Otome wa Boku ni Koishiteru Ep1
[Posted @ 5:18 PM]
Because Im lazy to resize the pictures, or rather if I resize them, they will become kinda small, so Ill just leave them as they are, click on the picture for a larger dimensions.
Episode 1 of Otome wa Boku ni Koitshiteru [Otoboku] started with, Miyanokouji Mizuhos friend, Mikado Mariya applying makeup on him. [Ill refer Mizuho as a male from now to prevent any confusion later] Oh did I mention the ero sounds Mizuho made when Mariyas doing her job? LoL. Anyways, Mizuhos really impressed when he saw himself in the mirror, reflecting a beautiful girl.
OP, Love Power by Aice5 is pretty catchy, probably because I played it like 5 over times when I screenshot the trailer lol. Takako moe~
In Seioujo Gakuen [Seiou Girls Academy], the girls were walking to school when suddenly they noticed a beautiful girl walking pass them, everyone stopped, turned and looked. That girl was none other than Mizuho and following behind, his childhood friend, Mariya. In the principals office, the principal/sister welcomed Mizuho to the academy recognizing him as Mizuhos grandfathers grandson. Mizuho doesnt seem happy that hes cross dressing as a girl to attend the girls academy. -Flashback-, Mizuho received news that his grandfather had left a will for him to attend Seiou Girls Academy and Mariyas supposed to help him accomplish that despite Mizuhos protests. With a makeup kit, padded bras and Mizuhos natural beauty, amazingly Mizuho managed to look like a real girl and a moeeeeeeee~~ um I mean beautiful girl I must say.
-Back to present-, seems like Mizuhos deceased mother used to enter the very same school too. After that, the principal asked Mizuhos form teacher, Kajiura Hisako, who too knows Mizuhos a guy to show him to class. [Whats up with the bouncing boobs Hisako-sensei? LoL] Walking to his class, 3-A, Mizuho kept worrying that his cover would be busted and was very uncomfortable under the girls glazes when he was introducing himself. However, in the end, his classmates were like going gaga over him lol. Anyways, Mizuhos majestic appearance caused a huge stirring among the students in the academy. Everyones talking about him being beautiful, perfect and all, with the ideal height, style and brains.
Scene changed to Sugawara Kimie [Black-haired glasses wearing girl] opening the door for the Student Council President, Itsukushima Takako to enter. [Takako-chan moe~] Takako commented that the cafeterias overflowing with chatters and Kimie agreed with that. Voices of some girls with Mariya walking by were heard, mentioning about Mizuho this and Mizuho that by Kimie and Takako. In 3-A, Mizuhos surrounded and bombarded with questions from his classmates, like whats his hobbies, what he likes to eat, blood type and where he lives lol. In his mind, Mizuho felt relieved that his cover wasnt blown, suddenly he felt the urge to visit the toilet and excused himself in a lame manner lol. I remembered that I have something important to do, well talk later ohohoho~ LOL and kinda brisk walked out of the class.
One of the girls sitting next to the door asked her friend wondering what happened to Mizuho. The girls friend merely replied, Toilet., lol then doing a peace sign at the back when the other girl turned towards the door. [I dont know their names at the moment, probably in the next episode] Mizuho found the toilet but didnt dare to enter in lol because its a girls toilet after all! Mizuho tried to psycho himself that hes a girl right now and started to walk in when another girl walked out of the door. At that moment, he froze, shaking with fear lol. In the end, he couldnt find the courage to go in and told himself to control till school ends lol. [Kids, do not try this at home =)] In the Student Council room, Takakos reading the files of Mizuho, seemingly taken an interest in him. After school, Mizuho rushed to the dorms lol, toilet toilet toilet!!
While running, he saw a girl, Jyuujyou Shion walking in the opposite distance towards him and he seem amazed by her. Rendering Mizuho speechless who stood rooted to the ground as Shion walked past him, muttering Gokigenyou along the way. Finally, Mizuho managed to reach the dorms, before Mariya could introduced to him the surroundings of the dorm, Mizuho immediately asked where the toilet was and dashed straight there lol. After relieving himself, Mizuho was bashed up by Mariya because his actions of leaving the toilet seat up, throwing his bags and shoes on the floor might give him away. Mariya continues abusing Mizuho till Kamioka Yukari, lowerclassmen entered the dorm. Yukaris thrilled to meet Mizuho lol, praising Mizuho and all. Mariya then left Mizuho to walk up to his room as he had to unpack his luggage. Walking up the stairs, Mizuho noticed a petite girl having difficulties balancing a tray of tea cups and jugs up and helped out. That girls Suouin Kana who is also the lowerclassmen responsible for serving him. [Similar to Strawberry Panic!, the lowerclassmen here serves the upperclassmen] In Mizuhos room, Kana poured the tea for Mizuho and he felt a little bad that Kanas serving him. Kane replied that its alright as she had been looking forward to having her own Onee-sama [Elder sister]. Mariya explained to Mizuho about the lowerclassmen serving the upperclassmen thingy and said that Yukari helps her.
