I think you really need to put a spoiler tag and a warning/mature content label on that 2chan link Xellos-_^.

I swear those images weren't there when i posted it

Honest, really it is true

I have absolutely no knowledge of it

Newprimus · 2006-05-22, 17:38

With 2chan, you can never be too safe.

EDIT: Watching the ep now.

Something becomes very apparent within the first minutes of the episode. And that is that watching people who are basically having their first run at governing a nation is really funny to watch.

EDIT3: Finished watching. Lots of great Kamyu moments. A nice breather between the action (next ep looks like everything'll go to hell again, with a new villain it seems). I liked this one.

mikemil828 · 2006-05-22, 23:49

My favorite part of the episode:
Mundo: HIME-SAMAAAAAAAAAAA!!!
Oboro: Mundo, there isn't anything to worry ab-
Benawi: Hey, isn't your sis riding that tiger too?
Oboro: WHAT?! YUUU-ZUU-HAAAAAAAAAAA! *Gives Chase*

PGilis · 2006-05-23, 06:52

I said that once, and i will say again...

Hakuoro is THE MAN!

In a few months, he got to turn into a emperor trusted and respected by everyone and has many cute girls in love with him. Has one wanting to be his wife (Eruruu), one who he just know wanting to sleep in his bed (Kamyu) and one clearly stating she wants to sleep with him (Aruruu)! God knows what Yuzuha and Uruturii want to do with him, too...

No bad for someone found in a forest very hurt, without money, without memories and with a cursed mask glued in the face.

Hakuoro is starting to build his own Harem.. ?

Tsk.. looks as if Shirou might have some competition..

If you ask me, i think Hakuoro already proved to be a better harem male protagonist than Shirou.

At least, he is smarter, more intelligent, a natural leader, a far better tactian and, the best of all, a true grown-up matured man! Not a hot-headed teen who shouts "i want to be a hero of the justice" all the time.

EDIT: For those interested in know, I just added at the Q&A - game chat the Game summary for the part covering episode 8, too. Take a look, if you want.

DwArD · 2006-05-23, 19:27

Well, the only thing I like about Shirou is his ideals and his personality. He doesn't back down from his ideal that easily. Not to mention that he's pretty strong too.....in the game that is.

Hakuruo's a natural born leader. No doubt about it. He can fight on the battlefield but I still think his speciality lies in leading his people, not fighting. This is pretty evident in his fight against Benui. How many times has he lost fighting Benui? The only thing I don't like about Hakuruo is that he's not really aware of the girl's feelings towards him (especially Eruru). At least Shirou dared to say he like Saber.

Anyway, I'm gonna watch the raw as soon as I get home from school. Its good to deviate from the war once in a while.

Yeah, that scene was great.
I believe Oboro's actually saying "Munto, you sure are a worrywart!" which makes it even more hilarious.

I'm glad the viewer has this episode to relax before the next arc starts. Aruruw writing an "appendix" to Eruruw's report log was great, though it would have been funny if they showed the scene when Hakuoro flashes back to Eruruw's first attempt, where she's totally bugged out. I was wondering how they were going to do the runes, and I guess the speed-talk worked, though it would've been nice if it were something less human sounding.

Re: google trends...
I find it odd that there's so many searches coming out of Canada and the fact that lots of Japanese people are searching for it using the romaji.

Onizuka-GTO · 2006-05-23, 20:41

Hakuro pwns shirou.

KBTKaiser · 2006-05-23, 23:16

Sheesh...it's 8 eps in and people are still messing up Hakuoro's name...anyone keeping track of how many screwups there have been?

Takemi_Ikazuchi · 2006-05-24, 01:23

break up the name. it's easier to remember it that way.

Omniscient Senior Member Join Date: Apr 2004	Episode 08 Screencaps and Summary Spoiler: Introduction of Kamyu and Urutori. Lots of fun moments between Kamyu and Aruru (and Yuzuha). Kamyu is like a little kid in a very, erm, developed body. It was also funny watching Benaui get pissed off when Hakuoro disappears (and the work is piling up).

Remember when those two kids went ahead and flipped Eruruu's tail? Well, two kids came about and pulled a couple of Munto's feathers. Apparently it's painful rather than, ehem...pleasurable.
