   Full Metal Panic! - The Second Raid Ep12
[Posted @ 11:11 PM]
Dun wanna tok more, on with Full Metal Panic! - The Second Raid Ep12 screenshots.

Continued from Ep11 ... Sousuke saw the message on the newspaper, 'To the child of Bdakshon's tiger, meet Hamidra at Tsim Sha Tsui.' Obviously the message is for Sousuke. Then blah blah, the situation between North and South China gets bad to worse and if it's not settled by 6am, Hong Kong will get it lol. Scene change to Gates lol doing a drama casting himself as Yulan in a call to Yufan. LoL Gates's never never fails to amuse me lol. Scene to the office of the Hunter guy from before, talking to himself before someone knocked the door and said someone wanted to see Hunter. Then we hear Kaname's voice saying she wanna see Hunter. Sousuke went to the place as stated in the message, got a scolding from the old man there and took a map from him.

The map leaded him to this park, Sousuke sat one the benches. Suddenly there was this vibrating sound ... coming from the dustbin beside him. Sousuke retreived a handphone from there and answered it. The voice of Yufan telling Sousuke to get on a taxi she had prepared for him. In the taxi, Sousuke tried to get the driver to say something but failed lol. When Sousuke got off the taxi, Yufan was there hiding in a dark corner telling Sousuke to go to the second floor of the building in front of him as 'He' was waiting for him. Sousuke got out his gun, went into the room and saw Gaulun alive and kicking on a bed LOL. [SHOCKU!] Sousuke couldn't believe it ... he thought he had killed him. LoL. Gaulun began to taunt Souske with his nutty words lol.

Then blah blah, Gaulun's the one who pasted the message around the papers ... and then Gaulun told Sousuke the organization he was working for, Amalgam. Their objective is to research and develop new military technologies and test them in combat and they will go as far as to causing wars just to test it. Sousuke asked Gaulun if the happenings in Hong Kong is Amalgam's doing too? Gaulun said it's his and Amalgam's looking high and low for them. Suddenly Yufan arrived outside the building in Venom, called Gaulun ... Sensei, said Goodbye and left. Gaulun then said he raised the twins, Yufan and Yulan and the destruction around here was caused by them on Gaulun's acting orders ...

Gaulun added that Yufan will probably died under the hands of either Mithril or Amalgam's Execution Squad. Amalgam's Execution Squad's strong and even Sousuke's comrades might not win against them said Gaulun. Scene change to Yufan in vemon attacking the Mithril people and stuff. Then at the same time, Amalgam people [Gates's the leader of the Amalgam Execution Squad] were also hunting her down. Sousuke began booming Gaulun with questions regarding 'Whispered's and said that if Amalgam had already got a 'Whispered' why would they attack Kaname?! Scene in the background, Leonard as the Amalgam's 'Whispered'. [Ohh so both Tessa and Leon are 'Whispered' ... runs in the family huh]

Gaulun simply replied that cos Leonard's not complete, different 'Whispered's got different knowledge/abilities. Sousuke got agitated and demanded Gaulun to tell him Amalgam's base and stuff. Gaulun was like i'm bored of this subject. Sousuke ... left with no choice, begged Gaulun to tell him. Gaulun's disappointed at Sousuke and wondered if this is the Kashim he knew ... and flashed back to five years ago where he first saw Sousuke and complimented Sousuke's 'pure, innocent, beautiful, saintly' eyes, that gives out no weaknesses and stuff. Gaulun then turned the subject around and said but now, what the hell happened to your face. LOL. [Gaulun's expression's so priceless when he mocked Sousuke LOL!]

Scene change to TDD HQ, Tessa ordered the use of Arbalest as a decoy to ensure the safety of everyone and besides Sousuke hasn't come back yet ... Vice-captain, Richard Mardukas ain't happy about Tessa worrying for Sousuke who had abandoned his mission and they had a little quarrel lol. [You go girl~] Tessa won the quarrel lol, that scene was really cool, Tessa's all grown up now ... [Sniffs] LOL. Tessa even admitted her love for Sousuke in front of everyone! LOL! Meanwhile Kurz was commenting whether if the communication line was opened on purpose so that everyone could hear it or what? LoL. Everyone really pumped up of not disappointing their 'hime-sama' [Princess] and on with their mission.

Scene change to Gaulun taunting and insulting Sousuke and his comrades ... and how Sousuke's becoming a 'human'. Sousuke fired a shot at the pillow Gaulun's lying on. Gaulun added that he's dying and he wants to drag people with him ... So he ordered Yufan to send Hong Kong into a Sea of Fire and Yulan to kill Kaname. Sousuke got so pissed off that he shot Gaulun. [The tension of Gaulun taunting Souske with Kaname's death is pretty cool!!!] Then a ticking sound was heard, i supposed a bomb was set if Sousuke should kill Gaulun. LoL, that's so Gaulun-like. Sousuke jumped out of the window in the nick of time when the bomb exploded. -End-

Art: 8/10 [The same as always]
Story: 8/10 [Really great Ep! I like this Ep best aha LoL I really like how Gaulun taunted Sousuke and the story began to unfold! Whee!]
Characters: 8/10 [All hail to Tessa!]
Overall: 8/10

   Blood+ Ep2
[Posted @ 10:07 PM]
... Sorry i promised to blog Blood+ Ep2 last night but it slipped my mind lol, i was happily reading fanfics ... sleeping at 9pm hahaha then woke up at exactly 11pm to watch Godannar ... haha. Here's Blood+ Ep2 screenshots!

Ok, the evil in Saya awoke lol and fought the bat beast ... slicing it into half. [SO FREAKING COOL LOL The blood gushing out like water fountain. LOL Then the lifeless bat beast upper part twitching and stuff LOL So bloooody wicked!] After killing the bat beast, Saya fainted from shock. Hagi carried Saya, grabbed Kai and took off lol when the military people came. Hagi left them on the roof of some building and took off again lol by himself. Kai bought Saya to a hospital. Saya's dad, George came to visit. Kai tried to explain but George juz patted him on the head and asked him to go home and get some sleep. Kai's pissed cos he can't do anything to help. Back home, it's morning already, Kai switched on the TV and heard abt the news regarding his school. Then blah blah, the military's hiding the fact abt the beast and blaming on some guy killing the teacher.

Saya awoke and couldn't remember what happened. David appeared at the hospital and wanted to talk to George. Scene change to Kai and his girlfriend, Mao. Mao's trying to get Kai to go shopping and stuff with her. Mao got pissed when Kai refused and blah blah abt Kai not being the Kai she fell in love with lol. Kai got up and agreed, lol i think was enlighted, thanked Mao, rode his bike and went off. David told George about the monster and stuff, the posibility of Saya recovering her memories back and asked George to return Saya back to them in case she turn into some killing machine. Back in the hospital room, Saya had her fill, got up and changed into casual wear and was looking into the mirror when she was suddenly reminded of the scenes where she killed the bat beast and her hands stained with blood.