Mizuho seemed unsure of that idea, saying that it would be quite tough for Kana isnt it? Kana replied that she envied Yukari because she has an Onee-sama to take care of, so the appearance of Mizuho made Kana very happy. Making a doggy face lol, Kana asked if Mizuho dislikes her? Mizuho smiled and said hes okay with it, delighted, Kana leaped forward and hugged um Mizuhos hips? Later, Mizuhos relieved that the days gone without any hassle and wondered why his grandfather made such a weird request for him to enter the girls academy. Mariya entered the room, asking if Mizuhos okay with the room, Mizuho replied that hes a little uncomfortable lol. [A pink room *shivers*] Mariya leaned closer to Mizuho commenting that he looks pretty much like a girl, just then, Mizuho noticed Mariyas chest and blushed, looking away. Mariya realized what Mizuho saw, grinned slyly and pushed Mizuho down on bed. Mariya said that it cant be help since she had to help Mizuho become more like a girl and proceed on to take off her shirt. Mizuho asked what Mariya was doing. Mariya chuckled and said what shes doing?
Well, of course to hold Mizuhos first pajamas party~ lol and Mariya revealed sexy night lingerie underneath her clothes. From nowhere out popped, Kana and Yukari lol. The girls proceed on to flaunt their pajamas [Mariya didnt even wear a bra!?] and when it comes to Mizuhos turn, Mariya threw off Mizuhos clothes and put on a normal wear of pajamas for him. Both Kana and Yukari were full of praise despite wearing just normal pajamas. Mariya then permit them to hug Mizuho lol, the young girls lunged towards Mizuho pinning him and nudging him on bed. Mariya stated that this way, everything will be fine as he get used to it =), lol Mizuho was like, What will happen from now on?~~ -End-
ED, Beautiful Day by Sakakibara Yui, well the images were cute lol, SD and all, I dont know whether to call it ugly or adorable but haha, its really funny. The EDs catchy and stuff, light and happy I supposed.
Quite a pleasant first episode, not much characters introduction yet, I dont know how the PC/PS game goes but Im okay with the pace. The SD were hilarious lol, Shion won me over just with one line, Gokigenyou LOL, how cool is that?! Takakos pretty cute in the OP too XD. A number of fan service in this episode, but not too way off, Im okay I guess.
Art: 8/10 [I like]
Story: 6.5/10 [Nothing much yet.]
Characters: 7/10 [Mizuho-chan~]
Overall: 7/10
It gives me a fuzzy feeling inside.

[Manga] Strawberry Panic Chapter 12 Brief Summary
[Posted @ 2:14 PM]
The moment you all have been waiting for ... after 11 chapters ... SPOILERS FOR CHAPTER 12!!
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>
>>>>>
>>>
>>
>
Ironically ... in the Anime, they did it after 11 episodes too lol. The difference is, Nagisa's taken by surprise in the Anime while Nagisa's a willing participant in the Manga heh.
Brief summary in Chapter 12, 'Small Crown';
- Picking up from Chapter 11, Nagisa fell down the tower where the Cadette [Little Sister] were kept in captivity. The Aînée [Elder Sister] have to rescue the Cadette by riding their horses to the tower.
- Luckily, Nagisa managed to hold on to the side and was barely hanging around. Hikari was like hysterical, calling for help and stuff. Hikari kept apologizing to Nagisa as it's her fault that Nagisa had fallen. [In Chapter 11, Hikari was elbowed by one of those girls in the tower, Nagisa saw Hikari falling backwards, rushed forward to push her back, as a result Nagisa tripped and fell instead.]
- Nagisa merely replied, it's good, it's good that Nagisa fell instead. [I think Nagisa meant that it's okay, she's glad that she's the one who fell because probably she's stronger than Hikari who might just fall splat on the ground LOL]
- The leader, Amane yelled Hikari's name and told Hikari to jump down the tower as she's there to catch her. In Amane's arms, Hikari begged Amane to save Nagisa.
- Amane steered Star Bright to Nagisa's side and asked Nagisa to hand on.
- Nagisa was like 'I can't hold on anymore!!!~'. Suddenly Shizuma arrived, yelling to Amane that she'll handle it [LoL like hell she'll let Amane touch Nagisa].
