Episode 8 with another shot of Kona-dad; this time he’s on tv since he’s trying to play it off as a phamous photographer at his daughter’s sports meet.
Some musings before include Konata jocking around Kagamin some, then some more. Then a scene where Konata says Miyuki isn’t suited for athletics because of her…endowed figure. Well, it’s true :D
Event 1: Hot Cross Buns
This rather peculiar event involves running up to a bun suspended in mid air and jumping up to chomp it out of the air. The other girls try their best to get a good bite in, but cannot stand up to the force of Kagami’s chompers. She’s so powerful she chews down the entire rack holding the buns.
Sidenote 1: Konata’s dad is around snapping pictures of all the nubile young girls with his camera and monster of a lens. That’s one way to support your daughter…!
Event 2: 100m dash
As we all know, Konata got some juice in those legs of hers, so it wasn’t a matter of winning, but how she was going to do it. What better way than to pretend she’s playing a video game…like one of those old school Olympics games where you just spam the A button to run as fast as possible. She even employs some hardcore tactics like using a metal ruler, lol
Event 3: Long Jump
Kagami is quite athletic, actually – her weakness is more around the lines of trying too hard and. In this case, she totally smashes the other girls’ distance, but falls flat on her face. :D
Event 4: 110m hurdles
Hurdling isn’t as easy as it looks – besides having to run, you have to jump with impeccable timing. Something I just can’t picture Tsukasa doing. Oh well, she looks cute doing it. That red headband she wears is super cute!
Event 5: Relay!
The final event of the day is the long-awaited relay race. The adrenaline is pumping and tensions are high as that Initial D parody song plays in the background. Miyuki the anchor seems to be in third place with quite a lot of ground to make up! Miyuki takes first as she crosses the finish line by a margin of 3 cup sizes.
The second half! Tsukasa trying to play her recorder. She’s blowing too hard so it sounds like crap, so Kagami tells her to ease up. Turns out pretty good! But then Tsukasa starts hyperventilating from breathing too hard while exhaling too little.
A little scene involving the girls standing in the lunch line deciding what to get. Seems like they all get what they ordered at the beach, except this time Tsukasa wants ramen too. But there’s no more…dai shokku!
Another scene where Tsukasa is thinking that it’s a good thing she’s the younger sister, since Kagami is so much more mature and level-headed. What if I were the older sister, Tsukasa thinks. Hilarity ensues.
Other happenings:
- Konata gets her letter published in Newtype. That’s huge!
- Delve into the mind of Konata as she stands in the manga section of the bookstore deciding what to buy
- Lucky Channel – Just when Akira looked like she was easing up a bit…there she goes again. Getting old? Not a chance in hell!
