Lucky Channel is a additional small show segment at the end of every Lucky Star episode. The segment is co-hosted by Akira Kogami and her assistant Minoru Shiraishi. The humor of this segment takes on a decidedly darker, mean-spirited, more cynical and mature tone than the main show, disguised as an infomercial that skims over characters who appear in the anime, but mainly deals with the progressively abusive and violent work-relationship between Akira and Minoru. There is a live Lucky Channel episode at the end of the OVA.
[edit] Stories
There are lots of different stories in Lucky channel. The channel itself starts as a happy-go-lucky like channel, with Akira being nice and happy. In some episodes, she announces that she will appear in the show, but never does. In episode 12, a carton cut-out of her appears, and in the Lucky channel episode of episode 12, she gets angry at Minoru for her being sick and not able to appear in the show. At the end of anime, she actually does appear. In another episode, Akira tells Minoru to go to Mount Fuji and get her some water from a stream. This results in Minoru not appearing in some episodes. When Minoru gets back, his physique is shown as one that just came back from a jungle-like area and has been mauled by a bear, considering the back scratches.. Minoru then gives Akira the water, and she claims that the water is too warm, resulting in Akira throwing the bottle at Minoru. Minoru proceeds to yell at Akira because of his hard work and that he was very tired.
