If I misunderstood what you were trying to say, I apologize in advance. Also, a question, just for curiosity's sake, do you have a favorite out of the girls, Altima? Also found this online. Don't know if it's been posted before.

I find the statements crude and lacking any real depth other than his ship has been sunk. Shizuku isn't actually my favorite character, that would fall under mikoto, who is/was the girl I was rooting for, although that has no pertinence to this discussion. The point is the writing, is A) adapted from a continuing source B) naturally some scenes will be farfetched, but that's you know STORYTELLING, I'm pretty sure every time narusegawa punched keitaro he didn't actually become a moon man. Your expectations are set for something that isn't solely set in reality and the characters themselves actually feel real which is what counts at the end of the day.

Without going too much off-tangent, with "it cost me" I was referring to an experience at the end of my school days before army and university: There was a girl I was really interested in, and with who I was always on flirty-cordial terms, but she had someone else following her around, too. I thought it was improper to intrude on that, and even though I had a chance to kiss her and drive away with her from the final party, leaving the others behind, I didn't. I thought it would be improper and unfair. On the 20-years-later party we met again, and she told me that she was prepared and hoping to formally get together with me had I been a trace more aggressive, but in the end, she felt that the other guy simply needed her more, even though she'd have preferred me back then - had I shown the same dedication. And girls want to feel needed. She's happily married to Mr. B now, by the way. I wish you good luck with your idealistic view. It sounds oh so familiar to me. You'll need it. Quote:

Nice visual with the cobra
I'd say they made the change for Shizuku so very subtle because she does _not_ really change at all. She retains all her personality characteristics (which is unusual, Akane literally changes into her opposite, Mikoto also becomes very aggressive, and Natsuru - well, no comment). Therefore, retaining her looks makes sense... and the hair color change is just enough to indicate whether she's in Kämpfer mode or not. Nothing more than that. |

If Natsuru was originally a girl, his Kampfer mode would probably not be noticeably different; all of his changes seem to be of the male -> female variety, rather than hair color/personality, etc. that seems to happen to Akane and Mikoto far more than the "average Kampfer" from what we've seen. Also, the white Kampfers don't seem to change much at all; their before/after's look identical from what I saw in episode 9; as to personalities, I assume their personalities stay relatively constant like Natsuru/Shizuku (but who knows, we don't really know how they are before)... If I had to speculate, I'd guess that there's a possibility that the Kampfer mode brings out characteristics that a person subconsciously wishes to have exemplified normally. This would explain Akane and Mikoto who would probably want to be more aggressive than they are normally. Even before Akane met Natsuru, she probably didn't want to always be seen as the meek studious girl, and Mikoto's always wanted to be able to take Natsuru. This theory works a lot better for Akane who is much more pleased with how her Kampfer mode is more able to push Natsuru along into doing things for her, but Mikoto seems to be able to do that anyways for the most part without her Kampfer mode (i.e. naked apron greeting). Shizuku on the other hand seems more content with how she is as a person, so her Kampfer mode would not be too dissimilar from her normal self. As for Natsuru, he probably always wanted to be able to be closer to Sakura, so subconsciously maybe he wanted to try being a hot stylish girl in order to be friends with her >_>, but that's a fairly speculative conjecture.

there's something wrong there, Shizuku didn't use that panties, for your information she use the sexy one (look at inner cover of vol 3 manga that Mentar-bro posted in manga section)
beside her expression seems off too. Not fit her image at all. So it true that drug is cheaper than anime |

Heck I fail to understand how you can compare shows like Kampfer and try to use "real life" to justify how the show doesn't make sense and that this is how people should react when a set of events happen. Hell I have never seen a sex changing male who becomes a magical girl that shoots fire in real life but i don't see you complaining about that aspect of the show... Quote:

I'm not trying to pick a fight but the way in which you analyse and assess a show to me is flawed, by not watching in the context of the story and i've provided my arguments for that point.

really enjoyed the latest episode and im pretty interested into how it ends (please no traditional Harem ending unless they are making a second series). dont get me wrong im for Shizuku x Natsuru all the way but after theat i also really like Akane and Mikoto and hope they do get a bit of Natsuru before the series ends.
as the series progresses i really cant see this going to be a Kaede friendly ending. and its either going to be Shizuku or Akane who will end up with Natsuru.
