Kaicho Wa Maid-sama EP03

Who is in it?

Asumi Kana plays Honoka. This girl just recently got really busy. Before she seemed to do some low-profile roles but now, she is in a bunch of stuff; especially this season. She is Kondou Mikoto from Kampfer and the incredibly cute Taneshima Poplar. 

Toyosaki Aki is Hyoudou Satsuki. Toyosaki has played a bunch of moe characters like Lisa from Seiken no Blacksmith and Uiharu from Scientific Railgun. Toyosaki definitely does cute girls well and no wonder I really liked Satsuki.

What happened?

Well, episode starts off with the maid's at the cafe wanting to get Misaki dressed up as a "little sister", well she definitely made for a cute sister type but, the real downfall was her personality. Misaki always has that serious personality on and it was no wonder she couldn't do the little sister well. After the sister scene, Satsuki is trying to figure out what color Misaki should actually wear for maid ranger day. Misaki doesn't really care. Satsuki asks Usui to find out what color she is.

When she arrives at school, she discovers a bunch of kids looking at manga. Misaki can't really tolerate their conversation which consisted of 3d versus 2d girls and boobs. She goes to confiscate them and confronts one of the boys who owned the manga. Interested in how to become more of a cute sister type she forcefully asks him questions but, the kid runs away scared.

Usui laters on hears the same kids talking about stuff and asks them what kind of color Misaki is. They all had different opinions and I personally think she wore the red rose the best. Too bad the picture is of the purple one. 

Misaki ends up having a discussion with her friends about acting like a sister. Misaki's little sister is a bit of an oddball and Misaki feels that her sister is a bad example of the cute sister type. She also indirectly thinks her two friends look cute together and basically implies they would make cute lesbian lovers. 

Misaki couldn't escape the role of acting like a sister and ends up having to take care of Usui at the cafe. No matter how you look at it Misaki isn't capable of acting like a little sister type and Usui knows that. Usui becomes horribly disappointed with her act and decides to get up and leave. However, Misaki releases her true feelings and lets out her true tsundere nature and tells him that he is still welcome back, honestly it was pretty cute. Usui declares that her color is white and I forget why.

Themes?

Seems to me this episode was all about staying with who you are and not trying to change yourself. Usui is always on Misaki about that this episode and in the end she finally understands that. Basically, she understands she is a tsundere.

Final Remarks:

Fun episode I enjoyed it. The expressions in this series are pretty up there with Kimi ni Todoke and it is incredibly cute. I'm waiting for the next episode.
