        Well, this episode begins with the girls bombarding Azusa with questions when they find out that she wants to join the club. When they find out that she plays a little guitar they hand her Yui’s guitar to play something for them, her guitar skills are way better than Yui’s skills even though Yui’s not ready to concede the point. When Azusa wants Yui to play her something, Yui fakes an back injury to avoid showing her skills to Azusa. Well, the girls accept Azusa club’s application and tell her to start showing up after class.

        When the next day comes, Azusa is shocked to see that the girls are sitting down for some tea instead of practicing, and she’s even more shocked to see that this is perfectly alright with Sawako. After awhile, Azusa thinks she’s being tested, so she starts to play her guitar while the others are enjoying tea causing Sawako to yell at her. Azusa breaks down in tears, then she starts yelling and screaming at everyone until Yui manages to calm her down.

       The next day when Azusa returns to the club she’s again shocked to see the girls drinking tea and eating cake, but Azusa is  soon brought over to the dark-side by a cake wielding Yui. Then Sawako pulls out a set of cat ears for Azusa, and at first she refuses to wear them until she sees Mugi wearing them. So, slowly Azusa is coaxed into putting them on, and the other girls are overwhelmed by Azusa’s cuteness, Yui gives Azusa the nickname Azu-nyan.

      After Azusa puts up with the cat ears, Sawako pulls out a maid uniform for her, and Mio thinks to herself that Azusa is now taking the teasing instead of her, but Mio now feels a little lonely. After club is over Mio returns to the room to fetch her cell phone and she sees the cat ears sitting by her phone, Mio can’t resist the temptation so she tries on the ears only to be caught by Ritsu. During a ice cream stop on their way home Mio tries to get a gauge on Azusa’s mood towards the club.

        The next day Mio tells the other girls that they need to come up with a plan of action because she thinks that they might lose Azusa as a member. So, they end up having a picnic at a park and Azusa wonders why Mio joined a carefree club like this one, and she even asks Mio why she doesn’t join another band but Mio is interrupted when she’s about to answer Azusa’s question. Later, Mio ends up yelling at the other girls that they have to stop screwing around and they need to start practicing.

        Once they get down to practicing, they have to decide who’ll play lead guitar, Azusa is clearly better then Yui, and she even asks Azusa for help. Azusa quickly finds out that Yui can learn things by just watching and listening to someone else. Azusa gets disappointed by the girls’ carefree attitude and she goes to a club looking to join another band but she wonders why she doesn’t feel anything for other bands that are clearly better than the K-On! club.

        It seems that Azusa hasn’t been showing up for club lately, and Mio tells the other girls that Azusa might not show back up. Then Azusa shows back up, and the girls asks her if she’s going to quit? Azusa breaks down in tears and tells the girls that she not sure why she joined this club, she felt moved by their performance, she thought she’d understand why, but she just doesn’t get it. So, Ritsu tells the girls to play for Azusa so she can try and get back her feelings. As they’re playing, Azusa thinks of all the faults each girl has, and wonders why they perform well together. Then Mio tells Azusa why she didn’t join another band, because it’s fun to play with them, and that’s why their performance seems so good, and she invites Azusa to play with them.  In the end, Mio tells Azusa that they’ll probably drink tea and screw and around, but they’ll have fun doing it. Well, that’s all for this episode.

How can you not fall for this tsundere face?

The girls playing for Azusa.

       Well, I felt that this was the most interesting K-On! episode so far. With the introduction of Azusa, Mio sees a kindred spirit of sorts, Azusa like Mio does her best to keep a serious & clam exterior but both girls harbor deep internal emotions and questions that they don’t feel comfortable exposing to others. This whole episode was about what Azusa wants or expects to get out of the club, when Azusa first watched the girls perform on stage something touched her, and when she joined the club she probably thought that practicing hard and being serious would bring her that magic. But, Azusa starts to understand, and Mio tries to tell her that part of the magic of the K-On! clubs performance comes from them truly liking each other and enjoying being together, that’s why they look so fun and energetic on stage.        

