Hey this time the story was actually somewhat interesting!

Somewhat.

But first.... wut

One of my favorite things is when people laugh when they’re not supposed to, but they leave it in there anyway.

Ripopo agrees.

Also there’s some man cosplay.

One thing I find funny is that when they dress up like guys, they still look like girls. That says a lot about Japanese guys, lol.

I’m not gay though. I’m just saying.

The premise of this story is that Sayaka and Milky switch bodies due to the magic of the Daruma doll. Unfortunately, instead of Milky pretending to be Sayaka she really just acts like an angry Milky.

Sayaka, on the other hand, plays it a lot better. I wouldn't call it great, but compared to Milky...

And there’s some hilarity when they try to recombine themselves.

Ouch.

Ouch.

First oogiri section is about doing a boke at a haunted house. I was already chuckling when they zoomed in on Ripopo. I still remember that last Challenge 48… she was in the haunted house for like 6 hours, haha.

Keila does not look or act her age at all. She kinda did 2 years ago though.

So, usually when someone does a boke, Gotou does tsukkomi with an explanation. For example, with Ripopo she was like “I’m so jealous that you guys are a couple,” so Gotou would say “What kind of ghost looks at people like that?”

When Milky did her thing (which actually wasn’t that funny) where she fell in love with the ghost, Gotou tsukkomi’d with “You can’t even see their face, they’re supposed to be in disguise.”

Milky breaks the fourth wall and says "Well, yeah, it's just a boke."

I’m not sure what to think about that. I kinda wanna get angry but it’s also soooooooo tennen. But it’s season 2 so it’s kinda strange timing to tennen.

Shuu says that the person looks like Nana: like an old lady.

To which Gotou gladly hands over the fan...

And then Milky comes out and does her silly Nana impression before she gets a beatdown with the fan.

Gotou: “In terms of the comedy world, you 3 are all dead already.”

Maachun busts out the tour guide impression again.

Sayaka responds with a tour guide impression of her own. Except not from the tour guide's perspective, but from the person entering the haunted house.

We leave off with Gotou ending the segment, but not before Nana gets mad at not being called and forcing her way through to do her own.

Gotou's reaction to this is priceless.

She still fails, though.

And then they do this weird scary thing together, haha

Honestly, the Nana/Gotou chemistry is top notch. There’s something about Gotou that brings out the best in Nana. If they had a radio show it’d be the radio show ever.

Story continues when they find directions to summon spirits to recombine them and they do some weird dance and crap.

There’s almost a repeat accident when Iwao bumps into Milky and they switch bodies…

Iwao's Milky impersonation is the best though.

Come to think of it, there hasn’t been that much Iwao in the show lately. He’s been a lot of fun in those sections where he makes NMB tsukkomi him.

The manzai this time was actually decent.

Kanakichi’s tsukkomi was actually really well done, and Momoka’s a lot more natural as boke than the others. Then throw in creepy Ripopo and you have yourself a team! That was actually pretty surprising, but I think that tossing in Ripopo to be opposite the hyperactive Momoka was definitely a great idea.

We end with previews of the dance PV of Bokura no Eureka and more Anchu outtakes.

For some reason I like the dance PV. The dance seems pretty clean and they seem pretty synched up well. The dance also seems made for swimsuits… they did perform a seifuku version on Manabu-kun and something seemed off.

I still don’t like the song though. To be honest I’m liking the singing less and less. It’s actually… quite bad. I’m also confused at how everyone is in swimsuits but their skin is really white and pale except for Airi. It’s like their first time going outside or something, haha.

Also when they say Eureka I think of this:
