Battle Spirits Heroes 36

May 26th, 2012 (06:37 pm)

Pretty meh episode, like I expected, and not nearly enough cute moments.
-The highlight was Hajime and Manabu continuing their argument from episodes ago over who gets to battle Dragon Eye. Of course, neither of them got to this time, anyway.
-Wow, that's one big card.
-Dragon Eye is pretty cute, if I can ignore her ridiculously shrill in-battle screaming. I don't mind her being around again. Also, I figured she'd be in the world tournament.
-As far as I know, we don't have any vikings here in America. That's just bizarre.
-Next time, Sunset visits Kimari house, to wrap up the world tour. Looks a lot more interesting than this week's episode.

Battle Spirits Heroes 35

May 19th, 2012 (06:40 pm)

Gotta say, that was one of the most genuinely entertaining episodes this season. I wish there were more like this.

-Hajime's parents really should be in more regularly. Their love is so hilarious. And this eyecatch is too epic.
-Taiten Kusunoki <3! I miss Number Nine and his epic suits.
-Seven is finally back! And Tameru! And ZOMG Tameru x Bomber? Yes please. Just add in Seven and make it a mascot OT3.
-The Statue of Kimari > The Statue of Liberty. They should really build it.
-So, if you're in America now, where's Elliott? And why not have the cast go to Jamba Juice? There's tons of them in New York.
-Sunset was too adorable this ep. Apparently, he's going to be leaving soon. :(
-What the heck was with Mahiru's matrix-esque summon performance? That's got to be among the most random.
-Next time, Dragon Eye vs. a pirate? Well, I guess they're back to mindlessness already.

Also, I think Saint Seiya Omega is actually getting interesting, of which I'm glad. There's only so much training and fighting tournament stuff I can stomach (which is probably one reason the original bored me senseless). I'm curious about the fake Athena girl, or whatever she's supposed to be. She's very cute.

Battle Spirits Heroes 34

May 12th, 2012 (06:35 pm)

For some reason, my arm is incredibly sore. Moving on:

-The last new character from the OP is Abra Kadabra Abura Katabura  (CV: Hunter Steele XDD). He's super cute, though.
-Hajime and Katabura's eating battle was really... unique. Yeah.
-Talking bird, who's name I couldn't catch, is essentially a blue Cap.
-Kimari's flirting seems like it'll never work. Well, she's very cute, but I don't think she's the kind of girl who has a lot of sex appeal or whatever she thinks she has. Tameru might think differently.
-Has this show ever had a nexus yet? I'm surprised they gave Hajime one now.
-Next time, Seven and Tameru finally appear again. And Hajime's father battles? Well, that should be neat.

Battle Spirits Heroes 33

May 5th, 2012 (06:49 pm)

Firstly, it's the Kentucky Derby day. My horse didn't win, but I don't know who came in second/third yet. Probably not mine.

Episode. Kinda boring, but anyway:
-Best. Wall-painting. Ever.
-Holy crud... a triple symbol card?! That's murderous. Brave it and it can have 4.
-I kinda expected Tegamaru would get the card, but it's disappointing.
-Did Amade Us hijack this episode? Oh gosh, Dr. Sunset is a terrible singer. That, or it's just because rap is awful no matter what. I know the seiyuu is actually decent at singing though, so it's probably just Sunset.
-Finally, I get to see the new yellow effect in action. Evil light? Pretty interesting.
-Next week, new character from the OP shows up.

It just dawned on me. If I wanted to, I could cosplay moe-version Homura so easily. I already own red-frame prescription glasses, and people thought they were weird. Now they're suddenly a cosplay accessory? XD

Now, if they start selling prescription Kamina sunglasses, I might be interested. Or do they?

Battle Spirits Heroes 32/OP 2

April 28th, 2012 (06:48 pm)

OP 2 is finally out, and this is the first time a Battle Spirits anime ever got a whole new OP. (Gekiha Dan's just added incest modified the animation a bit.) I really like it. Too bad I probably won't be able to watch it again until I get the raw, which usually takes a couple of days. Maybe someone will put it on nicovideo. Hopefully. -_-;
-Seven promoted to OP! Also, Announcer Inoue, Sunset, Bomber, Tameru, Ser-jii, Antony, Renard, and Dragon Eye. Pretty sure there was also one character yet to be introduced. Too bad I couldn't find a cap of him. And Tameru/Kimari! :D
-I'm kind of expecting Dragon Eye/Nora Nyao to be a participant in the world tournament, if she's going to be a regular in this part of the show. I guess the other new character is also one.

