Great ep, loved it, felt amused at how Malshiina was wanting Nobuo to remember her, like a yanderish ex girlfriend. :p

Also, Luna was totally awesome this ep. Finally she became useful!

...but Mitsuki will always be best AkibaBlue for me.

Decent ep all round, great action, and damn, Ryuuga was rocking the suit and hat. Ditto Rian. Also, I agree - given that the last two series have shown the love interests in the End, I sense Rian might end up with Ryuuga. I also have to wonder what's his connection to the Saejima family. Also, note ...

Y'know, if the movie does well enough, I'm not opposed to a live action Kenshin series; one movie every couple of years covering a distilled adaptation of the main arcs.

If there is a god, please let there be a Kyoto Arc movie.

OH MY FUCKING GOD.

THIS.

THIS WAS PERFECT.

OH MY FUCKING GOD.

I feel troubled. We're halfway through this season and I don't feel the draw that made me marathon Garo and Makai Senki. Also I totally miss Zaruba. Him snarking away and Kouga straight manning was one of the enjoyable things of the earlier show. Still, decent ep (even if the Dad was played kinda un...

So after years of not watching Sentai (I think I stopped after Shinkenger's finale in '09)... decided to give Akibaranger a try. I've marathoned all eps up to this. It's a blast. It's the humor of the Decade Net Movies with good action ( seriously? This is low budget?) and it doesn't take itself ser...

I am not ashamed to say that this MV moved me to tears. Normally, most MV have very little connection with their series - I'm glad that at least for the recent Kamen Rider MVs, they've made the effort to make the MVs fit in the context of their series. With this MV, Skull has become an Esemble Darkh...

I'm probably reading too much into this, but remember Act 12, when Takeru went on his short retirement, and then dived into the melee to save the bystanders? And then with the team reaffirming their bonds to him? He was wearing the same outfit both times. Not sure if it's intentional, but it's a nic...

We'll have to see how things go, [snip]

dont talk about that

Definately plot and drama heavy, and an episode that also shows how character-driven Shinkenger is. The scene with team having difficulty to accept Kaoru as the leader managed to show a lot of things at once: duty, loyalty, team spirit... everyone really performed well this episode. You can see in t...

Not sure what you mean, considering that the scenario I've mentioned has its precedents in various other media (i'm pretty sure there's a trope for it, but damned if I know where it is...) Princess doesn't want to have to deal with the responsibilities and wanting to be a normal girl is a pretty old...

Best possible solution: Kaoru stays along just long enough to put the sealing charecter on Doukoku, this time for good. After that, she goes off to do her own thing and be a normal girl. Takeru meanwhile returns to being the head of the Shiba Clan simply because while he isn't the head de jure, he's...

My guess is that Takeru is a Shiba, but not of the main house like Kaoru. Assuming that the previous ShinkenRed really was his dad, my take is that Kaoru was sent away so as to be kept secure from when Doukoku came calling, and Takeru is either the younger child or an adopted child with strong mojik...

Wow. Just wow. As a noob who's just finished Ryukendo (albeit from local DVDs), this was a great series. Didn't take itself at all seriously and wasn't afraid to poke fun at itself, and all in all a very fulfilling conclusion. ...incidentally, the staff may be interested to know that there is a loca...
