Tsubasa Chronicle Ep 31 (S2 Ep 5)



This episode wasn't really exciting and I did find it a little slow but it was a sweet episode on Syaoran meeting the young version of his father Fujitaka. Wai, Kuro-sama sugoii~ All the sailors were just so obedient to him. (sasuga! >O<) Fye's reaction to the sushi Sakura and Mokona made was funny too. (kawaii~ ^O^)



Chibi Syaoran kawaiiyo!!! ^O^
Awww he was so timid at that time. How cute. >O<


,,,and it looks like the next episode is going to feature Fye x Chii,
which I'm so looking forward to watch. >_<

Kiba Ep 9



I knew Dumas was going to run away. But the series keeps up its pace with intense plots. We are now introduced with another major character named Rebecca, who is the only survivor of the noble family of Jimoto. Zed is now heading to Jimoto along with Rebecca and her subordinate Elda, in order to defeat Dumas for what he has done.
Hmmmmm,,,,, I have a feeling that there will be a love triangle relationship regarding Zed, Roia, and Rebecca. Also we now know that the full name of Zed's spirit is Amil Gaul. (Zed finally manages to control him. Good boy. ^O^) Anyway I'm so looking forward to the battles at Jimoto.

P.S. I HATE Graujou. That kid is just annoying and evil. (Teach this bad boy some lessons, Hugh!)

xxxHOLiC Ep 8




Honestly, I don't mind about the quality of the series if it manages to bring interesting stories like this. Anyway this episode was just amazing on bringing the theme to stand out. This episode was very dark and once again, it showed a certain foolishness people can have. The equivalent trade reminded me of Full Metal Alchemist. The monkey's paw was freaky though. Anyway the lesson for this episode is that a wish is not something we can bring right away. There must be a cost that has to be given away. I really agree because if we were to achieve something, we all need to take steps and walk on for the goal until it's reachable. Anyway a great episode even though the ending was tragic for the woman, who had the monkey's paw.

P.S. 1) I'm sure most people have noticed Fai's staff being a butterfly-catching tool. lol

2) OMG Just how big is Yuuko-san's bed?

3) I'm just so curious on who really is Himawari. I'm sure she's not an ordinary girl.


Btw from looking at the preview, it looks like the next episode's post is going to be Doumeki-centric. ^_^;;;

Bleach Ep 81




This is getting freaky,,, Like those bug-like dolls called Bittos and the drink that will make Bountous stronger.
-It looks like Shuuhei, Rangiku, Izuru, and Yumichika are coming to the human world (YAY!!! >O<)
-Wai, Soi Fong taichou's yuri power rocks<=-_^;;;
-Wahaha Sado and Noba are just too quiet when together ^O^

,,,and a few things to point out"


The Bountou Power drink makes you feel high and nutty!
Like a commercial. lol


Rangiku-san, kawaissu!!! >O<
This is why I adore her so much. >_<

Tsubasa Chronicle Ep 30 (S2 Ep 4)



It turned out to be a sad, but yet a great episode. Anyway the group returns to the world, where they already visited in the last episode of the first season. They manage to get another feather there but is not able to do anything to stop people from vanishing, after Sakura's wish on bringing them back last time has gone. However, Arashi and Sorata are glad at each other to be able to stay together even on their after life. I always thought Arashi and Sorata are a wonderful couple ever since X. Anyway Yuuko looked totally awesome this episode. (As somebody have mentioned, she looked the closest to xxxHOLiC version) Fye's 'ganbarimasu' was cute too. ^O^

So that was the anime-original episode. Onto the next world!

Gintama Ep 8



First of all, I must mention about the episode counting once again. I noticed that this week's raw episode is named as episode 8. (I guess the first 1 hr episode was really ep 1-2 after all) So yeah, I'm screwed up with the episode counting once again but now I'll go on this way. (I hope I didn't cause too much confusion -_-;;;)

Anyway onto the episode. Wai, what a brilliant way of directing. WHO KNEW THIS WAS GOING TO BE A SHINSENGUMI EPISODE??? @_@ (I guess they noticed my inner feeling as a fangirl lol) The anime original shinsengumi 24 hours thingy was hilarious. (seeing the opening in the middle of the episode was refreshing too) The central plot of this episode was Kondo-stalking-Tae chapter, which was so funny as well. ^O^
Poor Kondo-san,,, Also, Gin-san you coward! This episode even had The class 3-Z Ginpachi-sensei as the omake, which was good too.

