Just when I was thinking based on everything up until epi 10 that I was fine with the anime original stuff...what the hell was that...

Anh_Minh · 2010-09-06, 16:52

What worries me is - is it planned with the mangaka? Does it mean the same damn thing is going to happen there?

Sure as hell better NOT be, I'll tell you that much

Yeah seriously. I am barely recovering from this. It was a really bad blow.

Never fear, for that promise Musubi made to Chiho will come to pass or I'll eat my mouse...

Ravenblitz · 2010-09-06, 19:40

>_> wow unexpected... i knew from episode 9 that this anime will have its own original ending but this episode...

Yeah about the only thing that saved that episode for me was Musubi's promise. I mean sure she doesn't know everything that's going on, but someone with that kind of mindset will make things happen. It's not the last we've seen of Uzume that's for sure. Though it probably won't be any time soon.

Still poor Uzume. Really liked her character and going out like this was just wrong. The fight against Musubi felt weird with them both throwing some attacks and then just collapsing

. Then they just have to go with the sacrifice by Uzume to save Musubi.

The good thing was the flashbacks between Uzume and Chiho. They better find a way to save Chiho. Also loved Matsu just unleashing hell upon Higa. Never piss her off or she will just destroy your life.

That's nice but do wonder if they will make with the Sekirei of Fate something of what they did in the end of Mai-HiMe if anyone knows what happened they will know what I mean.

Still going from episode 7. Will watch the rest later when I got time. Enjoyed the many scenes, but I enjoyed the pics of the DS since they look so badass, especially Karasuba, I have to admit.

Spoiler for Space:

Don't post much but thank god for manga land unless the mangaka has something like that planed .

Eh?

If anyone in that pic look bad ass is Miya!

Karasuba is still bad ass now. Miya not as much as in that pic so that is why I like her bad ass attitude.

Spectacular_Insanity · 2010-09-07, 00:15

I'm sure everyone will kill me for saying this, but I saw it coming early in the episode. Once they started the flashbacks and how precious Uzume and Chiho were to each other, I KNEW one of them was gonna die. My money was on Uzume because she's a Seikirei (we haven't seen many Ashikabi die in this show, if any). Unfortunately I was right.

How did I know, you ask? Well, we had never seen ANY detailed flashbacks about how Uzume and Chiho became partners. Not to mention I don't read the manga like I assume most of the rest of you do, so I guess I had no preconceptions to distract me.

Kinda a pathetically cliched ending for Uzume's death, I thought she deserved better than what she got. I seriously wonder if the mangaka just doesn't care about the anime version, if it's as different from the manga as I glean from everyone else's surprise/outrage.

karuroso · 2010-09-07, 01:02

HELL YEAAAAAAAH!!! YURI KISS!!! =D

And that's the 3rd series now in this season, what actually surprises me more regarding this is we have more in this season than in the the previous seasons where we had actually shows that were in fact described as yuri =O

Now regarding the ep...

Exactly D= hell they went a bit too far with the original stuff! I supose considering the damn slow pace the author release one chapter i think they already had planned to not make any possibility for a 3rd season, if they had i doubt they would choose this path for the original content.

I think it was a good episode.

Spoiler:

The ending was really nice

Now, it's time for Higa to pay

cors8 · 2010-09-07, 12:13

I hope Chiho catches a break. She deserves it.

RX-78GP04G Gerbera · 2010-09-07, 12:39

I probably should say that Uzume, technically, is not "dead".

Currently, her status is simply "terminated" as in knocked out of the Sekirei Plan, and with a Level 4 critical state (5 being the highest, according to Matsu).

Hell, so far, we have yet to actually see any actual dead Sekirei besides, physically anyway, Yume. Otherwise, even the ones we see Karasuba and the Disciplinary Squad take out seemed to only be a Level 4 state from what we've seen...though, the way some lie on the ground in a pool of blood can definitely give off that "dead" impression x_x;

Irie · 2010-09-07, 15:04

I actually feel this was the best option for the story to move forward. It gets to the point you feel their isn't a single obstacle the north can't overcome. It also gives motivation and a determination to move forward. Something that just can't happen without some major event. I prefer uzume "leaving" the game over any of the other girls.

That being said, I also like uzume and felt the pain over her loss. I really did like her charactor and this was a major shock. It's time for Minato to "man-up" and show some backbone. Every event seems to motivate him for just a brief time like spent fuel. Like to see a permanent change starting with a little revenge on Higa. Last thing I want to see is the standard "begging for a favor" when he confronts Higa. Gaining honor by losing face kind of deal.

Yes of course you right. It's what I meant

Yeah I want him to punch Higa on the face or something like that

RX-78GP04G Gerbera · 2010-09-07, 15:36

Yeah, considering he should now have an idea on what kind of person Higa is and should know that simply asking/begging would get him nowhere except boosting Higa's ego and making himself look pathetically weak in Higa's eyes.

Kusa-San I'll end it before April. Join Date: Jul 2008	I think it was a good episode. Spoiler: Yes Uzume was killed but that's why this episode was good. We need some tragic moment like this in an anime. Futhermore, it was one of the obvious path for Uzume and until the last few chapter of the manga, I was excepting that too. But I would have prefred if she was fighting Kazehana and then was terminated by her. The ending was really nice Now, it's time for Higa to pay __________________ Last edited by Kusa-San; 2010-09-07 at 10:55.
