Another great drama CD for Ichigo 100%. The only complain I have about it is that they got rid of the catchy tune that they used in the first two CDs and used a remixed version that doesn't sound as good for the intro and cast credits. Like the previous CDs, this follows the manga pretty closely with a little more exposition as it doesn't have visuals to show the listeners. Unlike the second CD, only one of the short stories was insightful into the character. The other one was just a minute long.

The 4th drama CD has already been announced as well as the character image song single. I hope they bring back the Ichigo 100% tune again.

Bonus includes liner notes and a couple of mini-standees.

1. オープニング (Opening): Yui and Tsukasa introduce the show as they look from afar at the incident that happened when Satsuki first met Junpei (chap. 19).

They end up in a position where he's on top of her with heavy boxes on his back. Being the guy he is, he can't allow himself to lay on her, so she tries to wiggle around. She can't get out either, but now her clothes have rolled up a bit from her movements. When Junpei doesn't show up for the next class, Satsuki comes looking for them and find them.