- Shizuma managed to catch Nagisa as she fell.
- Shizuma kinda shed tears of relief [Not sure abt this] as she called Nagisa, 'You Baka Child. Seriously, you baka child ... my kawaii angel ...'
- Shizuma then turned back to Amane and taunted her that she's leaving then lol. Caught in the moment, Amane steered Star Bright back to position, told Hikari to hold tight and galloped away.
- It was a close battle between Shizuma and Amane but in the end, Amane won.
- Shion was like ... it was a close call ... phew lol and was determined that St Spica will win again but she seemed kinda worried about the last round ...
- Meanwhile, Nagisa and Shizuma were sitting under a tree, chatting about Shizuma's memories [Not really sure what they said], feelings of happiness, sadness and stuff. Nagisa then realized Shizuma's feelings when her beloved died [Kaori].
- In the end, Shizuma [Not really sure either] said something about the feelings/memories of sadness and bitterness disappearing.
- Placing her hands on Nagisa's shoulders, Shizuma confessed to Nagisa that she now likes Nagisa and will give her all, body and soul to Nagisa.
- Nagisa seemed touched.
- Shizuma's fingers lingered around Nagisa's lips, she said 'My cute Nagisa ...' and moved closer.
- Before Shizuma moved even closer, Shizuma asked Nagisa for permission [Can I, Nagisa?].
- Nagisa just hugged Shizuma in response.
- Both of them kissed.
Sorry, I'm not really sure what was said in the Nagisa and Shizuma scene haha. I'll post up the rest when the translated's up, if you can't wait, run down to Yamibo, for the RAWS!

Negima!? Ep1
[Posted @ 10:55 PM]
... tired ... sleepy ...
Summary later ... It's like I'm watching a movie ... lol, very exciting. Sorry, got a little lazy lol. Alright, basically in Episode 1, it started with flashback of a really serious battle between Evangeline and the Thousand Master [Negi's father, Nagi]. Back to present again as we see Evangeline sensing Negi's coming to Japan and then licking her lips as she spot her blood prey, Makie from her class ... Meanwhile, in England, Negi Springfield, the child of Thousand Master was sent to Japan on a mission to be a teacher in Mahora Gakuen. Negi's childhood friend, Anya doesn't seem happy about it and made such a big fuss about it ... [-.-||| they made Anya into some bratty girl] Under Nekane's [Negi's elder sister] encouragements, Negi was determined to accept the mission.
Standing in front of Mahora Gakuen, Negi seemed afraid to enter in. Camo kinda encouraged Negi but failed. Suddenly a whole bunch of rampaging school girls bulldozed them lol. A introduction of Mahora Gakuen was played, the facilities of Mahora and stuff. In the dorms, Konoda's attempting to awake Asuna but she kept procrastinating [5 mins ... 10 mins ... 15 mins ... and 20 mins lol]. A knock on the door as Setsuna arrived to pick Konoka to school. As the bell rang, Setsuna offered to wake Asuna up, her own way lol, luckily Konoka dragged Setsuna away to school before she could do anything.
Negi and Camo managed to survive the 'ordeal' but lost a tooth on the way lol. Negi used his magic to fix Camo's tooth back. This was seen by Asuna who was stunned rooted on the ground. Camo told Negi to use his magic to brainwash Asuna's memories of using the magic. But before Negi could do it, they heard Konoka's voice calling for Asuna. Konoka and Setsuna then dragged the supposed blur Asuna to school. Camo tried to console Negi by saying that Asuna might be too blur to remember and said 'No problem~' LOL. However Negi wasn't that convinced and started to cry. Takahata-sensei arrived at the scene and greeted Negi.
At classroom, 2-A, introduction of the names of the students were displayed as Makie told them about been bitten by a vampire. The girls then began chatting about if it was scary, how the vampire looks like and stuff. Asuna, Konoka and Setsuna managed to get to class safely lol. Takahata-sensei then brought Negi to the class 2-A to be introduced to the students. Negi was horrified to see Asuna there lol, Asuna couldn't seem to remember where she saw Negi ... Anyways, the girls were excited to see a cute boy-teacher~ lol. Nodoka and Ayaka as usual were infatuated with Negi.
Konoka was asked by her grandfather to let Negi stay in Asuna and her room for the time being. While walking along the streets, Asuna was still thinking about Negi and suddenly remember who Negi was when she noticed a flashing lamplight. Konoka showed Negi in their room, then remembered there were no tea leaves and left to buy some. Suddenly, there was a loud scream, Negi realized that it's Konoka's and rushed down to investigate. There, she saw Konoka lying on the floor, unconscious and was carried away by the vampire, Evangeline.
