10 Second Anime - Love Lab - Episode 12

Love Lab - Episode 12


Riko's lies about her being a popular love master are starting to weigh on her conscience. Maki still can't handle boys, but she's learning. Will Riko telling Maki the truth about her loveless grade school days change their friendship?


The newspaper association's underground newspaper won't just have embarrassing pictures of the student council (although it will have plenty of those, heh), but will also have a love advice corner written in the style of a short story. This is their solution to the student council's love advice question problem from the suggestion boxes. The student council will have to come up with a diplomatic way to approve the newspaper association's suggestion.

But, having a regular forum for the love advice questions means that Riko will be relied upon more, and her tacit acceptance of the other girls' misconceptions of her past popularity is weighing down on her. This part doesn't make sense to me, but I can understand how it might be a big deal to younger kids. However, Riko being a tomboy did make her popular among the guys, but as one of their friends, so it does give her the qualification of expert on what boys like in girls. She just wasn't one of the girls they liked, well, except for Nagi when they were in preschool.

Besides, Riko is way popular with the girls in her all-girl school now, although it's as the "Wild One." None of this seems to be a problem to me, but it's apparently a problem to the people who knew Riko in grade school. The best comedies really are much ado about nothing. I think that's a thing or something. Heh.

This is all coming to a head as Riko is finding it harder and harder to keep the secret of her supposed unpopularity (although, come on, everyone knows who she is, so how unpopular could she be?), and one of her friends lets slip about it as Maki is coming to get her. I think in the end, it won't really matter.
