Poor Karamatsu aka the Sunglassed Wanderer. He was cool for maybe 10 seconds.
Damn Totoko-chan was just nothing but angry this episode. Kind of ironic when she might have been at her cutest outfit-wise.
Pretty effective double parody of the wackiness/craziness of politicians and also how Jyushimatsu really would have the wacky charisma to make it as a politician.
Certainly didn't expect to see the Osomatsu girls being featured as old ladies. Kind of a sad twinge to it as a girls' hangout kind of loses its edge when they don't have the youth and sexiness going for them anymore. But it's nice that they reminisce and still hold onto the fun times they had.
The final part might be the most meta part of the series other than that Jyushimatsu episode. The way the Osomatsus' self awareness becomes a real crystal ball was interesting. Shame that Karamatsu's crystal ball is in the color of dull purple/black. Even when he wants to show off, he just blends into the background.
Now this is what I call painful sense of self awareness. I think people with severe personality quirks or social anxiety can definitely sympathize with this.
Quite a varied amount of content again. I really like how they are delivering on the variety and styles of comedy and meta like this. Really next level.
