Let's go!

Well, after one week of getting used to my new environment here at Brighton (delicious uni proxy:80, 6 MByte/s DDLs and a Love Plus-similar situation which I swiftly explained on my twitter), I think it is finally time to start clearing the summer backlog!

Wa. Ha. Ha~

I literally choked on my iced tea when she suddenly cried out...

NYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!

Well, it’s that time again, something between the middle and the end of the season, the last quarter… there comes my usually belated Catching up to series. Well, this time I have to admit I was pretty much distracted, so perhaps I have a more viable excuse this time… Ahem. Let’s proceed to the current batch of lesbian mahjong anime episodes.

(Yes, only up to episode 20, because 21 seems stuck in the intertubes…)

...I was playing Mahjong underwater. I can't breathe!

…I was playing Mahjong underwater. I can’t breathe!

As expected, Koromo showed off her Mahjong powers in this episodes, kicking royal butt around the table.

Eyessu lovessu youssu!

Eyessu lovessu youssu!

Well, as the title says, this episode was relatively quiet. Touka gets her hind kicked and Momo’s stealth is ineffective against Nodocchi’s radar, bottom line: our girls are in the lead before the fifth and last game; the storm.

The latter part of this episode followed standard suspense building procedures. Saki’s incredible gameplay is showcased right off the bat, all the teams cower in fear before her, and it looks like she’s going to net an easy win off this match, even though Yumi-chin prevented that rinshan kaihou hat trick. But of course, we all know that there is someone who hasn’t acted once in this match yet, and who will definitely be depicted as an evil monster beyond recognition, akin to Umineko’s Maria. And that’s something to look forward to, because apparently Kodomo KoromoA wolf in sheep’s clothing? A demon in a doll? A normal hikikomori? is that good at Mahjong. (But will definitely get her ass stomped in the end nevertheless.)
By the way, she’s 16 years old? One year older and even more underdeveloped than Taco-cchi (who is already flat as a taco pancakeI’d pay to see her being raped by tentacles.)? Oh, come on. This is getting ridiculous.

Oh and there was a new OP and ED in this episode, although both are much inferior to the old ones. The OP features off-tune singing from beginning til end, and the ED song is utterly disappointing: it lost all originality the first one had and sounds pretty bad.

Keeping it short because ep 16 is already underway, but relatively slow. Will watch it after my obligatory beauty sleep.

My last post seems to have pleased Yuuki.

And yes, I am liking this show a lot! So many surprises in this long spring season.

I admit, I started watching this series with a mind to badmouth its flashy fanservice and apparently second-rate story, but, gyakuten ! I’m loving this show! …wut?You’re kidding me, right? Read on.
