Nisekoi S2 Episode 7

So the Nisekoi freshmen finally makes an official debut at Raku's school, and Haru makes her debut as the female MC of the episode. Yes, she made a cameo in the first season's ova and episode 6.


HaruHaru, as she is affectionately known and forgotten in the current Nisekoi manga chapters, is Kosaki's little sister. Having a major part in the season's opening will hopefully give her a fuller role than that of the manga. I'm guessing the author does not want her to upstage her older sister.


This episode revolves around Haru's antics and her attempt to defend her sister's honor against the villainous Raku - who has the biggest harem in the school par none. Namely, the school's top three beauties - Chitoge, Kosaki and Marika in that order.  Or switch Tsugumi with Marika if you're a fan of big boobs.

We also see Paula, who became a classmate:


Very soon, the Onodera blood in her causes hijinks to occur - mainly in the form of seduction/attraction to Raku. And its true that all the female members of the Onodera family has a liking for him - Haru unknowingly at this stage.




Somehow or the other, Haru's skirt has a tendency to flip right in front of Raku, giving him a view of a pretty belly button and panties. And this happens during serious moments, like when Haru is declaring her incestuous lesbian sister off limits, spoiling the effect completely.  Luckily she was wearing pants in episode 6.


Here's hoping that she might wear bunny panties sometime later.

Plastic Memories Ep 5

And in this episode, we choke kids!


Nah, Marcia's holding his collar. Back in episode 4, we see bucktooth there trying to get a hold of Marcia, and runs into her right after meeting the kid. The expected happens and soon we have the whole gang searching for her through the city.


Besides numerous safety violations that would give any safety specialist a fit, we get a couple of mercenaries in a civilian city. So i guess the police got phased out in the future,








and they are packing some heat:








Lucky our heroes have their own weapons - totally civilian and user friendly:

Looks like a cheap tazer to me
Pretty soon, we're treated to a spectacle of what happens when our Giftias go red, both in a flashback and on the scene. They get super speed and super strength, in addition to the ability to jump up walls of buildings. I wonder who approved these extremely safe androids to be used, must be a govt officer high on some quality crack that i would give an arm and leg to smoke.

At least enchant the lightsaber, Isla.....make it +9, you'll need it

Isla, is cute and that is about it. She's supposed to be able to do what Marcia is doing with her limiter off - which i suppose the team should have taken care of once they found bucktooth punched in the face. She proves hardy - taking a body blow from Marcia and remains standing but damaged.

This gives Tsukasa to chance to test his new toy:

Psycho pass time



 



And almost hits Isla, who's trying to flank Marcia and get some payback.









She didn't give you a thumbs up sign......awwww

Besides suspending my disbelief that the peashooter could get a Giftia moving at its full speed, i guess i enjoyed the episode. I suppose Marcia could have avoided the shot and wrecked both Isla and Tsukasa's arses, proceed to wipe out Libra...oh wait wrong show, if she wasn't busy choking kids.

Show by Rock Episode 5

So Cyan finally spills the beans


That certainly took her long enough, considering she hasn't been doing anything of what she was supposed to do in the first place. Not that she has any say in the matter, since its either "save the world" or "don't go home". This theme is quite commonly used in anime - get sent to another world - solve their problems, and either stay or come back. Memories of Seven Kingdoms and Fushigi Yuugi come to mind. Not that I have any idea of the details, besides a shadow organization and monsters running rampant.

I don't know if she has an obligation to tell her band members about who she really is, unless Retoree wants to marry her. Does that count as bestiality or furry?


Not that it really matters that she's from another world, since they all speak Japanese somehow, which must be a constant running gag for these kind of story lines. Some anime do take that into account and maybe magic is cast - if it is available. Maybe Show by Rock's whole world is a Japanese game, so no language barriers.

Hmm, a pattern....





I'm guessing Plasmagica is quite a long way from getting a visit from the skeleton boss.








Here's to Cyan getting out of her depression and becoming a real catgirl savior.

A Brief look at Progress

None, unfortunately.

It has been a few days since i started this blog, and things are turning out as bad as i expected. I cannot meet the standard of more established blogs or dedicated sites, nor can i write even a decent review.

I should be enjoying this and yet i feel a sense of apprehension when i add new content in. So a few changes will be made.

Spoilers, i'm going to assume that most people will have watched the anime because i'm not going to give the synopsis as it is painfully boring and i don't like returning to elementary school. I'm not going to summarize the show. Its hard to write anything if you cannot reveal anything about what happens, and i'm not the PV writer anyway.

Per episode posts are unlikely for me as i like to be able to comment upon the whole story arc - which may span episodes, not bits here and there. I may write a comment right in the middle of an anime i have not even commented on. Its going to be completely random.

As for commenting about art, direction and other stuff, even after watching anime for 10 over years does not make me an expert. I don't produce, direct or draw the stuff, so no expertise to judge it.

I'm not going to call the posts a review, people can get them from everywhere else. 
 
Lastly, a big "Thank you" to the 72 people that have laid eyes upon this start.

Kekkai Sessen Episode 5

Another episode of mindless action arrives as our reluctant hero continues his adventures in the band of Libra.

At least her expression tells you differently
We start with MC's love interest - White, being pissed at him for some reason. White is the girl MC met during his stay in the hospital, and it seems he's visiting her regularly. She does not seem to have any obvious sickness, nor is her background explained at this point. She is somehow connected to the blonde kid in episode 4, having a similar appearance - blonde hair with green eyes.





As always, there is trouble in New York City, the kind that you get when you cross parallel worlds. This time it comes in a form of a truck - the kind the Japanese seem to be fond of. I suppose they should include it as a copyright or as a standard random encounter in their games.



Love is like a truck, they say, and it hits you with a force of a thousand suns.













Without going too much into details, our MC and his band of brothers in right in the middle of hot soup as our truck of love goes on a rampage through the city. They are also the only ones who can deal with the problem, as the police proves their ineffectiveness.














Or when push comes to shove, you could always falcon punch.


That is all for now, guess we have to wait for a few more episodes to know about White.
