It’s not a nice time to be an NMB fan. Not only did we lose Yui, but we just lost Hitomin. And AKB has Fuuchan and they still have Milky. くっそ野郎！
Then there’s BII not selling out.
Oh well. Let’s lighten up the mood with some Geinin.
Some mochi making ceremony that had punchlines to it
A new challenger has appeared!
The story is that Jounishi wants the owarai club to restore the laughter of her little sister, Kawakami Chihiro. The fun thing is that in real life, she does treat Chihiro as a little sister, which might be because of their similar looks. Chihiro’s nickname is Chihhii… which doesn’t really translate well in romanized characters. ちっひー looks much better.
There was some recurring joke about how everyone ignored Maachun.
Even Sayanee ignored her. Teehee~
First oogiri section was about a maid you’d kinda not want. Sayanee starts off with… a gag? What?
Evil Keicchi returns!
Even Ripopo wants to be like Sayaka.
There was a couple interesting exchanges. For example…
Milky accidentally raised her hand when it was Maachun’s turn.
She got a stern warning from Gotou not to do it. Definitely don’t do it. Never do it again. That is obviously an invitation to do it again, and then Gotou tsukkomi’d Milky for not doing it again.
I think this really shows Gotou’s comedy genius. Even when someone messes up their supposed role, he manages to still make it funny. And he still makes Milky look good for that mistake.
Maybe I’m not watching this show for NMB, I’m actually watching it for football hour. Hmmm…
In another exchange, Gotou was wondering whether he should pick Nana.
Gotou – “Are you sure you can do it?”
Nana – “Maybe.”
Gotou – “If it’s just ‘maybe’ then you probably can’t do it.”
Nana – “I can definitely do it.”
Gotou – “You sure?”
Nana – “Yes!”
Gotou – “In that case… Watanabe, it’s your turn!”
Nana – “wat”
At this point, Gotou chided Nana for not vocally protesting more, in which case…
Nana screaming “Oiiii” in a hilarious manner
Story continues by Nana being trouble with Manzai so Keicchi offers to help.
Unfortunately I understood nothing. I don’t think I’ve ever been this lost when it comes to Manzai.
The second oogiri section is about impersonations.
Sayaka with the “calm after the storm look” after a rollercoaster ride.
Maachun’s hilarious tour guide impersonation.
There was a part where Keicchi did a seaweed impersonation and she was so embarrassed that she quit midway through.
Chihhii followed up with the same thing! You can see Keicchi falling down in laughter.
It’s actually kind of cute to see her back up her senpai like that.
I dunno why but everyone made fun of Nana for bombing this joke…
Clamshell 1
Clamshell 2
Ripopo pulls out some comedy gold when she grabs the statue for some reason, and then…
I really didn’t see that coming.
The next episode preview looks like we’ll see Fuuchan again. It doesn’t look like we’ll have any weird bikini shoots where Nana and Maachun rub their asses together, but some weird fairy costume.
I thought I took a screenshot of Riichan. But that’s not Riichan.
