Motto To Love-Ru 08

Nana, Haruna, and Oshizu discuss how to increase their chest sizes; Rito becomes a dog and is taken in by Haruna; and Yami and Mikan switch bodies.

Uncensored groping makes a return.

Part 1 Summary:
After gym class, Risa, Mio, Haruna, and Oshizu talk to each other in the changing room. Risa examines herself and thinks that she is getting fat, so she and Mio decide to go around the school asking people about their secrets for maintaining their figure. Haruna gets dragged on the ride as always. The first person they ask is Lala, who has a great figure. However, the princess never really thinks about maintaining her figure and can eat as much as she wants. After groping Lala, Risa deicde to tease Rito about living with a hot girl like Lala, but Rito responds by saying that to him, the "inside" is more important than outer appearance. This statement impresses Haruna, but unfortunately Rito's poor choice of words allows Risa to tease him further by showing him her "insides" (panties). As Rito gets all embarrassed, Yui Kotegawa comes over to investigate all the commotion, and Risa pounces on Yui and gropes her too. Yui doesn't take the groping very well and her scream can be heard throughout the school.

Later after school, Haruna and Oshizu are out strolling in the park when they spot Nana sitting at a bench looking depressed. When asked, Nana reveals that she's pissed that Momo keep teasing her about her flat chest. After recalling being humiliated, Nana declares that she's going enlarge her breasts no matter what, and she forcefully recruits Haruna and Oshizu as her helpers. Nana, Haruna, and Oshizu arrive at Rito's home and are greeted by Mikan. Nana asks if Mikan wants to join her "Operation Breasts", but Mikan declines.

I don't like the censoring in general, but I have to say that the heart-shaped censor was a nice touch.

Now in Nana's room, the three girls try to brainstorm ideas of how to make their chests larger. Haruna reveals that she had tried doing push-ups and such to little effect. Nana wonders why Haruna is so concerned, and Haruna states that she feels inadequate in figure when standing next to the likes of Lala and Yui. Oshizu wonders why Nana and Haruna are so concerned about their chests, and Nana answers that bigger boobs makes one long more mature. Oshizu then remembers that someone told her that massaging breasts will make them larger, so she uses her PK powers to make Nana and Haruna grope each other. After an exhausting yet fruitless session, Haruna finally learns that Oshizu got the idea from Risa. Not giving up yet, Nana searches the galactic internet and finds an article that claims that breasts can be enlarged using a "cute octopus". Nana happens to have a "cute octopus" and summons the large alien octopus using her phone. The instruction states that the octopus should attach its suction cups to the bust, and without Nana's orders the alien octopus wraps its tentacles around the girls and starts suctioning on their chests. Outside the room, the curious Mikan is wondering what Nana and company were up to, and after hearing the screams Mikan decides that she made a wise decision not to join Nana.

Not joining in is one of the best decisions Mikan has ever made.

After getting rid of the octopus, Haruna suggests that they stop trying to enlarge their breasts because outer beauty is superficial. Haruna states that Rito had told her that it's the inside that counts, but Nana purposely interprets it as an inspiration to work on improving both her inner and outer selves.

It's Rito's lucky day: how else is he going to share a bath with Haruna?

Part 2 Summary:
Haruna is walking her dog Malone when they find a small and tired-looking dog lying in the park. Haruna decides to take the dog back to the apartment to nurse it back to health, but little does she know that dog is actually Rito. Earlier in the day, Rito was forced to try out Lala's body switching machine and ended up inside a dog. Rito then got separated from Lala and was chased by people who thought he was a stray and ended up at the park. At Haruna's apartment, Haruna takes a shower together with Rito and Rito is extremely embarrassed. Afterwards, Malone tries to teach Rito how to behave as a dog and demonstrates by licking Haruna all over the place. Rito is reluctant to follow suit but eventually tries it out, but this causes him to become so embarrassed that he bolts right out of the apartment. Back outside, Rito eventually finds Lala again and returns to his human body.

