White Album episode 5

No Sex, One more girl, A whole load of shit.

So it turned out that Yuki went to dreamland instead of going to heaven with Touya, but what was intriguing in this episode is the weird attitude coming from Yayoi, her manager. "Mr.Axe cologne" Touya just seems to attract all girls with his pheromones alone. Then this significantly older bitch comes along...Absolutely no resistance to her temptations, none. nada. "Mr.Axe cologne" even goes with her for the ride... all without Yuki's knowledge.

I admit it made me grin. But what was her motive? None. Although Yayoi is someone even I woudln't pass on. It's the eyes, mate, the eyes. That look reminds me of Sano, the lesbian doctor Major Kusanagi head-kicked in episode 22 of the first season of GITS. Oh well, no plans to see her get CroCopped atm and we all know they (the production) aren't the people to pull cards out of their asses, so just enjoy the side romance as you go.

On the other girls, I think Misaki is going to play the damsel-in-distress mode. Some guy is pretty intent to exact revenge upon her "unknown grudge" by making her make the costumes alone. Yeah yeah yeah, seems predictable if they play that card. No applause from me if they do. Haruka is one helpless case, even if they play her card, romance is unlikely. "Mr. Axe cologne" has seen better stuff than her. Sorry.

One thing's for sure. You do this in real life, you get nice-boated.

Stay tuned.

Maria+Holic - 01

I've watched the early broadcast version of Maria+Holic but because of my busy schedule I wasn't able to blog it but at last I'm going release a blog about the first episode



Impression:

All I could say about this episode is "Wow...that was just awesome" and with those words I was left impressed by the series. I don't know if I've watched a SHAFT series before but the style they used in this show was so artistic. OMG!!! Mariya is so moe but what the heck...she's a guy. I thought this is another Yuri series but wow, its not and I think Mariya is not you're average tramp. I think this show is trying to ridicule Marimite but I don't hate them for that. This episode is so hilarious from Kanako's rants, Mariya, Matsurika and dorm leader calling herself god, the characters are interesting and cool. Mariya's torturing and blackmailing made me giddy...LOL torture me Mariya!! The seiyuu of Mariya has done a very good job in voicing a male Mariya and a kind Mariya and Matsurika's voice is sexy.

Overall, a very brilliant episode and I will surely watch Maria+Holic from start to finish..


until then...
