Sumire's got herself a push up bra!!!

Why are there no caps of Rokkaku, the loveable hippie school who eat magic mushroom oysters and actually like tennis? Because, like the Hyotei arc I was too busy actually enjoying it to write down caps. Oh well. If this particularly bothers anyone, let me know and I'll watch Rokkaku again! But you see... then came TRAINING CAMP.

Haw haw haw. *snorts*

This opening is far too pokemon-esque for my liking.


Oishi has a thing with pregnant women
Is the principal... INUI'S DAD? (they're both mad as snakes...)


CHARACTER ANALYSIS TIME
Fuji has always been a mysterious one, but we know this for sure- he most certainly is not a genuinely nice, lovely, gentle thing- he is a sadist (proven earlier in conversation with Momo) and usually is only motivated to do things for his own benefit (ala billiards episode).
Now what other possible reason could there be for Fuji
1.) wagging class
2.) buying flowers
3.) requesting grip tape
4.) getting lost in the rain to visit Tachibana other than love? (Loneliness, maybe?)
And look at how comfy Tachibana is. As if he would ever sit like that in front of his team members. And he chatted as though they'd been long friends... (though as far as I know they'd only met a few times.)
And Fuji was terribly secretive about it... hmmmmmmm~! AFFAIR!

And thus began.

 

 

What an awesome car. :)

Oh training camp.

Oh training camp. (Just one more second and it wouldn't have been a kids show)
Oh TRAINING CAMP!

Oh PLEASE DO!
Now this is curious. Out of everywhere in that massive bath, Ryoma chooses to sit awfully close to...
He could have sat between Fuji and Oishi, but nooo....
(maybe that was too exciting a prospect... for me at any rate)

Is this closeup entirely neccessary?
He should have gone to Rokkaku... with the other tree huggers ^^
(Also - interesting prospect. Yamato had stubble when he was captain back in his third year- which prompts the question- do Seigaku Regulars SHAVE??)

SO a loving paternal glance

Which leads me to...



 

 

And I had always seen Fuji and Oishi portrayed as a bit stand-offish, but the canon evidence is so much more for some quiet friendship...
*stirs seigaku soup*

 

Remember Jesse & James of Team Rocket?
And their mass UST? And how every time they were scared they'd hug eachother passionately?
Well. Sakuno seems to be trying to push Frankenstein off, but the other two...



"Stop pushing Eiji-senpai!"
(Not like that!)
Momo doesn't want to take his chances on leaving Echizen alone with a girl...



Chez Atobe's love shack cottage mansion


"We should make Fuji take some Mylanta or something..."

Oh Atobe.
I do believe the story was that I was laughing so hard the neighbors became concerned...


Eyeliner! Kabaji
We know Oishi loves Australian formation, but only we get this particular angle

Character Analysis Time:


I think Kabaji might be evil. For a start, he was mocking Eiji which shows either a desire to irritate Eiji, or to put him off his game to win! Which is an evil tactic- by pretending to be stupid Kabaji manages to get pity from the rest of Hyoutei, wheedle his way up to Atobe's side and weird out people during matches! EVIL! KABAJI!

You'll believe me when the rest of Hyoutei start disappearing one by one...

OMG HE ACTUALLY SAID SOMETHING THAT WASN'T "USS"

 


Frog and big fat toad = OTP!
(Oh no! Tadpole imPregnation!)

New ending- seriously disappointing. Forgetting Eiji's poo-hat, why is a majority of it twirling carnations, and... is that a rose I spy in there?
They might as well just DO it and make it a BL anime, really...
