After what happened in ch95-96, I don't think I can settle for anything other than a TsuraraxRikuo ending.

gonzo562 · 2010-02-28, 17:16

hope the scans for 95-96 come out soon

can someone spoil what happens in 95 and 96 for me

Mizuno · 2010-02-28, 17:39

Spoiler for 96:

Direwolf18 · 2010-02-28, 17:44

Yea I was rooting for Tsurara pretty hard before 96... After 96... Anything else would be an utter travesty.

Yushi · 2010-02-28, 21:56

Yeah! I've always noticed that Tsurara got a lot more moments with the night Rikuo than anyone else (not just as one of the girls, but also as a member of his group). XD I won't let my hopes up but...but... *_*

Mizuno · 2010-02-28, 22:14

I don't think I have cheered for a pairing as hard as this since forever. It must happen, and I know I'll "kya!" like a school girl when it does happen. XD

evil|plushie · 2010-02-28, 22:38

well, Tsurara has now raised the 'damsel in distress' flag.

I think he meant the Yuki-onna from Toono, Reira not Setsura, the yuki-onna from the past

Mizuno · 2010-03-01, 06:05

This is probably the perfect time to do a flashback on his father's death.

And yeah we can't tell if she died... it seemed like the pipe crushed both her and that monkey ayakashi.

Btw what's the official website link?

Nvm, found it.

I must say, after hearing the entire drama CD, Fukuyama Jun is really the perfect seiyu for Rikuo. He uses his Shinra voice for day Rikuo and Lelouch voice for night Rikuo. You can hear him using both voices here:

It's the one where night Rikuo talks to day Rikuo in his dream.

Am I the only one who feels as if normal Rikuo doesn't have enough influence in this arc? Interesting developments and cliffhangers [and more Tsurara] are fine, but I'm going to feel disappointed if it neglects an entire part of Rikuo's character when the beginning of the manga was essentially him reconciling his two selves.

I agree, I like normal Rikuo more than most of the characters (then again I love the normal characters in shows so I'm crazy) so it feels like forever since we've seen him (especially since it hasn't been resolved if his night and day selves are actually the same person with different mannerisms or two separate personalities). Looks like we'll get a few chapters with him coming up soon though!

Iggy_Pop · 2010-03-02, 20:12

You do realize Rikuo is in his day form right now?
I really don't like day rikuo that much, his night form is much better

Is he? I know it's daytime and Rikuo's body didn't shift, but did his mind switch? I can't imagine his day form having the courage to do what Rikuo's doing right now, and as far as I remember, their bodies are different.

Edit: Ah, I haven't read ch. 96 yet.

Mizuno · 2010-03-02, 23:16

Rikuo has done this once already, first time was when he saved Tsurara from that subordinate Gyuuki sent to test him.

arrr, I totally forgot about the supposed different personalities of the day and night side. The latest chapter seems to show day and night Rikuo having no conflict whatsoever (no night Rikuo telling day Rikuo off...). Kind of getting confused over this whole thing now.

Iggy_Pop · 2010-03-02, 23:48

Actually, Rikuo was not completely at day from yet when he was fighting Tsuchigumo. His blood was mixing, just like when he fight Tamazuki, it was only at the end where he fully transform into day form.

Mizuno · 2010-03-03, 00:41

You mean his personality was mixing, they are one blood, one body.
