Utawarerumono 24 - I have my internet back! xD

Filed under: Utawarerumono

Well. I’m back in the game, I am moved, I have my internet, and I’m happy once again. It’s going to take a while before I have posted all what I should have posted, and I don’t expect to have it done in a while. ^^

I can’t believe how stupid this anime is going to be! Really, I didn’t enjoy it at all, and especially not the end when everyone was revealing their true self. But it has been a while since I’ve watched this, so here is the short summary.
 
- First of all I believe that Kuuya has to become familiar with the word ‘melting pot’. A country where all cultures melt together. And where the dominant culture is still dominating. Kuuya could also consider a ‘Salad Bowl’. This is a country where cultures are living next to each other, with the differences of them. That she should make everyone her family, is one of the dumbest arguments I’ve ever heard. That the country was conquered before, is her argument. But she should know that the slaughtered men of her country, also probably begged for their lives as well. And I don’t like war. So I don’t like Kuuya. There. I believe that all cultures can live together, and the phrase ‘conquer or to be conquered’ does not help here. Hakuoro didn’t try to conquer her, did he?
- After this weird explanation, Kuuya gets in her weird robot costume and attacks Hakuoro. How unexpected. Then things get fun.
- Eruruu starts to panic and says that her live is with Hakuoro. Genjimaru asked if she was a contractor as well. Oh damn it. The relations start to interfere. This kind of things, I only feel that it can work if it is in a parody anime. Because I can’t handle these things. I always start laughing for some weird reason.
- And if it is a miracle, Hakuoro defeats Kuuya. How unexpected. Once again. Kuuya gets another knife, because she claims she can still fight. But she can’t even stab Hakuoro and she starts to scream. And Hakuoro claims that no harm will be done on her people or on her. How touching.
- The weirdness continued when the weird angel, Dii, approached. He had a contract with Genjimaru. I believe it’s quite the same as the contract of Hakuoro and Eruruu I believe.
- Hien and Hauenka appear, in the nice robot outfits. They have decided on their own to help Dii and to put it bluntly: to be a traitor. And of course we can all guess what happens to those guys…
- YES! Hakuoro transforms, Utorii teleports everyone to a save location and let the slaughtering begin.
- After that we get another weird explanation. Kamyu can transform (what? How’s that?) into the DAUGHTER of Dii (.. is this just me or is it really one of the weirdest things I’ve ever heard?) And she starts to attack Hakuoro. Of course!
- After that, the drama even gets better. Genjimaru sacrifices himself to be rid of Dii, and he dies in front of the eyes of Kuuya. That isn’t supposed to be so nice to see.
To be continued. I didn’t like this episode because all of the weirdness and the sacrifices. I think I’m not suited to watch average drama anime. I always end up laughing.
‘I am indeed looking forward to the next episode.’

Samurai Champloo 12 - The recap episode!

Filed under: Samurai Champloo

This was just a re cap episode. Mugen and Jin stole the dairy of Fuu, trying to find out who on earth is this ‘Samurai that smells like sunflowers’. They didn’t learn anything of it. All what Fuu was describing, was how the food tasted, that she was kidnapped again and that she had two useless body guards. ^^

However that it was a recap episode, I really enjoyed it. How come? Fuu’s describtion of Mugen and Jin was too hilarious! I can’t tell anything else about this episode, simply because nothing new happened. But it was a great laugh. The picture’ll be online in Januar. Yes.

