Episode 10

Notes

• Nakayoshi Hot Spring- Nakayoshi is the magazine the manga was originally serialized in.
  • For this reason I'm calling the hot springs in Chu "Kodansha".
• Kazune sings Desire Show (providing us with the only snippet of translated lyrics I've ever found... Your hip style, and interesting voice. You make me nervous, my sugar face. Get ready.)
• Throughout the episode an old man I'm pretty sure is Q is shown fishing. We'll see him at it again later in ep 14/15.
• "I don't know what I'd do if I met Kirika-senpai here", she says. Hah. Incidentally, Kirika was on the board of judges for Kazune and Kirio's competition a moment ago, and there's no indication of how she got there before the other two... oops.
• Sumo incident reference count: 1. Dosukoiiii!
• The switched transformations happen, of course... You can actually tell from the second Karin's ring lights up that it's not hers from the color. Technically you can do the same with Kirio using Nyx's ring, but the colors are much closer. Everyone says their own transformation phrase, but the attack names that go with the ring.
• Nyake has a very, very familiar show on TV there...
• When Kazune gets hit, we zoom in on Karin's eye... and cue flashback. From Suzuka's point of view in one of the lab tube things. Bubbles rise up in her vision... Kazuto is looking at her. Karin thinks Kazuto looks like Kazune, right before Kazune snaps her out of it. Once again it isn't brought up again.
