Hagaren episode 37 is a LOT of fun. Lindsay, you should definitely see this one, plenty of Roy and Havoc, and all the antics that this series is so starved for.
I won't get into any detail, because if I did all I want, it would be three marathon entries. But, uh, wow. The beginning is...is...god, Roy is the KING of nousatsu yawning (do you need a nap? 膝枕どーぞ). Also, ROY DREW A PUPPY ON HIS PAPERWORK, Roy on his date, SCHESCA SHOWS UP HALLELUJAH, Havoc still has those adorable blue eyes, Roy is gorgeous in the car (ha ha, he sticks his head out the window like a dog X3), Havoc floating around in shock for the second half, Roy smacking Fury upside the head, and I'm sorry, but what kind of a dream are we supposed to infer Hawkeye is having? Also, Roy said "ore" at the end. Look, I pay attention because he always says "watashi," and, well. Roy is nothing BUT the "ore" type. It's so uncomfortable.
I half expected a ghost to show up and for Roy to scream like a girl, but I guess this is a funny way of ending it, too. Hahaha, outsmarted by an adolescent dog. :P Yes, Black Hayate is a couple months old now, so he's not full-size, but now there's an actual dog in there along with all the squishy puppy-ness. I think it's swanky that they show this change.
The only thing I'm disappointed with is that they crammed all the hilarity they've been putting off into one episode. I think some of this beautiful hysteria should be shown every week, but noooooo, there's fight scenes and...crap. The funny is just woefully lacking---in fact, the density of everything I want to see is very poorly balanced, and these aren't even things that have a huge impact on the plotline. It's just tiny details that get thrown away instead of being carefully nested in between the rest of the fun, at fairly equal intervals. Okay, there definitely needs to be more Roy. There need to be more antics, more focus on the army types, and less squeezing down to Ed, Al, and the random anime-only jerks that they run into. If there are characters we already know and care about, they should not be screwing around with new ones.
