Anime in Focus: School Days episode 7


<-Previous Episode

Today’s review brought to you by the FREAKING ZOMBIE CAFÉ!

Now serving freshly baked brains!

This episode isn’t nearly as interesting as the last one. I will admit, this show’s been heating up a lot, so it’s REALLY hard to keep up with the pace.

In this episode, Katsura is deluding herself into believing that she is still dating Itou, despite him and Saionji mostly ignoring her. Itou still lacks the spine to properly dump her.

This episode shows us how unattractive a harem lead really is. Itou has no spinal column, which prevents him from stopping Saionji’s friend Setsuna from pushing him around. He still won’t admit to anybody but Saionji that he’s done with Katsura, and sits by and watches while Katsura’s classmates make fun of her for being loyal to him. On one hand, it’s really ensickening to watch, but on the other, it’s fun to see the usual laws of harem anime get inverted. It is both delicious and amuses me

Instead of having two girls fawning over one guy and still being friends for some reason, Saionji and Katsura stopped hanging out over this fiasco. Not once do we hear them act like their fine with him hanging around the other girl. I like this because of how much sense this course of action makes.

Oh yeah, in this episode we see Saionji in an awesome maid outfit.
