Eden of the East episode 7

Johnnylopper- with wings

To those reading my posts for this series, you might already know that I don't like that woman. All throughout the episode, I was wondering how it is okay to portray characters like these, but not when you reverse the gender role. Sure, you guys may think that this selecao chick rocks because she lops dicks off, but try to think in reverse. If this selecao was a guy who hunts girls and rips their tits off, who would be like, "oh yeah, baby!"?. Well, for one, I would. It sucks that our hero is too easygoing and not brutal enough.

Brutality is a very refreshing characteristic of a modern-day hero. People cheered for brutality. Anime might be helped by a few brutal heroes. Well, I don't think such will happen here. The main character is too easygoing, nuff said. We already have too much "too kind" archetypes. Inversely, too many villains are brutal. I always believe in fighting violence with BRRRUTTTALLLITTY! One lopped dick = Twenty thousand ripped-off tits.... mmmm fair exchange, don't you think?

The cat and mouse game could've been much better if Takizawa could match this bitch's violence with his own, but at this point, he's not a very good hero.... he possibly wasted his time on such petty things. I'm not opposed to what our dear selecao is doing, no way. I have no problem with that. I am just pointing out the hypocrisy of those who think it's acceptable to show it while at the same time, viewing violence against women as taboo. Tell you what guys, you propagate the notion that women are the weaker sex by believing in that kind of bullshit. Now, RIP THOSE GODDAMN TITS OFF!!

I dunno. I'm not in the mood for writing about plot-related things. I'd rather discuss what I feel right now.

Stay tuned.

K-ON! - 09

Impression:
I found this week’s episode very touching even though it’s not as hilarious as the last few episodes. In this episode, Azusa was wondering why she was touched and amazed by the performance of the light and music club even though the member’s loves to laze around instead of practising and they often make mistakes while playing. I kinda relate to that in real life because when you like what you’re doing and you persevere, the outcome is usually satisfying unlike when you do something half heartedly it always result to disappointment and even mediocrity. I really like anime shows that teach us some lessons that we often forgot we needed in this life so yeah, I’m starting to love K-ON!. I won’t forget you’re words Mio, “Enjoy what you do” (we’ll that’s not the exact words but that’ll do).

Azusa has graced us again with her presences but I still prefer Mio. She’s cute all right but I prefer the shy expressions of Mio than with Azusa because she’s already overly cute. I noticed also that in the OP of this week’s episode, she is already playing with the band so I want to see her play with the band already. Azusa is also the center of the abuses in this episode and I’m glad because Mio finally had a break of being the center of attraction. Well, I think it’s a good decision because I find the Mio teasing is getting overly excessive.

until then...

First Squad


This movie is due to be released this year. The premise is cool, some Soviet folks against a horse riding villain set in WW2.

K-ON! - 07 & 08

K-ON! – 07
Impression:
It’s nice to see the sisterly love between Yui and Ui but I do hope that there would be more music in this episode. Nevertheless, I still enjoyed the episode because of the characters wackiness but of course my favourite would still be Mio in terms of moéness but if it’s in terms of wackiness, I like Sawa-chan. Nothing much happened in this episode they just spend the time buying presents and having the Christmas party. Btw, Mio sure looks good in her kimono, I hope I could see her wearing that more.

K-ON! – 08
Impression:
Yeah!! A lot happened in this episode and I like the part when Mio saved the song while they are performing. I happen to like their performance in this episode unlike what they did in their previous performance. Though there are some close shots of the instrument playing but most of the time it was just focused on the characters singing. I really prefer Mio singgin as the vocalist because I find Yui’s voice too moé and its kinda disturbing.

I also like the part when they are recruiting members because of the maid costume, they all look so adorable (specially Mio). The part when Sawa-chan forced them to wear the hideous animal costume was hilarious (people won’t come near them wearing those scary costumes). Azusa has been introduced and I find her quietness cute. I wonder what instrument would she be playing? The shot at the end of the episode when Ritsu jumped over Azusa, well, she(Azusa) kinda looks like Kyonko so I wonder if she’s a tsundere or a silent type. I think we’ll find out soon enough…

Until then…

Suzumiya Haruhi S2 - 01


Impression:
I am so glad that the first episode final premiered already but I wonder if the three years wait is worth for it. For me, I don’t know yet because I don’t like judging shows based only on the first episode, I’ll say if it’s worth the wait if all the episodes have been aired already. I certainly missed Yuki and Haruhi’s bossy attitude oh, I almost forgot Kyon’s inner babbling.

I was a bit disappointed with the art quality, the colour is a bit dull and Kyon looks different in some shots. I’m really disappointed because I think Munto was better animated than this and Munto was quite a let down on the plot department. I understand why the animation is not at its best because they are still animating K-ON and I think it’s fine because there are still some good chance they can show off in the future episodes. I also have another rant, Haruhi and Mikuru look a lot moé and I’m bothered because I like their first season counterparts better.

I’m looking forward to June 18th when a whole new episodes would premier. I think they are trying to juice up the plot and make this series more coherent by airing it in a chronilogical manner but I hope the series won’t lose its craziness.


ED
: Tomare by Hirano Aya, Chihara Minori, Gotou Yuuko
Well, I think the ED was just so-so, didn’t like it immediately unlike the previous ED but I hope it could grow on me. The animation sequence is quite good by the way and Haruhi definitely looked moé, its kinda distracting.

until then..