,,,and as a fan of Hijikata Toushirou, I kinda have to say this:


HIJIKATA-SAN GAKKOIIYO HIJIKATA-SAN!!! >O<
Geez, what a tough bishie man!


Hijikata-san koeeeee~ TOT
Hijikata-san can be so scary too. But this scene was absolutely hilatious though. (I was laughing so hard lol)

The Third Ep 3




Okee,,,finally the third episode of The Third. (lol) Anyway I will say that the first three episodes were a prologue since the real journey is about to begin from the episode 4. Anyway this episode had both bright side and dark side. The bright side is all the funny scenes involving Honoka's reactions(look how her face goes so red lol). The dark side is the issues involving the world Honoka is living in. It's really tragic that the actions of the people in that planet are so limited by the Thirds. Anyway Honoka and Ikus are now officially going out,,,no, travelling together and I'm looking forward to find out more about the two as they go on.

Another interesting fact to point out is that Joey(the mechanic boy) is actually quite jealous of the two. Well, it's obvious that he has a feeling for Honoka. (This means,,,Love Love Triangle Kita~~~!!! >O<)
The doctor and the nurse named Meilin(she's an android btw) were pretty interesting characters too. (lol the doctor teasing Honoka was hilarious)

Tsubasa Chronicle Ep 29 (S2 Ep 3)




It's been sometime since I blogged Ep 28. Anyway the group finishes their business at Piffle country and Tomoyo actually was supporting Sakura to get her feather back from the very beginning. Anyway Dr. Kyle from Jade country is back. (that bastard,,,) He was actually the one who was aiming for Sakura's feather. (It looks like he's on the bad guys' side now for real) Anyway I'm sure he'll come back to do more evil things but for now he manages to escape. Syaoran's kick-ass action was great as usual but there are some other things that I would like to point out:


Na,,,nante kawaii~~~!!! >O<
There were so many kawaii Mokona goodness in this episode. (That 'chu chu' was totally adorable!) Of course Sakura was kawaii too. ^O^


Hyu~ hyu~ Kuro-sama, gakkoii~~~!!! ^O^
,,,of course there were lots of Kuro-sama smexiness too. He just needs to be a lil more honest. ^O^


,,,also I'm going to spell Faye's name Fye from now one since most people seem to write that way. (which one is official? Fye? Fai? or Faye?)

Kiba Ep 8



(WARNING: Big fat spoiler alert!)

OMG,,,,,who knew the story will be going this way. I thought this series was going too predictable but I really take that thought back.

Who knew Dumas was the bad dude.

,,,also that white flowers that Dumas had, those were evil flowers. (EVIL! EVIL!)
Robes has been a quite annoying dude but I guess he is going to be Zed's ally. Poor Miki,,, He never expected Dumas, who has been taking care of him since he was little, was going to betray him this way. Zed, who's shard has been taken, is now facing Dumas to get his shard back AND his pride back.

,,,I am SO looking forward to watch the next episode.

Demonbane Ep 1




Yet another new spring anime to start. Somewhat interesting theme(magic+mecha), interesting characters(including the psycho villain lol), colourful art style, awesome cg mechas,,, I think I'll be able to enjoy this series a lot and since it's only 12 episodes in total, it's not too bad to follow despite how many animes I'm currently watching. ^O^


Chibi Al-chan kawaiiyo!!! >O<
She's just so adorable. ^O^


Looking forward to see what this machine called Demonbane can do in the next episode.


,,,and there's no guarantee that I'll be keep blogging this. Even if I do, each thread will be very brief since it's a rather difficult series to summarize.

xxxHOLiC Ep 7




xxxHOLiC brings another great episode that has both comedical and dark parts. This series really rocks when Watanuki and Doumeki go on the mission together. (they are just hilarious lol) I'm also glad that they managed to save the girl's soul as well as the flowers that the Rain's sprite was trying to save. I'm wondering why they borrowed the ribbons from Himawari in the first place. Does she have a special power or something? I'm so curious to find out more about her.