Saya walked down the stairs and out the room ... and overheard David and George talking. George said he wanted to bring Saya happiness and stuff and David juz said that Saya's the only weapon in the world designed to fight them ... and that's all. David continued to say Saya is meant for fighting and fighting and fighting ... George, leaving with no choice, agreed to discuss it with Saya. David saying that there's no time and left. George heard a noise ... ran to Saya's room and found her gone. Kai seemed to know where Saya will go ... Scene change to Saya sitting on the sand in the beach. Hagi appeared, playing his bass violin. Saya got up and asked Hagi if he knew who she really is. Hagi replied, only if she's prepared to go down that path once again. Kai arrived in his bike and called for Saya. Kai saw Hagi, got pissed and tried to punched him.

But failed. Hagi's pretty strong. Saya yelled for Hagi to stop. Hagi said ... if that's what you want ... and disappeared. LOL. Saya's confused and Kai told Saya that he will always be there for her, Riku and George will be there too, cos they're family. Saya and Kai returned home ... and a feast was waiting for them. Suddenly there was a call, George answered it ... and there's some barking sound + some growling beasty sounds in the background lol. Scene change to some guy in this public phone booth ... i think he's turning into a beast then a dog's barking at him ... scene ended with the guy reaching out for the dog and blood splatting the glasses of the public phone booth. [Poor dog got eaten.]

Art: 7/10

   YanZi @ IMM + 'Super Funkies' Recording
[Posted @ 6:56 PM]
Hey, i'm not dead yet! LoL, juz busy with the roadshow on tuesday and wednesday ... hahaha actually ... i was juz plain lazy lol. I'm still lazy, so i'm juz gona tok abt Yanzi @ IMM, yeah it's kinda late but here's a pic of her i took, kinda blurry. And the other is the ticket for the 'Super Funkies'.





Oook, now i'm in a better mood lol, after roadshow, i should have time ba ... heh but not to forget the tutorials i have to do ... sigh ... tomorrow got 3 tutorials sia. LAM, IB and SMM ... sigh 3 tutorials in a day, i wonder if i can survive without sleeping ... lol. Oh, yeah speaking of SMM, i slept through SMM lecture lol, really sleep sia ... i even dreamt lol. I think i slept for around 45 mins ba ... when i woke up, it was the last few slides le ... hahaha. I was really tired ba ... cos waited around 9hrs for YanZi to arrive. Slept for around 4hrs only haha. Cos fri got anime then 1am then sleep 5am woke up le ... bathed, then sit MRT at 6am ... reached there at 7am ... meet YanZi fan-friend. =)

Then waited ... till 2+pm ... some China girl, ok before we go into that, if you're from China, please do not feel insulted. I'm not saying all Chinese from China are as rude as this girl i'm going to describe. Anyways i have the China Chinese blood in me also, cos my Grandfather is from China lol. So it's kinda very direct hahaha. Ok what i describe later is true, if u dun believe u can ask the YanZi fan-friend and her friend and another friend i made while waiting at the Mediacorp for the 'Super Funkies' recording.

Ook, we stood up to wait for YanZi at around 2pm as usual, the crowd wasn't really alot when it was around 11am to 12noon and i was kinda worried lol. It's kinda a love-hate relationship, u want people to come so tat YanZi won't look bad but at the same time u don't want people to come cos more people will be queueing and ur chances are lower lol. But it doesn't really apply to me la, cos i go at 7am there was like only less than 20 people there. So after the YanZiUnlimited fanclub people went in the place exclusively 'booked' for them lol, it was time to stand up le ... then the YanZiUnlimited people started to warm up by singing up the songs YanZi's gonna sing later ... it's like practice lor, i dun really mind. But this China girl standing beside me kept whining when is YanZi is going to arrive and say 'Sing what sing la, YanZi haven't even come yet.' loosely translated from Mandarin. Yes, she said 'la', so i presume she stayed in Singapore for quite a while. As for how i know she's from China, actually it's pretty obvious right? From their command of Mandarin, their accent and their command of English. She asked me for the time, so i know. [I'm not saying all Chinese from China are like that but it's true wat.]

After that, at around 3pm plus, YanZi haven't come, i don't really mind too, cos i think it's worth it to wait for YanZi and besides YanZi won 4 important awards from Singapore Hits Awards the night before so the media must be chasing after her for interviews. And also, she's only staying in Singapore for a few days and flying back to Taiwan again, so YanZi being late is kinda expected. Well, she's not driving is it? And she doesn't come by plane right? And the China girl beside me kept whining how late and if YanZi don't come for the next dunno wat mins, she's going. I was like go la, who cares LOL, BETTER SIA. Then while waiting, YanZi's songs in 'A Perfect Day' kept playing in the Hi-fi system ba, so that when YanZi come, we will know how to sing and to attract passerbys to come ma, then the China girl kept complaining when the songs were played. Like 'What? Not again!' 'Listen until i'm sick le' loosely translated from Mandarin. I mean, if you're not a YanZi fan, go away, if you're, how can you be sick of listening to YanZi's songs?! God. I was so freaking pissed by then. I was resisting the urge to turn to her and say, shut the fuck up bitch.

I dun even wanna go to the snatching of tickets when the YanZiUnlimited people were giving out. Maybe that can be forgiven, i dun really mind when people snatch for limited stuff, i mean i will too, but i'm too tired to do so. She snatched one ticket and was complaining one person go so boring and stuff. My YanZi fan-friend also got one and wanted to give it to her ... i was shrugging lor, cos i wasn't THAT pissed with her as yet. Then when DJ, Ziyong arrived on stage, tok to us and said YanZi will arrive at 4pm instead, whoa that China girl whining whatever she whined, i can't even bother to remember now. Cos it's like 5 days later. Then when YanZi finally arrived, my anger disappeared [YAY] LoL, then i was singing and sreaming, snapping photos ... and stuff =). Then YanZi began to throw posters, i didn't get them, the China girl also didn't get it cos my YanZi fan-friend beside her got it lol. YanZi threw against the railing then it fell on the floor mah then juz then the security guard was standin there and gave it to my YanZi fan-friend lol, lucky girl. Later my YanZi fan-friend told me that China girl looked pissed with her cos she got it lol. After singing and stuff, it's time to QUEUE up to get our autographs ... i was FORCED to move in front sia lol, i wanted to stand there a while longer so that i can see YanZi mah, if not after getting signature, go behind, see what sia. LoL. I mean there's enough for everyone what, YanZi signed all the SINGAPORE VERSION of 'A Perfect Day' of people who queued on that day k.

So yeah i was forced in front, nvm, the China girl kept pushing me sia, i was pissed, cos there's a little girl standing in front of me, i don't like pushing people and especially kids, they could fall you know. I mean, yes getting YanZi's signature's important but, people's safety is first what. Besides the railing wheel was blocking me from walking also what kaoz, kept pushing till i couldn't stand any longer and told, yes i told the China girl not to push. The China girl yelled me at that it wasn't her pushing and besides there's a huge space in front of me. So i yelled back that there's a FREAKING LITTLE GIRL in front of me and i couldn't PUSH her right?! And the railing's wheel was blocking me too! China girl got scared LOL and said so fierce for what ... loosely translated from Mandarin. By tat time i already turned my head around, i heard that line even though she murmured. Haha. I was kinda proud of myself. LOL. Then the pushing went on then it became to my side sia. COS CHINA GIRL SQUEEZED to the side when i scolded her. I knew it was her. I mean, NOT YOU PUSH? MY FOOT SIA! LOL, still dare to blame the people behind. She even went in the queue earlier than me sia lol. From behind till in front. God. I was queuing from 7am then she came at 11am and whined so much and stuff. So when we went in the queue, her friend was like 5-6 people behind after us, she pulled her friend to her side in front of me sia. Then she turned around and saw me behind, stared at me then whispered something to her friend. I was pissed. I said out loud, 'FUCKING BITCH.' I doubt she understand sia, she didn't turn around later.

