The music made this episode shine.

I love Toyosaki Aki, I think she is a great VA and that her frequently cutesy roles undermine how skilled she really is (seriously, listen to one of her test reels sometime), but even she can't save Nagase Jun.
Chihiro's arc was able to around in the final segment, and really gets to the root of her problem. In retrospect, Chihiro's arc is a pretty good one because it dealt with a realistic problem (hardcore apathy) in a realistic way.
But Nagase Jun is stunningly more boring. She's kind of like the worst dating sim teacher arc ever. Keima got into why teachers are bad in dating sims, and Jun is already turning his plans over on him. That's all well and good, but she lacks everything that would make a teacher arc good...and that is an air of adult sexiness.
Jun is idealistic, immature, and old fashioned, all at once. Nikaidou-sensei, their normal teacher, would be a much better conquest. Nikaidou's kind of the complete opposite of Jun. Jun breaks a stereotype that throws Keima off a bit, but that isn't a good thing here. She feels in every way like a lazy-writing heroine.
What you said may be valid, Ryll - so call me inexperienced in dating teachers (irl or not) as that's true, but I'm already looking forward to more of this arc. Perhaps I'm simply swallowed by her hairstyle and energy. I find the fact that she's throwing Keima off to be a good thing. I was getting a little tired of him knocking (up?) down all the girls one at a time with the same general pattern.

They should have made the conquest about Nikaidou.

i couldn't wait anymore and watched HS. Sue me.
Jun's arc was very enjoyable. Between Jun, Chihiro and Haqua this was a very good season.
Last episode was great because of the other character cameos, specially Kanon singing Uraha Love.
The Season 3 teasing at the end was evil. I want that season NOW
Fun fact, yokkyun was voiced by Sakura from CCS
The Gundam parody made me laugh the most.
In the end though, my favourite girl is Elsie.

OMG, they plagiarized gundam. That was definitely Amuro and Char in that fencing scene.
Peace.
Plagiarize? Wasn't it more of a parody?
edit: er, nvm. you were probably joking...

The only thing holding her back is that all of her scenes make her out to be either useless, child-like or ditzy. Those qualities are fine, but if that's all she gets, you really can't expand on her too much. Give her one serious arc, and she'll win hands down. (looks like she's already getting there anyway).

I have the most pressing urge to pixelate that hotdog...

So the OAV is titled 'Four People and an Idol' ? I expect Kanon to be featured then. Which would mean its an original plot? More Kanon songs is a win.