A,,,,a,,,a,,,,AH!!!!!
That is Watanuki's way of saying 'arigatou' to Doumeki. lol Gotta love Doumeki's reaction to that. (He's like aw shaddup ^O^)

Bleach Ep 80




I didn't expect a lot on this episode simply because I thought it was just a filler episode. However, I enjoyed this episode a lot and I found it quite funny too. ^O^ Ririn & Kurodo were hilarious so was Kon. They also showed Keigo's ability to see shinigami. (lol Keigo is such a silly guy ^O^) There's nothing much more to says since it was really a filler in a filler arc. But it was a fun watch and it looks like we'll get to see another 1 hour special on May 30th.
[Edited]Oops sorry. There IS Bleach on May 23rd. ^O^;;;[/Edited]



Ahahaha, kawaii~ ^O^
Noba blushing at Rukia like that. He's just so cute. >O<



Nenshin gattai~!!!
The Aquarion parody was hilarious. No wonder Kakazu Yumi(Ririn's VA) and Tobita Nobuo(Kurodo's VA) were casted. (Both of them were in Aquarion including Sugita Tomokazu, who is Noba's VA lol)

Gintama Ep 6




In manga, this episode was the chapter 2(so there was no Kagura in that chapter) but I guess the animators kinda wanted to delay this a bit. Anyway with the request from Hasegawa, the Yorozuya three seek for the missing pet of the prince Hata, which is a purple octopus-like creature. They manage to find and bring it back but when Kagura heat it(WTH was she thinking lol), it turns into a gigantic monster. Uh well, Gintoki then handles it well and turns it into their takoyaki dinner later. (lol) Anyway this episode was alright. But I just found it kinda slow due to the way they stretched one chapter into a whole episode. ,,,and what's up with the next episode preview? I can't figure out what is it going to be about since all they showed us was Gintoki sleeping. -_-;;; To be honest, I want another shinsengumi-related episode.



Dekkai ookina takoyaki desu.
Sorry,,, I just watched Aria The Natural Ep 6 and couldn't help it. ^O^;;;

Kiba Ep 7



I didn't expect much from this episode since it's Zed's turn to lead the story again but it turned out to be pretty interesting. Zed loses to Robes as expected but Zed determines to get back to him since he knows Robes' identity as the thief known as "No-Face". Anyway Zed is stubborn and straight forward as always. -_-;;; Also the new villain characters are introduced. From what I saw in this episode, I think the story will get really interesting from now on, which I'm looking forward to.


Nanjya korya~~~??? -o-
Was this supposed to be funny? This scene totally broke the seriousness. lol To me, it was funny. (Robes was imature enough to do THAT on someone's face while he's asleep)

xxxHOLiC Ep 6



This was a dialogue-wise episode but still powerful on its 'lesson of the week' part. Anyway I think we can easily relate this episode to our society since there are so many people who spend a lot of time on internet knowing that they are spending too mucht time on it. Watanuki was hilarious as always. (Gotta love the way he complains to Yuuko; so funny lol) Yuuko-san was extra sexy this episode and also her questions were so critical that I was actually thinking about the answers myself while watching. Anyway good episode. ^O^

Karin - Impression


Karin kawaiiyo Karin!!! Kenta-kun mo sutekiyo!!! >O<

Finished watching the last episode today and I thought I should make a thread on it briefly. Anyway I enjoyed watching this series a lot because after watching Midori no Hibi, I was hoping to watch another good romance comedy anime and this was pretty much on the line. Overall, the romance part of the anime was pretty well done and the comedic parts were not bad as well. The last episode turned out to be humorous all of sudden after all the serious scenes but the ending turned out to be great, which pleased me. (however I really think the way Victor was defeated was kinda dumb lol) The characters part was actually one of the strongest points(along with the art) of the anime because most of them had their own traits that made themselves unique and standing.

,,,and here's my personal character ranking for this series:

Karin>>Kenta>>Winner>Maki>>Elda>>Anju,Ren>>>>>Others

Bleach Ep 79




This was a very intense episode with so much angst and story development. Yoshino's death was already foreshadowed in the previous episode but I didn't know it would bring such a serious outcome. It looks like Kariya really needed her. Well, to use her will be a better explanation. Yoshino tried her best to fight Kariya by fusing with her doll Geitei but she got defeated. Kariya then used her soul to create new dolls. Anyway this episode reminded me so much of Mai-Otome. (I'm sure a lot of people think so too) Poor Yoshino,,, Poor Uryuu,,, I guess she was an important person to Uryuu as well.

,,,Aside from the angst of the episode, Noba(in his stuffed animal form) was really cute. (Especially the scene where he serves Renji a cup of coffee; kawaissu!)

