K-ON 13 (END): So it was Written…
June 28th, 2009
It seems that Ritsu got the best plot thread this time around.
So it’s finally over and it seems this time the atmosphere was suitably muted, though not much music was made, but instead I suppose that they did gel a bit more as friends. Yui being Yui was pretty standard with her antics and wanting weird food for a hot pot. Mugi-chan got a job, Azu-nyan baby sat a kitten, and Mio went off to write another song, but it seems that Ritsu was the special one this time around who thought that she had a love letter on her hands…though it turns out that they were “lyrics” sent to Ritsu by Mio. As Ritsu is not he sharpest knife in the drawer I suppose she did not pick up on how she was the one Mio was writing about. It was odd seeing another side of Ristu that haddn’t really come out before, this time she was actually concious of how she looked and we meet one member of her family, the only thing is I am not sure why this was the time to do all that. Mugi-chan might not be the best cashier in the world I respect that she is willing to work a day in her life, if not longer. Azu-nayn was woefully unprepared to take care of a kitten, and should have at least asked for food, and the number for the veterinarian. Still having seen college girls buy a puppy as a single unit I suppose the logistics involved with a pet was not much of a consideration. I did feel that Sawa-chan was sorely missing from this episode as she should have been dateless and still looking to harass her charges…
Seriously a dog is better.
Overall it wasn’t the best series EVAR, but it was enjoyable even if the music did not feature as prominently as I had initially hoped. I suppose as a slice of life thing it works as a tale of a club of four and later five girls and their very talented Teacher Advisor. To be sure there was lots of moe fodder to be had, but in the end it was kind of the point even if it got excessive at times. In the end I can only really recommend it for yuri subtext, moe, and some moments of comedy. On that level it does succeed, but it is hardly ground breaking.
Giving you mouth to mouth…
I see Mugi-chan’s habbits are starting to rub off on the rest as well…
I guess Ritsu also gets maidenly feelings too.
Some nothing…
Mugi-chan could sense that Ritsu might fall…
Mio should have confessed at this point.
Oh look a job!
Like I said cats suck.
She works hard for the money…
Kind of scary but I do like those twin tails…
Wow so there is someone who can do worse than British cuisine…
I can see why Ritsu would rather have Ui…
If only she changed up her hair every now and then…
For once I agree with Yui.
It’s so fun to watch.
It’s good to be the center of attention, yes?
If only the adoring public could verify that…
If only I could reach into the screen.
I bet she is…
That sounds pretty damn intimate.
I can see where she drew her insipiration from…
Mio must be curious then…
I think Mio meant from a different aspect probably from the vertical…
“Lyrics” must be code for yuri confession, duly noted.
Well what say you?
It was even hand written…as they say, it is written.
