Wow, I haven’t watched this series in over a month, but I’m gonna try my darnest to finish the series before I start any Spring Season ones. In any case, the wedding of Addie and Honami was what greeted me upon my return. Kissing Itsuki all those weeks ago made her go lesbo xD But really, I didn’t get what Itsuki was so bothered about. At first I thought it was because he was jealous or disappointed that he wasn’t asked to marry Addie, but as the episode went on I found he was truly really adamently against their marriage, and I don’t understand why. Is it because marriage is a special occasion to him, whether it’s “just as mages” or not? Or is it because he knew it wasn’t something either of them wanted? Maybe both? It’ll forever remain a mystery to me.

Holy f*ck. That’s all I can say without my mind imploding on me. That’s one of the best endings I’ve seen in Gundam history. Gundam 00 is truly stepping up to be one of the best Gundam series ever made. Things I knew would happen happened (Livonze is a total traitor!!!), and the four year time skip just destroyed me– in a good way. I think. The battle between Alejandro and Sestuna was superb, and for a second I thought this was truly the end of the series, but my knowledge of me knowing a Gundam series go 52 episodes, and the final message of “Mission Incomplete” was a indicator that this thing is far from over. I don’t know where to begin without missing anything, so I’ll try and start my thoughts from the beginning of this epic episode.

It’s always the quiet ones, ne? I knew Kanaru was really into Shadow Pulling, but who ever knew it was that deep? And I mean that literally as well, since that girl was feeling some things real deep. It really bothered me that she kept on lying to her friends to join up with her groupies and do some Pulling, but I guess it’s hard for someone to go cold turkey on a ‘drug’ like that. And I thought Megumi just released her Persona once when she was little, but it seems she has done it a little more recently as well, which surprises me.
Forcing one’s Persona out through Shadow Pulling doesn’t help one’s Persona, though. I wonder what took over and possessed Kanaru during a few scenes in Episode 11– and what the hell came out when she freaked at th end of the episode. I also wonder why the number of Persona users have dropped since “Inui’s time”. Is this why there are organizations to collect the most powerful left? Shin x Kanaru went up and down. I thought the slap was pure WIN, and he was there for her when she was relapsing. Kanaru’s attitude really bothered me this episode, though, so I don’t support them any more than I did before.
