I like CRABS!!

Man, I have to say that so much sadism happened in the first part of this episode.
As Guido had already mentioned, the WitchBlade form of Masane is like a rabid beast with a thirst for blood, evident from when ... Spoiler for episode 3:
I've also heard speculation that this new story, in contrast with the comic book story, may somehow be linked together in the near future (possibly with a flashback story), but it's too soon to really say how far GONZO will go since it's still early in the series. On some other semi-topic stuff, did anyone else notice that several parts of the OP had changed (replaced with new scenes)?

By the way, WitchBlade had a low start but is beginning to grasp attention of few otakus out there in Japan, however, I think they're just watching the show as a commodity or guilty pleasure to kill some time. Anyways, WitchBlade has been given its own place at the futaba picture boards. I also became acknowledged from the website that the anime is getting reruns. CBC airs the original broadcast Wednesdays at 25:45 hrs -> Thursdays at 01:45 a.m. TBS reruns the aired episode Fridays at 26:25 hrs -> Saturdays at 02:25 a.m. Somewhat odd for an otaku-only anime that is loosely based from an American comic book and airs lately at nights.

I managed to gather several pics of WMasane in all her sadistic glory portrayed in episode three. The ones that make you Spoiler:
For pick-ups collection I also found an sketch image of WMasane's preliminary design that GONZO made up before the final product was released. WMasane wears the same armor except that the design is more similar to the original American. It shows more flesh, and the armor covers only the needed parts that have to be covered. Since I found the aforementioned image inappropriate to post at AnimeSuki by my own discretion, I'm leaving a link where anyone interested can view it. Spoiler:

The reason why a local station gets first broadcasting rights is because CBC is involved in the production of the show. Curiously enough, Sky Perfect Well Think (Jigoku Shoujo) has a hand in the production, so it may be a matter of time that they broadcast Witchblade on the internet or on one of the SkyPerfecTV stations.

Regarding her tongue stud, I've noticed other red orbs on her body that seem to appear then vanish. In EP 1 there was one on her thigh that was flashing, then it vanished also (unless that was explained in Ep2. and I missed it?). |

Actually, they wanted to go for that version but one of the sponsors complained a lot that it was showing too much (it was written on the official web site). AFAIK, it will be the "original" (i.e. more skin shown) version in the DVDs. |

Of-course, it's not unusual for DVDs to have cleaned up or redrawn artwork. Tight deadlines often results in shoddy work on some episodes to meet the milestones. |

Do you live in Japan, like Witchblade and have plenty of cash you have nothing to spend on?
Well, for 250K yen you can go on a Witchblade-themed trip to Anime Expo 2006 in LA. You get hotel, transportation, a tour of GONZO's offices in USA and other stuff. 8) Details here: http://www.q-sai.net/wbaxtour/ 8)) PS: Either this is a big joke and they don't really expect many to sign up, or Japan is have an overflow of idiot otaku. |

Witchblade ep. 3
I've finally caught up with with watching and summarizing Witchblade aired so far... click here for the pics and spoiler summary.
I can't believe how much heavy breathing Mamiko Noto has to do as the seiyuu for Witchblade Masane. And we get to see more players, such as Spoiler for possible future opponents for Witchblade:

Well, episode 4 was a lot more light-hearted that the previous ones. At least, Masane's part were.
But I loved Reina and her Spoiler:
Still, the huge spilling-out boobs are still a bit preposterous and simply absurd. Does every single female main character have to be the same in this "department"? All in all, a good episode, a lot simpler than usual, but the ending sorta made up for it. |
