Damn, that first scene with Mabu's "maintenance" was creepy as hell. In terms of Utena parallels, I feel like I've found the Akio/Touga analogue -- maybe even Akio/Anthy on some level. (Come to think of it, I could make some comparisons between Anthy and Mabu; one is purportedly a doll without a heart, the other is a "doll" with a mechanical heart.) The scene actually reminded me of Satsuki from Kill la Kill being abused by Ragyo most of all, though.

At least Mabu isn't a teenager, unlike the victims in the relationships I mentioned above. Not that his being an adult makes the scene that much less creepy.

I loved the juxtoposition between the ominous Reo/Mabu scenes and the heartwarming scenes with the three main boys bonding. It's a shame things went downhill on the boys' side as well, no thanks to Enta being jelly. (Actually, now Kazuki is happy again, what would Enta truthfully wish for now? Having Kazuki to himself? And there I was thinking Enta and Toi were starting to get along better... or is there a mislead somewhere in here?)

Also, we have ball jokes and a scene with a flower border, plus a reference to E.T. of all things... and what the freep is going on with Sara and Keppi?

Looking forward to more things going on with Toi, too.

I can't believe there's only four eps left now.
