@zztop: My friend where do I even begin, anime has screwed depicting moments so much, that I don't even wanna talk about it. Angel looking less horrified is least of my complaints.....

Every damn thing is so awkward....

Well, if you're actually gonna start somewhere then I request that you begin with the little character interactions that would have made the character development and romance look smoother. Then move on to the awesomeness of the fight scenes the anime didn't portray properly.

@Ougon no Kemono
I request that you verify some of my speculations. i just want to see how much I'm right.

Concerning Aiba, I'm guessing that picture of her with someone else in the flashback was her mother? Considering the color of Kujou's hair at the time and what appeared to be a hospital setting, I'm guessing that her mother was one of the victims of a Root-possessed Nagisa?

Concerning Kanon, the colored novel illustrations introducing the characters labelled her as Faux Angel. Faux is the French word for fake. This coupled with her disgusting appearance, which I doubt a real angel would have looked like, I'm guessing that she's an artificial angel experimented upon. Considering that the organization she belongs to made clear attempts to abduct the princess who, according to a previous spoiler, possesses divine blood, are they trying to capture her to study her and perfect Kanon?

So this is a cute tsundere. I've never seen one before.

P.S. Am I crazy if I think the Aiba in the flashback is hotter than the current one?

Hey welcome back! (just try to be more careful from now on)

I am currently at campus, and I don't have the books with me. So I don't know with how much accuracy I'll be able to answer your questions, because its been a long time since I read those arcs.

But lets see how much I can answer.

About Asagi: That scene in the anime is an insert which was not supposed to be there (I don't remember, if its even supposed to be in this volume).

About Kanon: Everthing about this girl is fake... Everything! She and lot of others wield fake sacred powers in this arc.

Daro~~ Sayaka-chan's actions are so cute~ yet a bit tsun-tsuning at the same time~ You have good a taste! Bonjin can't understand her cuteness!

She was certainly more appealing in that flashback

Thanks! Good to know I'm not losing it.

Princess spotted! Just downloaded the latest Dengeki Daioh magazine where the main article is on Strike the Blood! Le Folia's character design is out and man she looks fine.

Avaricia · 2013-12-06, 10:55

Folia finally showed up

Ougon · 2013-12-06, 11:19

Her popularity will be short lived... Sadly...

What do you mean? From the spoilers, it sounded like she was the best girl with the only downside being that she never made an appearance outside of her arc.

That's exactly what I mean... She shines for this arc only...

She easily got overshadowed by Asagi and others... And by the time of vol 7&8, Avrora destroys every other girl..

Edit: PS: To Others,

I will not answer any questions in pm, so please stop pm-ing me.

If you have any questions post it here.

Edit#2: Answers,

Spoiler for Folia:

zerodragon · 2013-12-06, 13:41

what did Avrova do to make it that she destroy everyone else?

Ougon · 2013-12-06, 13:45

It was just a figure of speech. What I meant was, Avrora had become the most popular Heroine by the time of vol 8.

Edit: The correct translation for ラフォリア is La Folia, not Freya.

La Folia is Spanish for Follies of Spain, a famous European melody. Her last name should be translated as Rehavian, french for Rehavia? Need some clarification on her last name.

Edit:

After watching episode 10, I hope Natsuki will get her arc with Kujou. It'll be such a shame and waste otherwise. Her cool and mature personality is exceptionally interesting and the dynamic between her and Kujou is refreshing, seeing as how Kujou doesn't get nervous or flusters around her. Also, strong gap moe is strong.

Natsuki's character emits optional boss character, with difficulty rating that's through the roof. Kujou is gonna have to work super hard to conquer her. Kujou can already tease her and get away with it, so he has a favorable chance. I'm going to bet the 2nd Kenjuu is going to be tamed drinking her blood.

This pleases me.

Any questions I'd really have would just be vague as hell, like 'give a rundown for Natsuki' and the like. So if I had to be specific, I suppose I'd ask: why does Nagisa refer to her family by their first names? I actually like it for a change of pace, though.

Ougon · 2013-12-06, 16:22

No specific reason, Nagisa is being herself, that's just how she is. Avrora is completely unrelated to this manner of speech. As I wrote before, Nagisa referred Kojou, and Gajou the same way, even before she had Root/Genshou possess her.

As for Natsuki-chan, few things about her will be touched in the next arc, like her "real identity".

Speaking of next arc, it should be covered in 8 episodes, since 4&5 volume consists of a single arc. But who knows, they might butcher it, and insert volume 7&8 in too.

blackwhite67 · 2013-12-06, 17:14

Just watched the latest episode and there's something I don't get. Why the hell didn't Akatsuki just summon Alnasl Minium and ride him back home? We all saw it fly during its debut. Oh, and what was that phrase Yaze tried saying to calm Sayaka and Aiba down? Blue-something?

Questions for Ougon no Kemono.
Does Akatsuki ever find out Avrora's still alive and what was her reason for not revealing herself to him sooner?
If he does, then does he ever use her in battle?
Does Avrora surface to spend time with Kojou after he finds out?
Does Kanon join the harem?

Ougon · 2013-12-06, 17:55

A Japanese metaphor, if translated into English, it should be something like "getting it down or something like that"

No to first three questions.

Not a part of harem per see, but she idolizes him.

By the way, Kanon and Folia are deeply connected..

tuckersister · 2013-12-06, 18:06

I still puzzled by the Aiba's glowing red eyes. Was that discussed in the light novels?

Certainly, you're right that Kojou could just summon his Kenjuus for a ride back home.

If you consider the type of powers that the two Kenjuus possessed, Kojou might be fine if he's the one riding it since he's the master. But on Yukina's case, the question if her body could survive riding a Lion made of Thunder or a Unicorn that produces sonic vibrations.

I think she won't survive, honestly.

As for Kanon,

Spoiler for ....:

bludvein · 2013-12-06, 18:22

Also, his kenjuus aren't just extensions of his power. They have a will as well, and forcing one of them to give him a ride could be seen as kinda degrading. Their relationship is tenuous enough as it is.

Of course thats assuming Kojou is even immune to his own power, which is uncertain to begin with.

Spoiler for ...:

Ken Sanders · 2013-12-06, 18:37

I hope that Kojou could, at least, be creative with his powers, you know.

Like in the manga, he created a thunder ball and do his thing. There are many things you could make from a thunder.

Although, asking to make himself into lightning seems a bit of a stretch.
