Sentinel's Song
I would say that this episode was evenly pace due that all subplots were fairly developed with more or less the enough amount of time neither overlapping with nor overshadowing each other.
The strongest ones involved Tsubasa realizing at the end of the date what Kanade saw. The precious world both strive to protect, and the world where their song can be reached by millions of people out there. This second statement becomes an ideal that Tsubasa chose to make more people happy and be happy with herself, understanding that there's more to the world to live for than just living in service of it as a weapon. As for Chris, everyone of us are nailing right that for the moment she doesn't want to be tamed or put in a situation where she has to trust or depend upon an adult, expecting the worst of every possible scenario involving an adult: betrayal or something worse (thanks for the latter, Fénie). The good thing is that whatever sins that Genjuuro might have made in the past he never intends to run from them but accepting the responsibilities. He's what in the anime world they call one of the nice adults that contrasts against the rotten adults, whom only lust for greed, power, desires, and pleasure and think of themselves above everyone else with no moral regard for other peoples' well-being and feelings, particularly where children are concerned. |

I LOLed at Tsubasa's choice for a karaoke song. Bad End for cheating. Poor Lucky Ogawa, better not play around while she's gone. (Yes I know no shipping indications on those two but he does take care of her.)
As for Chris even if Genjuro saved her she clearly doesn't trust adults. Particularly adult men. Given her past it is understandable. But she'll trust girls her age. I find it refreshing they avoided the indirect kiss trope. Chris doesn't mind eating and drinking stuff Genjuro bit and drank as she is starving and probably dehydrated. |

And, he'll die protecting her through getting shot by a wild barrage of Noise's gun blasts while she looks in horror, confusion, and lividness. And, Chris should get herself a fairy partner that would perform some nasty styles on her hair just to piss her off, and the fairy would probably enjoy reading shojo manga and fantasizing scenarios where Chris and Genjuuro fulfill their romance for each other while sorting out all kinds of Noises' dangers. Although, there could be the improbability clause taking effect in such fantasy scenarios where Chris would betray and backstab Genjuuro just because he's an adult and cannot be trusted, her declaring that she doesn't need love or anything like that. |

Tsubasa singing enka is pure win....and we all love Nana Mizuki, Tsubasa going international, I'm sure Nana Mizuki is pretty damned popular globally too...
I love how Tsubasa is enjoying herself for once. Chris x Genjuuro? The pairing is cute I'll admit. If it really goes that way I hope he doesn't end up dying to save her though...gods that will be too cruel... I dunno why but I love this show so much....just keeps hitting all the right buttons I suppose....

It's lighthearted and sort of funny, when all three of them cry at the movie. Also the lyrics of Tsubasa's karaoke song is "if you ever betray me, I'll cut you to pieces"
The "date" had a nice end, but I still wish Hibiki could have gotten the cat stuff toy for her.

Tsubasa has finally fully recovered.
Those three sure had a nice time hanging out like regular girls do. It was nice. So Tsubasa got to redo her concert from before, while Hibiki fought off the monsters. Chris is actually not so bad since she's having mixed feeling about helping Hibiki.

That karaoke scene is probably going to be one of my favourite scenes just because I could hear Nana singing enka again.
Also, the return of Tsubasa's bike, yay! I want to see her driving on it while kicking ass at least once. |

Edit: There weren't a lot of good frames to choose from during the part when Chris used both her rockets and gatling guns. If you wanted to see a different moment altogether, let me know. Spoiler for Chris w/ weapons:
Tsubasa's concert was awesome, as was her outfit on stage. The colours were great and the animation was rather fluidic. She also made lots of adorable expressions, which will look nice as avatars. Last edited by Ray; 2012-03-06 at 18:29. |

And Hibiki does a ground wave attack O_O"? It looks so familiar but i can't remember the name... And lol at the karaoke part..."If you betray me, I will cut you into pieces." Please cut all your fans as they are possible traitors. (Oh wait I am one of them. *IS CUT*) Last edited by Scarletknive; 2012-03-06 at 21:45. |