Thus, the battle between Evangeline and Negi, son of the Thousand Master.
After that, we were given a treat of the Baka Rangers lol. Really unexpected.
GANSIS/SHAFT managed to combine Volume 1-3 of the Manga pretty well, a refreshing start. In the manga, Camo wasn't supposed to appear till Volume 3 and Asuna sure didn't found out about Negi's magic this way lol. In the manga, Negi had to save Nodoka from falling and Asuna saw that but anyways, this way was kinda funny too lol.
No OP and ED in episode 1 ... as expected of SHAFT lol ... the animation was great, so was the characters designs, backdrops, hell even the background music ROCKED but the only flaw in this episode was ... the english. I'm puzzled why don't they at least get someone to check their English -.-|||| instead of blabbering some direct translated kinda english.
Quote:
'However, he was not overbearing at all without treating oneself. ... There is not a person to know what he does where as of now.'
WTF. I'm not joking. It's not the first case and definitely not the last either. Hire me please.
Art: 7.5/10 [Compared to Season 1 ... *shivers*]
Story: 7.5/10 [I was kinda pleased.]
Characters: 7/10 [EVANGELINE~~]
Overall: 8/10 [BAKA RANGERS! LOL]
... gonna go to bed ... night.

Yamato Nadesico Shichihenge Ep1 [First Impression]
[Posted @ 2:36 PM]
WHEE, new anime title XD.
Kinda looking forward to the anime of 'Yamato Nadesico Shichihenge' ... uh let's call it PGE from now on huh? Haha, the title's too long arghz. I'm not going to go into details what happened in Episode 1 because I'm not really blogging it ... yeah read the manga if you want to know more =).
The OP's kinda like a slideshow of what happened in Episode 1, are they going to keep changing the images for every episode? Bleh. Anyways, the OP song, 'slow' by Kiyoharu was alright ... can't say very good or very bad, just normal lor. I'm not a fan of him so ... yeah but I know the mangaka of PGE is lol, bet she must be tearing her hairs out ... XD.
Anyways, Episode 1 mainly covered what happened in the Manga, Chapter 1. Starting with Sunako's flashback 2 years ago when she was rejected by this guy she likes because she's ugly. *SHOCK* Sunako goes into depression thinking that she's so ugly that she went over to the 'dark side' lol. Four bishounens, Mori Ranmaru, Takano Kyohei, Oda Takenaga and Toyama Yukinojou were given a proposal to stay at Sunako's aunt's mansion for free if they could turn Sunako into a lady. When they finally met Sunako, their hopes of easily turning Sunako into a lady was dashed. Basically, Sunako's not a normal girl and as soon as Sunako sees the four guys, she ran for her life because they were too 'bright' lol.
The guys tried to befriend Sunako but Sunako just yelled at them to get out of her room, the guys were pissed. Sunako, realizing she can't live in the mansion any longer because looking at the beautiful guys makes her nose bleed [Not that kinda ecchi way lol] let alone stay with them. So she decided to ran out while the guys were fumbling away however Kyohei noticed her sneaking out lol. Sunako was bullied by the stupid people who thought she's a spirit and while running away from the mob, she fell flat on her face and was mocked by the people. Crying silent tears, Kyohei came to Sunako's rescue, grabbed her hand and brought her home saying it's dangerous for a girl to wander around at night. Sunako seemed touched.
Back home, the guys were attempting to cook, or rather Kyohei was trying to cook but failed. At a corner, Sunako decided to cook for them to probably thank them but she caused some misunderstandings by the way she handled the knives LOL. The guys thought she was gonna chop them into pieces lol. The guys loved Sunako's cooking and ate with gusto. After that, Kyohei forced Sunako down as he wanted to see Sunako's face. As Sunako's trying to get out of Kyohei's grasp, she accidentally knocked over a bag of flour which caused an illusion of Sunako's face to be beautiful [See screenshot 13] but in actuality ... Sunako's face was ... well needed some improvements lol. Can't say she's ugly because she really does has great features =).
Well, the guys were shocked and proceed to 'patch' up Sunako's face ... in the end, the guys failed as Sunako covered herself in black cloth as though she lost her 'human' status lol.
The ED song, 'Carnation' by Kiyoharu again was ... eh okay, as for the ED, a skeleton dancing was kinda cute lol ... he/she really could shake his/her booty well =).
Overall, it was an okay watch, the voices were quite okay for the characters, except sometimes Sunako's voice is a little bit too girlish, she's supposed to sound ghostish!!! LOL. I'll continue to watch it ... =).
Art: 6.5/10 [Could improve more I reckon]
Story: 6.5/10 [FUNNY.]
