disastrous results. Oh, and this episode also features tons of insert karaoke. Luckily, it's all the same song, but it still bloated the script to 450+ lines.

Saint October 05 - I Summon Iron Chef Arcana!

Sorry for the now-expected delays, but I had a few other things to do involving house painting and my imouto getting married. And releasing a few Yes! Pretty Cure 5 episodes, and going out of town (which for me means no Internet) for the weekend. At any rate, this fifth episode of Saint October has Natsuki and Kotono confronting an old enemy and meeting a possible new ally. There's also some feline chaos and dessert disagreements along the way. And it's very Saint-October-esque to cut away to a random cooking segment, as seen above.

Lovely Idol 04 - Koe de Oshigoto!

I'm sure the Japanese voice acting realm is competitive enough that it doesn't need random idols stepping into it, but that's what we have here in this episode. And with Tomohiro out sick, Ruri decides to channel Ritsuko Akizuki and play "Manager for a Day." Some things go wrong, some things go right, and it's mostly cuteness all around. This time, I did notice some little touches, like how Mai primps herself for the camera when there is no camera.