Oh if you think i'm rude, she even said 'Ta Ma De' during the waiting period out loud to everyone sia, who's rude here? She's the one who's rude first, first she pushed, then she lied, cut the queue and whispered probably bad stuff [How can be good? LoL] abt me to her friend. But of course evil and rude people always get their desserts cos the 'A Perfect Day' album she was holding is a China Version LOL! [Toldja she's from China.] They already said that the Warner people will only accept albums with the 'WarnerMusic' logo on the album, but China girl must be too dumb to understand and so her album didn't get signed and was 'chased' out of the queue. LOL, BAO YIN AH BAO YIN! LOL. Her friend's one got signed cos got WarnerMusic logo ha. She tried to get her friend to ask the staff if can sign on the album cover and the album lyrics book. Of course Staff said no LOL. U want GO BUY A SINGAPORE VERSION 'A PERFECT DAY' LA THEN RE-QUEUE! LOL. Serves you right.

Manz, now let's tok abt YanZi. Whoa, got up the stage, saw YanZi up close .... sooooooooooo shiok sia lol when it was my turn, YanZi signed finish le, looked up and smiled at me [YAYAYAYAYAYYAYYYYYY!!!] I smiled back and said thanks. Cos i was the first 70s ba, so she got the time to look up and smile ... then sign 'Sun Yan Zi' somemore haha. The rest behind, like my YanZi fan-friend got the signature 'YanZi', probably no time le. Ahhh, then my YanZi fan-friend gave me the ticket to the 'Super Funkies', i was surprised she didn't give to China girl lol, i thought she give her. Hahaha. Another BAO YIN ah!!! LoL. She doesn't deserve my YanZi fan-friend's ticket HMPH! LoL. God, so high to see YanZi hahahaha.

Then went to Mediacorp and waited to be ushered in ... there i made a new YanZi fan-friend yay. Hahaha, she talked to me first, i'm never the type to talk to people first and make friends. LoL. Unless ... i need to ask questions then i talk lol. Ha, it was fun, YanZi's live rocked man, screamed till my voice was husky the next day hahahahahhaa. So damn hhigggh. Then i forgot all abt China girl le lol. Till now.

Manz, that's long, i wanna go eat le. I'll be blogging Blood+ Ep2 tomorrow, i juz typed out the summary juz now. Heh. I hope i'm on a blogging mood ... CYA.

   Pani Poni Dash! Ep7
[Posted @ 10:51 PM]
VERY VERY TIRED tonight ... feeling so cranky and fucked up. Didn't feel like blogging at first but after sleeping for around 2hrs and 30mins juz now, i feel a little better but i'm still feeling quite weird. Oh, here's Pani Poni Dash Ep7 screenshots lol, they're the only set of screenshots in my folder, the rest i haven't done anything yet.

Hmm, let's see ... Becky lost the Janken Pon [Scissors, Paper, Stone], so her class have to clean up the school's pool lol. Then Ichijou-san's little sister arrived in their school searching for Ichijou-san. LoL, like sister like sister sia LOL, they're both weirdos and damn funny lol. Then alot of weird stuff happened, Ichijou-san's sister suddenly got kidnapped by the aliens then when they returned her, she became GODZILLA LoL, and she went around stomping stuff. LOL Then Mesousa was sent as the ... sacrifice to stop her hahaha [Ichijou-san was like good luck Mesousa LoL!] I know it's damn funny but i don't really remember haha, it's been so long. Ook, that's all i could remember.

Ahhh, i'll blog Gokujou Seitokai Ep17 tomorrow ba, i'm tired, tomorrow no school and wed no school and thurs no school and fri no school! YAY HOW COOL IS THAT!! Go for one day nia LOL. But ah gotta prepare for roadshow next week ... 8th and 9th November ... sianz. So fast sia, my heart not prepared yet lol. [Finding excuses]

Oh, i wanna tok abt yesterday, the class gathering at HQ's house lol, it was fun. Went there then they saw Karaoke, after a while we played Monopoly then some played Mahjong. Then halfway through playing Monopoly, it was 4pm!!!! So i switched on TV and watched D.N Angel and Saiyuki Reload while playing Monopoly. LoL, my friends are pretty honest, they pay when they come my property. LOL if i'm playing with my bros, we shut up de LOL, then let the person see for himself/herself de. If she/he didn't notice then TOO BAD! LOL. It's more fun that way muahahaha. But kind old me, didn't wanna mention to them lol.

After that, it was frying fried stuff like sotong balls, nuggets and making the sandwiches time. LoL, then we kinda bought and made too much, i eat i think 3-4 sandwiches and i feel so bloated le. After that we had a unoffical class meeting for a while abt our upcoming roadshow. After that, we chatted and slacked for a while. A while later we played games, first is what spin the bottle [We used pen LoL], truth or dare and stuff yeah, it wasn't successful cos we're too polite with each other lol. If my crazy friends were playing, we might strip sia! LOL. Ask personal questions like, do u pleasure yourself, how many times a day? LoL, when's ur first time and how many times u had sex for the past 6 months LOL. God. Or do a pole dance or strip tease, french kiss or what.

And i never play with them.

Oh going back, after that, we played this eh, like guess sentence by actions then we stand in a straight line, back towards each other except for the first one who will see the card with the sentence and act to the second then second will act to third, so on and so for. Those who guessed wrongly will get drawn by the lipstick lol. That was fun ha, now we know who can act and who can't lol. After that we played this game where we sit in a round circle then our hands have to do a beat then during that time, we have to say something. Like, the theme is 'Who is ur fave actor?' then first will beat then say name 'Tom Cruise' then pass on to second, who will say another, so on and so for. LoL, punishment is to eat sandwich ... which is horrible lol cos i feel so stuffed le.

After that, it's a wrap and we left =). It was fun. Yeah. Oh i wanna sleep early tonight, so freaking tired, i slept only 1hr and 15mins today, excluding the 2hr and 30mins nap when i came back from school. Yeah i was busy rushing the REAL programme website and consolidating every Business Units' website ... then need to change this and that cos i can't view the pictures. Sigh, then i created another new template for vPOST cos it's weird to have the same template for main REAL programme page then my vPOST page lol. So i changed lor, which is hard work even though i used TCZomic's template and i'm using inframes which is THANK GOD, more easier if i need to make changes to template lol.

I was doing it like last night 9.30 PM till 5.30 AM ... actually maybe 11.30 PM ba cos i was watching The Apprentice at 10 PM, then i went to bath then i sat down like a damn moron for 5+hrs ... doing up the stuff and the REAL programme main page. Yeah really really tired when i got up at 6.45 AM after a short sleep, then i check the links again, went to office to print peer assessment stuff, log book thingy and timetable.

