Densha Otoko ep 8

If you have not watched ep 8, stop downloading pr0n and get it now or Shiraishi Miho will stick this needle uh, somewhere unpleasant.... (maybe the wrong threat to use against sukebes)

WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD










Ep 8 is the funniest episode of the series yet. Sakurai-san is a perfect for playing the antagonist. Its so funny to see his plans go up in smoke. Loved the part where he tries to impersonate Densha on the board. His impersonation is so freaking funny. The one sad note is that it looks like Koide Saori's story has finished. I want an alternate story where there's more Koide Saori! Misaki Itoh just diesn't look as hot in a maid uniform!

As a consolation, we get to see the story behind Sakurai Chizu and Ogari Shun.

It would have been fun if they had cast Yaguchi Mari in Sakurai Chizu's role but Chizu's hot so I can't complain. The way their subplot ends kinda reminds me of the ending of Golden Bowl. :) IMO, they should have saved it for the last ep.

Hermes with Densha's hot sis and Sakurai-san lurking at the back. Its nice to see his sis finally get more lines. She's so kawaii she must be adopted. Either that or the mom is really hot.

Ignore the Otakus in the foreground and concentrate on the maids in the background. Notice the second from left is wearing a very short skirt........ Drool...........

The climax of the ep, Hermes finally enter's Densha's room. WTF does Densha have two figures of T Hawk from Street Fighter? Maybe he's a super T Hawk user who can pull of 720s at will. Saw a really nice G-Taste figure today for $50. Was so tempted to get it.....

Update: Ooops, I made a big mistake. Should have noticed the name tag on the bag. Its not her ex, its her otousan. Thanks to Lydia for pointing it out. Goddamn, I was so afraid of the ex plotline that I was too quick to believe it. I blame my mistake on them casting a non balding, pot bellied actor to play her old man.

On that note, watching Densha meeting Hermes' father will be interesting. I would love to see Tamura Masakazu as the father. I can imagine the look of disgust on his face when he finds out Densha is an otoku, lol. Maybe the father will be revealed to be a closet otaku and has not actually been cheating on the mom but going to anime conventions. Lol. That would be a funny ending.

My prediction is Densha will end up helping Hermes' parents patch things up. And next ep Hermes is going to find out about the forum. How will she react to find out there are so many people privy to their relationship? Will she discover Densha's alien tenacle hentai collection?

Props to pocemit for uploading and Greyhorse for being a god of subbing.
