Heh, going to amerika to get shot ^^

Osaka cracks me up just about every time she says something. That bit about Chiyo being as good as dead in America was pretty funny.

Yeah, it wouldn't have been so bad for Kaorin if she had been put in Kurosawa's homeroom. She'd still have been separated from Sakaki most of the time, but at least... y'know...

"She is a bad person!"

Yukari needs to change her chalk; it's not writing anything. But it's just as well; it looks like she's trying to make the world's most complex asterisk.

"Hapi basde, heh?"

Hmm. Looks like the ICPO, a.k.a Interpol, is not the same thing as the International Police, according to the Wikipedia article.

Chiyo's right, only a natural-born citizen of the United States can become its President. (Not to mention they'd have to wait more than 20 years for her to be eligible...)

Heh, I might actually go for it if it were "100% beef, all the way"...

Tomo-chan... weren't meatballs one of your top three not so very long ago?

And liking banana = baka? What?

Yeah, I think their appearance was intentional. I've seen it pointed out that there's Miruchi and Minamo, and Yuka and Yukari.

And here we see a rare instance of Sakaki seeing a cat and not trying to pet it. :)

Well, like I said, he donates to charity, picks up litter, and is a good teacher, when it comes down to actually teaching. It's just that... well...

Interpol was founded as ICPC (International Criminal Police Commission). But, it does use the ICPO abbreviation (International Criminal Police Organization). HQ is in Lyon, France.

But, yeah International Police is different. It's for war-torn countries.

Anyhow, it can be a bit confusing at times.

I love it when Tomo-chan compares herself to Fujiko Mine and the "Empress of Pop" Ayu (Ayumi Hamasaki). :) In the manga she is a fan of singer, Ryoko Hirosue.

Yeah, because she can say "Lupin!", uh, presumably like Fujiko does? I haven't seen Lupin III, so I'm just guessing, here.

I am led to understand that "Ayu" is Hamasaki Ayumi, a singer, songwriter, and actress who is from, and famous in, Japan.

wow osaka is more negative than i thought, and she thinks really far outside the box. lol thats one of the many things that make her character funny IMO

heh sakaki and osaka looked like if they where really high on acid - with their daydreams and interpretations about chiyo (and her father)

Hilarious episode and Kimurin's Happy Birthday song was much worse than Yukari's... but they were both nerve deadening... lulz. The best part imo had to be Osaka's "BANG!!!", lol.

Oh no Kaori got transferred to Kimura's class, and bullied into becoming the class representative!

I LOLed when YUkari was bitter at Nyamo because her class remembered to give her birthday present. And Kimurin! XD

Episode that always manages to entertain, from the beginning with Tomo and Yomi posegue and then with Osaka and Chiyo! Mention for the teacher Yukari, Nyamo, Sasaki and Kaorin! Little recognition for Kimura and his Waifu!

Shoot, now Tomo and Kagura look similar again.
I feel like we always know so little about Yomi sometimes, but we don't actually know much about anyone in depth to be honest.

I love how this show is covering all three years, can't wait for sports and cultural festival. The last episode will probably be a sad one, tho.

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron

Best here? OFC KIMURIN AND KAORIN, BEST COUPLE IN DA HELL!

Seriously, tho, those bastard creep, never missed her chance to be annoying. I mean, wth with dat birthday song? Blessed Kaorin innocent souls for her sin, 1 year full of shit with that psycho teacher!

Yeah, third class, last year. I feel old watching this series, even if i finish this within a day. Yeah, the hype really blasted til its end. Such a great impression, and well performed direction. Im really satisfied.

Again, a hilarious episode comes from many girls activity. Tomo gave a much hype being a stupid tomboy. Osoka, as usual, being a slow poke airheaded girl with less effort on her behaviour, its normal. Sakaki fetishes never dissapointed. Chiyo chan never failed to be adorable, yeah, i hope you can go fuck America! Yomi, Kagura? I believe you can greet many new things! Thats it for this episode. More or less, really fun to watch this episode.

This was a textbook example episode of Azumanga Daioh traumatising the viewer, then administering them with wholesome or comedic therapy, before proceeding to traumatise them again and let the cycle continue.

On the subject of career paths. With poor Kaorin being subjected to Kimura for her 3rd year, I suspect she'll end up in a mental institution from having to deal with him all year, or a prison because he finally made her crack and she killed him :P

Seriously; Kimura's 'Happy Birthday' song was the stuff of nightmares :S

Yukari was so pissed off because she she didn't get a present, hehe. Well, I'm they gave her a handbag after all.

Those little Chuyo-chans were adorable. :3

Poor Kaori... :( This was so heartbreaking moment. I feel sorry for her. She really really likes Sakaki. <3

"Kimurin's and Kaorin's flower garden"

Ok. That was a little creepy. Kimura did it again. Kaori's reaction was priceless. "Good points are just... Good points are just... Like hell I can find any!" x3

We kept Tomo but ditched Kaorin. The betrayal and homophobia.

Though Tomo saying she was growing her hair out to be like Fujiko, was probably the first time I've related to this girl at all.

"But it's even rougher for people already in the work force. So, you better not come looking for pity." The rawest Yukari line thus far.

@PeanutSteak Maybe chiyo grew up so fast she outpaced even nyamo and yukari when they were in grade school
