“From the bottom of your heart, please tell me what you’re looking for.”
(For one month every year to have a 31 day orgasm, to be brought along slowly by Rosanna Arquette and that Russian model. And for all my enemies to burn in hell. For all the kids in world to join hands and sing in peace.)
This sushi is more fail than the Russian team at the Vancouver Olympics.
I see no blatant self-promotion here…
(There’s also a Cencroroll poster out of focus in this episode… but I’m much more interested in the vampire ninja idea. Has this been done yet? I think it’s been done in Ninja Scroll or some other old gory ninja movie, but has anyone done a vampire ninja harem comedy? If we’re going to combine gimmicks like Sword Art Online, we might as well combine the ninja vampire gimmick with a harem comedy. And it’ll definitely had a tiny blond ninja vampire who can transform into a fully developed temptress.)
Speaking of shameless promotions… my gosh, can we stop Pizza Hut? They must be stopped. I also don’t understand why Pizza Hut has targeted shows that seeing a Pizza Hut ad throws off the reality of the show (Code Geass, Macross Frontier, this) instead of shows where the ads would make more sense in, like Durarara!! or Eden of the East. I also like how for Code Geass, when they aired it on Cartoon Network, the Pizza Hut ads were either blurred out or removed, but Cheese-kun was allowed to stay.
Even more impressive? Even though Christmas Cake-sensei is walking out of a Pizza Hut store, that sure looks like a Taco Bell menu in the background. They sure look like Gorditas back there.
… and I kept expecting the guy to turn her down saying, “I’m sorry, but I’m marrying Anzu-chan.”
(Okay, enough about Railgun, but there just wasn’t enough meat recently in Durarara!!… I enjoy Durarara!!, but I think I much rather watch like three episodes in row than weekly. It’s definitely a marathon show.)
Really enjoy the BGM of Durarara!!. Some of the best since Clannad and Bakemonogatari.
Please tell me that isn’t Mako-cakes back there.
I think breaking bones repeatedly makes you stronger… I think breaking bones repeatedly just further weakens the bone structure. I am not a doctor, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night.
(Shizuo has some major anger management issues. We can never ever let him reproduce with Lina Inverse.)
Pretty~~
Ladd is still the pinnacle of bloodshit crazy bloodthirstiness. Shizuo is just a homeless man’s Ladd, much like how Shannon Brown is a homeless man’s Kobe Bryant.
(The way Shizuo enjoys ripping up and playing with street signs… can we get Kyoto to digitally add him to Super Driver? He’d fit right in.)
(What kind of sign is a frickin’ exclamation mark?)
From a scale of 1 to Nadeko’s pajamas in Bakemonogatari 14, Celty’s pajamas get a 3.
*shakes head*
She rides around in skin tight leather! So what if she’s headless?
All I can say is that it takes a special type of guy to fall in love with a mystical killer who doesn’t have a head. Oddly, I still find Shinra more sane than Setsuna F. Seiei.
(When I found out that we won’t be seeing 00 Qan[t] until October, I was devastated. October?! I need my Gundam fix, and Unicorn sure ain’t providing it. I find UC to be like vinyl… people give it too irrationally too much credit just because music snobs prefer the format.)
(And, again, how is this not the theme song for Gundam 00?)
(You need to watch that whole video. One of the commenter said it best, despite a complete lack of spell check, “MJ was one of his heros and they filmed this around the time he died so They changed the cherography around as a tribut :3 ” Just perfect. It should have been Lockon, Haptism, Tieria, and Setsuna in this video.)
And Celty is a tsundere? My gosh, will this ever end? Who isn’t a tsundere at this point? As in is LeBron going to be tsundere for the New York Knicks? Will Obama be tsundere for tax code reform? Will gadget blogs be tsundere for the iPad? Will my toaster be tsundere for whole wheat bread?

2 episodes of content and a third of the article based on Railgun, and still less content than one episode of Bakemonogatari. Is it a lack of quality or a lack of pacing?
Chicken Sushi!
Sour Cream Sushi!
I almost lost my dinner I was eating at the time.
…
A quest sign?
Personally, I just preferred Gundam unicorn for the FABULOUS 80’s hair. Still, 6 months between each episode? It made me sad.
Don’t forget Borscht sushi!!!
Mmmmmh tasty beets…
the russians may have sucked balls but the women on their curling team were all certifiable babes. when the americans beat them i said some very unkind things about my country
Before this season, I never would’ve imagined “headless haremette” as a valid phrase.
That pajama shirt’s pretty tight around the chest, judging from the side view. Also, with the nekomimi bike helmet, tsundere makes PERFECT sense.
it’s not like I like you or any thing Ipad. *blush shuffle* Your name sounds like a feminine product, and you don’t even have wacom pen support wtf!? *smash bang kapo!*
More like lack of interest.
Mahou Sensei Negima? It’s got a ninja and a tiny blond ninja vampire who can transform into a fully developed temptress.
What, never seen a Pizza Hut / Taco Bell combo store? I’ve also seen them with a KFC thrown too, in just for the hell of it. They’re all owned by the same company so it’s not much different than seeing a Pepsi vending machine with Gatorade or Aquafina.
The head and face seem a bit off for that one, but the one in front is definitely Kei from Moyashimon.
TOTALLY CALLED IT on the head thing. I mean, no surprise at this point, but still.
And Yagiri Pharmacy is getting creepier and creepier – not quite at Aperture Science levels, but getting there.
A bunny girl costume and an AK-47?
Repeated kicks to the groin make it stronger, so I think Shizuo’s story is plausible…

At this point in time, I will not be surprised if it turns out the people that go missing go on trials for cake.
Or illegal experiments or selling body parts. For cake, also.
I also think it’s weird how Selty has two mobile computers (the name escapes me). I don’t know how much you get paid for delivering, but I can think of better ways of spending that than two different types of phones.
Pizza Hut, Taco Bell and KFCs are owned by the same parent company, which I think is actually Pepsico. They definitely have combination chains in the states, so the menu probably isn’t a mistake.
