Nisemonogatari – 04
「かれんビー 其ノ貳」 (Karen Bii Sono Yon)
“Karen Bee Part Four”
Kiss-shot Acerola-orion Heart-under-blade 「キスショット・アセロラオリオン・ハートアンダーブレード」, where have you been this whole time?
Persona 4 the ANIMATION – 16
「Although the Case Was Closed」
One thing that separates great detective stories from good ones is the creativity of the “traps”. Now I’m not necessarily saying that Persona 4 is a great detective story by any means, but how many of you concentrated so much on looking for the usual places that traps exist (like false suspects and misleading evidence) that you failed to realize that the detective themselves may be a trap?
Area no Kishi – 04
「ラストパス」 (Rasuto Pasu)
“Last Pass”
Three episode rule or not, I’m still not sure where I stand with Area no Kishi even after four.
High School DxD – 04
「友達,救います!」 (Tomodachi, Sukui Masu!)
“Going to Save a Friend!”
Suddenly High School DxD has turned into a fanservice show with…actually not that much fanservice. If you dropped this show because of gratuitious nudity, you will probably still be annoyed when it inevitably returns, but in the meantime us pervs are getting to enjoy a little plot. Nice.
Guilty Crown – 14
「攪乱 election」 (Kakuran)
“Disturbance”
As much as I love Hare, she does say the darndest things. Shuu can be a king? Come on Hare, you’re just playing right? Right!?
Amagami SS+ plus – 04
「桜井梨穂子 後編 フウリン」 (Sakurai Rihoko Kouhen – Fuurin)
“Sakurai Rihoko, Second Chapter – Wind Chime”
Forget “check my soul”, someone needs to “check my pulse” to see if I’m still alive after this episode. With the way things were progressing, I had all but given up hope that the long-awaited moment would come and save Rihoko from her cruel fate in the first season. As the remaining minutes ticked away…
Papa no Iu Koto wo Kikinasai! – 03
「泣いてたまるか」 (Naitetamaruka)
“I Won’t Cry”
With everyone’s emotions jumping from one end of the spectrum to the other, this week’s episode was full of laughs and surprisingly touching moments.
I’ll take this opportunity to say it again — if you still have reservations about watching this show, you need to give them up and give this show a shot. Especially if you love some good, old fashioned family drama.
