I'm not sure why I didn't crack open this series until now, but in retrospect that was foolish of me. Though I suppose reading all of TFLF in this particular year is somewhat therapeutic in a way.

It seems like the Light Music Club, in all its generations, is a resilient bunch when it comes to over the top weirdness.

I do hope that Mio doesn't hold back too much in her playful abuse of Ritsu when the latter deserves it, that running joke always gave a chuckle. Besides, Ritsu seems to enjoy it on some level.

I wonder if any Hanar or Elcor turn up at DSM?

Congrats to Yui on being adopted by an apex predator with a heart of gold. This also mean that if HTT had any notion of trying to keep a low profile until they got their bearings that's going to be utterly impossible now.

Background minutiae curiosity, is this from the original source, something from Legend of Korra that I don't recall/didn't see (I only watched the first season of that show, Korra was awesome but the rest... less so,) or something else, like a low power version of the witches' familiars perhaps?
