Baka to Test to Shoukanjuu was another WOW! episode ._. this time not full of Hideyoshi's shots but of Yoshii's sister (well, not ALL the epicness comes from her...) so it begins with Yoshii's sister, Akira, returning from overseas to check on Yoshii whether he is still eligible to continue to live alone. He of course, has rules he had to abide and points he had to retain in order to stay alone and Akira had started to minus off those points when she discovers "unintended" books around or when he comes into contact with the opposite sex, although she's completely fine with if Yoshii meddles with the same sex ._. Due to this wierd sister, Yoshii decides to ask to stay over at Yuuji's place, however, at the wrong time...

Shouko: Allow me to check ur phone to see if u are cheating on me...
*Yuuji squirms due to his eyes being repeatably damaged*
"Hm... it seems that u have more messages from Yoshii as compared to mine, i suspect u're having a relationship with him..."
*buzz... incoming message"
"Hey, can i stay over at ur place? i dont really wanna go back to mine today..."
*taser sparks*

EPIC-ness XDDD

well, in the end, Yoshii brought everyone over to his house, due to multiple misunderstandings, and they discovered the fact that Yoshii's sister was there. Himeji and Minami had both suspected that Yuuji was having a relationship with someone but it turns out to be just his sister. It was later revealed by his sister that Yoshii has a fetish with ponytail girls with big er... size... so Himeji immediately went to attempt to tie her hair into a ponytail... this does seem quite obvious that she likes Yoshii, but purely i tink Yoshii is just so stupid to not "see" it, maybe in the next episode perhaps... which does hint about love letters O.o lots of Yuuji-turned-black-and-white face ard in this episode, which are all equally epic and Himeji's self-denial with cotton puff for make-ups becoming fish cake ._. nonetheless an entertaining episode XD

Ookami Kakushi is really getting better and better now =X much much more details are revealed in the latest episode and the secret of the town was actually written as the Jouga counting rhyme which Kaname discovers. Hiroshi is locked up with Nemuru who seems to be uncomfortable with Hiroshi being so near and due to his request, Nemuru decides to reveal the secret of the town to him. Basically, Nemuru are of a kind which could be known as the Jouga and the fallen ones were basically referring to Hiroshi and those Jougas who prey or attack the fallens will be dealt accordingly as the rule states. It is said that each fallen emits a certain scent where only Jougas are able to pick it up and it is known as "temptation" to them. And incidentally, Hiroshi's scent is exceptionally strong. Believing in the fact that Nemuru would not hurt him, Hiroshi unties Nemuru but she suffers even more as she is restraining herself from going after or attack Hiroshi. Kaname overhears the situation and goes off with Hiroshi's father to look for both Hiroshi and Nemuru and with the aid of Nemuru's father, they are able to locate them with Hiroshi being unhurt and Nemuru being able to restrain herself from the "temptation". Im not really entirely sure if my explanation is 100% correct but its smth like that... they might explain more in the next few episodes or so... at least we now do know wad exactly is happening in the town and the rule that they abide by... Isuzu is also shown at the back part of the episode, on the hospital bed, which is suspect it to be at the Center. Now a Hiroshi X Nemuru pairing does seem even more possible, unless they do not decide to shift this into a partial romance anime ...

argh... DGM's getting more confusing =X Kanda and Alma's past are still being told and more details about the 2nd exorcist project was also given. Looks like i'll have to read them through one more time when this arc comes to an end...

Sora no Woto 9 had the leg-less tank being sent out of the garage but was not made to go into combat. Rio acted wierd all day after she'd got a call from her father, as what Filicia suggested to be. Claus later comes by and gives Rio a delivery which she hesitated on opening it. Yumina later comes over to request for the help as Seiya had went missing in the typhoon which made everyone to go into town and search for him. Kureha managed to find him trying to protect the eggplant which Yumina likes and with Claus's help, they are able to persuade into bringing Seiya to safety but Kureha and Claus were trapped due to a landslide. As the situation got worse, Kureha somehow realises that the man wasnt really the Claus she had admired, which Rio reveals to Kanata previously and seeing how dangerous the situation is, Noel decides to use the tank to shoot an anchor wire over and pull them in. The "Claus" knows that Kureha admires him and thus protected her and brought her to safety which Kureha affirms again that he is a man that she looks up to. I dun really tink the tank's gonna be fixed any time soon, or maybe for the entire series, but this episode wasnt that bad, much development on Kureha and Claus and the princess had already passed on and could have triggered some memory in Rio when she saw the river and thought of the princess...

