Sakurasou no Pet na Kanojo - ep04

Then continuing from last time, it seems that Sorata has thrown himself into following through with leaving Sakura dorm. That in the time that has past he managed to find owners for most of the cats except two. However in being so caught up in his own affairs he has forgotten what day it was, this leads to an awkward moment when he is questioning why she is wearing a kimono. This is when Jin reminds him that it is Tanabata, that he should of compliment her in someway first. Later once everyone has put there wish on the tree, Shiina receives a call from her editor telling her that she didn't win. Sorata tries to be supportive but in the end just makes a bad situation worse. This cause him to spend some time alone, but Jin follows him telling that it is always the hardest on the people closest to them. This allows for Sorata to realize the truth about Jin. That in someway they are kindred spirit because the same feeling he has for Shiina, Jin has felt that Misaka is in just as unreachable place.

However this leads Sorata into question his reason for leaving Sakura dorms, this results in him losing his earlier enthusiasm about finding owners for the cats. This leads to Aoyama become aware of that something is bothering him. Although this self contemplation is cut short when Shiina's editor Ayano drops in on them and steals Sorata away. They end up stopping at a restaurant to talk, and while Ayano has a fest of sweets she has Sorata read Shiina's manga. That the reason she didn't win was simply because the story came to an abrupt stop. Although it was interesting how she base everything on what has happened between the two of them but just switched their roles. This allows for him to realize something about himself that he was simply just running away from his problems.

This leads him rushing back to school and handing in his career survey into Chihiro. Then back to Sakurasou to confess his true feelings to Shiina. That after seeing her try so hard it allowed for him the realize something about himself that he was always afraid to fail. That he always want to write video games but he was unwilling to face the question of what he would do if he fail. However after seeing Shiina try so hard he want to be a bit more like her to go forward without caring about what happens afterwords. Although his great confession is a big let down for him since it appears that she was asleep through the whole things. Things get more complicate when Jin and Misaki make their appearance announcing that they hear the whole thing, but things end with on last thing. Sorata announcing he is here to stay and with his return Shiina forcing him to use her first name because it is unfair that he is on a first name bases with everyone else but her. The question reminds what will this change bring.

Little Busters - ep04

Things start off with an introduction of another new character name Kudo, but the episode isn't center on the new character like the previous two episodes. In the end beyond getting a little bit about her character there is no really great involvement with her at this moment. Thing then progress toward Riki meeting up with Rin, where it seems that she was waiting for another message from one of her cats. However she finds the someone put a bandage on one of them and wants Riki help to find the person that did so that she can thank them.

Riki finds a clue towards this end after class, when Haruka is having another fight with Masato when he notice her finger. The band-aid that was on her figure was the same one that was on the cat earlier. Although it turns out that it was given to her by Komari, and after Kurugaya tells him that she was caring a bag of snack off somewhere. This give Riki a good idea where she would be headed. Once up on the roof he finds her asleep where he though she would be. Once she wakes up she goes into telling him about a dream she always has about her brother reading her a book, but the strange thing is that she is an only child. Thing end with him giving Komari Rin's gift for thank her cats, and he agree to bring Rin with him next time.

Then next day she brings the book with her that she was talking about yesterday with Riki. Then after showing the book to Riki and Rin, Komari question the fact on why she can't meet the person she remembers in her dream. Since the book exists, it seem to reason the the dream itself should be based on reality. That the brother she dreams should be real too. Then for some reason this leads her to go off topic and bring up visiting a retirement home. This ends with Riki and Rin agreeing to go along with her since they are friends now.

However the next day when they are going to go to the retirement home thing quickly spiraling out of control leading to everyone else of the Little Busters coming along for the ride. Where once there everyone splits up to help out, so by brightening up the residents day others by cleaning various rooms. This lead to an interesting development with Riki where he runs into a grumpy old man that wants nothing to do with anyone. However he is unsuccessful in driving Riki away, and lets him do what he wants. After he leaves Komari is surprised to see him exiting that room, and when she follow Riki advice she tries to interact with the old man. Although it ends poorly, resulting in her runaway. Then when Riki confronts him about what he did, this when he discover that the old man is the writer of Komari's book and is probably the brother that she remembers in her dream but if that is true why is he so old.

K - ep04

The main focus this time around is on Shiro proving his innocents to Kurou, although Kurou isn't pleased with how Shiro is prioritizing school over clearing his name. Many times we see that Kurou believes that this is merely another stalling tactic like before with the story about his sister. That his actions seems to lack sincerity, this leads to Kurou becoming gradually more impatient. Once his lesson are done for the day, and they are going into further preparation for the school festival. Kurou sees this as another delay, as they are changing into traditional clothing, then just as Kurou is about to kill him Kukiri walks in. This ends up starting the big search for Shiro's alibi.

