Those who always wished for more Lucky Star now have their dream come true - that is however, assuming by "more", it was for a "full-scale musical event!", worthy of exclamation point, which they were wishing for.

So it appears that ANN was actually wrong; it looks like we're going to be getting about 22 episode of Chihaya! That's actually somewhat exciting since we're still at Omi Jingu and there's still a few things to sort out regarding this whole Chihaya/Taichi/Arata love triangle. Either way, let's find out what happens! The episode starts off with everyone preparing for the individual tournaments. Nishima and Komano are thanking their lucky stars that Kanade said they don't have to wear hakama for the individual tournament since it's even hotter than it was the day before. Chihaya is busy stretching and mentally preparing herself for the tournament when Taichi asks her if she's feeling better and if she's up to the tournament. Chihaya reassures him that she's fine, but before Taichi can say anything else their teacher shows up. She gives them the run-down of the tournament; everyone is separated by class and everyone is to be considered their rivals. Kanade and Komano are in the same class and both are determined to win, but it also seems more or less like a friendly rivalry between them. Taichi and Nishida are both in Class B, so they'll eventually be facing each other though Taichi seems a bit disappointed that he won't be able to face Arata in a match since he's Class A. Chihaya seems determined to win the tournament and the group sets off for the temple.

Written by: Zyl at Sea Slugs! Anime BlogI have been interested in Washinomiya ever since I watched Lucky Star and read about how fans started to visit the small town, whose landmark shrine gate was featured in the OP, and then made my own first visit there in 2007.