Characters: 6.5/10 [Sunako~~]
Overall: 6.5/10 [...]
I'll probably do Negima!? Ep1 later ... or tomorrow, I got the sub already ... saw the screenshots in some blogs and it was well received ... a MUST WATCH this season!!!

[Posted @ 9:50 PM]
WOOHOO, finally, I bought YanZi's 10th album ... 'O˽ȫӛ [Sun Yan Zi Jing Dian Quan Ji Lu], My Story, Your Song'. It was supposed to be out in stores on 22nd September 2006 but apparently Warner Music Singapore had to delay it to 26th September 2006. For whatever reason, I don't care anymore, I got my album. We had to wait again for the Deluxe version to be out today ... 29th September 2006, so I waited like A WEEK before I buy both the NORMAL and the DELUXE version. So what's the difference? Ok, besides the price duh, the Normal's priced at S$19.90 while the Deluxe's priced at S$55.90 over at Sembawang Music. As for the rest, I have no idea lol, don't care if I bought the most expensive either, I'm just happy I got it =).

Negima!? Trailer
[Posted @ 9:48 PM]
The art looks good.
I can still see the 'Metal pot crashing on head' Pani Poni Dash!/Tsukuyomi Moon Phase style in the preview =), kinda cute heh. The brand new season of Negima!? starts on 4th October 2006, which is next wednesday. Don't confuse this with the Negima!? Haru OVA, this is the TV series while the Haru OVA is probably a one-shot of the Manga, Volume 7, Chapter 61 and 62. The Negima!? Haru OVA airs on 25th October 2006, the DVD preview was coupled together with the Limited Edition Manga, Volume 15, one and a half month ago.
I've uploaded the trailer in sendspace, click here to download it. Source from this blog.
Oh I'll post Page 3 and 4 of Maitake's My-Hime Doujinshi on saturday or sunday, sorry got a little busy this week.

Strawberry Panic! Ep26 [End]
[Posted @ 11:03 AM]
Edit: Summary updated =), enjoy and gimme your comments/feelings on the last episode of StoPani! Special service to all, 24 screenshots and click on the pictures for larger screenshots =).
The last episode of Strawberry Panic! A really simple and sweet towards the end. I think I replayed the last 7 minutes over 10 times already haha.
The night before the day of the Etoile Election, its snowing in Strawberry Panic! world, Nagisa looked out of the window, thinking to herself that if tonight doesnt end, maybe, theres no need to worry for whos the victor and loser. If morning never comes maybe Meanwhile, Yayas angsting in the shower as Hikari was in a rendezvous with Amane, dapped together in a blanket enjoying the view of falling snow flakes. Rokujous staring out of the window, thinking to herself, tomorrow is the day of truth on who will be the next Etoile, what expression should I put on to face the girls? Similarly, Shizumas thinking about the past, about the time when she became Etoile, what expression was on her face? What did she possess? Its like an illusory and distant past. Moving on to the St Lulim girls, lol, they were actually queuing up in the freezing cold to be the first ones to enter the hall where the Etoile Election would be held. Chikaru even proudly stated that thats why she founded this club, the Vie for First Seat club lol. Lemon grumpily reminded Chikaru that shes the Student Council President and hence had no need to queue up lol. Chikaru just went Ara? LOL. Chikaru then gave her first seat to Ashibaru =). Lemon noticed Kizuna sleeping buried in snow lol and went OMIGOD! Dont sleep!!, followed by Chikaru screaming, Kizuna-chan, I dont want you to die~~~~ LoL. [A real comic relief after the serious opening.]
At the Ichigo-sha, Shizumas friends, Hitomi and Mizuho were combing Shizumas hair when Rokujou knocked and entered the room. Both Hitomi and Mizuho looked worried and asked Shizuma if its fine. Shizuma assured them that its fine. Both Hitomi and Mizuho left the room, leaving Rokujou with Shizuma in the room. Shizuma asked Rokujou to comb her hair, Rokujou jokingly said that its been a while since she last did it and couldnt guarantee the turn out. Shizuma said that its fine. As Rokujou started combing Shizumas hair with her hand Rokujou asked Shizuma if its really okay but shes not asking about her hair combing technique apparently but more about Nagisa and Tamao participation in the Etoile Election. Shizuma replied yeah. Over at the St Spica side, Tsubomis helping Hikari prepare for the Etoile Election. When Hikari thanked Tsubomi, Tsubomi said that its not a problem as she knew Yaya-senpai wouldnt be helping anyways. Sitting on the bed, Yaya just hmph at the statement. [I reckon Yayas couldnt trust herself to help Hikari?] A knock at the door as Shion asked if Hikaris ready. Hikari replied that shes almost ready. Hikari then asked Yaya to tie the blue ribbon which represents St Spica in the Etoile Election to her hair, please. Tsubomi looked uncomfortably at the exchange and was surprised when Yaya agreed and tied the blue ribbon to Hikaris hair.
