Kurogane on Shana S 01

If I had a meido like Wilhelmina, I'd charge her melonpan every day and night too

The first line of his post sums it all up in the spirit of fun that this episode embodies:

Yeah, it’s the body-switching OVA of lulz and Shana dere-dere.

The increasing proportion of Shana dere-dere is one of the two main reasons why my impression of this series has improved over time. The higher proportion of traditional over modern tsundere allows me to feel that there is progress in the Shana x Yuuji relationship, the seeming lack of which contributed to my giving up on Zero no Tsukaima.

The other main reason is, of course, the glory that is Shana-tan: with seiyuu-based Hayate no Gotoku and ToraDora references and even an Index crossover on a studio/publisher basis in the latest installment (Shana-tan Revenge).
