Many.

13- Ahh, what a powerful episode. Alto’s yelling in the end was just lovely to hear, somehow. Love the RankaAlto moments.
14- Man, Sheryl sucks at piloting, but I thought it was both a funny and cool scene, I guess if it wasn’t for my love for AltoRanka I would like her a bit more. LOL at Luca saying “Nanase-san!” in what could have been his last minutes. I dunno why this episode was funny to me, it was serious but. X3 And take that Sheryl, I loved how he only thought of saving Ranka and she was dissapointed for not receiving a “wait for me” from Alto. Ah, Brera, taking all the credit.

I’ve seen the scene from episode 15 where they sing-fight for Alto, man, I dislike Sheryl so so much with her style of doing it. Another thing that annoys me, and even if Alto ended up with slutty, how they keep comparing Minmei with Ranka. I haven’t watched it, true, so I’m not sure how much similar they are, for the little I’ve seen and heard, Minmei is “moe” as Ranka, if I use the word correctly, but I see a lot more powerful woman in Minmei and Sheryl than Ranka, in their straight-forward way, but since I don’t know Minemi I can’t really comment. Yet, Minmei was for the plot, the other was for the pilot, now, why should it be like that this way as well?? They should have Sheryl sing some Minmei song so that they could compare them. It’s like saying that when they sing What ’bout my star? together, as Sheryl gets sick and all she is going to die in the end and Ranka will win. (yay! haha nah I don’t want Sheryl to die, just to stop being around Alto).

D.Gray-man

I thought it was common knowledge Allen was the 14th, lol. I love Allen’s interaction with his master. Now, obviously, this will lead to a AllenLenalee something.

Air Gear
Can the tournament thing start, please? I’m getting so impatient. …Does the last chapter mean Ikki is all for Simca? I really wanted Ikki/Kururu, and while I don’t want it to be IkkiSimca, I wouldn’t like him with Ringo…but, Kururu! T_T

Katekyo Hitman Reborn.
Aaack, same as Air Gear, it’s getting sort of lame.

I’m also reading Rave Master, and I want to watch Natsume Yuujinchou!

Many opinions. And spoilers.-

Ah yes, I’m not dead, but I won’t be alive for people. -lol-
I actually wanted to just write to remember, and if somebody happens to pass that would be awesome ‘cause I love debate, but I totally forgot why I started this. That is, to remember and post my opinion, even if nobody read.

D.Gray-man
Aww I’m loving the chibi-Kanda/Lavi. I’m happy things cooled down a bit, and got back to it’s more funny facet.

Air Gear
Oh please. This has gotten ridiculous. Seriously, AT started out like something fun, technical, now it’s like everyone is Harry Potter and has some weird power which can make a whole area explode. Ikki/Kazu is evident, and I’m loving Kazu-sama. At least Yayoi -lol wrote Yaoi- isn’t around Agito anymore, please let’s forget those chapters. I’m totally supporting Kilik/Rika, and Hako/Sora was quite adorable…sexy scenes. ;)
Now, I want more Kanon, Kururu, Kilik, Kazu/Emily, and less AT super powah fights.

Code Geass R2
I’m not watching it currently ‘cause University eats me, but I’ve been reading summaries and reviews and I lol’d at the billion Zero-s. I find Lelouch’s lack of physical excercise one of the funniest things in Code Geass.

Nabari No Ou
I totally love it til now. I’ve seen the raws and they look interesting, while Miharu/Yoite is so canon it hurts. <3 Love them.

School Rumble
I smell Eri/Harima…and I actually don’t dislike it. I prefer it to Yakumo/Harima though. I don’t like that couple at all. Mikoto should do something about his childhood friend whose name I totally lost. Tenma-chan…oh, well, the bed-scene was cute, the whole story is sweet, but I wanted Tenma/Harima. But, it didn’t turn out as awful as I expected and I can see Eri/Harima.

Ouran
Tamakiiiiii. Awww I love him so much, such an awesome character. I WANT CHAPTER 62 THOUGH.

