Another week, another stalled episode. I mean, realistically, you didn’t expect m.3.3.w to keep up that 1-2 day release schedule forever, right? (I have received a kick in the face message from Saoen stating that we will be resuming speedsub-ish releases next week.)
In this episode, there is a lot of confusion, and male hormones acting up, — oh, and RAGE. There’s no real theme to the episode, and, in fact, I’m rewatching parts of the episode right now to recall what happened… hmm… well, there is some “character development,” and some “realisation” and some “bubbles” (okay, lots of bubbles)… oh, and Kurumi-chan <3.
Random Frostii K-On!-style random side commentary: man, Kazehaya is a wuss. Why doesn’t he just confess already (other than the whole, well, what would we do with the rest of the season business), instead of making backhanded butthurt remarks to Sadako and asking people if they think Sadako and he are “distant” or whatever? Then again, when I was in high school (which wasn’t *that* long ago), I was a consistently whiny wuss too, so maybe this is “realistic.” But, on the flipside, I wasn’t a tall, handsome guy with girls always following me around, either. (I’m still not.) I mean, if he’d watched any shoujo anime in the last 5 years, he would’ve been able to tell the signs of “I’m just too shy to tell you how I really feel,” right?
P.S.: Yesterday also marked my third anniversary with m.3.3.w as their TLC. A special thanks to all of the staff, past and present, who made my entry into the world of fansubbing a joyful one.

Thanks for the release! I really like your subs as well as the effort the team puts in to the typesetting. For me, it’s real close between m33w and Eclipse, but I don’t mind waiting the extra few days for your releases. Keep up the fantastic work!
I will forward your compliment to our typesetter. — Love, asagao

Would prefer it if he just casually said “so, wanna go out sometime” rather than a full blown confession, because ‘confessions’ never happened that way when I was at school
5’9″ isn’t super tall though
Tall for a Japanese high schooler. Also, I totally confessed to a girl (and got rejected) anime-style in high school. Then again, it was probably the influence of having a bookshelf full of manga in my house… — Love, asagao
