Kanon - 21
All jokes aside, that was really depressing. I mean I knew it was coming but geez did KyoAni have to animate it SO detailed. Like geez they coulda added blood splattering and that would completed the guro effect. I also notice the theme of “car accidents” or “getting” hit by a car is common in many manga and anime. Is there some truth to this in Japan? Is Japan full of really shitty drivers or is the DMV in Japan so lenient that people drive cars without licenses and if they get caught the penalty is a couple yen?
Anyway I feel awful for Nayuki. If she wasn’t Yuuichi’s cousin, I’d probably pick her over Ayu. The whole incest thing is what makes me gag so that’s why I prefer Ayu. KyoAni’s Nayuki has won me over. I actually found her very annoying in the TOEI version but in this one I just wanna give her a hug. You poor poor gal.
Upcoming Attractions: Nayuki’s arc continues and perhaps the semi-conclusion to Ayu’s.
waste a whole episode on the bell test and NOT finish it? Is this what they call “padding the story with filler” to avoid the 2 year filler we had before? I guess that’s okay but I’m getting tired of seeing recycled stuff like Kakashi copying Rock Lee’s moves and showing tons of flashbacks of when they had the first bell test in episode 3. Oh and I finally checked the dictionary it’s “SHIPPUUden” 疾風 【しっぷう】 (n) squall; gale; hurricane;. So anyway the bell test continues from dusk till dawn. At the beginning it was all manga-esque with Sakura showing off her powers surprising both Naruto and Kakashi. Naruto also surprised Kakashi with a few Kage-bunshin tricks of his own. 
enjoyed this week’s episode. Maybe it’s because it lacked cock jokes and wasn’t fighting for 20 minutes. They show Hiwatari’s past and how him and Bravo were on a mission where everyone got destroyed and they were only able to save 1 girl. Coincidentally this girl looks like a younger version of Tokiko. Coincidence? I think not. Anyway Hiwatari blows his flamer attack on to Kazuki’s gang but Bravo sacrifices himself and throws his steel armor to protect them instead. After this Kazuki is shown crying inside Bravo’s coat with Tokiko. 
many episodes this drama is? I’m throwing a number out here but I think it’s 11? Anyway now that Ryouko knows that Hanazono Yuriko are the 4 guys she immediately goes to bitch out all her problems onto them. She tells them that she lost her marriage because of them. When she’s done she snaps out of her rage and apologizes and leaves. However, before leaving, Satoshi comes out and apologizes one more time. She then grabs his shirt and cries into it…right in front of Kayo who was coming into the office. 
I thought this episode may provide some kind of resolution or any kind of plot movement, it made a full circle back into where it started from: absolutely nothing. I think those of us still bothering with this show are only doing it because “hey I’ve sat through 20 episodes of this crap and I wanna know who the hell he’s gonna end up with.” (Even though all signs point to Sayuri.) So like at the beginning he totally rejected Mina & Tsukasa and I was like “Whoa maybe we get something going here!” Then he was all depressed and so Sayuri took the lead step and asked him to walk home together. After their chat on the way home, he also had a man to man talk with Inukai. (And by man to man I mean Inukai almost punched him in the face.) It filled Riku fulla happiness and he apologized to Mina & Tsukasa and everyone lived happily never after. The only “small” progress was when Riku’s friends misunderstood thinking that he likes Sayuri and how he should confess to her (they suggested he write a letter.) Other than that it was like the week before but instead of emo Mina it was emo Riku.