HnG reveals now that Hayate did have the stone when he 1st ventured into the castle where A-tan resides in and when he leaves, he meets his brother (as in the previous volume), where his brother takes out the stone and hears someone calling for help. He follows the voice to the castle and sees A-tan there where he walks up to her and tells her that she was calling for help and he had heard it. Well, im really interested in seeing how Hayate's brother really looks like (although i do have a feeling that he's just gonna look like the Hayate now) and what relationship did happen between A-tan and Hayate's brother. Really hoping for a nice conclusion to this arc and the aftermath of it, with A-tan now being rescued and Nagi, after losing her inheritance.

wow... Ookami Kakushi is turning out to be quite a decent anime now =D Nemuru had released Kaname on her own accord and gives her a warning that she should stop dragging herself into the mess by investigating the secrets anymore and also reveals that their are of the Jouga wolf species. Kaori had also left her home, perhaps due to the advancement in her "stage" and is taken to the shrine while wearing the masks of the hunters. The Center is also currently trying to produce a vaccination to prevent the impulses felt by the other species of "human" and Hiroshi is labeled as a Mitsu, which could be someone that has certain interference with the "law" they had in the village. Nemuru manages to prevent Hiroshi from getting caught by the other hunters and was dismissed as a result as she had went against the order. But when she heard that Hiroshi was captured, she goes out to look for him but was ambushed by Sakaki who had planned to lure her out. Nemuru was then captured when she was knocked unconscious by traps laid by Sakaki and locked up in a house. Since Hiroshi had went to Sakaki before and told him that Nemuru had once rescued him, Sakaki promised Hiroshi that he'll show Hiroshi the truth and locked him in the same house where he discovers Nemuru being binded. So Nemuru did had a soft side of her, although her face was always so cold... would be better if she'd smile more =X So Sakaki seems to be the bad guy now after capturing Nemuru and perhaps wanting Hiroshi to see the other side of Nemuru as a hunter to prove that she was a monster as what he had told Hiroshi and Sakaki would most probably not let Nemuru go easily as she was the one who had killed a person that was close to Sakaki as part of the law. Will be waiting for the future episodes.. having high hopes XD

So it seems that Haruue was a child error after all... and the person she was looking for was another child error who was "experimented" under Kiyama in the past and had probably lost her life. At the start, Kuroko was already suspicious about Haruue as she was all acting wierd, talking to someone who wasnt there and not remembering the incident at all, and went to the databank to check on her info where she and Misaka finds out that she was only a Level 2 esper who is capable of telepathy BUT her ability could become more powerful than her current level if she's exposed to certain wavelengths. Misaka had also suspected Kiyama as the Poltergeist incident was related to the RSPK syndrome which was related to the AIM dispersion fields and Kiyama was responsible for AIM incident in the past. Kuroko ruled out that suspicion as Kiyama was already detained. When Uiharu and Haruue were out together, another earthquake occurred just after Haruue started to act all wierd and was brought to the hospital. As Kuroko had suspected her, she was brought to MAR for further investigation by the head, Telestina. At MAR, Telestina tells them that she is definitely not responsible for the poltergeist incident and knows that she's unique when she's exposed to certain wavelengths. When Haruue later wakes up, Misaka sees the photo in the locket, the person who she is searching for, is the child error that was under Kiyama's experiment and she herself was a child error as well. WELL, taken into consideration that Kiyama was "seen" in the previous episode, this arc definitely has something to do with her and the child errors. The person whom Haruue is looking for is most probably gone, unless she was miraculously rescued by Kiyama (unlikely) and she is always saying that she can hear her voice, which is possibly due to Kiyama's influence on the AIM field. The next arc does seem to have something to do with Level 6 but i doubt it'll cover accelerator so thats out of the story... most probably it'll be smth to do with Kiyama / child errors...

just saw this from a thread on SGcafe:



this is really awesome =X maybe i shall really watch Gundam 00 =/ (when i have the motivation to rush through 2 seasons that is...)

and heres another wonderful song by Alstroemeria Records, which brought by Bad Apple:



this the sorta theme for Utsuho Reiuji =X nice song
Baka to Test to Shoukanjuu's 8th episode didnt contain much hilarious antics this time round and was rather serious in a sense. It starts with someone trampling with the Summoning System and disconnected one of the wires which caused the entire system to become unstable. When Yoshii attempts to summon his being, a huge number of his being appears around the school while the others had their beings obtaining an adult form. And somehow, the adult version of Yuuji and Tsuchiya's beings seems to have a relationship with each other and that causes Shouko to flare up. Tsuhiya even went over to Himeji's adult being and sticks his camera into the hologram:

"I wonder if i could get a nude picture from this"
"Good thinking! Voyeur!"
...
"Skeletal ..."