It seems since the crime took place on December 7^th at 11:45 P.M. If Shiro can prove that he was her on campus at the time then he is innocent. He is very confident he will be able to because a lot of things were going on during that time, that someone could prove that he was there. The first one approach about this is Kukiri because he was there when she was being confess by Mishina. Although she doesn't remember seeing him there, but she had other things on her mind at the time. That if is is so important why doesn't he go to the student council because there were various things going on at the time that they had to resolve. However this doesn't improve Shiro situation either, they suggest they he go to the newspaper club. That if he was there it is very unlikely that they would not catch in one of there picture. Although this makes it worse to a degree because he unable to find a single picture where he appears, that instead of proving his innocent it proves his guilt.

Then when Kukiri appears with so box to take to teachers lunge, this distracts Kurou but it also give Shiro an idea. That they would have records on who was there on campus on who wasn't because you can't get in without your PDA. This proves that he was on campus, but as they are going to get something to drink. Kukiri appears again when Shiro doesn't have enough spare change to get anything out of the vending machine, this is when she brings up the fact that he is always forgetting to bring it with him. That he is known for leaving campus without it even-though he should be able to leave with using his PDA. This invalidates his only alibi because his PDA could have been on campus while he was else where, essential allowing him to be in two place at the same time. Although she also saves him by showing them a photo date at thirty minutes past midnight, within an hour of the crime. Proving his innocents, and saving him from Kurou.

Then when we think everything is alright, it turns out to be just the calm before the storm. When Shiro finds a dead body in his closet, and starts to question if he really did do it. What ironic timing since he just cleared his name, what makes things worse is that it appears that the Red and Blue clans have closed in on his position. There is also the fact that if Kurou trust will be destroyed if he finds the body. That next episode things posses the potential to turn into a battle royal over who gets to kill him. Everything is starting to look vary convincing that he did do it, but if he didn't that also means that the person that is trying to frame him must be vary close to him. In any case nest episode looks to be explosive with the red clan already on his doorstep.

Zetsuen no Tempest - ep04

Things start out with them retrieving more talismans that were hidden in a temple by Hakaze. Then just as Yoshino is complaining about how she is going to get cursed by hiding them in such a place. The first symptoms of another fruit being release is beginning to show, this leads to Yoshino rushing off and trying to save as many people as possible. However he is fairly unsuccessful, especial when it is related to a pair of kids that reminds him of Mahiro and himself. In seeing that there is much more to be done, they entire someone's home who has probably die from the release of the fruit. Although Yoshino is a bit apprehensive about doing this, Mahiro carries on without a care in the world.

Once inside Mahiro goes in to take a bath, while Yoshino goes about preparing dinner. While this is happening Hakaze goes about investigating their past, this leads to Yoshino telling her about their past together and how they became friends. It seems that in the beginning they avoid each other, or it was more like Mahiro was keeping everyone at a distance. That Yoshino felt that it would be best not to get involved with him. That for a time this was true, where Mahiro was alone and got to do what ever he want to because of his influential father. However this all change when Mahiro got in injured by a thief that was running away from the cops. This leads to the teacher looking for volunteers to go visit Mahiro in the hospital, but since no-one volunteered the person on duty today got elected to go. Unfortunately for Yoshino it just so happen to be him.

When at the hospital, Mahiro is displeased that he has visitor. However he feels that he can use the situation to his advantage once he get ride of the teacher. He tells Yoshino that he has a favor to ask him, while Yoshino is initially uncooperative ultimately he is force to give in when the teacher returns and Mahiro is acting all buddy-buddy with him. The favor that Mahiro ask was to have Yoshino investigate the accident because he doesn't believe that it was simply a mater of circumstance. That the reason he is asking him is because no adult will believe him. Although after a bit of digging it seems that Yoshino is able to validate Mahiro's bad feeling that the thief was trying to kill him. It seems that recently his drive was fired and was friends with the thief, that getting this guy to accidental kill Mahiro was to perfect way to get back at his boss for firing him. This was suppose to end their involvement with one another, however the school felt that because of what happen that Yoshino would be the best person to keep Mahiro under control. That they have been stuck with each other ever since then.

