Who's KANA?

Although the soundtrack was good. It was amazing. And I like the image of Vlad.

Also he didnt meet the Ghost. How could they make me hope for a cliffhanger.

Oh crap... Moving Kana is so cute. >.<
She's prettier than in the LN.

Since they diverted a lot from the LN. there has been too many things that didn't make sense.
The billiard shot was okay but it didn't fell on me as well. Furthermore, Vlad looked like he self-destruct in the end lol.

what you know give yet to seen those final 2 eps yet one of my guessing was right http://forums.animesuki.com/showpost...4&postcount=43 i call it knew heel turn was going to happen.

as for seeing pics any bets of s2?

hahhhh.....it really sucks

can't do anything about it....

the last episode went disappointing

Did anyone see the next ep preview from ep11?

LOL at Yuuji, Saito and Ryuuji's names being mentioned!!:D

Geez, a comedy till the very end, no?

The last boss turned out to be Meshijima (come to think of it, the director or someone of Yumekui Merry is working on this...) + DCS.

He gets defeated in one shot. (As for blocking, I think protecting the face is quite important even if that wasn't a person's "weak point". Wait, that means weak point...)
Aria: "You said it too late!" <-- No, you acted too late

Riko in general. "Hey, I betray you" --> "Hey, help me" --> Hey, that's his weakness, go for it" --> "Hey, let's leave Aria" --> "Hey, I'm so cool" --> "Hey, I'm your rival".
All in one episode.
But hey, you know, good for you! Since your IVs suck, no one will call you Ditto anymore and use you to breed for children! Not only that, but you will be released into the wild, never to be seen again.
But despite being stomped so hard, you don't seem to have any lasting wounds!
So I guess your IVs is:
HP: 1
Atk: 0
Def: 28
Sp. Atk: 0
Sp. Def: 0
Speed: 0
?

I'll wait till the final impressions to say more, but I just had to get this out because the last episode was so ba... entertaining.

I watched this just for the hot girls :heh:



Btw this wasn't the last episode, there is still one unaired which will be released with the last bluray/dvd volume.

rofl.
I know episode 12 was suppose to be serious there.

But I couldn't help cracking up when Vlad kept stomping on Riko and Kenji and Aria just stood there for 2-3minutes straight.

and also Vlad's evil laugh is terrible.

Hm, episode 12 proved to be surprisingly intense. Vlad didn't look quite like what I imagined though, I thought he'd look more human unlike the beast-man that we did get. Quite a cruel and ruthless villain, but that's what made him interesting.~

And for the anime-only watchers, the "ghost" from Shirayuki's prediction is indeed this woman named Kana. Whatever significance she has with Kinji is your guess to make for now I s'pose.

Is their any indication on what the bonus episode will cover? Or is it just going to be a plot-less extra episode?

so much wasted potential in this show

7/10

not a 6/10 b/c i think aria is the most kawaii drawn character in a long time

I really liked the episode, but I had my "WTF is wrong with you face" on when Kinji and Aria stood there while Riko was being tortured, does someone being tortured really need to ask for help before someone does anything?

I want a second season, a lot of likeable characters in this anime despite the cliches

They explain in the novel why they couldnt move, Kinji couldnt move because of Histeria Mode because if there is a girl that is in a situation where she is taken hostage, and there is a possibility of the girl losing his life then he cannot move. Because Histeria will not take a step towards the uncertainity of a girl dying.
Aria cannot act as well because Riko is a witness in the case for his mother.

Sayonaki has close to none experience handling weapons which would be easy. But in the novel its said (I coudnt verify in the anime) he is wielding a very old weapon, that kind of weapon that you dont have the slight idea if its going to fire itself, plus two wolves and the approach of Vlad.

When he becomes Vlad, destroys that weapon like nothing and he says that if they move he will squash the head of Riko like a Tomato. This are things said in the Novel.

Huge fail of adaptation at the end, I don't understand why they needed to bring Aria for him to transform.

Oh what you know I never gave much thought about Aria but in ep 11 @ about 14:30 Aria sat there with her hair in pigtails totally makes her alot cuter than her usual look.
It's almost enough to make her my favorite but not quite.

Other than that, not much on anything that was of interest expect maybe Riko, and Riko as Kana.

Ep 12 was "wtf?" like Cub-sama I could only faceplam at Kinji and Aria standing there like a brick wall when Riko is being tortured.
Jesus I know being at a stand off is to create some tension but this was just bad, bad on a epic level.

I'll borrow a quote from serenade_beta

"Aria: "You said it too late!" <-- No, you acted too late"

If a 2nd season gets the green light then very well, I'll check it out just for the sake of it and the possiblity of Kana showing up but dI doubt I can ever say this series was good, I think I'll settle for ok/meh.

Now i want to know who Kana is, hope there'll be a season 2