I think i was half asleep during lectures lol ... i was kinda dozing off, my head hurts too. After lecture, went to canteen 2 for a short break then went to underpass for class meeting for NP roadshow next week. Then i bought a can of cold coffee which was a great help. I managed to input what was discussed in my little brain. LoL. Ook gtg cya.

   Blood+ Ep1
[Posted @ 11:09 PM]
Actually i wanna post at 10pm de but my brothers were baking chocolate cake so i need to go help if not i have no share in it -.-||| how pathetic ... lol this is reality kids! Anyways here's Blood+ Ep1 screenshots~

I think reviews for future Blood+ will be brief short ones [maybe] cos i wanna probably concentrate on other titles XP. Aiya it really depends ba, if i'm in a mood, i'll go in detail and it'll be long. Anyways god the teaser at the front started out really bloody, killing and monsters wooo! I like. Ok, the setting's in this place, i think Vietnam if i'm not wrong, cos the people looked like Vietnamese ... really. Yeah there's the military, monsters and the common folks were killed brutally by this particular red eyed, long-haired girl who wielded a sword/blade/katana? Soooo freaking chilling lol. Ohhh, i love the OP~, 'Aozora no Namida' i'm beginning to like Takahashi Hitomi's voice~

After the bloody killing scene, scene changes to a high school where the main character, Otonashi Saya's doing high jumps. She almost cleared the pole but i guess her butt got in the way LOL. Anyways her friend, Kinjou Kaori who was watching her jump, stated how close Saya had been to clearing the pole. As Saya laid on the mattress, probably tired, she called for Kaori to come closer, as Kaori came closer and laid on top of Saya's stomach, lol Saya's stomach made a grumbling noise. 'It's snack time.' Manz, i really have to say something abt this scene. I really sense no 'shoujo-ai' vibes at all lol. [In case some don't know, shoujo-ai means girls love]

Ok, before you shoujo-ai fans send draggers shooting towards me lol, allow me to explain. Firstly, when Saya called out for Kaori, i suspect Saya's too tired to even say out she's hungry, so to show a hungry person, it's better to put it in action right? Besides, it's funnier, rather than just Saya whining that she's hungry. So people probably misunderstood there, this also kinda show the relationship between Saya and Kaori, that desires need not be put into words but in actions. Bleh, probably I AM the one reading to much into this lol. Anyways, scene change to Saya and Kaori sitting under a tree and Saya's eating her bento.

Staring at Saya's gobbling face, Kaori giggled and said that it's just like Saya who couldn't give it her all with the jump on an empty stomach. Saya replied that she could had clear the jump if not for her empty stomach. Then the subject changed to Kaori commenting that Saya eats so much but still stay slim unlike Kaori who has to worry about diets lol. Saya just shrugged it off. Kaori, probably teasing Saya, pushed Saya over saying she's jealous. As they laid on the green grass, a two fighter planes and a bomber flew past. Saya went 'What a big plane' and Kaori said that the big plane's a bomber and it's probably on its way to a war.

Kaori added that she had heard from it from her mother who worked on the base and she felt disgusted over the fact that her mum and her are able to eat and making a living because of the base. Saya just said she couldn't relate to that. Kaori kinda remembered that Saya couldn't remember anything from a year ago. Saya nodded and said that that bomber, it's like she had seen it before. Later, Miyagusuku Kai, Saya's adopted brother called out to Saya that it's time to go to the hospital. Kaori was like saying how nice is for Kai-senpai to pick her up and how hot Kai is lol. Saya kinda shrugged it off and said really, Kai seems to gets into lots of fights and she hates fighting.

Kaori continued saying that Kai used to play baseball and was even the ace pitcher. Saya had no idea about it. Saya then left with Kai on his bike, on the ride, Saya asked him about him playing baseball. Kai confirmed it and said he quited before Saya came. Saya went on to say it's been one year and she doesn't seem to recall her past. Kai told her the past is irrevelant, what is most important is that they're family now, even if they're not blood-related. Saya felt assured by his words. To make Saya feel better, Kai suggested to drive past the bench Saya like. Scene change to some office, probably the military, talking about some capturing of mouse thingy.

In the hospital, Saya's receiving her treatments and she still couldn't recall her past. At the background, the radio's talking about some serial killer in Nago City, Okinawa. Scene change to Saya walking through this street then hearing someone playing the bass violin and stopped to listen. While listening, she was reminded of visions from her past. A castle like place, a girl in a kinda European dress, holding a key and unlocking a door. Engrossed in her visions, Saya embarrassed herself when she got too carried away when she tried to stop the herself in her vision from unlocking the lock. The guy playing the bass violin stared at the running Saya. By the way, his name's Hagi LoL.

Saya returned home to only realized that she had forgotten her shoes for the competition and ran back to school to get them. As she ran out of their shop, she bumped into this David guy and the David guy seemed to be rather hostile to Saya and wanted to talk to Saya's dad. Saya's dad urged Saya to run along and she went. As Saya ran off, Hagi's standing outside looking. In the shop, David asked Saya's dad if there's any changes as it has been a year. Saya's dad replied that even so he will not give Saya to him. David retorted that is Saya a replacement for Saya's dad's dead daughter. Saya's dad kept quiet. David then placed the money for the month on the counter and left.

In front of the school, Saya found out that the school gates have been locked and lol jumped over it in the end. As Saya ran in, Hagi appeared in front of her, said he has found her and brought out a dragger. Saya ran away screaming and bumped into a teacher. Saya told the teacher about Hagi and he went to investigate. LOL GOD! When the teacher walked towards Saya, like as he was trying to scare her cos he was facing the touchlight to his face and i was expecting him to go boo! or something but no suddenly a ... monster claw covered his head and pulling him up the roof. Then sounds of cracking were heard, you know the usual stuff. Saya was like what the and glanced upwards ...

But was greeted by the teacher's intact [CHEY!] dead body falling back down. Wait, before we talk abt the monster, i'm curious why the teacher's body seems ... intact? Just a few bite holes were on his neck and upper chest. WHY?! I heard so many crunching and cracking noise but what?! The head didn't get bitten off or the hand didn't get chewed off?! I'm rather disappointed here. It kinda make no sense. LoL or am i the one reading it in too much? Ok back, Saya of course got so scared that she fell on her butt then the monster slowly descending down along with too much drops of blood in its mouth ... i mean where did the blood come from?! It didn't even bite off anything! Makes no sense again.

Can't be the monster's drool right? ... If so ... i have no comments. With the monster in front of her, Saya got up and rannnnnn~ The monster roared. The military had readings from the monster's roar and sent people over. Back at the shop, Kaori came to tell Saya's dad that Saya left her shoes behind and she had collected it for her. Saya's dad called Kai to probably go to the school and fetch Saya. Scene change to the school, Saya ran inside the teachers' office calling for help but found noone. She then ran and locked the door, assuming that she was saved but NOT! LoL, the monster crashed the glass door and was prying open the cracked door. Saya got hurted due to the monster-crash-door impact.

