「目指せ！海賊の巣」 (Mezase! Kaizoku no Su)

The seas of space belong to everyone.

「操り人形」 (Ayatsuri Ningyou)
“Puppet”
Um… I don’t think I’ve ever been as confused about an episode as I am about this one…

「嬉しくてファイティング / 衝撃のアンダーウォーター」 (Ureshikute Faiteingu / Shougeki no Andauota)
“Joyous Fighting / Striking Underwater”
The reveal of the Tsuritama’s great mystery was rather underwhelming, but otherwise the show is on a roll as we enter the climax.
*For those of you following my AKB0048 posts, I have also included a short note explaining the delay.*

「困ります」 (Komarimasu)
“It’s Worrisome”
There it is, folks – we pulled a Kagami and Kuroko and made a magic pass while no one was looking! Bad jokes aside, I’m extremely happy to be picking up this show, so thanks to Guardian Enzo for passing it over!

「最果ての海」 (Saihate no Umi)
“The Sea at the World’s Edge”
The banquet of kings concluded with a feast for our eyes and an emptiness in our hearts. We all knew it was going to happen, but the expectation did not diminish the epicness of the moment.

「鬼の伝承」 (Oni no Denshou)
“Tradition of the Demon”
What? Plot? In my Hiiro no Kakera? Quick – someone roll out the red carpet because it needs to be given the VVVVVIP treatment and convinced to stay! Seriously though, there was a huge leap forward this week, and it was even weaved in together nicely with some character development!

「最強」 (Saikyou)
“Best”
This is it. This is why I’m watching this show. Finally, here’s the crazy, ridiculous, over-the-top-awesome Saki-style mahjong that we’ve all been waiting for. Hellz yes!
Uchuu Kyoudai – 11

「閉じ込められたライバル達」 (Tojikomerareta Raibarutachi)

Now this is the kind of test I’ve been looking forward to!

「たいふうゆうれい、今日のオモイデ」 (Taifu Yuurei, Kyou no Omoide)
“A Typhoon, Ghosts, and Today’s Memory”
The Big Rock sometimes seems to act like a classic “monkey’s paw,” where wishes are fulfilled in ways the wishers didn’t intend. Well, except for the fact that here they usually lead to a fun little adventure, instead of soul-shattering horrors the likes of which man was never meant to experience. So I guess it’s nothing like it at all.