While tying the blue ribbon, Yaya commented that Hikaris cute like an angel, leaning against Hikaris back, Yaya told Hikari to do her best. Another knock on the door, this time its Amane. Just then, Amane opened the door as Yaya reluctantly lets go of Hikaris hair. [Kinda symbolized Yayas possession of Hikaris gone, whoa such a strong moment. This reminded me of episode 1 where Yaya whispered to Hikari that she cant like anyone else besides her lol] Hikari left the room along with Amane and Tsubomi, leaving Yaya forcing herself to smile and wave goodbye. At the St Miator side, Tamaos helping Nagisa to tie her hair while Chiyos in her room duty maid uniform folding the pajamas of the senpais. After tying the green ribbon which represents St Miator in the Etoile Election, Tamao tied the red ribbon which was tied to Nagisas wrist in episode 12 along on Nagisas hair. [Is Tamao trying to mark Nagisa as hers? Or purely for good luck reasons? Or Nagisa told Tamao to tie it on her? It was not stated lol.] Both Chiyo and Tamao praised Nagisas appearance. At that moment, Rokujou knocked the door, swing open the door and told the girls that its time. Both Chiyo and Tsubomi sent the Etoile candidates out of the Ichigo-sha, Chiyo remarked that she felt a little desolate.
Tsubomi smugly said that after the Etoile Election, Chiyo will feel even more desolate because the winner of the Etoile will be lol. Chiyo doesnt seem to be listening as she decided to clean the room up to prepare for a tea party after the Etoile Election. Chiyos confident that everyone will become friends again even after the Etoile Election. Like a child begging for assurance, Tsubomi asked Chiyo if she could come? Chiyo said okay. Tsubomi asked again if Hikari and Yaya could come too? Chiyo said of course. Tsubomi then ran back to the Ichigo-sha saying that shell inform Yaya about it then turned back to tell Chiyo that shes not worried about Yaya or anything lol. [Such a untruthful child fufufu] Unknown to them, Shizumas standing at a distance looking at the exchange. Its time for the Etoile Election, students were piling the hall as they await. Meanwhile, Yayas in her room angsting with Tsubomi beside her. Yaya told Tsubomi that the Etoile Elections starting. Tsubomi replied that she knew who will win anyways and theres no need to watch. What are you saying, to miss Hikari in her glory, are you an idiot?, Yaya said. Tsubomi responded with a Yeah Im an idiot. But I just want to stay here. Yaya seemed touched by Tsubomi implied comfort and answered with an untruthful Do whatever you like. [Such a cute scene between Tsubomi and Yaya XD, this scene vary from I-dont-want-to-see-my-beloved-Hikari-with-Amane to Are-you-an-idiot-I-like-you-Yaya-senpai. Both of them are such untruthful children XD.]
Back to the hall, the Etoile Elections starting, Kagome gave Ashibarus seat to Chiyo and told her to cheer for Nagisa with it. On stage, the St Spica pair, Amane and Hikari appeared first and the students cheered. [Amane in tux, Hikari in a flowery dress, just like a Prince and Princess] Back stage, Nagisas looking very serious, Tamao tried to relax Nagisa by holding her hand and told her to look at her, Nagisa nodded and smiled. With determined faces, the St Miator pair, Nagisa and Tamao walked to the stage [Tamao in a white dress, Nagisa in a red dress]. Similarly, the students cheered for them. Back stage, Chikaru commented how cute Nagisa and Tamao looked, sensing daggers shooting towards her from Shion, Chikaru grinned and said of course the Amane and Hikari pair was perfect, the majestic-looking Prince and the delicate, gentle Princess. However, the St Miators pair with their generous giving of each other the strength to take care, assist each other and sheer determination, which was beautiful too. Besides that, Nagisas popular with the juniors XD, ahh, who will win the Etoile Election? Chikaru then asked Shizuma for her opinion. Shizuma seemed to be in a daze as she didnt reply till Rokujou called Shizumas name as its time for her to go on stage. Shizuma gave flower bouquets to the respective pairs, while giving the St Spica pair the flower bouquet, Shizuma said that finally huh? Amane replied that she would like to confirm Shizumas words to her in episode 21 and looked lovingly down at Hikari. Looking at the lovingly couple, Shizuma wished them good luck. Moving to the St Miator pair, Shizuma was momentarily stunned by Nagisas glaze till Tamao interrupted by calling Shizumas name. Shizuma turned and was met with Tamaos firm glaze [Which was screaming, shes mine, bitch! Muahahah!]
