So, just watched episode 16. Up to the end, it was pretty good. Then all of a sudden Chiko is attacked, and my thought is. Oh god, not another lame ass white devil arc. Please, anything but more of that stupidity. If it goes that direction, I'll just quit watching right now.
Then of course she goes off with some random guy who claimed to be 20 faces teacher. Yeah, I know, shes young, and so by very definition, gullible and stupid. Ah well. I'll find out if this show is worth spending any more of my time on, in the next episode. To be honest though, this show has flashes of enjoyment, followed by great stretches of irritation. The best parts so far, were Chiko was with 20 faces, and the detective girls. Everything else, if you skipped it, you wouldn't miss out on a damn thing. That kinda speaks volumes about a show. |

Hey, guys. The delay on the releases of this show have primarily been coming in the QC stage. We'd certainly welcome any volunteers who want to join the Live-eviL QC team if you're interested.
It entails watching episodes before they are released to scan for errors. It's rewarding work and many of our full-time staff have started off as QCers. So if you're interested in breaking into fansubbing, or if you are currently involved with fansubbing, it could be a good opportunity for you. Requirements are: 1) Native-level skills in English. 2) Attention to detail. 3) Reliability and the ability to use irc and ftp (it's not that difficult). If anyone is interested, please come to #live-evil on irc.enterthegame.com and look for me or tlynnec and mention you're there for the QC spot. We have some other titles that are also experiencing delays in QC (including You're Under Arrest! Full Throttle, The Snow Queen, etc.) Thanks! -Tofu |

I wouldn't count Ken popping up randomly as an annoyance, but rather as stretching believability. The fact that hes always around. But then, its the same way with some of the other characters too. To a certain degree, the world seems to focus and revolved around Chiko.

Ep 19
You know, I feel a little bit cheated that she needed Ken's help to get out of that situation. She was doing so well by herself, and the chase scene had so much tension because she had no one else to rely on. That the thing was resolved by having Ken turn up at the exact perfect moment was a bit... disappointing. Edit:Yeah, an unfortunately believable depiction of mob mentality drove much of the drama in this episode.

Oops, triple post.
Spoiler for Ep22:
Nice ending to a good series. The last episode really puts a good end to it, reiterating the point that everyone has moved on and indeed, everyone is doing well. Will be really happy to see Hirano Aya getting a nomination for best voice actress for her part as Chiko. |
