This week on To Love-Ru we face body-snatching aliens, frog dissection, Saruyama dissection? and raging teenage hormones!


Summary


Talk about QUALITY.

One of Lala’s suitors, Ghi Bree, arrives on Earth at Rito’s high school. Ghi Bree takes upon the image of the principal and takes Haruna as hostage to call out Rito. After a bunch of Haruna fanservice and DBZ powering up by Ghi Bree, Rito manages to scare Ghi Bree into his original form. Lala flushes Ghi Bree (and his many wives and children) away in her toilet shaped teleporter and they all end up in Zastin’s bath. Haruna wakes up in the nurse’s office and Lala tells her that Rito was the one who saved her.


Impressions


Looks like some random alien you’d find in DBZ or something.

Not bad of an episode. With all that’s happened so far with the “new” plot, this one actually comes kind of close to the original. Of course, not everything was exactly like the original, but it was enjoyable nonetheless. Haruna fanservice was kind of nice although I’m not a big fan of tentacles or bondage. Saruyama and the principal’s masochism was a bit humorous as well… I never knew Saruyama had an outie. @_@

I always thought this part of the series was always interesting to see. Not only does it show Rito’s hidden courage that he shows when his friends are in danger, but it also shows you about Ghi Bree’s weakness. No matter how big or tough you can make yourself look, you’ll always act like your true self in the end.

Next episode, Ren/Run finally appear and Ren… is a boxer now? I don’t exactly remember that part being in the manga, but perhaps it will turn out okay.

This show still has hope, right?

@Leviathan: I think it still has some hope left. There’s still a lot more episodes and a lot of material they can work with. It’s just depends on if they want to use that material wisely or not. I have a decent feeling about the next episode aside turning Ren into a boxer. It might be amusing enough.
