[details=Spoiler]So he rejected girls one after the other all for a temporary love affair with his sister? He even acknowledged he’d never be this popular ever again in his life. I don’t understand how they expect to go back to being normal siblings. He shouted that he loved his little sister multiple times in public at the top of his lungs. There’s no way that his parents or random acquaintances won’t find out about it.
Still, I’m glad they actually went with an incest route instead of leaving it ambiguous like everything else. Ridiculous drama and cringe-worthy speeches galore[/details]
[details=Spoiler]They weren’t normal siblings in the first place, she was all over him from day 1. And likewise for him when she exposed herself as the eroge brocon that she was. I know they wanted to leave it open afterwards which is why they went with this “we only want to have fun for this short period of time and then go back to normal” but him using his wish to kiss her at the end and her running off smiling afterwards clearly shows that their feelings for each are still there. This incest ain’t going anywhere, it’s here to stay folks.
Did not like how they played that harem card at all. Girls just throwing themselves at him one by one for no good reason at all other than being the only male presence they have in their lives. Typical, generic harem fanfare. [/details]
[details=Spoiler]I knew he’d do the draw bullshit again. Anak getting a chance to put up a fight was cool, but she was still getting beat to the punch by Ran. Should have been Ran’s victory, but Anak learned her lesson I guess…
Well, the only surprising thing was that it was Parakewl who caused the double KO .[/details]
Watched Motoko Shinkai’s Garden of Words and it was so beautiful both literally and figuratively. Motoko Shinkai movies are so bitter sweet for me. I highly recommend people check out this movie.
I caved and ran through all SnK eps from that shitty recap up till now… and from then the plot has been moving at a snail’s pace. Looks like some actual progress is gonna be made next week finally. The first half of the series was so explosive in comparison I hope it picks up
**Really ** liking blood lad. As far as the first two episodes, it’s like a rad mix of Soul Eater and FLCL, and doesn’t take itself seriously. It’s beautiful, nicely animated and has a really interesting cast
Dangan Rapey is actually getting kind of interesting now.
Spoiler
All the kids knew each other before they were locked in the school, it seems. How come they don’t remember? Did they lose their memories when they passed out at the gates (episode 1), or is it something else? Who is Monobear, and who is the agent? I thought Celes was the agent after that one episode where Monokuma was talking to the veiled agent while drinking tea, but the latest episode blew that theory up. Would be beyond fucked up if Kirigiri is the agent.
Yeah, Makoto Shinkai’s movies are too godlike. His music guy, TENMON, is a wizard. Those two are like the younger counterparts to Miyazaki and Joe Hisaishi.
Latest episode of Fate Kaleid kicked ass. I liked the fight between Saber Alter and llya Archer. The rearranged F/SN tracks during the battle was a great bit of fanservice
Kingdom Season 1 CG is ass. Kingdom Season 2 ditches the CG and goes back to regular animation.
Yeah, the composer for his movies are so good and it’s usually the subtle pieces that get to you the most. The piano melody that’s used sparingly throughout the movie was astounding. The ending theme is so moving with the lyrics just being perfect for the movie. The music queue for the ending theme in the final scene was perfect as well. I think for me the order of Shinkai movies is Beyond the Clouds > Garden of Words > 5 CM > Children who Chase Lost Voices > Voices of a Distant Star
5CM could interchange with Garden of Words as well. I think he has some other movies that I haven’t seen as well.
[details=Spoiler]I had to convince myself that the traced Excalibur was only able to defeat the original one only because it was corrupted, although I still don’t completely buy into that 100% lol
Ilya magically transforming into Archer I’ll chalk up as big brother future Shirou/Archer looking out for his little step sister. [/details]
I kinda think watching F/SN anime ain’t so bad now after all if it means you can enjoy works more solid series from the Fate franchise that they make in the future.