She got up and ran further in but was met with Hagi standing at the hallway. Hagi issued a dragger towards Saya ... went past her [COOL! Slow motion rock!] and into the monster's stomach behind her. Hagi sent another cross like thing into the monster's eye. Wiggling in pain, the monster sent Saya slamming to the windows beside her and Saya fainted. Outside the school, Kai had arrived and saw the dead body of the teacher. At the hallway, Hagi was kicking the monster's butt. Kai heard the sounds of broken glasses and ran to investigate. At the same time, Hagi carried saya and ran further in and into the chem lab. In the chem lab, Saya asked Hagi what is that thing. Hagi replied that it's a Chiropteran, better known as a bat.

Oh so it's a bat beast, that explains the intacted body and blood flowing from its mouth ... hmmm ok, but it still doesn't explain the cracking sounds! LoL. Ah, whatever. Back at the chem lab, Hagi opened up his violin casing thingy to bring out a blade and unwrapped the bandage on his right hand to reveal a monster like hand. Then he used the blade to cut his monster like hand. Saya saw the scene and was like excuse me what are you doing!? Hagi didn't say anything but bring the bloody hand towards's Saya's face, asking her to drink the blood. Saya refused and pushed Hagi out of the way. The bat beast crashed into the chem lab's door, with its hurt right eye rejuvenating in front of them. [COOOOOLLL!!!!]

Hagi calmly sucked the blood from his hand, the bat beast attacked Saya, Hagi grabbed Saya outta the way in the nick of time. Kai, following the blood traces, found the chem lab. Scene change to a HOT SCENE!!! LoL, i mean to Saya getting pushed down and kissed by Hagi! It wasn't really a kiss ba, Hagi's just feeding the blood to Saya. Kai arrived at the chem lab only to see them kissing but was shocked when the bat beast roared and Kai went what the hell?! After kissing Saya, Hagi told her to fight. Saya after being 'kissed' or rather feed by Hagi, remembered the scene from the teaser at the front and the vision she had when she heard Hagi playing the violin ... and her wounds were healed too! Something has awaken in Saya. -End- WHOA lol, nice ok, the monster's great!! WHOA I LIKE! [Going crazy] Ok, hey the ending's not bad ... i like.

Art: 7/10
Story: 7/10 [Oooh, lots of possiblities in Ep1, MORE BLOOD! MORE GORE! MORE MONSTERS! PLEASE! LOL]
Characters: 7/10 [Hmm i like the characters so far]
Overall: 7/10

Yeah making a chocolate layered cake. Hahaha, i'm probably bringing some for class gathering at HQ's house tomorrow. We only made one le ... dunno if enough or not ... see ba later.

Oh later 11.30 PM Channel U got YanZi @ the Kang Qi thingy programme lol, looks funny hehehe from the previews. Ohhhh i also saw SingPost advertisement on TV quite a number of times lol. That guy on TV looks familiar ... is he the one who attended our Intergrated Presentation in NP? I ... am not sure, i'm bad with both faces and names LOL.

   Mai Otome Ep1
[Posted 10:00 PM]
Finally! I've finally finished Mai Otome Ep1 review!! LOL, took me around 1+hr to finish the other half ... shessh. Whoa 3000+ words lol. I'm good! LoL. Anyways here's the awaited Mai Otome Ep1 screenshots with a special 9 shots tonight!

Finally! First thing first, [Drools at Shizuru-sama's parts~], NO! Uh ok, i know there's many great Mai Otome reviews by veteran anime bloggers, mine might look stupid and my english ain't that good cos i juz type whatever comes into my mind and my mind consist of simple english words LOL. So don't really expect much from this, i'm juz doing it for fun and for my own viewing pleasure =). Ook, so if you don't mind my mediocre review, read on then!

Ok Ep1 started with a city [Probably Wind Bloom] under attack by monsters later known as Slaves and the princess's missing. Then we see a lady wounded cradling a kinda oval-shaped container running away from a Slave, then taking refuge in a canal. After the Slave left, the lady placed down the oval-like container containing a baby [Most probably the princess?], told her to live on and let the container flow down the canal. After that, the lady got up and was surrounded by baddies. Seems like the lady's the Blue Jewel of Heaven Otome and she lost her Otome powers. As one of the baddie attacked her, scene changed to the container, the pendant with a big blue gemstone smack in the middle the baby was wearing glowed brightly for a moment and faded. The container continued flowing down the river ...

Scene changes to 14 years later, Yumemiya Arika stumbling in a desert then couldn't take the heat anymore and fainted among the sands. In the desert, some sort of ship was sailing through it ... then we see Tate uh i mean, a Tate-lookalike, who's name is Sergay Wang sitting on a bench probably returning from a search. suddenly there's a commotion that Coolaks were sighted. As Sergay got up to check it out, a kid ran out from nowhere and told him there's something at the back, Sergay juz said it's trash lol and kiddo said no, it's a big trash! LoL. While looking at the Coolaks, Sergay was flirting with one of the lady there. [How Tate like.] As the ship zoomed back, in the mist of the sand, lol Arika got up upset that her plan for the ship to notice her and rescue her failed LOL.

The big trash the kid was refering to was probably her lol. When Arika found out that her water bottle was empty, lol she went 'Ahhh, Hold on a second! Seriously, save me!!~' and ran after the ship lol. -Inserts OP 'Dream * Wing' In- Oook, the OP's not really that powerful but it does have its effects anyways but not as strong. Gives me like 'Hope' feeling whereas Mai Hime's 'Shining Days' gives me this 'rush' feeling lol XP. Oooh lol, i like some parts though especially at the start of the OP when the characters are lined up in two lines then the cam went back to front, then to the left, cam back to front, great feeling. Tons of spoilers in the OP manz LOL, i shouldn't type much anymore ahhh~ LoL.

Ok after OP ended, scene changed to Arika who probably walked all the way to Wind Bloom kingdom lol, the ship didn't even stop for her XP. Scene change to a cafe in WindBloom Kingdom, Nina Wang's staring at a picture of her father, Sergay and herself in a pocket watch. [Later we'll know more about her father-complex lol] A waiter served ice-cream soda on her table, Nina's surprised cos she didn't ordered it. The waiter said it's a treat by a customer, scene changed to the people in the Cafe toasting to Nina, the future Otome. Then everyone around stood up and toasted too. LoL, Nina blushed, stood up unsure of how to react but thanked everyone anyways. Behind Nina, Arika's feeling pretty thirsty ... saw the ice-cream soda on Nina's table and went *o* LOL.

LoL guess what happened, clumsy old Arika fell face forwards, overturned the table sending Nina falling backwards. Oh what about the ice-cream soda i hear, lol up it goes in the sky ... Arika dashed for it, caught the glass with the soda without the ice-cream, drank it, felt satisfied and passed out. [LoL really reminds me of Mokona from Tsubasa Chronicle!!!] Hey how about the ice-cream lol? Nina, still sitting on Arika's back, had her face directly under the dropping ice-cream lol. [Damn funny scene.] Sergay came rushing in, asking if Nina's alright. Nina's surprised to see her beloved otou-sama, and so was Sergay cos of Nina's sitting position with her legs wide open. LoL, Nina shrieked out loud. Scene change to Natsuki Kruger as the principal of Galderobe, an Otome school.

