The episode concentrates on Tomari coming to terms with Hazumu’s transmorgification and like usagi-san, I’m well pleased with how the story was told. Tomari is hammered by shocks like seeing Hazumu in a girl’s school uniform, having her change in the girls’ locker room but, most of all, by Hazumu’s ready (and I’d say pragmatic) acceptance of himself as herself now. Like Chalcahuite, I agree that Hazumu has a strong predisposition as she was a very girly boy and all but her remaining male characteristics cause Tomari to launch into her Hazumu the Perfect Girl crusade. The bra-buying expedition proves to be the last straw however and she drifts homeward in a melancholy daze but is summoned to rescue Hazumu from the reporters. She then realizes that Girl Hazumu is still very much Hazumu Her Dear Friend and they share a tender moment together. Hazumu then meets her new roommates, the aliens.
