Raw foods may change you life!…

There are different reasons why people resort to all types of diets. The most common and also the strongest of these reasons is represented by the extra pounds, leaving aside all the other illnesses….

@ARAF

BL is the shorthand of the term “boy’s love” — aka homosexuality, male/male pairings ~

Yaoi actually refers to a PWP sense, The English letters form an acronym of the Japanese phrase ???????????????? (yama nashi, ochi nashi, imi nashi), often translated into English as, “no climax, no punch line, no meaning,” or as the catchphrase, “No peak, no point, no problem.”

as for the yaoi v bl usage —

Yaoi vs. BL

Contrary to the belief of many English-speaking fans, “yaoi” is not the primary name of this genre in Japan. Originally much of the material was called “june,” a name derived from a publication of the same name that published male/male tanbi romances, stories written for and about the worship of beauty using particularly flowery language. Eventually “june” died out in favor of “BL” or “boys love,” which remains the most common name.

Though originally a Japanese portmanteau, fans in Japan have only recently started using “yaoi” as a name of the boys love genre, usually in the form of 801. “801″ is derived from cell phone text messaging, where the “8″ key hosts the kana ? (ya), 0 is “o,” and 1 is “i.” For example, an Internet manga called Tonari no 801-chan, about a guy who wants to date a girl who turns out to be a BL fan, has become quite popular of late.

These Japanese definitions are somewhat different than what is common in English-speaking fans online, where “yaoi” usually refers to hardcore BL and the term “shounen-ai” for non-hardcore BL. However, Japan does not utilize this distinction. In Japan, “shounen-ai” refers to an obsolete shoujo subgenre that told stories of prepubescent boys in relationships ranging from the platonic to the romantic. “Shounen-ai” can also be used to refer to an adult who likes young boys– a pedophile.[2]

Sorry for the late reply DX Been really busy at work and finishing the Deep Frying post.

@Chrissie Thank you for posting this information and welcome to Scrumptious Anime! I liked a lot of scenes in this episode including those you’ve mentioned ^^

I am quite interested with the cheerleaders, I took a peek in the manga and am quite excited to see it animated.

@Chris Glad you found the jokes amusing

Yes, Mihashi’s faults make him easily to relate to. I appreciate how the character development is slow and steady. We see subtle changes and small improvements every episode, which mirrors real life because we can’t change ourselves in an instant.

@sonteen12 You’re very welcome ^^ I’ll try my best to continue making the summaries and hope you guys will keep reading and sending feedback.

@leongsh Thanks for the info on the fansub group. ^^ I think we can wait for the high quality subbed episodes then.

I lol’d at your harem jokes, those were great!

I really liked this episode too, it was really heartwarming especially the #1 on the jersey scene, it made me genuinely smile. I liked the character development, seeing Mihashi’s maturation is genuine and realistic, hopefully as he matures, he’ll realize his true potential in baseball, it just seems like his shyness is holding him back. He’s an awesome character besides his faults, just make him more special and likable.

Hello, I’m a new person posting here! I got directed to this page from… uh… I think one of Iciak’s LJ posts when I was reading my Friends page. I’m still fairly new in the Oofuri fandom (kind of) but I read the first chapter when Entropy scanlated it. It took me a while to actually make time to watch the anime, though.

By the way, my favorite part(s) of this episode:
- Tajima and Mihashi enthusiastically raising their hands (as if they’re proud of their failure in class, haha)
- Mihashi inviting everyone to his house
- His mom thinking that Ren wants to produce his own surprise party (lol this just made me laugh)

Anyways some class information for the teammates on Nishiura (including the lesser-known members):
Mihashi: 1-9
Abe: 1-7
Tajima: 1-9
Hanai: 1-7
Sakaeguchi: 1-1
Mizutani: 1-7
Suyama: 1-1
Oki: 1-3
Izumi: 1-9
Nishihiro: 1-3

Shinooka: 1-7 (team manager girl)

I would have included the cheerleaders’ classes too but I was lazy. XD.
