Ever since that sketch of Impz got out he’s been acting funny…

So Impz is feeling a bit sick and like some overly macho idiot he has refused medical treatment so he can spread his sickness far and wide in his glorious city state. Thus it falls upon me to take up Lovely Complex until he launches some sort of counter coup and takes this series back.

At any rate Risa is still trying her best to win chibi-Otani’s wee wittle heart. Otani is still sitting on the fence unsure of what to do around the tall hawt funny bombshell that is Risa. While this cluster fuck of a courtship continues Nobu-chan formulates her bare chest doctrine, a decent idea of being brutally forward wrapped up in a shameless statement . As time moves decidedly fast here it is yet again Christmas, and you know what that means Halo 3 baby Jesus’ birthday rabu rabu daytos and gift giving.

Risa gets drunk off what I assume is root beer since that makes me all bubbly and happy too. Nobu-chan pushes forth her grand scheme and the goes in to a fictitious spiel of how she met Nakao. Risa regrets rues and laments the fact that her love life is much more dramatic and a failure. In contrast to Chiharu and Nobu-chan both of which were blessed with a most boring, hence pleasant, relationship.

So the end result was a defeat for Otani in the All Hanshin Kyo-jin dodge ball finals. Not only did he challenge the champ, but she had a cart load of balls. As punishment Otani had to kissu his team mate.

Risa wants to do something special with Otani, but it ends up being all Hanshin Kyo-jin. Without Umibozu tickets it seems like a lost cause. However, Otani invites her to a Christmas party with his middle school basketball pals. Risa gets a bit mopey until Nobu-chan gives her a well deserved kick.

Knowing the Kanzaki is going to be there Risa gets motivated to crush Kanzaki and possess Otani. Again the peanut gallery writes off the possibility of them being a couple though Otani does mention that Risa is fun gal. After a bit of dodge ball using basketballs, we learn that Kanzaki and Otani cemented their relationship in one of the most hallowed places in anime. The gym store room.

Risa starts getting ideas and wonders what could have happened. Indeed I wondered what could have possibly transpired. Since Otani was allegedly always at a loss for words around Kanzaki; Risa dives deeper into depression as Otani is never shy around her. Cometh the moment cometh Nobu-chan who locks them both in, you guessed it, the gym store room.

Risa gives Otani her gift of gloves while he has nothing to offer in return, the nerve of that halfling. Nobu-chan opens the door to find…an all Hanshin Kyo-jin blowout. With the parting shot we see Kanzaki sitting alone on a bench like some lost puppy.

Risa’s love for Otani is like a truck, it rather run over Kanzaki than brake.

Impression : With the series drawing to a close I can’t help but feel that fourteen eps is far too short. Seiko and Haruka have barely made any appearance since their respective intro eps. While the series is not about them the fact that Kanzaki is really the only outside threat to Risa x Otani is a bit galling given that Haruka was supposed to dedicate himself to Risa as well. Granted that Hanshin Kyo-jin is funny I would like to have a bit of Seiko and Haruka havoc to go along with it.

Well I still wish to cheer Risa on during her slow steamrolling offensive to capture the chibi-heart of Otani. However since Kanazaki is coming back I wonder what kind of shit storm will come next because the next download is a bit slow.
