Kami-Sama, Kasa Wo In Sasete Kudasai
30 May 2008
This episode of Haromoni@ appears to follow directly on from last week's. In fact it's more like one episode cut into two parts than two separate episodes. They're wearing the same fairy dresses from earlier and there's only two segments to the whole show. The 'clips roll' even shows the same videos from last week. Should be quite a short review then!
The first clip features a GakiKame Theatre quiz. The members have to guess how many takes it took for Kamei Eri to throw an umbrella into a small basket. They were given the choice of 'big' - 50 takes or more; or 'small' - 49 takes or less. If anyone got the exact number of takes then there would be a prize. Everyone except Jun Jun and Takahashi Ai voted for 'big'.
They played the clip and it was clear from the first ten takes that we might be here for some time. By the 40th attempt Eri had been there for an hour. Eri was clearly starting to get frustrated by this point and started shouting random things to no one in particular. The neighbours must have wondered what the hell was going on. On the 49th attempt she got extremely close but it didn't go in so Jun Jun and Ai lost the quiz. In the end it took Eri 139 attempts to get the umbrella into the basket.
Because Jun Jun was the furthest away from the correct answer she would have to do a penalty game. They surprised her by suddenly popping a balloon right next to her and filmed it in super-slow motion. Seeing Jun Jun's shock in slow motion was quite funny but what made it even better was Kyabetsu's face in the background. One of the funniest things I've seen in awhile.
The second part of the show was taken up with the memory challenge to determine the most stupid person from the group. The members with the lowest scores from the previous rounds would compete. This meant Jun Jun, Lin Lin, Eri and Michishige Sayumi would be taking part. To make it easier they'd chosen thirty different things and places that only had two characters in their name.
Everyone got off to a flying start and clocked up three correct answers. All except Eri who didn't get any. It wasn't until the fourth round that she managed to get her first correct answer. Jun Jun was easily the strongest contestant this time and only got one incorrect. I really liked the bit when Jun Jun got the Monet card and they immediately cut to Sayumi who got the Manet card. That quick one-two cut was brilliant to watch, especially with Sayumi's smile as she held up the card.
What happened at the end was quite unbelievable. Sayumi, Eri and Lin Lin all got the same sequence of cards four times in a row and each time they couldn't get it right. Sayumi got Pele (Brazilian football player), Eri got Taka (a bird of prey) and Lin Lin got Mugi (wheat). Eri eventually got hers correct and Jun Jun had to answer Lin Lin's card. The Pele card would end up deciding the loser between Lin Lin and Eri. Eri failed to get it right and Lin Lin triumphantly held the card aloft and answered, "Pele!".
Final scores were - Jun Jun: 11, Sayumi: 7, Lin Lin: 7, Eri: 5, and thus Eri was declared the most stupid /laugh. They even gave her a new nickname - AhoKame. This episode was a lot of fun to watch. Next week's might be even funnier. They're having Satoda Mai as a guest and it looks like she'll be competing with Eri in another memory challenge. This time it will be things with a single character name. Should be very interesting to watch.
