After Aine’s big scene last week, it was natural to wonder if Yurishia would get a similar scene of her own this week. Indeed she does, and the good news doesn’t end there.
Things kick off with a way too brief onsen trip for our hero. Hayuru is unwittingly waiting for him in the bath, leading to her first true nude scene of the series. It’s not very long, but it’s pretty good stuff. As with the other girls in this series, IMS does a nice job on her nipples.
(Note: the first two shots below (back, ass) are not directly connected. The third image is my photoshop attempt at merging them.)
Hayuru attempts to transform into her battle suit as a means to cover herself up, but for whatever reason the breast covering part of her suit fails to materialize. This seems to turn Kizuna on even more. Hayuru then KO’s Kizuna.
Afterwards, Hayuru gets a talking to from Reiri about falling behind the other girls in the race for immoral weaponry (reading between the lines: “Time to get off your lazy ass and start seducing the MC!”). Nothing further happens between Hayuru and Kizuna this episode, but the plot is obviously setting the table for a future love-room session between the two (as was shown via a flash forward back in episode one).
The next scene finally introduces “The Love Room” into the story. Kizuna’s commander (and older sister) Reiri gives a variety of demonstrations as to the room’s virtual reality powers…
…including a demonstration on herself.
The first test subject along with Kizuna is… Yurishia! Adding to the fun, Kizuna puts her in a blindfold and handcuffs.
After a successful power up session, our heroes head out to Guam for a mission.
I’m hardly a gun-nut, but there’s definitely something sexy here about the spy girls type vibe to this scene. It’s hard to figure how much good a handgun will do them when they can already blow up an armada of aliens with lasers coming out of their butts, but who cares, girls with guns making spy poses are sexy for some reason.
You may remember this mysterious pair of boobs from our human-alien villain last week.
Well, they appear again in this episode as our villain confronts the heroes.
And before you can even finish saying “I wonder what her nipples look like?”, this happens:
If you look closely, you can see how her nipples start out as inverted before unfurling out for a breath of fresh air.
Damn. This series isn’t fucking around anymore. Three titty reveals in one episode? Now that’s more like it.
Thankfully, this villain isn’t a total pushover and actually forces our heroes to retreat after summoning a badass three-headed robo-dragon.

Oppai recap:
Webms:
Last week’s episode was clearly the best of the series so far, and this week’s episode arguably tops it. I really hope IMS can keep up this momentum the rest of the way.
It may not show in these screencaps, but the animation and production levels took a noticable drop this week. Action sequences looked stiff and untalented inbetweener artists were getting more work than they should have. But you just have to hand it to IMS, the parts that needed to look the best looked as good as ever.
I think this might be the trashiest anime I have ever watched, but the trashiness is exactly what makes it so fun each week. The ecchi scenes in this anime get more of a rise than I would have thought. They do a nice job of making the erotic scenes feel extra exciting somehow. More exciting that Testament ever was, other than maybe Chisato’s OVA. Just my opinion.
Now the bad news: We have to wait seven more excruciating days until the next Masou Gakuen HxH episode comes out. This series has had me counting down the days between each episode, now more than ever.