Then the next day Mahiro gets up early for a walk, and Hakaze use this to get his side of the story. Mahiro quick gloss over everything that Yoshino already said not knowing that Hakaze already had this conversation with Yoshino. However he goes it one fact that Yoshino never went into, was after he return to school they were to read out their essays. It turns out that Yoshino's essays was about his accident but he change the reason behind him getting injured by trying to save a puppy. Which change people opinions about him, that it was just Yoshino's way of getting back at him. That in truth was the first time Mahiro was able to see his true character that despite his innocent appearance he is really quite vicious. That because they were force together they could go a lot further then they could alone.  

Sakurasou no Pet na Kanojo - ep03

It seems that Sorata can't get over the truth about Shiina. In the beginning he through that although Shiina is a bit strange, she is here because she can't deal with life on her own. However when he finds out how much of a genius, the belief that found someone in a similar situation to himself is no-longer true. Being surround by all these genius it makes him feel out place, that he really never belong her. Later when he talks to Jin about his problems, jin ask him if the his real intent is to leave. That he hasn't gone out look for people to take in the cat for awhile, does he really intent to leave at all. If the only thing that is holding him back is the cats and Shiina, then he will take care of them for him. The truth is that Jin doesn't want Sorata putting the blame for his own problems off on others.

This leads to him the next day distancing himself from Shiina, and throwing himself back into the search for people to take in the cats. Although later when Aoyama comes up to him informing him that someone is willing to take in the cats, his joy quickly turns to horror when it turns out to be Shiina. This he just can't accept because that wouldn't change anything, even worse he feels that he would be give the cats a death sentence by allowing Shiina to take care them. Even more so he feels that Shiina herself needs an owner. However it creates a bit of misunderstanding with Aoyama, and he has to explain how she needs someone to look after her. This leads to Shiina telling Sorata that there is somewhere that she would like to go, but he rejects her and tells her to ask Jin instead.

The Choice of having her ask Jin, probably wasn't the best decision. The next day things start out a bit crazy with Misaki rushing into Sorata's room breaking his door in the process. This leads to her explaining that Jin has taken Shiina out on a date, but this date entails going to a love Hotel. Then with this revaluation it seems that they will need to go out and protect Shiina from the womanizing Jin. This cause Sorata to rush to get ready, leaving Chihiro alone in the kitchen saying how they are going to be having red-rice. This dish usually only part-taken in celebration like when a woman has her first period, she is stating this in a way that make seems that she isn't involved at all even though it's about her own niece losing her virginity.

After Misaki and Sorata follow Jin for awhile, it seems that although Sorata main concern is proctecting Shiina. It turns out this wasn't the sole reason for Misaki because she didn't want Jin to become romanticly involved with Shiina. It turns at that Misaki is in love with Jin, and she want to prevent anything from happening between the two of them. Also it seems to a degree that Sorata is in love with Shiina but he himself hasn't releazed it. This eventually leads to him breaking them up as they are about to entire the love hotel. However afterwords he reflects on his actions, it turns out that Shiina only want to come here to do some research for her manga. Although this makes Sorata feel bad, it also makes it clear to him that he doesn't belong at Sakura dorms and maybe he never did to begin with. This also means to an extent he can feel safe in knowing that Shiina with be alright with Jin. One question remains how does Shiina feel about Sorata leaving.

Little Busters - ep03

Things start off with the introduction of two new characters, Haruka and Kurugaya. Although Haruka is the first introduced she isn't the main focus of the episode. However we do get a bit of incite into her character. It appears that everyday she come to visit Riki in his class with the intentions to purposefully make herself late for her own class, but through this interaction it leads to an indirect introduction of Kurugaya. That she is a genius of such a high caliber that she is cable of acing her test without ever having to come to class.

Later during the day when he is on a break between class, he goes to buy himself something from a vending machine. However this action leads to him encountering Kurugaya, who has invite him to sit down with her to have a drink. This makes Riki a bit uncomfortable look at the type furniture that she is ask him to sit down in. Although he eventually gives in and as he sit down the chairs falls apart right from underneath him. However it seems that this was a trap set by Kurugaya just because she felt he would be someone fun to play with. This leads to them have a short conversation, it clear that she is lost in her life because nothing really bring herself any sense of joy. The part ways with her final prank, with her making Riki late for class.

Then once again as Masato is starting another fight with Kengo that they do every episode, but this time is a little different when Kurugaya intrudes by attacking Masato from behind. Once again Kyousuke carries through with his strange rule of fighting using random object, this leads to Kengo leaving. However as he is going he gives Masato a warning not to underestimate Kurugaya. This warning falls on deaf ears, as Masato gets soundly beaten by Kurugaya. Even-though she wins, she technically loss because she won by a method other than what was approved. This resolute in Masato winning by losing, this drives Masato up the wall. Then as Kurugaya is leaving Kyousuke demands that Riki get her to join.

