Ookami-san – 10
About freaking time the show tackles Ryoushi’s phobia with Saburou training him out of nowhere. Though I do suspect he’s not exactly on the good guys’ side as you can’t trust a dude wearing a Robin Hood hat you know? Not to mention he has spied on Ryoushi since the start of the show. I totally thought Saburou was a tom-boyish girl by the way for like one second, curse you Japan and your ambiguous character designs. He is a dude right? Oh dear …

Hinted back in episode six as the problem she has run away from, the story finally delves into Ringo’s dilemma. With much disappointment, it’s nowhere as compelling as Ryouko’s situation since well, Ringo did nothing to cause it, besides being born I suppose. I do understand Ringo’s guilt for her mother’s actions in which she partially blames herself, as she must feel terrible in kicking her half-sister out of the mansion and separating a daughter from her father.

Sadly this picture had nothing to do with this episode or otherwise this would have been the best of the series yet. What we got instead was something of a return to the regular light-hearted episode with its standard take-away message of the week. Heir to a large corporation, this week’s mission revolved around finding a young boy his bride. Luckily and what saves this episode from absolute boredom is that he is followed around by his insult-happy butler who just loves to point out all the terrible qualities of each candidate bride they come across.

This episode had the potential to suck, I’m glad it didn’t as the minor inconvenience of Jin and Ami’s date was quickly pushed to the side for some real character development.
I’m sorry but my mind is blown to the fact this whole incident between Ryouko and Shirou happened in middle school. Assault at 13 years old, are you kidding me? Can we please bump the ages up a bit so I don’t have to take what essentially is a preteen drama seriously?

What’s this? A good Ookami-san episode? Seems Ryouko’s sudden and surprise run in with Shirou has managed to revive painful memories between the two, Ryouko’s emotions derailed quite a bit. Ryoushi goes into detective mode to find out the dirt between them only to be shut down by Ringo shortly afterwards for trying to delve into Ryouko’s personal history without asking Ryouko directly instead. Bad, bad Ryoushi!
Ookami-san – 05
Ryoushi, Ryouko and company stop by at the rundown Onigashima High School to beat up on some delinquents. It’s good to see the group go on a mission not so flowery in design with nonsensical relationship problems that need solving. This mission involves nothing but beating hoodlums down to the ground with neko-neko gloves and a diplomatic exchange of friendly words thrown in for good measure.

Ryoushi gets a maid and under normal circumstances this would be a good predicament to be in, but our super shy hero proves otherwise.
I like the opening scene as our sunglass wearing and hooded Ryouko is sneaking out and about to retrieve a newly published girls’ romance novel out of all things. Truly something you wouldn’t expect out of her, but it opens and develops her character further since she has managed to keep up her tsundere personality intact thus far.
