2nd movie...

Spoiler:

Wow, this definitely gave me a weird feeling. The string of murders done by shiki was grueling but then finding out that it was actually SHIKI who commits the murders. So there are basically two personalities to Shiki and the male side of her enjoys killing people because it is somewhat the inferior side who tries to protect Shiki from people. This is kinda confusing but makes sense if you watch it. Now time to think about how to write this up

I must say it was a little bit boring because of the lack of a real plot, but it was interesting to see how the two (Shiki and Mikiya) met. This murder series seems also to be quite interesting, I'm looking forward to the solution. But it's really sad that the second half will be at the end of the movies. The only thing that didn't please me that well was the music. I liked the one from Fukan Fuukei much better. But I guess I'm going put the second OST also on my iPod, since I'm a TM-Fanboy~ xD

2nd half will not be end of the movies. There will be 7 movies total.

Uh, chapter two is "murder speculation (1st half/part one)"

Spoiler for knk:

and he meant that the 2nd half IS THE FINAL (7th) MOVIE (and he is correct).

Right. The seventh (and final) movie will be the second half of Murder Speculation ^.^
By the way, it seems that the novels are now licensed in the USA, is that correct?

If this were true, that would be great. Fansubs only got to the third chapter if i recall correctly.

[Avisch]

Shiki ....and SHIKI

And now to wait for exactly one month for the third movie....which I imagine will be favorite (cause it's my favorite chapter).

[NakedAngelX]

Could this be considered as a over hyped anime? I watched the first 2 volume so far and am completely lost as what this show is really about...... First series being killing some spirit and 2nd one killing human? Random and no real story?

And one question, the boy that knows Shiki in class. What's their relationship? He acted like he never met her before at first. But in volume one aren't they the one in the same office? Like the other lady.

You're confused. The 2nd movie takes place before the 1st movie (how Shiki and Mikiya met).

[NakedAngelX]

Awww i see thanks for telling me that, did they show what year it took place in the 1st volume too? Lol guess i didn't bother to remember the date....

Why can't they just play it in order anymore..... Higurashi.... Suzumiya Haruhi... all in weird orders which is creative but stupid... I don't like this jump in chronicle orders.

o and who's Mikiya? the boy? i hear Shiki calls him Kokuto or sth

[ragnesis]

Yeah. Mikiya is the boy. Kokuto Mikiya.

[NakedAngelX]

Lol Kokuto, that just sounds soooo similar to Pokute =P (The thing Guu eats in jungle wa itsumo lol)

O anyone mind telling me how did Shiki end up in hospital? If it's to be revealed later on then nvm... I don't remember her being in hospital from episode 1.. (So the police found the skin of the killer and decided not to catch her? =S)

[KaneDragon]

Too many Shiki's. Must lock them in a box until there are less.



Just like the first, the second movie leaves me in confusion. Oh well, now to wait for the next one...



How touching. :3


Do want. ;_;

[Mentar]

I liked the second one MUCH better than the first. In fact, now that we learned more about the Kokuto-Shiki relationship, I'll probably rewatch the first one to see if some more things will be making sense now.

The first movie takes place in 1998.

[OceanBlue]

I love the soundtrack in the second one. It's much more catchy.
Also, this one somehow felt longer than the last one. It felt like they split the scenes up/changed the setting more in the first one, yet it felt like the scenes in the second one were longer somehow.

Shiki suffers from the oblivious syndrome that the other Type-Moon protagonists suffer though.

Overall, I liked the second one more. I'm fanboying over the soundtrack.

5 Shikis!

This story is pretty confusing in the novel as well...It got me pretty lost until i read it a few time. So dont be too quick to judge the overall story yet...afterall theres only 7movie to cramp alot of details of the 7chapters of the novel into it

[vorpal83]

There were a few massive hints here and there

[raidragon]

ZOMG...................Shiki is more moe than Saber^^........................

i dunno but somehow Shiki face is really fit for a tsundere^^.....and SHIKI is just too cute^^

[vorpal83]

SHIKI's a guy...

[arkxkra]

Spoiler for movie 2:

movie 2 was good, although many blood.

i like how they meet each other, and the part Kokuto getting kill was quite nice. Is Shinki want to protect Kokuto from car accident(since both of them at the end there at the road) so she end up get hit by the car? 2nd half need to wait how long T_T, suddenly end there. i believe she not the murderer.

I do want that 2 cute stuff doll.

look forward to next episode, the eyes is awake, another eyes also look good.
