| So much sparkling. |
The student council is met up by Yatsushiro, a third-year
tough girl whose request is to write a love letter. Medaka assigns Akune the
request as his first to fulfill. Akune decides to do the writing for
Yatsushiro. He is reprimanded by Medaka telling him that it is about feelings
and that he cannot write the letter for Yatsushiro. Moved by her words, Akune
gets serious and teaches Yatsushiro how to perfect her writing for an entire
week. Yatsushiro goes through with her love letter and Akune gets a thank you
from Medaka.
My Opinion
The first half of the episode made me root for Zenkichi but
at the end, I had to sympathize with Akune. Nabeshima may be the Judo Trickster
but she did have a heart in letting Akune go to fulfill his dream.

The duel was emotion-driven. Zenkichi needed to win to keep
his job while Akune needed to win to replace him. It was not until after so
many takedowns that Zenkichi received support from Medaka in what I will say is
the reason I just cannot lose my heart for this series. Emotion-driven or not,
Zenkichi is mostly driven out of his need to protect Medaka. Not only that,
having a girl you like cry over you is something I would never want. So I take what I said back, I’ll continue to root for Zenkichi.

Can’t resist the cuteness.
The second half dealt with hardwork and
dedication will pay off. Someone like Yatsushiro should not rely on someone
else to write her love letter for her. I wholely agree with what Medaka has
said about writing a letter is about feelings, not words. Yatsushiro may have
written a bad love letter with her choice of words but it is her feelings that
count and if she is able to convey them to the boy she loves, that will be all
that matters. The second minisode also helped get Akune out of his “Mr. Perfect”
phase which I am glad for.
