Wow, this show fell pretty hard.  The entire episode revolves around Misaki and her crush on Noboru.  This of course, means there can’t possibly be any action and the only thing we really get out of it is some lame comedy.  Not to mention that it’s fantasy based comedy.  It seems Misaki is quite the scatterbrain and worries about everything before she even does it.  Probably half the episode is spent by her fantasizing over who Noboru really likes.

Essentially, the plot is thus.  Misaki wants to go to Noboru’s house to see what’s really going on there.  She does so by offering to bake a cake for them.  She goes over there and ends up learning how obsessive Kuu is and how clumsy Kou is.  At the end of the episode there’s about 10 seconds of action that shows the demons to Misaki again.  But no, we can’t let her see that, so we essentially have a reboot continuity when Kuu erases her memory again.  I can say this without any spoilers because if you’ve seen episode 3, you already knew something like this was going to happen if we had a Misaki-based episode.

Quit jerking me around.  This isn’t how a good anime series is written.  I was thinking that maybe this series could manage to balance story, comedy, action, and slice-of-life aspects.  But it’s pretty well shown here that it can’t.  There is no story or action, the slice-of-life aspect is just getting silly at this point, and the “comedy,” if you can call it that, is completely lame.  And it’s pretty well turned me off to the series right here.  I almost wish Kuu really could erase my memory…

Episode score: 2.5/10 cake buffets

Objectionable content: Innuendo.  I would actually venture to say there’s no violence in this episode.
