You mean this one? It's already the message alert tone on my phone.;)

Yes, that's the one. :lol:

And this another reminder that my phone is so old since it cannot have custom anything.

Miyuki and Konata held the ice cream cone in their left hands as they ate it.

Of course, Miyuki is a klutz, so her being right-handed and using the slicer improperly is a possibility. :P


Yeah, it looks like they are all intentionally left-handed. When you see all of them taking their tests, all the girls are leftys, and all the background kids are rightys.

It looks like Kagami and Tsukasa's family are all leftys except dad. Watch the dinner scene where they are eating curry. ;)

I agree with Konota on one thing. If people spend more time on forums, then the literacy rate should go up! :lol:

Gah, Konota is seriously like THE representation of all of us though I'm more closely related to Kagami. Hopefully we get to see Konota's actual workspace.

Lucky Star ep.3. A fairly dialog heavy episode, I'm definitely needing a subtitled translation for this one. My pitiful understanding of Japanese failed me once again.

The ending is a departure from the previous episodes ED themes. But, based on the contents of the preceding episodes and KyoAni's history, it's par for the course. :P

If you aren't sure of what I'm talking about:
[spoiler]The ending has Konata singing Sorega Ai Desho, the Full Metal Panic? Fumoffu opening.[/spoiler]

There are a couple of other school anime parodied:
[spoiler]Cromartie High School and Pani Poni Dash[/spoiler]

And, can anyone identify the games that the girls play on the PS2?

Plus, PONYTAILS! (Possible references to FMP?F and Haruhi?)

Late posting [gah]

That opening sequence gave me cavities and my teeth started hurting. Too much sweetness sugary. The squeeky voices made visiting the dentist all the more plausible...

I hear the end credit sequence [aka, the still-image door] will always have new songs and different dialogue each time. [dur, why didn't other anime producers think of that to save budget]

Konata is teh sex0rs... She does represent every ingenious gamer/anime lover who can ace tests by cramming [the one thing she has that I want from her REALLY badly]

Her ridiculously tiny frame and dull/bored face freakin' kills me in laughter

Need to watch them booshyte links of yours when I get off of work.

I just realized, that parody picture is mirrored.

Original picture:

Maybe to reverse the left-handedness of the characters? There is evidence supporting the theory that all the girls are left-handed, with Konata being nearly ambidextrous (if not actually ambi-).

Damn, this anime is easy to make parody images with, due to the relative simplicity of the animation. Palette swapping and color replacement is a snap to do.
