Mei-chan is awesome… and a toilet seat cover.
So moe… yet so Charlie Brownish…
They missed a golden opportunity– Sunohara should have pulled out Grotesque!
“Onii-chan wa zenzen dame desu!”
If I had an imouto pantheon, Mei would be a first ballot inductee, no question asked. Needless to say, I’m enjoying the Mei arc a lot more than the Fuko arc that kicked off Clannad. Who has your starfish now, Fuko?
He was so pathetic on his date with Sanae… my gosh… such an asshole move to not help out the little girl at the end. I was watching that scene and thinking, “Even Lulu would have come to her rescue.”
… and a toilet seat cover!
(Since I’m getting questions as to where that line comes from, I gotta say that for this season, if you are to understand anything about this blog, you gotta follow Clannad, Detroit Metal City, and Gundam 00 S2 at the very least. Required viewing. I’d toss in Ga-Rei Zero, the NBA, and Nodame just to be safe. And probably Kemeko DX, the presidential election, and Toradora. I have a Toradora post sitting in my drafts forever now. Well, two weeks– but that’s like forever in internet time.)
Mei-chan is the goddess of the face palm. Name one anime character who can do it better than her. I dare you. Name one. Not only is she a first ballot Imouto Pantheon inductee, she’s the Heavyweight Face Palm Champion.
I remember when ADV used to run an ad for Sister Princess that went something like “if you had twelve sisters, what would you do?” Needless to say, ADV’s in some pain right now. Anyway, out of Chikage, Karen, Sakuya, Aria-mo, etc, are any of them as moe and awesome as Mei-chan? What would you do if you had Mei-chan as your little sister constantly face palming and going, “Useless onii-chan!”
It’s one thing to have a prettier sister, but can you imagine having a mom like ten times hawter than you are?
Unquestionably the best part of the episode. “Onii-chan!” Such a powerful, powerful attack. Nunnally should have used it instead of launching FREYA at Lulu… I mean… that would have stopped his geass cold.
Why did I suddenly break out my Clannad game and try to get Mei in the storage shed… why am I sharing this with you?
(Clannad x86 coverage will resume… uh… maybe. That’s the problem with getting older. I get less and less time for blogging and gaming every year.)
Best part was when Ryou dropped her ice cream. Awesome. I like how the three hang out together… maybe it’s the abundance of purple hair or how Kyou is always a threat to bully Kotomi-chan… I’m going to start referring to them as the “Purple Posse.” I think it fits.
I like how Kyoto changed the focus on the Purple Posse as they changed dialogue. Nice touch. I wonder what’s going through Kyou’s mind right then… “Oh I see why he didn’t make a move on me back then– I’m too frickin’ old for him!”
Priceless expressions. This is the type of scene I hope for whenever Kyoto gets around to animating High School of the Dead.
I like how fast they fled away from Tomoya… they remind me of Republicans distancing themselves from George W. Bush.
(Can’t type it… must move on to next screenshot… must resist…)
Whatever you do, don’t try to picture Mei in a nekomimi meido outfit.
(OH SNAP!)
Reminds me of Chipmunk Aya Hirano for some weird reason… speaking of whom, she looks a lot better on the photos from the Namida Namida Namida single. Short hair isn’t that great of a look for her.
As president, I pledge to provide free strawberry crepes to every double-ponytail sportin’ little sister in the country. YES WE CAN!
“Mei-chan actually stayed at my place last night too.”
Sunohara is epic fail at not raging. Chris Hansen is epic fail for not showing up. Tomoya is epic fail for not inviting Sanae over for a threesome that would have caused Sunohara snap in a way ten times more drastic than when Brad Pitt finds out his pregnant wife is dead on Se7en.
Mei-chan proposes soccer to rescue her brother… soccer?! Why does every other problem in Clannad get resolved via sports? We’ve had basketball, baseball, and now soccer. I’m waiting for curling next… Misae wants to show the boy that she loved from seven years ago, but she can only do so via curling through a space/time warp!
Awesome, I was hoping you’d get around to covering this. I’m enjoying Clannad a lot this season!
And hopefully Imouto-in-a-Bag is somewhere up there as well.
That’s better than the Kyon facepalm for sure.
It was getting bad for me on how much Onii-chan I can take :P The eyes, the swaying hips. Ok no more talking about that, I realize what it mean to be a Pedobear :D
Imouto Pantheon, YES WE CAN!
The next poll should really be Sanae vs. Mei
Anyways, Mei’s legal, right? In some country… some where, right? So If I just take her there…
“Whatever you do, don’t try to picture Mei in a nekomimi meido outfit.”
…
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO T_T
Mei would be legal in Madagascar if you got married. I think that’s the only place.
You’d have to beat me to her though.
I’m sorry, but Rinrin-chan is far more moe than Mei-chan, and I’d love to have her as a sister any day. I’ll find her research ~<3
>>>Name one anime character who can do it better than her.
Hmm… Kyon?
BEST. EPISODE. EVER.
Also did you notice that Okazaki was lookin’ a bit like Konata there, and Tsukasa and Kyou were lookin’ a lot like Ryou and Kagami? Wait… I subconciously typed Tsukasa instead of Ryou? Wow…
“So moe… yet so Charlie Brownish…”
I love that pic…
“What would you do if you had Mei-chan as your little sister constantly face palming and going, “Useless onii-chan!—
*sings i’m in heaven…*
“It’s one thing to have a prettier sister, but can you imagine having a mom like ten times hawter than you are?”
stop corrupting families!!!
““Onii-chan!†Such a powerful, powerful attack.”
wars will end, peace will flourish, the economy will restart, and Jesus would return…
“(Can’t type it… must move on to next screenshot… must resist…)”
resistance is futile… prepared to be moe
“Whatever you do, don’t try to picture Mei in a nekomimi meido outfit.”
TOO LATE!!!
“As president, I pledge to provide free strawberry crepes to every double-ponytail sportin’ little sister in the country. YES WE CAN!”
all in favor?
AYE!!!
anyone oppose?
*silence*
*bang gavel*
motion passed.
Name one anime character who can do it better than her. I dare you. Name one.
Kyon…?
Mei would be legal in Madagascar if you got married. I think that’s the only place.
Mei’s 13, she’s legal in some parts of Japan.
Got Milf?
And, I love how Mei reacted every time she reacted to “Sanako”. “I FEEL SO SORRY FOR YOU~!”
I think I messed something up thar…
“It’s one thing to have a prettier sister, but can you imagine having a mom like ten times hawter than you are?â€
It means there is a good chance you’ll still be having hawt sex at age 40 with a hawt woman.
Good choice Tomoya.
Mei-chan… this episode was just moe overload.
No. The aim of Zero Re;quiem was for the world to hate Lulu as a dictator, not an incest-lolicon.
Hey that “incest-lolicon” thing kinda darted on me quite hard. Oh wait, I have no sister. Damn, I should adopt one.
Oh wait, that wasn’t in my brokenness list.
I’d like to see that happen!
Oh, yeah, have you seen ep 5-6 already? Brokenness alert for ep 6!
Hold on, the quote was to be:
“Misae wants to show the boy that she loved from seven years ago, but she can only do so via curling through a space/time warp!”