And Shizuru Viola [KYAAAAAAHHHH!] having tea as usual~ wooo. Natsuki seemed pissed over this Swartz organization who's bugging them recently. Natsuki also said it's been 14 years and they have yet to find 'her' [I suspect it's Arika] so had asked Shizuru back to help her. Shizuru doesn't seem to mind and said that it's the job as the Five Pillars to serve the academy. Ooh, Natsuki did her 'flip-hair' thingy~ then said she's counting on Shizuru. Shizuru simply said that listening to Natsuki's concerns part of her job too. [LOL! As expected of Shizuru-sama~~~] Scene change to Arika awaking on a bench and saw Nina apologizing to her father about the earlier incident. Sergay doesn't really seem to mind but Nina's making it a big issue about it. LoL, afterall her beloved Otou-sama saw her in such a embarrassing position lol.

Arika walked towards them, wanted to return the handkerchief and thank Ni-na-chan for the soda. Nina lol gave her a kinda sinister expression, snatched her handkerchief away and told Arika to call her Nina. Only her father can call her Ni-na LOL! Later one of Sergay's subordinates [Yukino lookalike!] came to fetch him. As Sergay was preparing to leave, lol he said that Arika reminded him of an ant. [Scene change to Arika with an ant head LOL!] Arika's not pleased at all lol and yelled her name out loud. Sergay kinda shrugged it off and introduced himself as Artair Kingdom's residing embassy officer and left. LoL, Nina also left with a persistent Arika trying to make up for the soda she drank. Nina was like get the hell away from me lol. [Manz, Arika's voice sure is loud if i was Nina, i would do that too]

Then blah blah, scenes of Wind Bloom kingdom are shown and Arika getting hyper excited over it lol. Nina's pretty embarrassed over it and sat faaarr away from Arika in the train. As the train passed the castle, Arika asked Nina how the princess in the castle is like. Nina doesn't know cos the princess had yet to ascend the throne. Scene changes inside the castle where the servants are searching and calling for the princess. Woot, the we see Aoi carrying a cat, Mikoto, she's one of the maids working in the castle and probably the princess's personal maid. Mr Afro guy probably the head security or something, yeah they're searching for the princess too. Scene change to Nina and Arika walking outside the train station and Nina was like, u go ur way, i go my way, bye. LOL.

Arika cut in by asking if Nina knows where's Galderobe. Nina looked surprised for a moment and thought that maybe Arika got the idea from her school uniform and asked what business Arika has with the academy. Arika replied that she's searching for her mother and she used to be an Otome so she hoped that by studying in Galderobe, an Otome school, she could ... [find her mother] Nina cut in with an impossible before Arika could finish her sentence. Arika a little bothered by Nina's words got excited quickly when she saw Shizuru on TV LOL! [As expected of Shizuru-sama!] Arika thought Shizuru's the princess and Nina corrected her by saying that she's an Otome, Meister Shizuru-sama. Arika commented that Shizuru's pretty. [Duh LoL] Then Arika goes around touching the holograph stuff and saying if they're holographs ...

That is until she pointed to a building where a girl was stand at the rooftop ready to jump lol. In comes bratty Mashiro~, yes she's the girl who's getting ready to jump, lol a complete different from her character in Mai Hime. In Mai Otome, Mashiro is the princess of Wind Bloom Kingdom and she had just ran away from the castle. Scene change to Mashiro turning around, making a face at her pursuers [=O] and jumped LoL. I think she's aiming for the next building but couldn't reach it ... and fell down of course. Nina saw the whole scene, jumped to the rescue and halting the traffic. Nina's shocked to see Arika running pass her even though Nina had ran first. Arika opened up the cloak she's holding and told Nina to hold the other end so that it makes a big blanket for Mashiro to fall on. But the pressure's too big for the both of them, Mashiro came down on the cloak, bounced up and into the nearby wooden box filled with paper boxes.

LoL, Mashiro got up, acting like a true born royalty and compliment Nina and Arika for saving her. Mashiro's pursuers caught up to them and demand for Mashiro to be returned. Mashiro accuses the pursuers to be kidnappers and command Nina and Arika to save her. LoL, Arika got so worked up that she grabbed Mashiro's hand and ran away. The pursuers were trying to explain and one of them reached to his coat for something. [Most probably some ID to tell them they're guards from the castle.] Nina mistook them as probably taking out his gun and attacked him. As Arika and Mashiro were running, a pursuer blocked the path in front of them, Arika pushed Mashiro to the side [LOL! Mashiro's expression when she was pushed was damn funny LOL] and jumped over the pursuer, pushing him back and Nina gave him a final blow.

As Arika's praising's Nina's Kungfu skills, Nina asked her where's the girl. LoL, Arika was like 'Are?' searched high and low for her and found Mashiro flat on her face in the nearby drain's water LOL. Arika went 'Arara.' LOL. At the same time, a baddie [looks like one, his face was covered by his hood] had a photo of Mashiro and confirmed Mashiro's identity although her face was in the water LOL and took out this ... strange crystal ... Scene changed to the castle where Mr Afro's screaming at the pursuers earlier that lost Mashiro and company LoL. Scene change to Arika, Mashiro and Nina hiding behind the bushes in an old airport. Mashiro's feeling soaked and wet due to the earlier accident and was demanding for a set of new clothes. Arika offered her cloak, bratty Mashiro refused and said it's dirty lol. Arika's pretty upset and called Mashiro an ungrateful person.

While Arika and Mashiro were aruging, Nina said she's leaving. Mashiro got worried and said that if Nina's abandoning her lol. Pissed that Nina wasn't going to protect her, she displayed her royal ring sending Nina kneeling before her. Mashiro then blah blah on how Otomes from Galderobe are juz decorative flowers to put beside royal sides and can't disobey them in any way. [Bratty!!!~ LoL] Arika's surprised to hear that Nina's a Otome. Scene changed to a baddie from earlier, he's probably from the Swartz organization sent to kill Mashiro. Using the crystal's sharp point to prick his finger ... blood flows out and on the crystal and it glowed. The baddie then chanted some magic words and summoned a 'Slave' with it. Scene change to the Slave Mr baddie had summoned emerging from the mountains behind where Arika, Nina and Mashiro were standing.

Hearing the loud boom voice, three of them turned and saw the Slave turning and target locking at Mashiro LoL and sent a blast over them. Arika grabbed Mashiro's hand and ran away from the fireball. Mashiro freaked out when the Slave appeared in front of them and demanded Nina to protect her since she's an Otome. Nina replied that Mashiro's not her master. Wanting to gain recognition of her father, Nina suggested that they have a temporary contract where Mashiro would be the interim master and give Nina certification to use the Robe. Leaving with no choice, Mashiro asked Nina for her name, mumbled Nina's name then the chant to activate Nina's Robe, which is kissing the ruby ear stud Nina's wearing. After that, Nina went 'Materialize!' and get ready for some ass kicking action!