Itazura Na kiss
Fun, entretaining, and I feel so Kotoko-ish it hurts. X)

Macross Frontier
BIG, BIG revelation. I love this. The songs, the ANIMATION, the characters -except Sheryl…I wish they would have given her a better design, it’s too common and most are quite unique. I like Ranka/Alto a lot more. But seriously, the animation is so awesome…and the battles combined with pretty scenes and singing…plot full of mysteries…many possible couples…it’s great. =D

Air Gear 197

Filed under: Air Gear

Finally, the Agito/Akito/Lind arc is over, -actually, have just started- and while I got bored with Nakayama being around, I really like how it ended. Ikki/AgitoAkito is such a lovely pairing, and even not relying on romance, I adore how even Agito is melting to Ikki’s main character attitude. As for the following image…
Piercing the skies with drills, eh I mean, wheels!!
…sounds familiar, ain’t it? Lol at Air Gear going Gurren Lagann. Might as well draw a pic, Kamina!Ikki and Simon!Agito. Anyway, even thought Agito’s first line in this chapter IS funny, it involves Nakayama and I don’t want to rant much about this, but I feel like it could happen. I think that her reading of time without needing a watch is obviously pointing to her becoming a tuner, but to Agito/Akito/Lind? I thought Agito/Akito had each other, what would Akito’s used be if that wasn’t the case? Then, what if she becomes Lind tuner, seduced by him? Nah, she is clever, so I guess it won’t happen like that. But, all the “egg of Judas” means one thing: Air Gear is not going to finish in the nearby future. There is too much going on, couple-wise, sibling-wise, and plot-wise. Hope we get some Orca/Agito anytime though! And I still feel Agito cares the most for Ikki. /not taking Akito into account/

Seems next chapter involve Kazu, obviously, as Aeon stole the Flame Regalia…yah, well, I guess either he suddenly twitched and dunno, became evil, or he wants to test Kazu in being the one for the regalia. Other than that, all the every day characters are missed a bit. Ringo and Simca were everywhere, now gone. I just hope they don’t drag the manga too much…

Multifandom latest news.

Spoilers ahead.

D.Gray-man 155 (manga)
Oh well, we did have Allen save the day…but Lenalee did play her part. All their efforts didn’t mean much though, since level 4 stood up, but then we have dear old General Cross -makes me think where he was all this time- who kills the beast in seconds. Seems the mangaka will take some time to “gather information”.

School Rumble 268 (manga)
The moment I seriously thought would never come…came. Harima made his feelings known to Tenma-chan, and he made many epics and gar acts by, instead of being selfish and keeping Tenma for himself, he gave her the chance to be with Karasuma-kun. And, Tenma actually got the message…blushed a little, and I think she is really glad to have someone like Harima…too bad things are going to the Karasuma/Tenma side. Makes me go “what if…”.
What if, as the manga is going, Tenma/Karasuma becomes solid canon? According to Harima, nor Yakumo nor Eri make the woman for him…both are the opposite of Tenma -whose characteristics are what Harima likes of her-, so I wonder…they can’t leave the guy alone!

Katekyo Hitman Reborn! 187
So, Tsuna was caught. I’ve got not much to say, but it’s turning so slowly…I’m tired of all those weird technics and stuff. I want the funny moments to return, and this arc to end. I was expecting, and still am, the mystery behind the Arcobaleno, Byakuran and Jou, but each battle takes like 5 chapters…

School Days 9 (manga)
After the spiffy anime, we have the manga. It was many similar moments like the anime, obviously, but the extra material is great. Both Katsura and Sekai have the same roles, yet Sekai is seen suffering a lot, and makes tons of advances to Makoto, saying she is sorry she loves him but if she can be with him, she feels he is all hers. My favourite female was Sekai, even though a lot hate her haha, but even with her weird behaviour towards the Makoto/Katsura pair, I can’t stand characters like Kotonoha who can’t accept the truth and play dumb until she decides to use a chain-saw. Hope they make the ending more Sekai-oriented, though the killing moment in the anime makes me think Makoto was sorry to hurt everyone. I don’t think the guy loved Katsura in the end. She was his last option. With a preagnant Sekai, a guy who doesn’t want to take responsability started searching for Kato, and any of the others, and so he went back to Katsura…anyway, chapter 9 reached the love-making affair, and while Makoto was trapped with Sekai since then, in the manga he feels guilty for what he does to Kotonoha but when Sekai kisses him, he doesn’t retreat. So, sex wasn’t the essential factor…but, we have to see…