Episode now:
-I didn't realize how much I missed Arata lately until this ep. He was funny, in a kinda pathetic way.
-As I thought, Arata dominated in the battle. Gotta show off the power of his new card I guess, another LV4 spirit.
-Kimari x Arata?! I like how this show has so much Kimari/everyone ship tease. But Arata fails to notice her, so this won't go anywhere.
-I pretty much expected Dr. Sunset's hate for ice cream to have something to do with Hajime's parents. Oh gosh, they're so sickeningly adorable. I can totally get why it kills him.
-Next time, Tegamaru vs. some freakish looking dude. Guest seiyuu appearing in next weeks ep include Namii and Meganeko's grandfather. Interesting.

Battle Spirits Heroes 31

April 21st, 2012 (06:45 pm)

And... drumroll please... this episode was surprisingly not a troll fest. That or it was a reverse troll, because no one seriously seemed to believe that Chihiro would turn out to be a girl after all. Truly fascinating.
-Okay, the whole Chihiro thing was interesting, but I completely admit I was too busy squeeing over the fact that Michiko Neya (Masako, Guraguri, Mira, Gilfam) has now been in every Battle Spirits anime. This time as Chihiro's mother.
-Poor Bomber couldn't beat Kobushi. Gah, why is he so cute? If it isn't obvious, I adore the three mascots in anime version. (Seven  <3! Bomber <3! Tameru <3!)
-I was actually thinking that Announcer Inoue has nearly become a co-narrator. It was funny to see Narrator himself actually bring it up.
-I saved way too many pictures this episode. I swear I love long hair so much, so I had to restrain myself of grabbing every picture of long-hair Chihiro.
-I miss Tameru. I wonder when he'll show up again, though he was shown for a second in this episode.
-Next time Kimari has no hope of winning against Arata, but lots of Kimari screentime is always welcomed.

Battle Spirits Heroes 30

April 14th, 2012 (06:40 pm)

Not bad, though I have a feeling next week's episode is going to be a lot more interesting.
-Daisuke Kishio <3!
-I pretty much expected Hajime to lose, so he can win against Renard (Leonard?) in the tournament. Makes it more dramatic and less repetitive that way.
-Go Bomber! Someone has to keep Sunset in line. Also, I totally love that those two are recurring characters. They're a lot of fun.
-Kimari cosplay session XD
-The preview has me very skeptical. I know the "Chihiro is really a girl" thing has been going on forever, and indeed, a seiyuu for this new similar-looking female character isn't casted for the next episode, but it could still just be a different character altogether as part of an epic troll by Sunrise. But if Chihiro really does turn out to be a girl, I wouldn't mind though his in-universe fangirls might. This show is severely gender-unbalanced. Plus, I still say his voice is way too girly. Also, from the extended preview, Bomber vs. Kobushi fist fight. XDD

I finally watched Usagi Drop, because it was on my to-do list since it came out. Very, very interesting. From what I've heard about the ending, I kinda have to read the manga and see for myself how that happens.

I haven't watched anything from the new season yet. Some of it looks remotely interesting though, but I kinda want to wait until more episodes are out so I can marathon. I'm definitely curious about Eureka Seven Ao. Though, my biggest issue with the original (which I fairly-recently finished) was how brutally slow paced it was. I had to watch it in doses. If this is going to be anything similar, then it might be best off watched once a week rather than marathoning.

Battle Spirits Heroes 29

April 7th, 2012 (06:41 pm)

Of course, Solon the collector was the villain all along, not Meganeko Dragon Eye. Should've guessed, but didn't. Maybe because Solon and Metalcas were so useless in Brave that they couldn't count as viable threats. But anyway, different show we're talking about now.
-Interestingly, Manabu didn't get a new eyecatch. The new character got one, though, so I guess that means she'll be recurring, or at least show up again in the future.
-Hajime trying to do Manabu's cheer dance thing all on his own was amusing.
-So this illusion card deal is interesting. Basically, a free ticket to the world tournament.
-Next time, Daisuke Kishio (Seven's first seiyuu) returns to Battle Spirits, but in a new role. And... that's supposed to be a guy he's playing?

Tomorrow's Easter, meaning the tragic end to Cadbury Creme Egg season. While I love the original, the orange are my favorite, and I couldn't find any this year at all. :(