At the side, Arika's pretty surprised at Nina's transformation lol while Mashiro seems pretty embarrassed cos she kissed Nina's stud or annoyed at Arika's dramatic expression lol which ever. Scene change to Youko's lab, [The school doctor/nurse in Mai Hime] and she notified Natsuki about Nina, Number One Coral's activation of the Robe and also the Slave. After hanging up the phone, Shizuru, as keen as ever commented that Swartz's here. Natsuki said they're at Wind and Nina's fighting in her robe which it's against the treaty ... Shizuru saved the day by merely stating that there's only one person capable of activating which Natsuki after a while said, the princess. Shizuru continued by saying if so, won't it make everything even? Then Natsuki said this gives them an excuse intervene and ended by telling Shizuru that they're going off to kick some Swartz ass.

LoL, Shizuru then requested to borrow a person. [Seems like Shizuru's fighting~ kyaaaahh~ In this particular scene where Shizuru seems to be the advisor of Natsuki giving her leads and pointers on how-to-break-the-rules-legally LOL As expected of Shizuru kai-chou in Mai Hime~] Scene change to Nina fighting the Slave and she's having troubles apparently. Nina's coral robe's probably not strong enough to take down a Slave, the Slave then launched out a blast that Nina couldn't handle and the pressure send Nina, Arika and Mashiro crashing to the building behind. Pissed, Arika grabbed the long metal pole Nina was using to fight the Slave and plunged it into the Slave's forehead lol and it got stucked there making it even madder. The Slave then blasted a fireball towards them, they ran in this abandoned aircraft.

The last one to run in the aircraft, Arika suffered the highest pressure from the blast and was sent rolling in the aircraft with her pendant hanging out. Both Nina and Mashiro stared at the pendant and suddenly it glowed and the power of the pendant activated the aircraft. The aircraft crashing into the Slave then it flew up with the Slave hanging on to it lol. Scene change to Wind Bloom police rushing to the scene ... Mr Afro was saying that a real battle after 50 years of peace. Natsuki, Shizuru and Akane [Woo Akane got handpicked by Shizuru to assist her! She's top in the Pearl class afterall] rushed in a cooool limo and Natsuki dilated Akane the task of saving Nina and the princess while Shizuru take down the Slave. [!!!!!!!] Akane seems pretty uptight and Shizuru [As expected of Shizuru-sama!!! Lol] soothed Akane by assuring her that it'll be alright.

LoL god then Akane was like, 'Hai, Shizuru Onee-sama.' LOL reminds me of Maria-sama ga Miteru ... hahaha. After that Natsuki sent them out, whoa the seats actually got like ... uh ejected out to the sides and both of them flew off like what you see Gundam Seed Eps LoL. Really. With the wings behind them and all, but very cool. At the aircraft, Arika was like 'man, it's not a dream right?' while Nina's staring at Arika's pendant and was saying that it's the power of the GEM but ... while Mashiro's marveling over how small people are from the sky lol. Suddenly Arika's pendant stopped glowing and the aircraft went crashing down. While falling, Mashiro got knocked out lol cos Nina and Arika are crashing against her. WHOA then Shizuru and Akane flew in while Shizuru took out her uh whip slash as seen from Mai Hime and sliced the aircraft into two.

That scene so damn cool and dammmmmmmmmmmn sexy!!! LOL, the way Shizuru moves + Kajiura-sensei's genius background music kyaaaahhh truely intoxicating!!! I almost fainted from pure pleasure~~~ LoL. Ok back lol, when Shizuru sliced open the aircraft, the girls fell out [Free falling!] along with the Slave. Some quick thinking from Nina to hold three of them together. Just then, Arika's pendant glowed again and this time, it gives Arika a near invisible of a Robe and stopped their drop. But as usual, the pendant stopped glowing and they went tumbling down again. Luckily Akane's there to catch them and Nina greeted her with a 'Akane Onee-sama' lol, aaaahhh Marimite flashbackssss! LoL. The Slave landed in the city and Shizuru's there to do some clean up, KYYAAAHHHH!!!! Shizuru's entrance is soooo fucking damn cool!!! i got a GIF of it!

Whee and it's my avatar in Chuang Yi Forum =D The background music and glasses breaking due to Shizuru's landing pressure is soooo freaking cool! God, this must be heaven!!! LoL. Mr Afro and the police of Wind Bloom are lucky witnesses to Shizuru's fight. There, Mr Afro introduced Shizuru properly as Purple Crystal of the Banquet, Meister Shizuru Viola. Shizuru walked into the scene by stating it's clean up time, the Slave roared and launched a fireball at Shizuru. Shizuru calmly used her whip slash weapon again, do the mambo jumbo [SO FREAKKIINNNGGG COOOOOLLL!!!!] and zoomed glided behind the Slave. With the sunset as the background, Shizuru coolly said to the Slave that there's something stuck on its forehead. The Slave turned back, raised its hand to pick it out but the effects of Shizuru's attacks kicked in and its head dropped LOL along with other parts dropped and goes kaboom!

With the Slave's blast as the background, Shizuru's outfit breezed with the effect displaying a kaaaakkkkoooiiii scene!!! Somewhere, the baddie from the Swartz organization went greeny poof lol. Seems like when the Slave got defeated, the user also fade away. [The concept is the same in Mai Hime, when the Hime loses, VIP dies] Scene change to Akane holding Nina, Mashiro and Arika's going 'Sugoi Sugoi' [Sugoi=Wow!] over Meister Shizuru's display. Sergay's watching from afar said that a slave appears, battled by an Otome after 50 years ... there's going to be a hell lot of problems coming later. As Akane and company flew past, Sergay saw them and was like 'Nina?'. Scene change to Mr Afro worried over the fact that how the princess will react when she knows that her castle's on fire from the Slave's blast lol. Scene change to Akane landing them in front of Galderobe while Arika goes 'Sugoi Sugoi' again

When Arika asked what is that, Natsuki came out to answer her question, 'That's the power of an Otome and the place that trains Otome is Galderobe which is here.' After that, Natsuki noticed the pendant on Arika and frowned when Nina called out to her father. Sergay arrived and asked if Nina's alright, Arika rushed forward with her pendant shown to Sergay. Sergay went 'O_O, The Blue Jewel of Heaven?!' Nina ain't pleased that her father noticed Arika's pendant. [I seem jealousy lol] Just then, Arika noticed Shizuru descending from the sky like a goddness with her ear stud sparking, [FREAKING COOL!!! ATASHI NO TENSHI!!!] ran forwards and went 'Kakkoii!!! I wanna be an Otome too!' Seems like Arika's really smitted with Shizuru's coolness! LoL, Welcome to the club Arika!!! LOL. I like the ending more than the opening, gives me a 'go-go-go' feeling lol probably due to too much Shizuru's coolness!!!!

Whoa great starting ep but the fighting scenes are not enough ... Shizuru's scenes were definitely cool but i got this feeling of no kick. However, Shizuru's coolness is there to perk me up LoL. But overall, nice ep to start =), and there u have it! A looonnng summary of Mai Otome Ep1, i'm off to rewatch and rewatch Shizuru scenes again LOL. XP.