That was pure epic =/ well, so Yoshii was given the mission to use his summoning being, using his own iron bracelet to create his own field, to connect the wire back. The 1st mission wasnt successful as he encounters Yuuji's and Tsuchiya's beings (the student's beings are all out of control and evil after the unstability of the summoning system) along the way and was defeated. He then took many easy tests to boost up his points before continuing the mission and defeats Yuuji, Tsuchiya and Hideyoshi's beings. Just when Yoshii's being was close on completing the mission, he was ambushed by Minami and Himeji's beings and as he is able to feel the pain of the being on himself, Yoshii was nearly defeated but manages to defeat the powered-up Himeji's being when Himeji went to submit a blank test to revamp her points to zero. Yoshii successfully completes the mission but was also sent to extra lessons with Himeji as well. This episode wasnt particularly hilarious but was still serious and was more focused on the beings this time round as well. Himeji's being (after having the power up), really seemed quite cool. I do see some parodies this time round with Tsuchiya's left geass eye when handing a photo of Hideyoshi as a waiter to Yoshii and a evangelion styled setting with the attempt to breach the summoning system (being similar to that in NERV) and the explosion (the Angel's attack / downfall)... next episode seems to another funny episode after seeing the preview :D

Bakemonogatari's 14th episode has arrived after quite a long time, with the continuation of the Tsubasa Cat arc. Apparently, Shinobu is missing and as she was needed to seal away the oddity of Hanekawa, Araragi goes off to search for her, while in the meantime asking for the help of the others as well. Senjougahara didnt help Araragi this time round as she was helping out with the school festival as requested from Hanekawa and since the oddity had appeared from Hanekawa's stress, Araragi let her be and goes of looking for Shinobu. The Cat caught up with Araragi, apparently having gotten away from Oshino, suggests to help Araragi to find Shinobu and Araragi discovers that he had been looking at Shinobu as a little girl ever since and the Cat adds on that a human and an oddity can never be friendly with each other. She then tells Araragi that Shinobu wasnt the only way to seal her away and another way was to remove the stress, in which Araragi was shocked to hear that the stress wasnt Hanekawa's family problems, but was the fact that Hanekawa was in love with Araragi. So the next episode would conclude this series and the arc as well, still love their animation style too =X shall be waiting for it...

Railgun's anime has moved on to the next arc: The Poltergeist arc, which does have smth to do with Kiyama sensei yet again. I really dun tink the series would move on to the sister's arc, which is from the manga, since i believe this series is going to have ard 24/25 episodes. So it'll possibly end by this arc. Anyway, the child who had the locket DOES SEEMS to be one of the child errors that Kiyama sensei had experimented on in the past and had miraculously survived. Since she was whispering where was a person, as though she was searching for someone. It was also explained that the Poltergeist event was caused by the RSPK syndrome which have connections with the AIM dispersion fields that Kiyama sensei had dominated before. Even she was shown at the same location as the child, Haruue-san. Looks quite a promising arc too :)

HnG current Athena arc shld be ending in a couple of chapters and i really do hope for some relationship to bloom between Hayate and A-Tan =P anyways, Midas is now gone and the latest chapter is just the buildup after the fight and A-Tan telling Hayate that she would tell him about what happened after he left the castle 10 years ago. I really am curious about the situation 10 years ago and A-Tan's really cute in the latest chapter XD

Sora no Woto's episode 8 was another light-hearted episode. So the platoon got a mission to test the phone they had. whether if it was still in working condition or not. So when Kanata asked about this very important mission, as Kureha emphasises, Noel replied "watching the phone" ... BUT Kanata still took up the mission and sat there at the table, looking at the phone. After some close-calls with the phone nearing dropping onto the floor, Kanata had to resist from going to the restroom until someone got back as they had all left to settle some things. Noel was still somewhere in the house but was nowhere to be found. Rio then returns to find a flustered Kanata who rushes for the restroom immediately and THEN, the phone call came. Rio picked it up and hears a familiar voice who asks her to protect the country. Kanata, near the restroom, finally finds out that Noel had been asleep inside all along and collapsed on the floor, prior to bumping into her, and was unable to get up. She was then lifted up by Kureha and Filicia, although she was unwilling to, due to having resisted for so long O.o the seriousness from episode 7 scenes are certainly gone in this episode and i wouldnt mind if this series moved into a half slice-of-life and half action series... but they would have to fix their tank 1st =X