Yamato Nadeshiko Shichi Henge 3 & 4 – I’m finally blogging this anime again!^^

Yamato Nadeshiko Shichi Henge 3 - memorable moment: Sunako with a chain saw!
This was such a nice episode that I can’t say different then I enjoyed it. This time it was about a host club, seducing Kyouhei in helping them. Kyouhei refused. Of course. Meanwhile, because one of those idiots told the landlady that Sunako was turning into a real lady, and because of the landlady wanted to see that, the boys were in real trouble. Luckily they made a deal with Sunako that she would get the newest grossest splatter dvd ever. And with that, she wanted to become a lady. But she couldn’t, and in the end she gave up. That’s also the moment when Kyouhei lost his nerve and called her ugly. I mean, it was only one boy that called her ugly. And she took that serious, meanwhile there are millions of boys who don’t think that she’s ugly. After that, she didn’t come out of her room for three days and made plans for the elimination of Kyouhei^^ But she dropped her note and Kyouhei planned a counterattack. What gave her a nosebleed. ^^ But after that, Kyouhei was kidnapped. And turned into a weird attraction because of his good looks in a VIP party. Everyone was furious, and Sunako too because she wanted the honour of killing him.^^ So they dressed up as girls and Sunako saved Kyouhei. The only problem was that she saved him with a chain saw. That was so friggin’ funny. The weird lines of Sunako crack me up. ‘He is a perfectly created creature by God’^^. Yeah well. It is and it remains funny.

Yamato Nadeshiko Shichi Henge 4 - I love ghosts!
Yeah I decided that I should blog both episodes at the same time. So I did because I don’t really have the time to blog much about these two apart. This time, the school festival episode! The winning class received a price of 500.000 yen. I don’t know how much that is in euros or in dollars, but it seems like a lot of money. Kyouhei was meanwhile fired with his new part-time job, because somebody sexually harassed him. Once again. So he needed money. Sunako was planning to make a giant house of horror. And really, it looked scary. So Kyouhei decided that he should help her out because of the money. And so they did. And they did a nice job. But in the end, Kyouhei got really pissed of because everyone started to fight because of him. And he explained to Sunako, every where he goes, he gets all the attention. With jobs, he is surrounded by girls but they don’t buy anything. So he gets fired there anyway. If the girls don’t come, he gets sexually harassed by his boss. And then he is pissed of so he is fired anyway. When Sunako heard this, she got angry and she changed to the cool gothic. And that was really so funny. The other memorable moment was of course, Yuki, winning the King&Queen contest. But as the queen.^^

The screenshots will be online in a while. I believe that I’ll have time again in Januar. Yes. Having no internet is a pain. Really.

When I saw the OP, I thought I might like this anime. But there are some small problems. I don’t understand a thing of it. It might be because it’s only the first episode, but I can’t seem to understand what on earth this anime is about. The thing that I noticed too, was the character design. It’s a really weird design, but I like it. The eyes are small, but I think I can get used to this style.

The thing I’ve learned about this anime is that it sets place in Japan about 1853. That is the time that Americans came to Japan. You can really see this too in the anime. Samurais and ugly Yankees with guns. I have to say that this anime made me dislike Americans. Japan should just be Japan and with no other influences. Americans believed that their nation was the best in the world. This attitude comes by in this anime to. And I start to think about it. It makes me dislike America even more then I already did.

Anyway, back to the topic. I so like the main character, even though I don’t understand a thing of him yet. But he has a nice style in combat. This anime is way too serious, and after watching some comedies, I’m not used to it yet. I don’t know why, but I seriously expected any time a major anti climax. It didn’t happen. I think I’ll continue to watch this, I kind of like it. But with the atmosphere I’m right now (middle in the school, boring my way out) I don’t believe that I should watch another episode.

First of all: I’m moved. But because we really do have to work on the house, I don’t have much time to post. And I don’t have time to make long post. I want to keep on keeping this blog, but it will take me a while. So don’t judge me on these posts. Because I don’t have my main computer here yet, I can’t take any screenshots. I think that I’ll try to take the pictures of other sites (with the source, of course) or just leave it. Sorry for the trouble.

When I first looked at it, I thought it was really weird. But at the end of the episode, this can be really fun. Look, what happened? There is a suicidal case of a girl in a school. And after that, 4 individual girls have none memories of the last night, and are called to something. What appears? They all died during that night. I have no idea how because a little information was revealed about it, but it can be really nice. It’s more interesting in finding how the girls are. I mean, they are totally opposed of each other. We have a girl of the student council, who is suppressed by her sempai, we have a delinquent, we have a rebel girl that can be put in the group of a slut and a whimp, I have no idea how to describe her different. Nice combination, though ^^

The cliff-hanger is they have to kill a man in person. This and the suicidal case, I’m sure they are all linked to something, the only question is what. And of course, what is going to happen. I’m sure I’m going to watch this anime^^.
