Title:Sumomomo Momomo ~ Chijou Saikyou no Yome
Episode:04: Humanity and justice is not an Assassination Plan
Synopsis
(Warning – plot spoiler!!!)

The attack at the zoo (in episode 3) by the two ninja assassins failed miserably. Returning to their rented apartment, they are greeted by a gang of street thugs set defending their territory against the interloping gang (of two ninja). What a WRONG MOVE!

Struggling to overcome Koushi’s stubbornness, Momoko finds some new romantic (and seductive) ideas in an adult magazine in a local book store! Calling Koushi down from his room for dinner, Momoko tries to surprise him with her special dinner - LOLI-SUSHI! (with a generous side serving of Uni-Gunkan.)

Having failed to charm Koushi with her special dinner, Momoko sneaks into his bedroom later that night. She is surprised to catch her Koushi playing an educational audio-tape in his sleep. He has a habit of repeating everything that is mentioned in the audio-tape. Stopping the tape, Momoko whispers some romantic phrases in the ear of her sleeping Koushi, which he dutifully repeats – SENDING her into absolute BLISS! Great fun, at least until Koushi wakes up, catches her at her mischief and tosses her out of his room.

The next day, the two assassins are busy stalking Koushi and they catch him at the park playing Frisbee with Momoko. The ninja girl has an accident (she gets hit by the Frisbee) and tumbles off the wall. Koushi runs up to check on her and she has a surprising reaction to Koushi’s attention. Being very embarrassed, she races away.

Later than night, blond ninja girl steels her resolve and sneaks into Koushi’s room intent on killing him. She catches Koushi sleeping soundly, listening to his audio-tape through some headphones. With a slash, her first sword stroke misses and then suddenly Koushi grabs her! Struggling with Koushi, blond ninja girl is shocked, surprised and bewildered by what he gently murmurs in her ear as they tussle on the bed. She finally blows a gasket, slaps Koushi for being so lewd and runs away enflamed by what he said!!!

Waking up, Koushi is at a complete loss to explain why someone slapped him. But he does get very ticked off when he comes to realize that Momoko replaced his study tape with one of her romantic ‘specials’.

Comments
Of all of the episodes so far, this one is the absolute worst!! It pushes the loli-ecchi edge to a new high!! But it is also perhaps the best episode so far. It is very creative and ingenious in twisting the story to explain how Koushi’s third harem interest becomes charmed and entangled into his strange life.

How Koushi plays the Frisbee game with Momoko is SOOOO WRONG! But I did have to laugh!!

Not mentioned are the (ecchi) bath house scene or the butt-naked street brawl! I found myself LOL more than several times during this episode!!

While Sumomomo Momomo is one of the most pervy anime series that I have seen in quite a while, I have to admit that I find myself really enjoying both the interesting characters and the strong story. Tis interesting to have the 'pervert' be a girl and not boy main character. My only lament would be that the quality of the animation is just not as good or as tight as Rizelmine.

UNI – (How do I politely explain this?) It is the reproductive organs of a sea urchin. Served raw as a type of sushi, it is considered to be an acquired taste item, very fancy and is rumored to have a similar effect on the romantic drive as that of raw oysters. And GUNKAN is a type of oval sushi presentation used for types of 'soft' foods, such as ROE or UNI.
