Saki ep3
Okay, so Nodoka, the pink-haired beauty, is still hot but Yuuki is becoming my favorite character. Normaly she's hyper and bouncy but then sometimes she'll just randomly toss out these totally weird lines, sounding completely serious, and I can't help but laugh. It's also just great to hear Kugimiya Rie voicing a non-tsundere role for a change. And Saki was really cute when she was younger, she should've kept the little twintails.
Kemono no Souja Erin ep7
Wait, what? Soyon could've ridden out of there (not so much in style, but ridden out nonetheless) and blown off the jerkwads that sentenced her to death, but instead she just stayed and took it. ... Why? I mean, yeah, I guess she didn't want to get Erin involved but I imagine watching her mother get ripped to shreds by giant lizards right before her eyes is going to cause problems of its own.
Shugo Chara!! Doki ep80
The fight with Ikuto wasn't as good as I'd hoped but Death Rebel is still awesome. And I was amused by Amu and Tadase's fountain of love cleansing all the X eggs. Then the rest of the episode was just recap as Amu explained stuff to Tadase. Overall, kind of disappointing. Hopefully the big showdown with Easter coming up will be better.
K-ON! ep1
The amount of moe being thrown right from the start is rather staggering. (Not that I mind, of course.) Yui, in particular, is overflowing with it. Watching her spaz over everything was amusing, though, as was the other club members reeling her in with tea and cake and cookies. And the ending was totally hot.
Hatsukoi Limited ep3
Traces of tsundere detected. Violence? Check. Embarrassment and denial? Check. Twintails? Check. Tsundere confirmed. And hey, next episode we get a closer look at the brother complex (brocon?) girl!
Tears to Tiara ep4-5
This is becoming one of my favorites of the season, right up there with Eden, Valkyria, and FMA. Arawn is cool and awesome and keeps having girls literally cling to him, which evokes some rather funny expressions from him. Riannon is cute and sweet and I laughed when she just stood there and smiled before crushing an attacking guard against the wall with magic. The elves are cute too – Ermin needs more screen time now plz. Both the humor and the action are good and the fight scenes have great animation. And it's got GIANT ENEMY CRABS. How can you not love that?
Valkyria Chronicles ep3
Welkin continues to amuse me with his passive aura of lolbetterthanyou. He probably knows the airspeed velocity of that sparrow, too. Faldio looks like he'll be a fun character, especially if he teases Alicia like the preview suggested. Largo makes me think of the Largo from TotA, which is weird because they even look similar.
Tayutama -Kiss on my Deity- ep1-3
Why am I watching this? I had specifically planned to avoid this series, yet here I am. Freaking bewitchingly cute foxgirls. She even spent the first episode in loli form. That's just not fair.
Wakamoto Norio is awesome as always, though. And it's quite fitting that they got Hino Satoshi (Saito from Zero no Tsukaima) to voice the lucky bastard poor sap manslave guy that the foxgirl both has the hots for and somewhat abuses. Oh yes, plus there's a cute loli voiced by Mizuhashi Kaori, which you will know is total win if you've seen Aria or Kaleido Star.
Eden of the East ep3
I'm not sure whether living in an abandoned shopping mall would be awesome or just a pain. Akira's room in the theater looked pretty sweet at least. And his dog was crazy adorable. Kondo biting it was unexpected but funny due to the way he botched things, and the info he spilled was very interesting. I'm looking forward to seeing where the story goes even more now.
Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood ep4
I'm a bit disappointed that I missed the FMA chat this week and thus didn't get to see how other people reacted to Nina's tragedy. Personally, it always makes me want to scream, "You dirty bastard!" at Shou whenever he's on screen. FMA deals with some pretty twisted and tragic stuff throughout, but this was one of the things that stuck in my mind the most when I watched the first series.
Macross Frontier ep18-25
I finally decided to grab the last few episodes from gg and finish this series off since it seems neither the BD rips from THORA nor Menclave's releases are going to be complete any time soon. Thankfully I have a good memory so I still knew what was going on with the story even after being stalled for months. And thankfully the story kept getting more interesting, too. While the first half of the show was okay, it didn't really hook me until about ep13, at which point my interest kept rising all the way to the end.
Oh yeah, and apparently the Frontier's computers run Windows. Who would've thought?
Cardcaptor Sakura ep13
Clow must've had a good appreciation of irony, given the appearance of the Power card. And isn't it amazing how much cuter elephants are before they get big enough to stomp you to death?
Aria the Natural ep14-15
I've had the box set for the second half of Natural sitting on my shelf for a few weeks, feeling neglected as I spent all my time on new spring season shows, but I finally opened it up. As always, watching Aria is bliss.