P.S. Oh and about sleeping Yama-jii in the last screen cap. He just fell in sleep while waiting for Kyoraku. lol

Gintama Ep 5




This week, we get an episode that is more focused on drama than comedy. (although it had comedies as always lol) Anyway father of the super popular idol Tsuu-chan, who is a criminal, comes to watch her first concert. However, he made a promise back then about bringing her one hundred roses if she gets to perform for the very first concert. Anyway it was good to see Shinpachi in action. Tsuu-chan was very kawaii too. (voiced by Takahashi Mikako; gotta love her kawaii voice >O<) This episode had an omake too but it wasn't really funny in my opinion. (but Gin-san looked good in blond hair ^O^) Oh and the 3D car chasing scene was funny because the CG reminded me of Zegapain. (which is also by Sunrise)



Fuusen Gum, Kucha Kucha~
Chewing a bubble gum just like the ending lyric. lol (Gin-san, gakkoii~~~ ^O^)

Anyway the next episode seems like they are going to introduce Hasegawa and the ugly prince. From looking at the preview, I think they are going to do half anime original or something. (Which I don't mind at all as long as they make it funny)

Kiba Ep 6



Angst,,, More angst,,, Gale was not the only one that has turned against Kis and Aisha. It was really Neotopia that they lived in. With the continuation of the restrictions, the village of Rato slowly fades away as Noah screams at the silent flame burning. It was not just Noah, who has done it. The people of Neotopia have destroyed themselves.
This episode was so tragic,,, Now what will Noah become of?


Noah, koeeeeeee!!! TOT
The Kaede Syndrome(from Shuffle!) has even affected Kiba. Is Noah gonna get the next bi-polar personality character reward?

Tsubasa Chronicle Ep 28 (S2 Ep 2)



We continue from where we left off in the previous episode. Syaoran and the others believe that the culprit of the interruptor at the race must be one of the 10 people, who have passed the first round. Anyway things seem quite suspecious around them,,, (I'm sure the other viewers think so too) ,,,and I realized that they edited a lot of things from the manga. (I have read the beginning of the dragonfly race part; where is drunken Sakura scene???) Anyway in the real round of the race, Faye's machine gets broken due to another interruption and Syaoran's machine gets crushed while trying to save Ryuuoh's. Anyway yeah pretty intense episode and since I didn't read the conclusion of this arc in the manga, I am looking forward to see the outcome.

xxxHOLiC Ep 5



I felt like watching a fable while watching this episode. Anyway it was another good episode featuring shiritori(word game). The little fox was so adorable too. >O< Anyway thanks to the arrow given by Doumeki and shiritori game played with Mokona, Watanuki was able to accomplish his task to deliver the birds to the fox-san(not to eat; to keep I mean) safely at night. The part where Watanuki was staring at the shadows approaching him reminded me of Mushishi though. ^_^;;; Anyway Watanuki really should be thankful to Doumeki this episode for the arrow. (Just take it with graditude lol)
The next episode seems quite intriguing from the preview, which I'm looking forward to watch. ^O^

Free Talks

Okee,,, I've been quite busy recently. But IT'S WEEKEND, WHEEEEEEE~!!! Anyway...I just wanted to do some random gibberish since I'm bored now.

1. Anime-related - Prince of Tennis Nationals OVA Ep 1

Watched this last week. ^_^; I kinda wanted to blog this but I didn't have a lot of time last week and also the animation quality wasn't impressive so I'm just making a short entry on this here. Anyway Ryoma is back from USA and is ready to rock again. ;;; Gosh, those spoiled boys from Higa jr high seriously need some lessons,,, Anyway it was quite enjoyable to watch and I'm definitely looking forward to watch the next episode, which will be released on May 26th. (a LONG wait, eh?) By watching this OVA, I'm into Tenipuri again enough to read the latest chapters of mangas. I kinda like Shitenhouji jr high. ^__^ (but not Gintarou;;; he's one spoiled kid -_-;;;)


Prince is back! As you can see, the drawing is different since Production I.G. has taken over the project. I felt awkward while watching this because I'm so not used to the drawing. -_^;;;


Saeki gakkoissu!!! ^O^
But Rokkaku lost to Higa so bad. T_T


2. Manga-related - MAR vol.13

OMG!!!!! The whole volume was just so interesting that I was like @_@ for the whole time while reading. So many shocking truth and stuff,,, Gosh, I want to read vol.14 right now...
-Who knew Kimera was a ****
-So Halloween really knew Aran long time ago. (Even before 6 years that is) ;;;
-Poor Rolan,,, I hope he gets out of the Chess too. (he was omega kawaii on the back cover pic though)
-Dorothy-chan, too much fanservice! -_^;;;
-IAN GAKKOIIYO IAN!!! >O< I demand for more Ian air time!!!
