Alter Shigure Asa :: Grassy field in the evening
As usual, I should have seen it coming. Or rather, I should have heard it coming. The running footfalls approaching from behind. The intake of breadth. Perhaps even the swinging of her arm through the air. There was, of course, no missing either the loud greeting of "HELLO!" and the slap on the back.
'You sure are late going home today!' she chirped.
'You too, Asa-senpai.'
SHUFFLE! Memories 12
Swimsuit fanservice and the relentless waves of humourous scenes! Of course, lots of my favourite character: Asa-senpai, you look gorgeous as always!
SHUFFLE! Memories 5
No new Asa footage in Ep 4 so I've skipped it. Omni's post already covers all the main points anyway.
SHUFFLE! Memories 3
Some commenters on my post about the previous episode were disappointed by the lack of new material, other than the OP/EDs. I'm beginning to suspect that, if the new OPs are a reliable guide, the second episode of each girl's story (?) will be about how each girl gets Rin. Therefore there is a possibility, currently still slight, of seeing Sia, Nerine, Yandere Kaede and *gasp* Primula endings. That last pairing is what causes me to feel that, of course, asread could just be jerking our chains and preparing to spring a SUNRISE on us.
I made my guess above because of the way the Kaede OP ends with her kissing Rin AND now we see Rin forcing Asa to use her magic with some kind of amulet instead of the boxcutter. I'm generally quite a believer in OP?? (fortune telling) - quite a few can be considered to be a good summary of an entire series' plot or of a particular arc. If the OPs for the other girls show the same thing, then my anticipation will grow. The reason for this may be due to the demand from fans of the SHUFFLE! game (which the 24 episode WOWOW broadcast was based on) and that there is considerable demand, given that the SHUFFLE! game apparently sold very well despite being released on the same day as a TYPEMOON release. Thus, each girl's first episode sets up the possibility of her getting together with Rin and then the second one realizes it. Or we could just get recap again and the alternative ending is just confined to the OP.
In any case, big thanks to moyism for providing the raw. 
I'm definitely enjoying the OP/EDs. Loads of Asa screenies follow:
