Not just because of the horrible way the story was told (specially when compared to the manga). But also the mixed up art, the LSD induced colours, the inconsistent quality in the animation drives me nuts every week :p. Nevertheless, the voices are great, the music is better than most, hence I end up turturing myself watching this week after week ;). Around another five episodes to go... sigh.

Completely threw me off! "I wanna buy a pet dog, and make it fight to the death!" I was like damn... vampire ninja girls are crazy! They've got crazy bodies but also crazy minds! I love it! Although the highlight has to be Eu's voice and Chris' revelation! Same lol!

Chieri's bluntness, while true, only isolated herself from the rest as evidenced by the end where everyone was singing together while Chieri is by herself. That doesn't strike me as very inspirational. The themes the anime showed so far is pretty clear. Chieri represents the talented and highly skilled but a loner and lacks the "idol spirit". Mayuyu even calls her out on this. Nagisa is the naive every man(girl), who's not very talented but values others and is devoted to being an Idol together with her friends. Unless the writing throws a curve ball, its quite clear which side the story favors. That not what happened though.

There are IRL examples for this (of course not mecha, "just" tank). Maybe they have rockets against air raid. Maybe they don’t have more firepower.

The way how they jump from one story to another... for example, Akahito-san was supposed to come after all this stuff. They even didn't show us the story of the Six Year Sakura. I hope we will still get to see it... Well I really like this anime, but somehow I am dissappointed at the same time.

About Urabe not wanting to show herself to Tsubaki, I think that is because of the setting: at the beach you're expected to show up in swimwear and everyone else also is but put that in a private setting (his bedroom) and the act becomes much more intimate, almost sexual. I also think that Urabe's inexperience has a hand into it too. Another aspect that amazes me is how Urabe seems to be in full control of the relationship but she can become so selfless whenever she tries to make Tsubaki happy.

I get that they're trying to cram things into a single cour, but the manga spent a lot more time questioning whether Shadow Yuuko is even real, let alone who she is. The way the anime explained everything right off the bat--before Teiichi has even seen Shadow Yuuko himself--ruins all the suspense and makes Shadow Yuuko feel like a monster-of-the-week. Between her and the way Kirie's character was toned down so much, I'm starting to wish it had just been a slice of life series. I have to admit I was really disappointed by this episode.

It felt like the sequence and logic was skipped somewhere in the middle of the episode. Some conversations felt weird (felt like they were just breaking the fourth wall), and the episode seem to have skipped a few steps towards the end to reach the conclusion. I sort of get what is being protrayed, but the missing peices make it feel less compelling than the previous episodes. The writing in this episode really needed more polish.

They said that Chieri could be a good catalyst because her personality pushes things out of the status quo, like it did with Kanata. It has nothing to do with her potential as an idol. That said, I do think Chieri has a lot of potential. After all, even if kirara still doesn't glow for her, it did follow her, and still does. You’re thinking to much, fragb85.
