Hello everyone,
Here we are to talk about the fifth episode of the anime series Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai that with a nice combination of fanservice, comedy and a bit of plot advancement is keeping us interested and eager to watch more episodes.
I think much of the charm and interest in this series is due the characters that are really able to shine through the many little stories dedicated to each one of them.
This fragmentation does not stop the advancement of the main plot that seems to be revolving more and more around Yozora and her past with Kodaka.
This episode is a dedicated to the loli pair of girls of Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai named Maria (teacher) and Kobato (actual sister of the protagonist) and her evolving relationships with our protagonist and between themselves.
Let's start with Maria! She's such an easy girl to please, our protagonist managed to get called Onii-chan just by making her some food. Her personality really resemble that of a child, maybe only a bit over-exaggerated for novelty sake.
I also liked how Kodaka was happy from being called Onii-chan, but kept his reserve during the whole scenes acting more like a brother than anything else.
Kobato on the other side is the classic jealous sister that is scared to get his brother stolen by the club members. I honestly can't think she's wrong to think so because a single guy in a club of pretty girls is a little...
This is, in the end, the main reason for which she decide to enter the club that is to observe and have more time with his brother!
It will be funny to see how the battles against Maria to gain Kodaka's attentions will proceed in the future!
Oh, Kobato is so cute, lovely and innocent! I knew it from before, but this scene clearly remarked the same idea more and more, especially if you pair her personality and looks with the voice of Kana Hanazawa!
I also liked how Sena is already all over her! I'm looking forward to the first "omochikaeri" attempt by Sena on Kobato. They would look great together as sisters!
Now the only question is what they'll do now that the main cast has been properly introduced. Friend-making for real? Or just more mindless comedy?
I'm extremely happy about Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai till now and I suggest to anyone who is still on the fence to give it a look. If you like comedies, this is a nice pick for you!
I'm looking forward to blog the future episodes as well!
See you soon,

P.S. Oh, by the way I liked the "MicroSoft" reference in this episode with the "LargeHard" sign on the gaming hardware.:P