       One thing I’ve learned in life is that it’s nice to get payed to do things you like, but that always doesn’t happen and that’s why they call it work. But, when it come to doing things you don’t get payed for, it’s much better to have fun doing them and to do them with friends. So, Azusa just needs to surrender to the sweet silliness and have a good time hanging out and playing music with the other girls.

Oh, one of the funnest examples of a tsundere personality was this quote from a wiki entry.

“ Stupid Wiki, i-it’s not like I’m editing you because I like you or anything.”

       This episode starts off with Keita having a dream of him and his sisters having a “nice” visit to the beach. When Keita pulls a small octopus from the water, it’s mother or father begins to have its why with his two sisters as punishment, and just as the dream is getting good Keita is awaken by a kiss from Ako.

       After Keita gets over his shock, he chews out Ako for being so physically forward with him. Ako just ignores him and tells him he has to get up or he’ll be late, and when she pulls back his blanket she finds her sister underneath.

       As Keita is heading off to school his step-mother tells him that he’s the talk of the neighbor because everybody knows about how his sister’s confessed their love to him at school. She says that she’s not trying to be nosey but she’s just wondering who’s going to be his choice, Ako or Reiko? He says that its not right because they’re siblings, but his father says that step-brothers and step-sisters are just like any other man or woman. His step-mother tells him to hurry up and chose because the whole neighborhood has bets on his choice.

      At school, Keita’s friends notice that he’s been sleeping most of the class and they ask him about his sisters? His friends let their erotic thoughts run wild with all the yummy possibilities his two sisters represent, Keita gets angry at them but they tell him that healthy males should want action with hot girls. The more that Keita tries to put erotic thoughts of his sisters out of his mind the more they creep in, he even injuries his hand by hitting it on a desk to drive those thoughts from his head, and his friends notice this fact.

       When Keita returns home he finds his sisters inside his bedroom, they tells him if they waited till he got home to visit him he wouldn’t let them in. When Riko notices that he hurt his hand she grabs his hand and sends him some good healing vibes, and soon Ako jumps on him and gives him a mouthful of love saliva. During Ako’s assault on Keita’s mouth she manages to fall on him further injuring his hand, and later the sisters offer their apologies and their assistance to Keita.

         Keita heads off to the bath where he finds himself unable to wash himself with just one good hand; he thinks about asking his sisters for help but gives up on that idea.  As Keita is leaving the bath a naked Riko walks in on him, followed by a school swimsuit clad Ako, Riko compliments Ako on her use of such an imouto item. Once Keita has had enough of the girls, he gets up to leave, and the two girls fall on top of him, Ako’s forbidden zone lands on Keita’s face, and Riko’s treasure chest lands on Keita’s hand. The double erotic stimulation seems to bring satisfaction to each girl, but its too much for Keita to handle and the turtle comes out of its shell and Keita has a nosebleed explosion.

      The next morning Keita wakes up in his bed and he finds a letter of apology under his alarm clock from Ako, she says she’s sorry for his injuries and he should let her take care of him. Under Ako’s letter, there’s another letter from Riko telling him that she washed his underwear and that she was probably the cause of his wet dream.

      After school, Keita goes to see a doctor and he finds his two sisters waiting in front of the doctor’s office, they figured that he’d go see a doctor and wanted to be there for him. They tell him that they’ll do anything to help him, and Riko he goes as far as showing him that she’ll frap him off. This is too much for Keita, as he turns to leave, Ako grabs his injured hand to stop him, and once she figures this out she lets go and poor Keita falls down the office steps. As poor Keita is in a heap at the bottom of the steps he tells his sisters that he’ll never be able to study at this rate. Well, that’s all for this episode.