Shizuma smiled and praised them. Tamao thanked Shizuma and squeezed Nagisas hand. Nagisa seemed shocked by the action and snapped out of the trance. Tamao added that they will work hard for the sake of St Miator. Giving the flower bouquet to Tamao, Shizuma wished them good luck, stole a last glance at Nagisa before leaving the stage. Nagisa stared longingly at the leaving Shizuma but was interrupted again when Tamao called her name. Back stage, Shizuma didnt stop walking even after Rokujou called her. Rokujou tried to go after her but was stopped by Shion, Chikaru said that itll be alright as the Etoile wouldnt need to be appearing so soon. On stage, Nagisa still seemed distracted. Shizuma walked outside, stomping the snow, apparently in a pissed mood. The Etoile Election continued as Amane carried Hikari, bridal style and declared that she will protect Hikari with her all heart [Just like in the manga, Chapter 10, Amane also carried Hikari]. The fangirls went craaazy lol. As it went on, Shizuma was at the greenhouse, recalling her times with Nagisa in the greenhouse in episode 6 and episode 10. The St Lulim girls and Chiyo were dashing to the cathedral where the dance would be held, lol surprisingly, Kagome ran the fastest considering her short height and legs is this the power of Ashibaru worshippers?! Back to Shizumas flashbacks of her times with Nagisa in episode 10 and episode 22 where Nagisa told Shizuma that she believes the dying plant will bloom flowers beautifully again. Looking at the indeed blooming plant, Shizumas filled with mixed feelings.
At the cathedral, the pairs were preparing, as the music starts, both pairs started dancing. While dancing with Tamao, Nagisa flashbacked to the first and last dance she had with Shizuma in episode 25. Meanwhile, Shizumas at the music room where she flashbacked to the times with Nagisa there in episode 6 and episode 17. Back to the dance floor, the girls were amazed by the gracefulness Nagisa and Tamao displayed with their dance. Chikaru said that both pairs were beautiful but the Nagisa and Tamao pair looked relaxed and perfect in harmony. Even Rokujou was shocked by the beautiful dance like the time Shizuma with Nagisa Rokujou looked a little guilty at the thought of that. Finally the girls finished their dances and were panting hard, everyone were clapping at the beautiful performances. The St Lulim girls and Chiyo dashed to the next destination, the church to witness the announcement of the Etoile Election result. Back to Shizuma who was standing below the Love Tree, flashbacking to the first time she met Nagisa there in episode 1. Leaning against the tree trunk, Shizuma grinded her teeth and muttered out Nagisas name before running to the church. At the church, the pairs were lined up properly as they wait for the results. -Cue to Shizuma dashing to the church- The announcer prepared to pronounce the results when suddenly the church door swings open with the panting Shizuma standing in the middle of the opened door.
Shizuma yelled Nagisas name. Everyone was shocked probably except Chikaru who was looking thoughtfully at the scene and saying Finally huh?. Shizuma strolled confidently with a smile towards Nagisa, stopped suddenly and yelled Nagisa, I love you! [Shizuma used Aishiteru not Suki nor Daisuki, its love not like =)] Everyone was sent into another shock. Tamao too, but then she closed her eyes and smiled. Shizuma hollered Nagisas name again, silently begging her to come to her. Nagisa seemed undecided as she murmured, But but . Tamao took charged as she hugged Nagisa from behind, Really, it cant be help huh. Smiling again, Tamao whispered Itterasshai, Nagisa-chan. [Itterasshai is used to see someone off home/work. So Tamao would be expecting Nagisa back lol XD, like a parent would do I reckon.] Pulling the red ribbon along with the green ribbon off, Tamao pushed Nagisa forward and encouraged her to go to Shizumas side. [As I said, this kinda symbolized Tamaos letting Nagisa go, shes not her partner anymore. Touched by Tamaos support, Nagisa turned to Shizuma who was waiting with her arms opened, Nagisa ran towards Shizuma, smiling. Shizuma captured her in a hug and the crowd went gasped. Shizuma told Nagisa, Lets go, smirked at Rokujou who gave a start, grabbed Nagisas hand and ran out of the church. Rokujous calling Shizumas name was heard as the girls ran off. However in the end, Rokujou accepted Shizumas ways because its Shizuma after all. Meanwhile, Tamao turned and closed her eyes, clearly in anguish, congratulating Nagisa twice. Running with Shizuma to the side of the lake, Nagisa stopped to catch her breath.
