----------------------------------------
I watched the anime first, so I had a general idea of what would happen in this episode. There were some differences, though. I'm guessing Tamaki carrying Haruhi was added to remind us he's a love interest and that this could turn into a potential love triangle.
Tamaki's an idiot with a bleeding heart, but when it comes to his friends, he'll get serious and make sure there are results. I like that about him.
Also, the ending panel was hilarious.
