> "The Honeymoon's Over" is the third volume of Please Teacher, which is
one of my all time favorite anime series. The adventures of Kei and
Mizuho continue as they learn the intricacies of arguing and jealousy.
Since they were all lovey dovey in volume 2, now it's time for confusion,
separation and turmoil...
> Episode 8. "Long Night": Yeah right, this isn't hentai. Kei
and Mizuho spend most of their time trying to make each other jealous in
this episode. Kei's classmate, Koishi, ends up professing her love
for him during a late night meeting. Meanwhile, Matagu intends to
ask Mizuho out on a date, but is too nervous to pull the trigger during
their late night meeting. Of course, this leads to a lot of tension,
jealousy and turmoil...
> Episode 9. "Let's End It Now": Ichigo wants to see Koishi happy,
and she intends to help her get it on with Kei. Ichigo tells Kei
about her problem, which is the same problem that he has -- they both go
into "stand-stills"! Kei becomes determined to move forward, and
ensure neither of them will have any more "stand-stills". Naturally,
this is a dangerous route... Come on now, two people that have the same
obscure disease?
> Episode 10. "But...": Kei splits up with Mizuho in a vein effort
to please Koishi, which will supposedly keep Ichigo and himself from going
into "stand-stills". Everything falls apart when Mizuho sees Kei
about to kiss Koishi. At that point, everyone realizes that Kei really
loves Mizuho, their teacher! The pressure builds as Kei goes into
a "stand-still"... There's a reason they say love conquers all. |