Art: 7/10
Story: 7/10 [Not bad, alot of thinking to do =)]

Overall: 7.5/10

Anyways, here's the rank of the Otome thingy;

maybe you have a girlfriend

yoake no tsuki no you ni
tenohira sukuu mizu no you ni
kiete yuku mae ni konna ni suki na koto todoketakute

Before you disappear like a moon at dawn,
like the water I scoop up with my hands,
I want my love to reach you

itsumo mitsumeteru my love to you
kon'ya koso wa kitto

I'm always watching my love to you
Tonight for sure

*2 KIRAKIRAmeku kono omoi wa kaze ni nori
ima ai ni yuku yo
kono negai ga kanau toki wa doko made mo
with you kakete yukeru kara

This sparkling love rides on the wind
& I go to meet you
When my wish is granted,
I can go running to the end of the world with you

kokoro yobiau shunkan ni
futatsu no ai wa hitotsu ni naru darou

The moment our hearts call out to each other,
2 loves probably become one

*1, *2 repeat

kakete yukeru kara

   Full Metal Panic! - The Second Raid Ep11
[Posted @ 10:15 PM]
Argh, i wanted to do up summary for Mai Otome Ep1 as well after i finished FMP - TSR Ep11's ... but got too tired lol, so i think i'll do it later after i watch Godannar and Diamond Dust Drops on Arts Central later. Here's Full Metal Panic! - The Second Raid Ep11 screenshots!

Ep opens with Gates LOL balancing an apple on a knife in his mouth and they're on their way to collect Yulan's body and Gates was saying there's many ways to do with her corpse heh heh heh. LoL. Scene change to Sousuke wandering around the streets and in this shop where this shopkeeper was counting money and planning to evacuating. Sousuke saw a box of alcohol the shopkeeper was lying outside the shop, bended down to get one and wanted to pay but the shopkeeper was like 'i don't care, take la take la, if you don't wanna die you better run, bye' Sousuke was like ... dying might seem not a bad idea afterall. The rest of the team [The two guys] were searching for him and encountered a decomposed body somewhere.

The dead body was wearing this t-shirt with this message 'To the child of Bdakshon's tiger, meet Hamidra at Tsim Sha Tsui.' [What the? lol] Scene changed to TDD HQ, Tessa's reporting to Admiral Borda on the search for Venom, saying that they are almost there, and asked him to wait a while longer. Admiral Borda said that the situation between the two sides [North and South China] are badd ... very bad and could only afford to stall them for probably only 3hrs more. Tessa got darn worried and did her 'Twisting her ponytail against her nose' thingy LOL. [See screenshot 2] Later Melissa reported about the dead body, the message and that the message had been released in varous places.

Lieutenant Commander Kalinin seem know abt it as he decoded the message. 'Bdakshon's tiger' refer to the legendary guerrilla leader of Helmajistan, Majid. Kalinin said he had fought with a few times. The Soviets used to sent assassins to assassinate him but all failed, and one of the assassins is a kid no older than 8 years old. Majid took pity on the kid and adopted him and named him Kashim. Tessa was reminded of the scene back in Full Metal Panic! 1st season where Sousuke pissed with Gaulun cos he kept calling him Kashim and ordered to connect to Sousuke. Melissa answered the call and ... finally confessed that Sousuke's not with them. Scene changed to some streets in Hong Kong ... Sousuke's wandering around there.

Later we see a Kaname lookalike prostitute flirting with some soldiers the street Sousuke's wandering on. [LOL the cantonese is damn weird, only the cursing 'bitch' and 'damn you' are clear to me] LOL! Kaname lookalike prostitute was rejected by the soldiers then she turned to Sousuke staring the scene at the side. LoL, it's weird to see ... 'Kaname' hitting on Sousuke lol in Cantonese hahaha, later she switched to Japanese and got Sousuke to get them a hotel room. [The scene's damn funny LOL, Sousuke took such a long time to consider hahahaha] Scene changed back to TDD HQ where news of Sousuke abandoning his mission reached Kurz and company and they couldn't believe it.

In a rundown hotel room, Kaname lookalike and Sousuke had a heart to heart talk [Sort of LOL until Sousuke said he only knew how to fight lol, Kaname lookalike went LOL cos the Sousuke she knew is a cleaner lol] and while all that, voices of Kaname kept flashing in Sousuke's mind. Later Kaname lookalike pushed him down and got on top of him, while Kaname lookalike was on top, real Kaname's face and voice kept flashing in Sousuke's mind. Sousuke pushed her away probably feeling guilty, left some money and left. Of course Kaname lookalike was pissed lol, threw back Sousuke's bottle of alcohol. Back at TDD HQ again, seems like the time is up and ordered Tessa to deploy all the M9 but no Arbalest.

Tessa tried to get more time but it seem that they can't really wait anymore. [Tessa's afraid of sacrificing innocent and her subordinates' lives cos Venom is highly dangerous] So Tessa had no choice but to obey, call Melissa and company back [Search was called off] and launched all M9s. Scene changes to Sousuke alone in a park, sitting on a bench. Looking at the bottle of alcohol, Sousuke took a sip and lol choked on it then commented how could Kaname lookalike had drank it. [He has never drank alcohol afterall lol] Then he noticed a paper on the dustbin as he was about the throw the bottle of alcohol away ... and he saw the message ... 'To the child of Bdakshon's tiger, meet Hamidra at Tsim Sha Tsui.' -End-

FINALLY! LoL I took from 10am till 8pm to finish this LOL. Along the way i was ... uh distracted from many stuff lol so i was like a typing line per two hours or so? LoL.

Art: 8/10 [I think this is constant lol, the art is really great throughout, thumbs up for Kyoto Animation!]
Story: 7/10 [More of Sousuke angst!]
Characters: 7/10 [Yada Yada ...]
Overall: 7/10

Actually the full name for the anime Godannar is 'God and Spirit Combination Godannar' LOL!!! GOD LOL Hahahahhaahhaha ... i see the kanji also, cos it's in mandarin so it's roughly that meaning lol that was translated above. Hahaha. Really funny, i wonder how i will react after i watched it later ... can't wait lol. If it really sucks as people say ... lol ... manz ... i dunno what to say.

As for Diamond Dust Drops which will replace Scrapped Princess ... the full name's 'Kita e ~Diamond Dust Drops~', it seems to be a romance anime ... god, juz dun gimme those 5 girls like 1 guy and dumb guy can't make up his mind and make out with all 5 girls and chose the out pops 6th girl kinda show LOL. God, i'll smash my TV lol.

I'm pretty crazy tonight, i juz watched this DAMN CRAPPY ANIME i won't say what lol, fucking stupid ending. After it ended i was left with a 'WHAT THE FUCK WHAT THE FUCK x100' kinda feeling. Manz, thinking of it ... i'm still feeling fucked up. Waste my time lol, gimme lame ending sia kaoz. Probably a feeling worse than when i watched Evangelion lol cos at least Eva's art is nice, this crappy anime's art sucked like hell, i was suckered when i see the cover and it looked decent and nice kaoz lol.

Manz, i feel like such a fool ... i'm such a sucker. Argh. LoL. Sigh, i feel so tired .... so restless and cranky. I feel like pissing someone lol. Ah, gotta go watch Tsubasa Chronicle Ep25 and Ep26 [END]~ then i'll go piss my bros off by telling them the winner of The Apprentice Season 3 LOL!!!!!! [We live in Singapore ... yeah yeah we're slow and i know Season 4's out and i think 4-5 people were already fired.]