Air Gear 196 (manga)
YES, the battle against Orca ENDED. And, from what the ending can tell me -Akito using the eeh, stick-reviving method instead of a kiss-, I think we can assume any worries of that “pairing” won’t happen. =)

Air Gear 194-195

Filed under: Air Gear

While Air Gear 194 was a complete WTFNO., I became HAPPY with chapter 195. Reason is…

AT LAST.

I’m not sure what happened, but after reading-well, old habit of saying so- the raw and the translation, it is implied Lind was doing all of this for Agito to break free. (…)

As many have said, this Akito/Agito/Lind arc has become too draggy and a bit senseless. Agito/Akito was my favourite character, yet some other grew on me as well -Kazu, Emily, and I think even Kururu-. With this, I just don’t know anymore.

(more…)

Air Gear 192-193

Filed under: Air Gear

I was actually going to complain on chapter 192 but then it ended…WTF.
But in a good way…though it’s getting a bit weird.

Lind...?

If you thought the Akito/Agito thing was strange, then these chapters will leave you O_O.

It seems the actual owner is someone called “Lind”, and I think I may have misunderstood but he is also a Gravity Child?
Agito was remembering some stuff with Ikki and the rest after being attacked by Orca, and then some Kaito image triggered the appearence of Lind.
When he rescues Nakayama -UGH- he says something about Akito and Agito being kids and not noticing such a nice girl is with them.

So, is Lind owner of the body, and also the human being that was born in the first place? Then, how is it that Kaito had Akito who triggered the appearence of Akito for mental survival, and not Lind? Unless the fake personality Akito made another fake but…that would be too much and wouldn’t make sense.
And, at the time Lind appear, Agito is shown with Akito kind of trapped inside the mind, Agito kind of clueless to things…but not Akito.

So this Lind is more powerful than the two combined and that also doesn’t make sense. -like, why doesn’t Agito de-covered his eye so that he goes Aki-Agi-to and has more power.

Air Gear // Chapters 185 to 189

Filed under: Air Gear

This shounen is really good, but I admit I never read how their skills work. Seriously, most of the time I don’t think they make sense. Ha ha.

Anyway, I’m kind of worried somehow, to where they are going now…especially with Agito.

Looks lovely, but why thaaat girl?

Seriously, even though I do like Nakayama, Agito doesn’t need romance, IMO. He has slowly melted in Kogarasumaru, Akito is quite in love with Ikki, and Agito basically exists for Akito.

Because of this character I started reading Air Gear, but I thought he was the main character and that there were two twins. Obviously it wasn’t the case, but the character’s design, style and double personality is obviously attractive. Akito even gives us plently of shounen-ai whenever he wants to. =D
Speaking of which, it brings us to this question I’ve been reading on forums after Nakayama saying she loves him to Emily. Whoa, that was quite unexpected, I thought she liked Ikki? Or I may have confused things…but when Ringo was trying to get Ikki with the kimono and all Emily asked her if she wasn’t going to do anything about it.
Akito’s tastes rely on men, obviously, and being the same entity…I suppose Agito is as well, gay. Like, gay for Akira.

Air Gear has shown that characters introduced by the 150 chapter can be awesome -like Kururu- and that secondary characters will become as important as the main one all of a sudden -Kazu-, and while we all knew Emily was going to appear a lot more, Nakayama is suddenly showing signs of life. Will she be a tuner? And what’s this many scenes with Agito…I don’t want her to be with him, it’s like everyone is going to get someone, and it’s quite disturbing to -let’s use the imagination- you are dating someone whose other side is all for Ikki, a guy.

As for Vertingetorix (was it?), I adore his character design. X3
