MM! (Episode 7):

Everyone is at a beach enjoying the water, but Mio has Tarou under water where sharks have been spotted. After having no luck with that, Mio starts using crabs against him and it fails too. Next is smash the watermelon, and Yuuno beats the hell out of him. Yumi begins hitting on Tatsukichi, while Tarou and Yuuno enjoy themselves out on the raft.  Suddenly a huge metal shark carries them off. Nao comes out of its mouth. She says Tarou will play with her, but Yuuno argues with her. Nao wants to play house and brings out a play house. Nao and Yuuno argue over who will be his wife, and Yuuno wins at Rock, Paper, Scissors. Nao ends up playing his mistress. After some arguing, the rest of the group arrives. They all end up playing one of Tarou’s loves except Yumi. Nao drinks something that makes her grow into a mature woman. Himura arrives and begins attacking them. They put the hentai belt on Tarou and then beat him up. He goes into battle with Himura, and defeats him quickly. Everyone is at the festival that night, and Yuuno treats Tarou to cotton candy.

This episode was all over the place. It tried to have sweet moments and humorous ones, but it became too jumbled. It lacked structure and felt extremely rushed. I hope they don’t too many more episodes like this. The one highlight was Yuuno bragging about everything she has done with Tarou.

Oreimo (Episode 7):

Kyousuke arrives home and finds Kuroneko sitting there. She is there to watch Meruru with Kirino. He finds out they had an argument over writing a novel. He finds Kirino locked in her room and playing eroge. He has the same exact conversation with Kirino as he did with Kuroneko. Saori calls and he puts her on speaker phone for the screening.  As Meruru starts, Kirino gets into it. Kuroneko criticizes the show, and Kirino argues with her about it. The next day Kyousuke comes home to an angry Kirino, because he was looking at porn on her laptop. She hands him her latest novel, and then tells him it might be published. They go out to the city for research, and wants him to get hit by a car. He declines with much enthusiasm. While shopping for a ring, she slips and says its natural to want to receive it from the person you love. He doesn’t seem to get it. He ends up buying her heart-shaped earrings. He begins to insult her writing, and suddenly she spills water on herself. They end up at a hotel, and Kirino is taking a shower to warm up. Manami calls and Kirino comes out of the shower. He asks her to put on clothes, and she says he is disgusting for fantasizing about her. They leave and head for another place.

Kirino letting it slip that she loves her brother was cute. Of course Kyousuke completely misses it. I liked that we got more of Kuroneko as well, and it is always fun to watch her and Kirino argue. The impressions they did of each other were also excellent. The ending left me wondering what happens next.

Samurai Girls (Episode 7):

Naoe shows up and before she can speak, everyone insults her. She says she will now be staying with them. Mune agrees on letting her stay and Jubei is happy. Sanada shows everyone what she found in Yoshihiko’s files. She plays an audio file that has a strange voice. Sanada points out it is speaking Latin. It is gospel of a forbidden heathenism. Hanzo thinks back to the day she met Princess Sen. Hanzo is questioning her worth to Princess Sen. Jubei joins Hanzo in the bath later. Jubei tells her it is more fun with everyone around. After the bath, they are attacked by an invisible monster. Mune shows up and they hear Matabei scream. Sanada has set up a spell, and is injured herself. They realize the princess is alone, and Hanzo gets there in time to save her. They believe the monster is coming back, and when Sen attacks, it is actually Naoe. Suddenly the monster reappears, and Sen protects Naoe. Mune realizes they can see it in the rain, so they face it outside. Sen tells Hanzo to kiss Mune, as she will be the only one to defeat it. She pushes him away, and it stops raining, so the monster is only visible to Hanzo again. Hanzo manages to capture the monster, but with herself trapped. Naoe splashes water on it with her attack, and Sen defeats the monster. She tells Hanzo she would not have her as a friend if she sacrificed herself.

I’ve come to realize this show has a lot more humor than action, and I enjoy it that way. I laughed a lot, and the part where they were fighting the monster was a lot of fun to watch. The part with Sen and Hanzo at the end was touching, and as we see more and more, Sen does have a heart.

Panty and Stocking (Episode 7):

Part 1 – Transhomers

Brief is asking Garterbelt to end the fighting between Panty and Stocking, when two asteroids hit. A robot named Masculine Surprise steps out, and then another named Femitron arrives. Stocking eats Femitron’s heart and turns into a robot, so Panty eats Surprise’s. They create fellow robots out of furniture. They begin fighting over the mansion. Panty retaliates after Stocking sends a spy to blow up while Panty has sex with him. A major battle ensues. Brief awakes and tells the the two original robots their fight is wrong. They agree, and vow to destroy humans. The two alien robots become one large Ghost.  The girls transform and eliminate the Ghost.

Part 2 – The Stripping

Garterbelt is telling the girls they are racking up too many bills, so the girls say they will make money. The girls end up doing various tasks to make money, but keep failing. The girls go to a casino and start winning immediately. They are escorted to a private table in the back, and we see Scanty and Kneesocks working to take all of the earth’s money. They realize Panty and Stocking are in the casino. Kneesocks becomes the dealer and the girls suddenly begin losing until their money and clothes are gone. They win everything after Panty sneezes and knocks the ball into the 7 spot. A ghost falls out of the shoot sucking up the money, which they destroy. The demon sisters get away by car.

The Transformers spoof was hilarious. I loved seeing them parody the characters, and when Panty had sex with another robot, I about fell out of my chair. The second part was great as well, and helped pushed the rivalry with Scanty and Kneesocks.
