Girls Bravo - 7: Bravo Searching for a Husband

Title:Girls Bravo
Episode:7: Bravo Searching for a Husband
Synopsis
Koyomi reveals that back in Seiren, Maharu (Miharu's older sister) asked her to find her a husband. Koyomi, however, suffers from androphobia (a fear of men) and doubts that she'll be able to fulfil the request (her traumatic experience with Fukuyama certainly didn't help). Tomoka ("Tomo") is offended by being treated like a kid (which is basically what she is), and vows to complete the task before Koyomi can, even if all the others help her. As the two competing parties head out into the city, Risa is tailing Koyomi's group, and is suspicious of this new girl. She sends Hayate and Kosame to investigate, and when they report their initial findings, jumps to the conclusion that Koyomi is looking for a husband for herself--namely, Yukinari!
Comments
Damn, I almost made it through an episode of Girls Bravo (and a pretty good one) without Kirie brutally beating somebody up--but not quite. I'll never understand why the writer(s) thought raw violence would be funny. As I've explained before, my theory of humor is that things are funny when they're not what you expected, but still make some sense. If violence meets those guidelines, (and the injury is clearly not too serious) then it's a legitimate joke--you might call it slapstick. But Kirie beating the s--- out of somebody is exactly what I expect, and even the very first time she did it, never made any sense, unless she's just plain crazy (which is not particularly funny). Nevertheless, the rest of this episode was fun--especially the girls acting as models at a motorcycle display.