However it seems that Kyousuke's demand was pointless because, she wants to join on her own. Later when they are practicing she comes up declaring how she can't stands how much fun they are having, and demands that they allow for her to join. That this would be the prefect way to kill so time. Since there really isn't any reason to reject her request, Kurugaya becomes one of them with very little effort.

K - ep03

Things start out with clearing up what happen at the begging of the first episode. There wasn't an epic fight Mikoto surrender to Munakata. Although it seems that there was actual meaning behind this action. It seems that Mikoto was reaching his limits as a king, it appears that once this occurs their sword that they summon starts falling apart until it falls to earth. Then to prevent this he willing got himself arrested. It seems that he wanted to position himself somewhere so he would no-longer have to use his powers but if that is true where didn't he just give up his king-ship like Munakata suggest to him while he was in prison.

While this is going go, it seems that the blue clan is taking a different route in there investigation. First with media manipulation they are convincing the mass that the video the Red clan release is nothing more than a prank. This means that the blue clans has indirectly helped Shiro. Also it seems that instead of hunting him down personally, they are following the paper trail. First by identifying the gun and with that the group the person would associated with. It seems that their investigation is taking them away from Shiro and towards the people that framed him. Which it seems that they are the mostly likely people that will help prove his innocents but will the listen to him is the question.

This brings us all the way back to the crisis that the his currently facing with the fact that Kurou wants him dead. This gives us more information about what is going on. That things in the world are driven forward by the actions of the seven kings. That each king is represented by a color, and this color defines there nature. Then with the king he creates clansman by sharing his power with others. What is a problems is the fact is that the Red clan believe that he kill one of their own, and since this clan is driven by violence there is little like hood that they will listen to him. Although the reason why Kurou wants him dead is because the previous king gave him order to kill his successor if he proves to be evil. In the end Shiro wins over Kurou because there is no real prove since the video could have been faked that Kurou should wait and see if he really is evil.

Things end with a lot of things cleared up, there is also the fact that there are still the mystery of Neko. That Kurou calls her a strain someone that has obtained magical powers themselves, that they are neither a king or received them from a king. Also there is the suspicious scene with some that looks a lot like Neko, dreaming about Shiro. That the person she is dancing with is not pleased about this, it is like that he is the one that framed Shiro. That he goal in doing so is the get the Red clan to work as assassin for him without them even releasing this. It appears that Neko might be Shiro greatest lead in trying to clear his name.

Zetsuen no Tempest - ep03

Finally they are concluding the introduction with the resolution between Mahiro and Natsumura. It seems that the spear-man is to difficult of an opponent to deal with so Mahiro runs away in hopes that Hakaze will give him some incite into how to beat him. However all she does is complain about how he shouldn't be fighting him, that there is little chance that he can beat him with him lacking the ability to use magic freely. This is when Yoshino shows up saying that his girlfriend would hate him if he abandon his friend in need. When Yoshino accidental knocks over his bag, this cause so trouble because it tells Natsumura where they are. Mahiro act quickly to get them somewhere safe at least for a time.

When it is apparent that Natsumura has no intentions on giving themselves time to regroup, Mahiro decides that he will act as a decoy so that Hakaze will be able to give Yoshino a deeper understanding of magic. Then this leads to Mahiro rushing back into battle which Hakaze isn't pleased with, but she start to give Mahiro an explanation. That the magic that they use is to protect never to actual cause harm, the reason that Natsumura is so strong is because of the way he combines the magic that the destruction he causes is create not by the magic it self but the way he uses it. That the talismans that they are using is an advance technique but how the magic is create in the first place is by sacrificing things that humans have made to the tree of beginning. This means that in a city surround by technology, it means that it is hopeless to fight a real mage in a city.

Now that Yoshino understand how the magic works, when he thinks about it everything seems a little strange. Why does a tree need with human technology, and why to people get turn into metallic statues. There seems to be some sort of connection, between human society and this tree. However it seems to suggest that there might be a deeper meaning behind Samons goal that what we have seen so far. However during this lesson with Hakaze Mahiro has gotten quite far away, that Yoshino has lost sight of where Mahiro has gone.

