anyway, Haruhi season 2 has started already and it seems that it is having a chronological order in the episodes again. it was nice to see everyone again and it was great to see how it had linked the 1st season with this, time is really a confusing thing when it comes to travelling through time =X

[ISM Flight 2 Anime]

Asura Cryin' 5

Shuri was seen fighting with a white Kurogane-look-a-like and was defeated. On the way back home, Misao and Tomo finds a fainted Shuri in front of his doorstep and quickly brings her in. Tomo follows Misao's instructions in helping Shuri in getting her rest while he was blindfolded. Shuri later wakes up and appears that she has somewhat lost her memories. She was unable to identify Tomo and called herself Kurosaki Yukari. The next day when Tomo wakes up, Shuri still does not appear to remember anything but her strength was still there. Tomo goes to ask Takuma if he knew that Shuri has a twin sister or not and that if he knew a person called Kurosaki Yukari. Tomo and Misao then went to Shuri's house to check it out and Tomo took home some clothes for Shuri to wear when he realised a photo pasted on a board that seemed to have been taken quite recently. Tomo then goes to the church beside the house and finds a person playing the piano in the church. The person tells Tomo that Shuri was adopted 3 years ago which the priest of the church took her in. The person then introduces herself as Suzuki Harayo. Back at Tomo's home, Shuri was having the dream of the white Kurogane-look-a-like being summoned. When Tomo comes home, she shows Tomo a room filled with the white suitcases which she tells Tomo that she had dreamt of it just now. A small doll then appears in front of Shuri and tries to steal the suitcase she was holding. The doll attacked them and kept asking them to hand over the stabilizer. Kanade comes into the house and attempts to stop the doll. It appears that the doll had belonged to Mahiwa and he was on a job to get the stabilizer. Mahiwa successfully takes Shuri and the suitcase but when Tomo summons Kurogane out, Misao disappears again and Shuri regained back her memories after looking at Kurogane. Mahiwa passes the suitcase over to Suzuki and opens it, causing an explosion. Mahiwa was then protected by his familiar and Suzuki, whom Mahiwa calls Hirai-san, was protected by the white Kurogane-look-a-like.

*so Suzuki does not seem to be the real name of the person with the white Kurogane-look-a-like. somehow many series i have watched have things that are of different colours... and somehow the white version of the same thing looks more cool =X the white kurogane-look-a-like seems darn cool too since it uses a sword unlike the kurogane which seems to only use fists (as seen from the OP)... and i just realised that the white kurogane-look-a-like was featured in the OP as well after watching it closely...*

Asura Cryin' 6

Tomo was still sick and Shuri had regained her memories all thanks to Tomo. Tomo then took the chance to ask Shuri who was Kurosaki Yukari. Shuri tries to avoid the subject by saying that she had forgotten and receives a call from the person with the white Kurogane-look-a-like. She tells Shuri that she was going to come to find her and trade with her a letter for the stabilizer. Shuri takes out the real stabilizer and places it into a suitcase and tries to treat the cold that Tomo has since his Kurogane is the only Asura Machina that can match up with the white Kurogane-look-a-like. Shuri also reveals to Tomo that the Suzuki person was You Susugihara. Kanade then suggests that they bring Tomo to Ritsu who might be able to cure Tomo's illness. Shuri takes the suitcase and asks Tomo and Kanade to follow her but meets You in the front gate. Shuri attacks You but was defended by a white hand from her Asura Machina. The Asura Machina appears and Tomo was shocked as it looked like his own Kurogane. The three of them took the chance after an attack by Shuri to escape and goes off in a taxi. Shuri explains that the stabilizer that You was after was a weld part of a Asura Machina and the Berial Doll was representing the sacrifices that the Asura Machina needs. Shuri continues to say that the stabilizer might be the key to liberate the Berial Doll from the Asura Machina. However, You still managed to catch up with them an ability that seem to be able to pass into dimensions and warp into another place. Tomo could not take it anymore due to his illness and Shuri took the chance to take Kanade and Tomo away through flight. Tomo was then treated by Kanade and Ritsu while Shuri takes on You head-on. However she was still unable to defeat You and his Shirogane, the name for the white Kurogane-look-a-like. Misao reappears again and Tomo summons Kurogane out to take on Shirogane. Kurogane was able to fight on par with Shirogane but when the stabilizer flew out of the suitcase due to Shirogane's attack, Tomo asked Kurogane to protect it which led to the stabilizer being absorbed into Kurogane. The battle ends and the embarrassing letter that You wanted to trade was destroyed by Shuri. The next day in school, Takuma shows Tomo that Shuri and Yukari are really twin sisters and then the teacher introduces a new student to the class, Misao, which everyone was able to see her.

*Misao is now able to be seen by everyone just that she was still able to fly and stuff... having 2 similar Asura Machina fighting is quite cool expecially with that large colour contrast... black VS white... so different Asura Machinas have different abilites then. so Shuri and Yukari are twin sisters, now it makes me confused over what exactly happened to them, maybe its related to some plane accident that was seen in Shuri's room...*

Asura Cryin' 7

Tomo now had to ask Misao to act properly as a normal human as to prevent people from finind out that she was actually a ghost. Misao was also very popular in school since she had made a lot of new friends. Meanwhile, You and another person were investigating a ruin where they were met with thr Ruin Guards and led to You remembering some bad memories. She was walking in the ruin with her father which he wanted to show her something that he had found and it was the white suitcase. The Ruin Guards then appeared at that time in front of You and her father and back to the present, You did not want to disturb the Ruin Guards as well and left. Kanade tells Tomo that it was great since now Misao had made many new friends and Tomo was reminded of the past of him and Misao going over to England. Back in the past as well, Shuri was also trying to deceive You by acting as Yukari who had just acted in a movie and that Shuri felt that if Yukari was able to be famous then she would not have to work and the three of the would be able to live together as well. You's father tried to defend You from the Ruin Guards and went off to distract them, leaving the white suitcase in You's hands. At the airport, You meets Yukari and Shuri who tells him that the three of them could go on a vacation together but You said that she was a messenger for her father to deliver the white suitcase to somewhere else. Misao and Tomo were on the same plane as Yukari and Shuri as well and Misao can't wait to see her parents again. The plane then crashed and You wakes up and attempts to try to find the white suitcase. After finding it, she decides to open the suitcase to save one of the sisters and made one of the into a Berial Doll. Yukari was able to survive as well with having mechanic parts exchanged for her limbs and was very happy when she saw You again. You however recognises her as Shuri although she was Yukari and does not think of her as Yukari at all. Back to the present, Tomo asks Shuri again if she was really Shuri at all and she just replied "of course!". Misao also appears to feel more comfortable by Tomo's side and Kanade also senses something or someone following her.

*it was quite a recap episode for the past of the characters and it was great since i now have a better understanding of what really happened in the past. so You had made Shuri into the Berial Doll for his Shirogane and the Shuri now was actually Yukari... anyway i'll refer to Yukari as Shuri since everyone recognises her as that to prevent confusion. it also amazes me that Misao and Tomo were on the same plane as Yukari and the others and is Reishirou on the same plane as well when he rescued Aine? kinda forgot what really happened to Aine... well anyway... You must have preferred Yukari over Shuri (which i'm guessing) since she had turned Shuri into the Asura Machina instead of Yukari as maybe she wanted to see a living Yukari in front of her but does to try to recognise her as Yukari and instead as Shuri since it might be that she does not want her to feel that she had deliberately chosen Yukari over Shuri... so now Yukari is angry about You for making Shuri into the Berial Doll and it might be that the stabilizer played an important role in the Berial Doll and the Asura Machina...*
