Random Curiosity

「覚醒ノ刻」 (Kakusei no Koku)
“Time of Awakening”

Known as “Broken Blade” in English, Yoshinaga Yunosuke’s manga saw the start of its six-part adaptation in late May of this year. What’s unique about this one is that it’s a joint production between Production I.G. and XEBEC and of the movie variety.

「Streets of the DEAD」

Rule #2, the Double Tap. Hirano, you’re doing it wrong. :/

「夏のこずえ」 (Natsu no Kozue)
“KOZUE in the summer”

Compared to previous weeks, this episode was a bit of a letdown in terms of plot and humor. I attribute that primarily to ditsy Kozue not being all that funny to me, but things did start off on an interesting note with the mention of Out-Of-Place Artifacts, a.k.a. OOPArts.

「炎の鶺鴒」 (Honoo no Sekirei)
“The Flame Sekirei”

All Minaka had to do was tell existing Ashikaba that there’s fresh meat out there for the taking to get them to come in droves, but it’s kind of concerning how there’s no regard for what gender Homura is as long as he’s seen as “free goods.”