Shizuma asked if Nagisas alright, Nagisa in turn asked what theyre going to do now. Shizuma confusingly replied, what to do? Nagisa said Eh? You havent thought of anything yet? Blushing, Shizuma said that it cant be help as snatching Nagisa away was an impromptu decision lol. [Kawaiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii~~~] Shizuma extended her hand to Nagisa and suggested that they run some more then. Back in the church, Amane and Hikari were crowned Etoile, Amane remarked that she wasnt that satisfied that she won like that lol, Hikari agreed and said but, shes really happy right now, Amane nodded too. As Shion presented the Etoile necklaces to the new Etoile, Nagisa and Shizuma made D.I.Y [Do it yourself] flower necklaces LOL. Shion then placed the red pendent on Hikari. Everyone clapped as they celebrate the birth of a new Etoile. At the choir, Yaya gave a wink to Hikari and making her emo. Likewise, Shizuma placed the flower necklace on Nagisa, both of them stared at each other lovingly before Nagisa lunged forward and initiate a kiss. -Cue slow version of OP1, Shoujo Meiro de Tsukamaete by Misato Aki- Both of them fell on the green patch of grass still locked in a kiss, creating a peaceful but sensuous scene XD. As the credits roll, snapshots of what happened later were displayed, Amane and Hikari, the new Etoile, tending to the plants and flowers in the greenhouse. Yaya, back to her teasing mode again as she snatched Tsubomis choir book away. Chiyo, clumsy as ever, takes a fall as she cleaned up the room lol. Tamao, still in her protective mode, tried to sneak Nagisa away from Shizuma who was standing beside them lol. Last but not least, Chikaru with her harem uh I mean cute little sisters in various cosplay dresses in the newly established tea ceremony club. The last scene, Nagisas leaning against the door of her room while Tamaos leaning against the opposite side, the girls were silence for a while before Tamao whispered, Welcome back, Nagisa-chan, in contrast to the Itterasshai earlier. - END -
Seriously, I replayed the last 7 minutes over 20 times now lol ahhh, this is such a happy ending but yet not so happy as we will be kept wondering about Tamaos words of Itterasshai and Okaerinasai lol. Its like Tamaos welcoming and sending Nagisa out like a mother would do but does Tamao really think that way? Alright, now Im really happy with the Tsubomi x Yaya development or rather implied ok? LoL. I wonder if Tsubomis seriously comforting Yaya or just the other victim of I-love-Hikari-but-she-doesnt-love-me disease but anyways, I hope the best for them and leave it to fanfics heh *grins*. A really relaxing ending, the St Lulim girls providing comic relief every now and then instead of making the whole episode all angsty and serious. Chikaru proved to be the winner as she kinda predicted what will happen as she was rather involved in the relationships, comforting both Hikari and Nagisa in the previous episodes. Chikaru won me over with her display in episode 16/Carmen Play episode, so Chikaru FTW! Haha.
Anyways, I love the crashing wedding scene lol, kinda reminded me of the scene in Mai Otome where Kazuya crashed the Otome ceremony of Akane lol. The smirking Shizuma shots were sexy too heh, the old confident Shizumas back XD. I was like YAY when Shizuma hollered, Nagisa, I love you!. Tamaos angst was gut wrenching too as she forced on a smile looking at Shizuma taking Nagisa away ahh but no, I must be happy for Shizugisa! LoL. Im pretty satisfied with the ending, the parallel between the Hikamane and Shizugisa pair was meaningful at the exchanging Etoile necklaces scene. Both pairs won, there were no losers even though the Shizugisa pair didnt get the real Etoile necklaces, flower necklaces are sexy too lol. Surprisingly, Nagisa initiated the kiss at the end, from the klutzy, clumsy Nagisa to a confident, in love Nagisa. Its pretty apparent of both Nagisa and Shizuma growing relationship and also the quality of the art lol in the flashbacks. I think what made me laughed out the most was Chikaru and her little harem uh cute cosplaying little sisters at the end lol. Seriously, Im having mix feelings whether I would hope for a second season or even an OVA, because I dont want to put into depression of Shizuma graduating from St Miator and Nagisa all sad about it~~~!
Art: 8.5/10 [Seriously it was great, compared to previous episodes]
Story: 8/10 [... Shizugisa! Hikamane!]
Characters: 8.5/10 [Chikaru ftw~]
Overall: 9/10
Zettai ni wasuremasen [I'll never forget it].
Oh yeah, the screenshots were all taken from 2chan.
Here's some GIF I got from 2chan;
Spin spin~ lol
Blushing, pouting Shizuma~ Aww~
