Diary of a tard - Week 2, August 2010

Monday, August 9

Starting the week with something oldskool: GetBackers.

Nurarihyon no Mago episode 2: Zen came for a visit, to convince Rikuo to inherit the Nura clan. Rikuo of course refused. On his way back, the disappointed Zen was attacked by his snake butler, Hebidayu. Conveniently this happened at dusk so the youkai Rikuo took care of the betrayer and agreed to become the third.

delicious!

I'm picking up episodes at random. Next up is Giant Killing episode 9. It was pretty much about the fans this time around. They are pretty much pissed off because the team has been losing for five time straight. They want Tatsumi but Gotou took his place so that we the audience know that Tatsumi is not alone in this battle. Sweet but if he lets Tatsumi to handle them, he would have put them back in their place in no time at all. Then they are up against Nagoya team. They need to win this. The side show of the three Brazilian players doing tricks with the ball was awesome.

Episode 2 of GetBackers: I forgot to mention on my first impression about the Honky Tonk. WTF is up with that name? If I happened to walk by that shop, I would think that it is either a shop that sells sex stuff or a gay/whore bar. Also, when did Natsumi start working at the bar? Anyway this episode they have to retrieve a daughter of a homeless man from the yakuza. Little that the old man knows that his daughter don't want to leave. It has a happy ending though, as usual.

GetBackers episode 3: Met with Dr. Jackal, Lady Poison and Mr. No Break as they delivered the goods. Of course someone else hired the GetBackers to get the goods. The tricks with the beetle was pretty funny but yeah ultimately they phailed to retrieve it. Of course they eventually succeeded in episode 4. I guess these few episodes are just introduction to the other characters and what they have to do with Ban and Ginji's past.

Thank goodness the Chessire Cat is alright in chapter 7 of Are You Alice? So the monster blob thingy is actually known as the duke. Alice let himself be taken by the blob, defying the Mad Hatter's order to run and save himself. In chapter 8, he met the real Alice (the one that we are more familiar with, that is) who wants her name back. Uh'oh... so what did Alice do? He killed the female Alice as instructed by the Queen of Hearts. After that the White Rabbit appeared and took Alice out from the blob and claimed that he's not the real Alice. WTF? I'm officially confused especially when it seems like the White Rabbit is serving the real Alice. Argh... What the hell?

First day of Ramadhan for muslims. EID in a month!

Bleach episode 283 is pretty good in terms that I have a better understanding of Shunsui's power.

Claymore chapter 106: Miria is back! Only for her to disappear from Rabona again after she gave quite a blow to her other claymore comrade, whose name escaped me. Miriadecided to go east and destroy the organization while it is weak. She doesn't want to endanger her comrade thus the intentional slash. But she has no qualm injuring the others from the organization though. It's not like she didn't warn them but they did not heed her words. She has reached the organization btw is determined, more than ever, to fucking destroy it. But of course for her to succeed she has to face a dangerous opponents in the form of numberless small twins. One of them just fucking awakened and switched their body like magic ffs! What's more they are not the trump card. Jeebus, I'm scared of losing Miria. She's awesome. She makes Claymore interesting again.

Holy shit. Looks like Kanda has really lost it. He is really pissed off at the moment in chapter 197 of D.Gray Man. If he keeps losing control of himself, he's going to die soon. He even stabbed Allen. He and Alma is killing each other mercilessly. It truly seems like this might be the end for Kanda. Just as Alma was about to give him the finishing blow, his body itself has comes to an end. His regenerative power is no longer usable. How convenient but I am grateful. I don't want Kanda to die. Remember the lotus and the symbol on Kanda's chest? Well, I dunno why I was worried because that thing works perfectly fine for Kanda's regenerative power. He is so determined to kill Alma that Allen words of reason only fall on deaf ears. Somehow Kanda got this idea that Allen is the caused of all these because he's a Noah and yet works for the Order. Kanda power-up was pretty cool and Allen's body changed and looks like a Noah. And suddenly it's Kanda versus Allen and Alma is helping Kanda out? LOLWTFWUT?!
