Yes, I don’t have Photoshop. Stop scoffing!

As usual crack before the SRS BSNSS :P Enjoy…

Once upon a time, long long ago, in a land Library far far away (somewhere in Mito, Ibaraki apparently) there lived a bunch of evul wbitches who’s sole purpose in life seems to be tormenting the lives of their fellow dormmates (and other bimbotic activites like walking around to be noticed with their mini doggies in their mini bags or something).

3 generic examples of said bwitches.

Our heroine, a headstrong princess returning to her homeland after a very successful quest to find her Prince (see first pic ;P) cannot stand the irksome sight of these filthy creatures wreaking foul cattiness upon the innocent Library-folk. How can they just stand by and go through the unjust they have to endure every day???

“I WILL SURVIVE, I WILL SURVIVE!”

Distraught and after experiencing first-hand some of the sh*t the bwitches fling at the Library-folk, our Princess decides to take matters into her own hands…

BURN BEEEEETCHEES, BURN!!!!

Unfortunately their combined bimbotic auras of obliviousness renders the attack useless…

(Author’s note: No offence meant to blondes and/or bimbos out there ;P)

Not to be unsettled by one minor setback, Princess Iku seeks the help of her good friend, Shibasaki, The Wicked Awesome Witch of the Kanto Library Information Bureau.

Shibasaki: This is going to cost you more than the usual full course meal you know. I was in the middle of making a love potion for Tezuka…

Shibasaki sends Iku a spell to end all spells, the ultimate WIZARD SWEAR!!! (Seriously, watch the video if you haven’t, even if you aren’t into Harry Potter XD)

Inspired by their Princess’ valiant efforts in defeating the evul monsters destroying their land, the oppressed Library-folk decide to stand up for themselves and insist that they be allowed to use the swear on the bwtiches for themselves! Which they proceed to do…

(Author’s note: I’m sorry, I’m just too in love with the Mr Saturn font =P)

…and *poof*…

…The spell turns the evul bwitches into ‘harmless’ bunnies.

Library-folk to Princess Iku: “Now what?”

Iku: “We send them to my dear friend blissmo… *evil smirk*”

And the Ibaraki Library-folk lived happily ever after. The End.

Well sort of. Part 2 of this crack fairy-tale:

After her fairly successful side-quest (she still owes a ton of desserts to the Good Witch Shibasaki), Princess Iku returns to her home castle, only to be confronted with a brutal *gasps* slap-match with her mother, the Queen, due to their differences in ideals (and that age old cliche tradition of mother’s and daughters not seeing eye-to-eye)

Let’s add to that the fact that someone’s secret has been outed (must be them evil bwitches before they go eradicated), and we get one messy situation…

But it seems the King was already well informed of our Princess’ escapades with her Prince Charming, though that doesn’t seem to please the Queen at all (note to Prince Doujou, this is how your life is going to end up like eventually :P )

(Author’s note: issa-sa likes to wish a belated Father’s Day to all the easy-going dads out there who are all for their children chasing their dreams and aren’t overly-concerned over the small scrapes they may or may not be responsible for when they were young =P Oh, and for all the other sort of dads out there as well ;P)

Once again distraught over a situation that she can’t seem to resolve on her own, our Princess stats weeping her obligatory tears of the episode (this is not to say Iku is weak-willed in any way. It is a sign of her human nature needing a release in hard times – some people cry, some people watch anime, that is all). This somehow summons her Prince Charming to her side, ready to give her support during her low moments – rather than outright saving her like his other counterparts are apt to do, as he is MAN enough to recognize the strength which his mate possesses on her own :)

BEST SCENE THIS EPISODE.

Fully charged from her reunion with her Prince, Iku faces her parents once more for an honest parent-and-child discussion about her life, her current ‘dangerous’ job of slaying evul bwitches (and other menacing creatures that come in red uniforms…), and her relationship with her new-found Prince, and they come to a mutual understanding that Iku is no longer to be babied (despite the one incident in the past where the King accidentally dropped poor Iku in a Dragon’s lair, but that is all in the past :P ) and may be allowed to continue her questing and love life with Prince Doujou :D

And so to celebrate this joyous occasion of strengthening family ties,  they watch a few rounds of Animal Yokocho because there is nothing more awesome and joyous than doing so as suggested by the author! THE END XD

OMAKE:

Doujou: You idiot – This is how your parents found out about our secret!!!

(Next episode looks too be war is SRS BSNSS btw, so don’t expect this sort of crack this week)

Now onto my thoughts on the actual episode: This week’s summary will be from usagijen (edit: and biankita) if you need one.

You know who she reminds me of?

(Btw, I loved how Iku did this episodes pre-episode introduction – it’s exactly like how I read when kanji’s involved XD)

Woah at this episode’s intensity – and the gunfights haven’t even started! First as you’ve probably realized, I absolutely HATED those Operation Division Chicks of the Ibaraki Library with a sickening passion – all through the episode I was screaming BIIIIIIIIITTTTTCCCCCCCHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH at the monitor every time they did something horrible to Iku. It shows that despite their library wants to be ‘peaceful’ and anti-violence by not giving their Defence forces the appropriate allocation of manpower and training, they’ve failed utterly in maintaining the peace at all! The poor girls of the Defence Division are literally outnumbered by them bwitches 6 to 1, so have been enduring all their oppressive and incredibly offensive behaviour for so long! Fortunately, in the end, Iku musters up the GAR (thanks to being charged up by Doujou and settling things with her parents :D ) and lays the smackdown on those bwitches! Although I kinda prefer my way of handling things (I’m sorry to anyone who didn’t find it any funny), I’m rather impressed that Iku manages to handle the situation without any brute force merely giving them the menacing threat of reporting their bitchy behaviour to the higher ups should they persist – and Iku being the Princess a member of the much more influential Kanto Task Force, they can be sure that she’ll keep her word!

Well, the ONE good thing that came out of that entire fiasco was that it lead up to such a *THUMBS UP* Doujou X Iku moment in the laundry!!! I personally love that Doujou knows how to give strength to Iku without being awfully mushy about it (although some may prefer a bit more from him :P ) GOGODOUJOUIKU!!!

And finally, I’m glad that Iku manages to clear things up with her parents in the end. But that was one ZOMG mother-daughter slapfight even though it only lasted one blow from each side – I mean, call me naive, but can you imagine slapping your own mom??? Iku’s mom may be one to overreact when it comes to her child’s safety, but at least daddy’s there to keep the peace and balance (though it seems he’s rather henpecked atm, lol)

Next episode looks to be seriously intense though, with the military action (please no bitching about that aspect of this show). With the Media Communists heading their way towards Ibaraki, how can the awfully inept (lol, ‘Kasahara-level‘ as described in the episode) Defence Force stand up to an attack, even with the help and training of the Task Force??? tokidokiwakuwaku…
