We had a few days' worth of a timeskip. I guess the cast needed a bit to recuperate after the party.
Ahem, Meiya? What are you doing?
So, Meiya tries to do something herself for a change.
Please let there be less explosions this time.
Yes you are. And it's kinda adorable.
This is it! No more school - Takeru considers himself a free man (the fool). He finds a willing audience for his speech of freedom.
Less willing, too. Yuuko has no time for your delusions.
Come on Yuuko. Not everyone is willing to bend and outright abuse the rules as much as you do... right?
Oh boy. Time to once again - be afraid.
Very afraid.
The cast is packing up into the bus. With varying degrees of enthusiasm.
Mikoto, still living in your own private world? You are? Just checking.
It seems Meiya decided to pack less than a whole mansion just this one time.
Nevermind!
Yeah. Pretty much.
When Yuuko acts like that, you know something's up. I mean, of course something is up. It's Yuuko.
Huh, that wasn't too bad.
Of course the bus is run by the crazy (and awesome) driver and the crazy ninja maid. If the "Mitsurugi" sign on the sign was not clue enough.
Well, time for Takeru to enjoy the long trip, sitting next to his childhood friend since forever.
And by that I mean fall asleep. Good night!
On location, Takeru and Mikoto share a room for obvious reasons. Bro seems led by the nose...
Then another discovery is made.
Yes, Sumika. Don't let Takeru be a judgemental prick.
Ah, stereotypical Japanese hot springs entertainment - table tennis. And... bowling, apparently?
How bad can you be, Mikoto?
I don't think you're talking about bowling anymore.
At the amusement center...
You're in luck, Takeru! You get to indulge in your favorite hobby once again.
Meiya is already hooked, too.
For the sake of fair play, Sumika decides to take one for the team and stay behind. That, or she just wants more Let's Play.
Chizuru wants to back down, but the chance to defeat her ultimate nemesis is too tempting! So of course...
The two end up in one team.
Hey, that's a pretty good matchup actually, I wonder how will-
Of course.
Pink cat strong.
Let it be known that video games bring people together - even sworn enemies.
Then, something appears.
Yuuko knows what she's here for.
Worry? What do you imply, Marimo-chan?
Ah yes, the sacred anime cliche of peeking.
Also the two of you are the same age, you know.
At the men's part of the springs...
Mikoto has cold feet. Not literally. Hot springs, remember? Anyway if he stays away, why not go to him yourself Takeru?
Only a glimpse is caught before hot steam covers everything again.
Truly they are best friends for lyfe.
Yes, Takeru. That's totally what it is about.
Your power of observation is without equal.
After the bath, our band of misfits witnesses a wonderful sight:
What is it? A mouth-watering (and offscreen, so take my word for it) meal. Whom have we to thank for this feast?
The local 1% of course. No I don't mean Meiya. She's the 1% of the 1%.
Suddenly!
The usual troublemakers barge in.
Truly the stance of a mature adult.
That's all you have to know about Yuuko, in just one image. Okay, two if you count Tama.
And then...
It begins.
The tragedy strikes.
But we have no choice other than to live with the consequences.
Remember how last update I joked about everyone getting drunk and causing chaos?
It just happened, for real this time.
Yuuko of course adds to the fire to make sure the situation is interesting enough for her.
But don't worry, Takeru has the perfect solution for this disobedient crowd.
VIOLENCE
VIOLENCE is not working too well...
Guys, I think Mikoto might be dead.
But don't sweat the details, Marimo promptly ropes Takeru into serving drinks for her. What a responsible teacher.
Takeru is too slow, so time for plan B: Marimo serves herself.
This proves to be a mistake.
We're going chibi mode, that's how you can tell the situation is serious.
The horrifying origins and dark backstory of Marimo-chan.
But how to take the booze away from her?
Gentle verbal persuasion failed.
Time for force!
That didn't go exactly as planned.
On the other hand, it's nice to see that
someone tries to remain responsible in here. Even if that someone is Yuuko. And that's terrifying.
Oh dear.
One bastion of sanity (for a certain definition of sanity) yet remains. We're counting on you, Tsukuyomi!
Drunk Meiya does the most foolish thing imaginable - she tries to fight back.
Wrong move.
Remind me never to piss Tsukuyomi off.
As a side effect, everyone returned to normal!
Just kidding. Takeru still has the whole circus to deal with.
Good news, Mikoto's not dead. Bad news, no one competent
and sober is left in the room.
Just do whatever you want, you band of drunks.
Good night.
My thoughts so far:
Ha ha ha what. Hijinks are entering overcharge mode.
