Mamotte! Lollipop - 11
Don’t you hate when a show has flashbacks? 
Especially flashbacks that they show of a scene that happened like 5 minutes earlier. 
Yea so anyway Nina’s brain finally clicks that “Hey it’s Christmas soon and that means Zero and Ichi are leaving….IN A WEEK!” (you’re wrong cause actually there’s 2 weeks left of this series!!) Anyway Nina gets all emo and starts avoiding them saying she can be fine on their own. The two of them of course misunderstand thinking that she wants to avoid them once again because they are always with her. Also Nina can’t seem to “choose” between the two of them, although according to my lovely visitors she picks Zero at the end of the manga. Continue Reading »
So yea Ichi used to be this badass but Zero and his persitant annoying tactics turned him into a good guy. This episode plot was so…predictable, and so overused I’m not sure what to think of it honestly. The first “issue” that arises is Ichi has a crush on his non-blood-related sister who happens to be engaged to a guy she plans to marry. This creates a problem for him and she only sees him as a brother. At the same time, Ichi is a badass and he only hurts people because he doesn’t trust any of them except for Sarasa (his step sister.) 
Okay we get 2 more numerous people today, which brings our idiot count up to 10. Today’s guests include 9, also known as Kuku (or as I believe kookoo) and 10, also known as Toto. Anyway Kuku is only in the magician race because she wants to be closer to Zero, and Toto is only in it because he wants to be with Kuku. Oh the love triangleness. OH yea and since the manga is 7 volumes, and the anime is only 13 episodes, all of a sudden Nina has like this major crush on Zero and he’s got the hots for her. 
Ah the all famous body switching episode. Every anime has to have one of those to complete the circle of gags! Nanase devises a plan to hit Nina in the face with a volleyball so that she can put on a bandaid that will cause Nina & Zero to switch bodies. He picks Zero because he knows that Zero is the jealous one and Zero tells Nina that it pisses him off whenever she gets “friendly” with another guy. Lol ^^; 
This week’s stupid bad guys include a kansai-ben guy who hits on Nina and a loli-shota trap who likes to get hit on by guys that think he’s a girl. The two characters are Yakumo and Nanase, 8 and 7 respectively. So the usual stupidity continues, and instead of having an air car like Zero & Ichi, they have an air…boat. They decide to trap the “pearl” person by creating a kimo dameshi (basically a haunted house thing) for everyone at the school. After the pair ups, Nina ends up with Ichi, Zero ends up with San, Go ends up with some girl who’s in love with him, and Rokka ends up with #4 (whatever his name is again.) 
Nina wins a trip to the hot springs but since she has like no friends and her parents are on vacation, Zero & Ichi go with her. As usual Rokka gets jealous & together with Go they follow them. In the meantime, San & Forte are there as well. 
Okay so in this episode Ichi gives Nina a lollipop that actually produces a magical barrier, so I guess that explains the lollipop thing aside from the jewel that she swallowed. We are also introduced to two new characters following the numerical sequence, 5 (guy) and 6 (girl). The girl is giving me Ranpha vibes from Galaxy Angel. The only difference is her hair is pink instead of blonde.
