Oh god, I don’t know what to laugh more about– the constipated look Yamato had, the cheesy music at the height of Naruto’s little speech, or the extra after the episode. To be fair, I actually really liked Naruto’s speech, and I LOL’ed so hard at the scene with Naruto sitting on the toilet in the extra, with that angel chorus in the background xDDDD There’s no saving that look, though– that’s just plain bad art.
I can also go on and on about the pointless flashbacks, and there honestly has to be a rule about using a particular flashback every other freaking week, or the way they slowed things down (Kabuto took forever to get there, ne?), but I do that every week. Oh, damn, I did it again here. Ah, well. Me saying it constantly is as old as them doing it every week. The Tsubasa OVAs go through an entire volume in a single episode for crying out loud.

気持ち嫌気。I’m just so disgusted. In a good way…tabun. It’s just, everything is so wrong. I don’t know what I saw in Liu Mei, but that girl has some issues. I mean, destroy the planet if it refuses to change so you can start anew? Lagna being the person behind the GN Drive giveaway and being the person behind the Trinity siblings? Which one is it? You can’t play with both sides like the entire world is your fucking sandbox. I’d get into Ali, but we’ve known for a while that he’s a warloving freak. We learned he’s as obsessed with Sestuna as he is with fighting, though, with being so proud that he had taken Sestuna and molded him to the oh-so-normal emotionless child killing machine he is today.

Was it just me or was it obvious that Mayuri was that same girl who attacked Shin before? Of course, I guess that’s the beauty of being the audience and not the character (I swear there was a drama term for it that I cannot recall), or I’m not in the mindset that there are a million green-haired people in this world. I was beginning to think I was wrong when nothing really hinted at it for the majority of the episode, but the final scene confirmed they were one in the same. Who is it that she, or their group, is looking for? Will they start being interested in Jun, or will Mayuri protect him? I’m hoping someone will start recoginizing Jun’s skills, for he’s certainly got more of a grasp on it than Shin does, and the sixth sense skills are an even better extra. Maybe it’s that raw talent they want from Shin, so they can mold it for their own.