In his search for Mahiro he see so helicopters blow up a bridge, and releazies this is what Yamamoto was talking about. That they need to get out of there quickly, this is when he finds Mahiro's phone. This causes him to come up with a plan that by using healing magic he can track Mahiro down, when his blood tries to return to his body. Then once he finds him they can escape across the last bridge and use the missiles that are going to destroy the bridge against Natsumura, so that he can no-longer pursue them. Then with this the introduction is concluded, and the beginning there journey together. However it seems that there is even more going on than what seems to be because it appears that Aika was kill by mage, and it was done before Hakaze was sealed away. Which means that Aika's death is in someway connected with the current events.

Sakurasou no Pet na Kanojo - ep02

It seems that the series didn't pick up where it left off last time, instead Sorata is having an emergency meeting with the rest of the residence at Sakura dorm on how to deal with Shiina. The reason is that he doesn't want to be the sole person responsible for her, however his attempt to try and get the other to help take care proves fruitless. All that result from his actions is that he gets appoint officially as her caretaker. It seems to be only a matter of time before he goes insane, but have the others take care of her might just make things worse in the long-run.

Things get worse for him the next day because it seems that Misaki has been teaching her things that she shouldn't have been. That he needs to fix the problem that Misaki create, which result in him running late. However to be able to have breakfast he drops by the convenient store that his friend Aoyama works out. Although in doing so it creates more problems for him because Shiina starts eating what ever she feels like. In the end things get resolved but this leads to even more problems when Aoyama travels with them to school, which leads to Shiina creating a misunderstanding that Sorata was her first in a sexual way. This cause Aoyama to runaway before Shiina can finish her explanation.

Later when school is ending Shiina approaches Sorata and tells him that she doesn't need him to escort her home. This cause him to panic, however he can't do anything about it when his friends jump on his case about Shiina. It seems that the reason that she didn't need his help was that Ayano her manager would be going with her. Although on the way home she stops by the convenient store to clear up the misunderstand with Aoyama, but now that Aoyama understands she feels bad about they way she acted. That she wonders how she will face Sorata now.

When Shiina returns home, she has Sorata help her with her drawings, but in a very confusing way by telling him bluntly to get naked. Apparently the reason she want him to get naked was to use him as a reference for manga. That since she isn't skilled at drawing people's expressions, Ayano suggested that it would be better to draw something with more impact. It seems he is in for a long night. The next day as he is preparing for school, he reflects on both Shiina and Aoyama how they know what they want to do with their lives and are trying to pursue it. Things come to a close when Sorata realizes how great Shiina really is when he comes across a book filled with her works.

Little Busters - ep02

Things start up where the left off with Riki going after someone that went to have lunch on the roof. After meeting up with her, Riki realize that this is Kamikita. However during her suprise of being found she end up with her skirt getting caught on something. After a little help from Riki she ends up freeing herself. Then they sit down to have a little chat where she explains her philosophy on life, that by doing something for some else you make them happy as well as your self. That if this cycle continues then everyone will become a little happier. Although before lunch ends Riki ask her to join the baseball team but in the end he doesn't receive an answer.

It seems that later on the next day after another fight between Kengo and Masato about who is stronger. Riki goes looking for Rin because she is avoid her class room duties, that if she continues to do this she will never make any friends. That it might be alright for now but in time everyone in their little group will end up going their own separate way. Although while trying to convince her, they find two messages tied onto one of the cats that Rin is playing with. The first seem to be some great mystery about there is some hidden secret about the world, while the other one is a message that tells them to clean the boy's storage shed.

Whats interesting is that once Rin convinces the other to help with the cleaning job, they run into Kamikita while clean the shed who seem to have decide to join the baseball team. It seems that the message set up this meeting, which means that these secret message will probably play a larger role in the future. Anyways with Kamikita's help the are able the finish cleaning a lot faster than initially plan on, but it seems that Rin is having some trouble with dealing with her. However since they have some time left to go into give Kamikita some sort of recruitment test.

It seems that the test that Kyousuke gives her is a single question about what is the most important thing you need to play baseball. It appears that her answer of “guts, courage, and friendship” is met with approval by Kyousuke, but everyone else doesn't quite agree because they believe that other thing are important to like actual skills. This leads them to test her on her ability the actually play the game. Which is seems that she has no capacity for at all, but when he gives her the exact same question again and she gives the same answer. It seem he doesn't really care if they can play or not make the whole test kind of pointless. Then when things are coming to a close Riki remembers what was written on the notes from before, and this seems to cause him to pass-out. It seems that these message are going the whole not just a connection on forming there team but also the secert to what is wrong with Riki.
