Popotan 9

After the filler in 8, we're back to the story. Definitely the best episode so far in Popotan, this one is in some ways a replay of an earlier episode. The mansion has moved once again in place (and time), this time to the same place where Mai met Konami in episode 2... but 40 years later. Mai sees Konami's daugher, Mai. Yes, that's her name. Konami named her after Mai since she was her best friend. But Mai (Konami's daughter) hates the name because Mai (the popotan Mai) broke her promise to Konami and didn't come back... the bishie guy shows up again and tries to explain to Mai what she's done (kinda something like the Prime Directive from Star Trek. That's the first thing that came to mind) but she doesn't fully understand until the heartbreak at the end of the episode. Man, things have gotten serious. Wonder if they'll stay that way?

And in case you were wondering.. plenty of bath scenes for y'all in this episode, of course. Mii doesn't do her little "check" thing like she did last time, though (I know some of y'all are disappointed, ne?). But believe you me, after reading Mii's character profile for the Popotan game on the website that's nothin' at all. Anyways, going to a different note... Unagi, you can't slack off for the next episode previews! She was washing her tail and forgot about it. The episode preview is important, you know! Maybe she'll do a better job next time ;)

Sea Slugs! is up to episode 8 now. They've blogged the 2 episodes I didn't do since I slacked off (6 & 7) if you want to read more about those.
