Studying is hard work…

Episode 9 deals with the bane of all students, Exams! Unless you are a genius of course….

With exams looming, Sora and gang start to feel the pressure. Although it seems more apparent on Natsumi and less so on Sora herself… And while Natsumi envies Kate for not having any problems with english, likewise Kate envies them in terms of japanese.

Yeah, studying is a pain….

They sometimes look the same to me too…

Sora and gang decide to ask their seniors for studying advice. Which of these do you employ?

Method #1 (Kurihara-sempai):

“Study test paper patterns and maintain a balance of all options!”

Method #2 (Kamiya-sempai):

Live in your own world…

Method #3 (Kuga-sempai):

“Use flash cards”

Red is”Tomatao”?!?!?!?!

Method #4 (Negishi-sempai):

“I’ll show you my secret weapon!”

Compile all your lessons into note form! Making them small enough to smuggle in is optional…

Method #5 (Sasaki-sempai):

“Sing out what you learned”

“one times two is twooooo…, two times two is fouuuuuur…”

Method #6 (Kasugano-sensei):

“The best way to get good results is…”

“…to always keep your head warm with a chicken.”

Method #7 (Himuro/Tanabe-sempais):

Recharge your brain with solar power…

Method #8 (Buchou-san):

“Pay attention in class and review what you have learnt afterwards”

“W…W…Weirdo…”

[Overall Impressions]

In all, a pretty light hearted episode. We get to see how everyone’s personality effects their method of study. This episode’s serious moment came when we get a glimpse into Kurihara-sempai’s dream to become a biotope caretaker. In her, Sora finds inspiration to study. We also get treated to Kate attempting to recite a Japanese tongue twister. Although those of you with sensitive ears may want to get ear plugs, or simply lower the volume lol.

“Fight-o!”

“She shells she sell by the she sore…!”

“It has been scientifically proven that peeling onions improves sunlight absorption by 80%!”