After this episode, Rito now knows how every inch of Haruna feels like... to the tongue.

The next day, Rito and Lala bump into Haruna walking Malone. Haruna picks up Malone who starts licking her, and Rito recalls his experience as a dog and starts blushing.

Part 3 Summary:
After Yami retrieves a balloon for a little kid by using her wings, Mikan and Lala remark that Yami's transformation ability is really cool. As the three girls walk together, Mikan wishes that she could try out Yami's abilities, and on cue Lala pulls out her body-switching chamber. After swapping bodies, Mikan (not in Yami's body) decides to go have some fun while Yami (in Mikan's body) goes home with Lala. A short while later, Mikan is having fun flying in the air, but she soon falls onto a roof when she loses concentration. Meanwhile, Lala and Yami run into the perverted principal, and Yami responds by beating the principal viciously. After beating the principal up, Yami notes that Mikan's body isn't as powerful as her own.

Don't mess with Mikan!

Some time later, Rito walks into the living room and sees Yami (in Mikan's body) sitting there. Rito notices that there's something different about his sister, but Yami states that it's just his imagination. Rito then wonders what's for dinner and Yami prepares a meal using taiyaki as the main ingredient. After forcing down the strange dinner, Rito concludes that there must be something wrong with Mikan today. Meanwhile, Mikan (in Yami's body) is being chased by the perverted principal, and out of desperation Mikan forms a frying pan with her hair and knocks the principal out.

And of course, don't mess with Yami either!

Back at Rito's house, Yami has found a cleaning brush and asks Rito if the brush is a weapon. When Rito explains that the brush is for cleaning, Yami goes to try it out but Rito tells her to go watch TV while he takes care of the cleaning. While Yami watches TV with Celine, Rito walks in and offers Yami some tea. Moved by the gesture, Yami wonders if Rito has always been so kind. Rito is somewhat surprised by the question (since he thinks it's coming from his sister), but he answers that this is what being a family is about. As Rito and Yami enjoy the tea together, Lala is hiding behind the door frame with a smile on her face.

Yami and Mikan switch back to their original body after Mikan returns. Mikan thanks Yami for allowing her to test drive the transformable body, but Yami states that she had a precious experience as well and is actually a little envious of Mikan. Mikan returns home and wonders why all the food is made with taiyaki, which surprises Rito since he thinks Mikan had made the food.

Isn't the taiyaki meal a dead giveaway as to who made it?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This week we have three pretty good segments (by To Love-Ru standards). The first segment about the breast enlargement plan was funny in a dumb, ecchi kind of way. Certainly far from enlightening, but it was naughty and fun. Best part of the segment was Mikan standing outside the door wondering what was going on and deciding it was best not to join in. It was curious that the beginning of the segment was from another chapter from the manga (about Risa trying to lose weight), but Xebecs decided to tack that on as an introduction to Haruna's story.

The second segment was pretty amusing too. Despite his reservations, Rito actually did end up giving Haruna the licking, which meant that he has licked Haurna in several naughty spots. Haruna of course doesn't know that it was Rito, so Rito can savor the little secret experience on his own lol.

The last segment was another Yami-centric story and also the second story in a roll that involves the body switching machine. It's one of the few times where Yami didn't beat up Rito or chase him for any indiscretions, but then again it was the few times where Rito didn't do anything questionable. Other than Rito earning a few more points in Yami's heart by acting as the caring big brother, Yami and Mikan didn't do too much with their switched bodies. The scene where Yami (in Mikan's body) beating up the principal is kind of fun, but it would have been more fun if Xebecs left Nana in the story and had her wondering if Mikan was always this powerful.

Overall, this was an enjoyable episode of To Love. Only thing really to complain about was the inconsistent censoring. They censor panties but not bras, and the groping is only censored some of the time. The censoring is so inconsistent now it's becoming funny. One more comedic element to the show I suppose.