        Well, Kiss x Sis is back and the fanservice is even higher then in the first OAV. Kiss x Sis is a male dream world come true, living with two smoking hot step-sisters that want to jump your bones, and even your parents are giving you the thumbs up. It can’t get any better than this, right? Wrong, our hero seems to be slightly morally conflicted, even though his parents, friends, neighbors, and sisters are giving him the go for it sign he still tries to think of his horny sisters as regular sisters. But, what I mean by Keita being slightly morally conflicted is that he’s actually getting very turned on by his sisters’ actions and in the bath scene he even seems to go with his sisters’ flow, or at least he helped them flow.

       I know that the purpose of this anime is for us male viewers to say that Keita is an idiot because we’d hit both those sisters, and it’s having the desired affect on me. I would nail both Ako and Riko separately and together, and I would even have them do some yuri action before I jumped in to the fray. But, the whole premise of the series is to keep us saying I’d hit that while the lead refuses to give in to his male urges. So, I’ll give Keita one bit of advice, the only bad sex is having no sex at all.

         This episode begins with Yui finding out that her sister passed her entrance exams and will be attending the same high school this spring. Then we fast forward to the spring where we find out that Yui, Ritsu, and Mugi all got assigned to class 2-2, but Mio ended up in class 2-1, and we get to see Ui wearing  her high school uniform.

Always look out when a twin-tail girl approaches.

         As the class bell rings, Mio has to go to her new classroom by herself, and she tells herself that she feels lonely. Mio is really in despair in the new class until she sees that Yui’s friend Nodoka is in the same class, and the two agree to be friends. Soon the girls have to try and recruit freshman into the K-On! club, the flier that Mio made up is pretty weak, and they’re at a loss as to how to get the new students attention. Sawako comes up with the idea to dress the girls in animal costumes, but this plan seems to do more scaring than recruiting.  Once the girls are back in the clubroom Sawako has them dress up in maid outfits to greet potential new members, Yui’s sister Ui and one of her friends show up to check out the club.

        After the girls change out of the maid outfits they play a song for Ui and her friend, and we see the twin-tail girl looking in as the girls play (the girl is in Ui’s class and her name is Azusa Nakano). Back at home, Ui asks her sister what’s the best part of being in the K-On! club? Yui tells her that it’s got to be the fun factor, fun things are fun (classic Yui logic). The next day the club is going to give a performance for the incoming freshman, and when the girls look out from behind the curtains they see that it’s packed. When Ritsu brings up the fact that Mio should sing because she was popular last time, she flatly refuses, Sawako tells the girls to just go with the songs that Yui will sing. Before the concert Ui finds out from her friend that she’ll be joining the jazz club instead, so Ui and Azusa make their way to see the concert. After the intro song Yui does the club’s recruitment pitch to the freshman, and when it’s time for her second song to begin Yui forgets to sing and Mio has to step in, soon Mio and Yui are sharing vocal duties.

        After the concert the girls wait in the clubroom for new members to show up, but no one is beating down their door to join. Slowly the door opens, and we see that the girl (Azusa) who went to the concert with Ui wants to join the club. After she tells them she wants to join the club, Ritsu is so overjoyed that she tackles the girl. Well, that’s all for this episode.

       Well, between episode 6 and 7 we jumped from the cultural festival to the Christmas holidays, and now we jumped to the start a new school year, talk about time leaps. I found this episode to be enjoyable but not very interesting, Yui is still Yui, Mio is still Mio, and the only difference is that they’re now second years instead of first years. What we did get is the introduction of a new member to the K-On! club, I had thought that we would have gotten two new members, Ui being one, and Azusa being the other, but it looks like Azusa will be the main new member and Ui will probably just hang around the club and fill in if necessary. Azusa looks like she’ll be the true tsundere member of the crew, she has all the visual cues, Mio will be the moe princess, and Azusa will be the tsundere princess. I wish that in the final five episodes of K-On! that they’ll spend a little more time showing the girls working on their music skills and performance aspects and a little less time on cake and cosplay. Oh, wait, cosplay is the cake. If cosplay is the cake, then is the cake still cake?
