Well a bucket of sweat saves a gallon of blood, that it does…

After a wee bit of background on Biribiri and her boy troubles we get some glorious fluff about Kuroko and Uiharu. While both are rather young in years they were quite adorable in when still in elementary school. I was surprised that Kuroko was so negative about going to Tokiwadai and had some very nasty things to say about the Tokiwadai no Ace. Uiharu however seems to have always been into yuri and imagined going to school with Long Haired Kanako and Ayarin, I wonder how far her fantasies go…

Fire at will commander.

The day of reckoning has finally come and for some reason it seems that the girls are putting in 110% while the boys are making pathetic attempts to become traps. Thankfully Seitoukaichou had them shot and blown to little pieces. In the meantime Akane and Natsuru Girl-type are being costume raeped for fun and profit, emphasis on PROFIT. To get rich is glorious and indeed it seems that their class will get rich first. While they have decided to socialize Natsuru Girl-type, they milk it for all it is worth and ensure that socialism is not shared poverty by taking a rich harvest of photos. Natsuru Girl-type lost her dignity sometime ago but the end result was that Akane felt that she was now damaged goods but I am sure her partner will take full responsibility though it is glorious that she felt that she lost it to some yuri fangirls… Surely her preference for Natsuru Boy-type is a cover for her growing yuri lust. Sakura is late to the party as usual and misses out on all the fun Akane gloriously tells the stupid bitch off while clinging tightly on to Natsuru Girl-type’s arm. This sends Sakura packing and weeping and such is her pathetic state that she relies on Natsuru Boy-type to console her.

Wait so Yui was hetero? Or was it that she was more moe moe kyun for megane men?

So Vichy-tan after having been sent reeling on the field from Sawako’s infinite superiority in just about every aspect, the vile French Fry has decided to initiate a propaganda offensive. Not since the Mao Era have I seen such a disgusting smear campaign, worse still this student population believes all of it, I think it is time for a most violent purge and sending the guilty into re-education camps for thought reform. Fortunately Yano and Yoshida don’t believe much of it and Yosida makes me proud in that she now brags of having made teachers weep and BIG BANG PUNCHED every boy that crossed her path. I can only hope that Yosida will SMASH VICHY-TAN INTO ATOMS. Sadly because neither Sawako, Yano, or Yoshida is a fully fledged member of the School of the Undefeated of East they cannot communicate clearly through fists and as such they are not on the same frequency. It is reminiscent of how Halsey misread the the message from Nimitz regarding Kurita’s Center Force at Leyte and took the padding as verbatim, and now Yano and Yoshida are misreading the padding as well, all three wept True Tears, though Halsey’s were of RED HOT RAGE while Yano and Yoshida are of sadness and forlorn. At the very least Yano and Yoshida were not ready to lynch Sawako over such base rumors and struggled to keep faith. It is a most welcome revelation of what top tier friend material they are with a little more time they will be Kameraden with Sawako. Thier bonds will by then have been forged in the heat of conflict, sealed through mutual True Tears, and guarded by St. Noe, and if that insolent Vichy-tan thinks that she might win I cannot wait to see her weep crap tears of lose and fail.

AND IT TURNED OUT TO BE A DUDE!

?Well we finally got some hint of plot but I am most displeased with the excessive amount of screen time given to this spiky haired dick wad whom I shall refer to as Spiky-kun. This Spiky-kun needs to GTFO and die, I hope Kuroko goes Liang Qi on his sorry ass make him GET SOME with a Wiimote of DOOM. At any rate Biribiri was awesome as always with her martial prowess which was sadly negated by Spiky-kun’s overpowered magical GN hax. Just goes to show that Biribiri has much to learn when it comes to close combat. I hope that the Tokiwadai no Ace starts taking lessons from Alphard onee-sama so that she might avail herself against that cheating spiky haired two bit loafer. I was overjoyed as Almighty Zeus SMASHED HIS EGGS INTO ATOMS.Saten-san was unusually delightful this time around as she whispered suggestive things into Kuroko’s ears. Of the four of them Saten had particular interest in Nugi Onna, and even wanted pictures… I think Saten shows great promise as a future master of Yuri. Poor Kuroko was pretty much left out in the cold to make way for that insolent Spiky-kun but at least she managed to make one love love attack to bring Biribiri back to the the light. Nugi Onna gave plenty of hints as to where the plot is headed, and for a while she made Biribiri blush profusely which is always a plus.

