Rikei ga Koi, Episode 9: Science Tried Going to Okinawa

Rikei ga Koi‘s beach episode in Okinawa! Shinya and Ayame’s experiment became even more exciting with their swimsuits revealing bare skin.

Proof 9: “Science-types Fell in Love, So They Tried Attending a Training Camp in Okinawa.”

Hmm.

I thought my body was ready for the Rikei ga Koi beach episode. I was wrong! I couldn’t handle seeing Ayame in a red bikini. She looked good. She looked really good! But her act of repeatedly opening and adjusting her wrap was too much. She looked like she was in a perpetual act of disrobing, which gave me so many beautiful visuals. However, the loving appreciation shots of Ayame’s beauty only chipped away at half my defenses.

Remember, the main goal of Shinya and Ayame for the trip to Okinawa was to hold each other and take saliva samples. After Ayame’s perfect body overwhelmed Shinya’s senses, he found himself discussing skin surface contact optimization with the other Rikei ga Koi characters who came to spy on their first attempt at bikini “skinship.” The rapid-fire changes of snuggling positions, all with the Ayame model wearing her red bikini, were funny and sexy. I say again, my body was not ready for the inflection point in that comedy bit.

Meanwhile, Rikei ga Koi still had to put on a beach episode, so all the common plot devices were here. There was even a nice callback to some characters from Shinya and Ayame’s date. That gave Ena and Kosuke a chance at playing their own version of the love interest rescuing a girl from unwanted attention. That’s good relationship development between the other possible couple on the show. Best of all, the beach episode isn’t over yet! We’ve got at least one more episode of Rikei ga Koi‘s cast wearing skimpy outfits in Okinawa as they do science-type things.

Heh.

Kosuke is a hardcore otaku. He brought his waifu Aika-chan with him on the plane ride! Uh, Shinya and Ayame are going to set off that metal detector. Nice plane. The episode title has to be the longest one so far. Gah! Shinya hasn’t made any progress becoming a normal person during Rikei ga Koi‘s season. Please don’t ask a woman to drool into a test tube in public. Yamamoto is loving this dialog, though. “We can’t. Not here.” Kyaa~! I like how the Newton force meter has become a running gag for smacking someone in the head for inappropriate behavior.

Ayame is a woman with needs. Needs to cuddle! Too bad Shinya still can’t do anything related to love outside the confines of an experiment. They should have just stipulated the drunk love declaration so they could do all the snuggling they want.

Ah. Let’s waste some time talking about how we don’t know how wings generate lift. The point of this discussion is that Ayame feels like an air particle separated from a close partner by a wing and must wait until the flight is over to be reunited for cuddling. No head pats or shoulder snuggling until they land in Okinawa!

Enough of that, it’s beach time for Rikei ga Koi! Holy cow! Ayame showing bare shoulders again. Holier cow! Shinya without a lab coat! Nice 5-star resort. Paid by Yamamoto? Who’s now broke? Anything for her art, she says through bloody tears.

Hahaha! Kosuke brought his waifu to the beach! Ikeda is buff and ripped. Kotonoha is cute. There she is! Ayame in a red bikini! She’s 2.34 times as beautiful, says Shinya! These Rikei ga Koi kids are adorable. They like each other so much and want the other to reciprocate so much! It’s too much! Ah. The indoor types are dressed similarly and both hate the heat.

Har. Shinya is pale compared to Kosuke and Ikeda, but this borders on bullying. Shinya the reflector board. He should join the photography club as an assistant…

Everyone’s a perfect 10 in the eye catch except Shinya, who’s a watermelon 3. Is he cubing a binary number? 170³ is 4,913,000, for whatever that’s worth.

Eh. These flashy guys again. Who are they going to bother this time? Nice. He learned his lesson, so he won’t bother Ayame anymore. Well, let’s see how Rikei ga Koi handles the watermelon splitting. Fun! Uh, I mean, nerds! Ena insists on calling out directions to the blindfolded in polar coordinates. Good for Kosuke. Without a unit of measurement, these complex numbers are crap. Ikeda knows he has incomplete information, but he can convert that complex number into an angle and just… what did he just do? He didn’t walk over to the melon. He split it from the origin point!

Here we go, here we go! Shinya is literally making Ayame drool for him. Time for naked skin contact! And they chickened out. Just thinking about cuddling in swimsuits was too much stimulation.

There’s already some nice cosplay of Ayame, but when do we get the red bikini versions? Oh boy. Here’s the Rikei ga Koi peanut gallery to watch over the proceedings, or lack thereof.

Oh no. I can see where this is going. We’re going to end up with some freaky sex positions, I just know it. All this discussion, yet Ayame is just waiting to get some cuddle time. These positions maximizing surface contact area are running off the rails. Figure four leglock! What is happening here? Nononono! Crotches in faces are a no-no, Shinya-kun! Hold on, Ena just raised an important point in Rikei ga Koi. In Ena’s backstory, she used to hug a big-chested girl! And there it is. Fujoshi girls argue for BL cuddling! Aw. Ayame just wants some cuddling now.

Ah. We’re going to have a moment dedicated to Ena and Kosuke. Har. Ena had to ruin such a lovely childhood memory at the beach. Oh, so those flashy guys are going to hit on Ena and Kosuke will have his own rescue scene. Ha, Kosuke called the video game scenario correctly, but he’s still overprotective of his Ena-chan. Ena just got another precious memory with her Torasuke.

Epilogue time. Ikeda claims all the top minds in science are monsters physically too! Just what is going to happen at these science paper presentations in Rikei ga Koi’s next episode?