That is some wish ya got there.

This week was a bountiful feast of Shizuku goodness that ought to make Calawain a most happy lawyer, and to be sure I admire her because she is clever and inventive. For now Shizuku has done a wonderful job of making sure that Natsuru Girl-type is the default mode with entering Natsuru into the beauty contest, as increasing popularity means much more hostility to Natsuru the Boy-type who will be assassinated by legions of fangirls and fanboys. But first she had a little bit of fun while telling us of her dreams of becoming a comedian, should she succeed as I am confident that she shall, then her humor will be most black. At any rateShizuku is most adept at this seduction thing, I have not the words to describe so I shall let Calawain sing praise to Shizuku. It is most telling how no one seems to take Natsuru’s assertions that she is guy seriously. Even Akane calls Natsuru a pussy and a chicken. While Normal Akane has a ways to go Kampfer Akane is awesome I just love it when she curses and insults Natsuru. I give her more credit for gunning for the alleged cheater than the other woman as lesser girls often do. Shizuku goes even further and declares that Natsuru’s humiliation at her hands would only cover the damages that Akane caused, as they were after all partners…

Sawako was born ready.

I finally got over my jet-lag or at least I think I have, so I can finally give praise to Sawako. Sawako might be shy and overly modest but she is holding up just fine and making steady progress. I like how she is dealing with the walls that everyone put around her by SMASHING THEM INTO ATOMS with her polite attitude and saintly qualities. While usagijen thinks the rest of the class as unworthy miscreants who are undeserving of Sawako, Sawako is of such good quality that she cares not about their misconceptions and her desire to be friend them is undiminished by their spiteful ignorance and craven fear. Indeed many in Class 1-D are unworthy of such a friend, but they will be turned eventually. Yano and Yoshida may be rough around the edges but they are genuinely nice blokes, and do a decent job of providing snarky rabu rabu commentary. Yosida and Ryuu seem to have some history and Yoshida delightfully reveals how utterly ignorant the Kazehaya fan girls are. Seems back then they went communist and decided to institute the collectivization of Kazehaya. I look forward to seeing Sawako end this Kazehaya Soviet, though I think that Kazehaya is going to end it himself.

Even the nameless detectives cannot die.

It’s been too long since my last Mazinger Z post and while the summary was easy enough I am still at a loss for words to properly gush over just how EPIC it was and how much it moved me as a mecha fan. In any case it seems that Hell and Kenzo were in cahoots for a while and slaughtered a whole lot of Mycenae while rotting Tristan and Iseult. Baron Ashura swore terrible vengeance and teamed up with Mazinger Z and the rest of the gang. Gamia-chan was at her loveliest this ep as she shallenged the King of Hell and held it at bay until Mazinger Z went into to finish the job. The Mazinger Army was also most useful after they revealed that within each held a part that was worth much more than the actual mecha. Wife Beater Kenzo tries to make amends but I am still sorely disappointed in Tsubasa’s for not ending Kenzo’s misery buy running her Z Blade right through his thick skull. After 100 some odd combined Rocket Punches and the most Ultra Gorgeous BIG BANG PUNCH the King of Hell is slain. It was so beautiful and made me want to punch something at the same time. Nevertheless the treachery continues as Ashura had only wanted to kill Dr. Hell so that it could commit hara-kiri by ripping itself apart. With that a sequel was confirmed in a manner most dire as the not so dead Mycenae Empire invades the Earth with many pillars and the new Big Bad cuts Mt. Fuji down to size.
