While trying
to find a god damn upload of this episode, I ran into some videos of people playing the game. So I randomly clicked on one and less than a minute in, it occurred to me that Yume looks like she’s 12. I have to say I’ll give the props to the anime team for making everyone at least LOOK their age. The only character who I feel looks better in the game than the anime is probably Koko. I feel she looks kinda buff in the anime but cuter in the game. Yume looks 12 and everyone else’s head just looked incredibly deformed to me during the dialogue scenes. It was so revolting that any desire I had (which was low to begin with) to even try the game out pretty much jumped out the window. This week’s episode was only awesome because Jyuunichi ran us down memory lane of the original Da Capo and talked about “girls being able to read minds who sing well”, “a girl who loved bananas”, “the sisters who ate nabe” and “cats who turn into human girls”. Ahh thank you Jyuunichi, you’re the only thing saving this for me from the brink of total doom.

Just a couple songs from Japan to keep you festive this Sunday.
In other news, Sen no Kaze ni Natte is finally out of the top 50. Let’s hope it stays that way.

I think
it’s about time I dropped this show. Well, I have to admit I actually laugh at lot at the arcs with Usami and Misaki episodes, but like this week focused on Hiro and that other dude..and it was SOOO emo and stuff. It’s just something I guess you’d have to like BL to actually enjoy and well I’m finding myself “meh”ing over it. Basically the other dude comes back from America and Hiro is all tsuntsun that he didn’t send him any letters until the end. He then even goes as far as changing his phone # and moving just so that guy can’t come after him. In school he tries running away but he’s all like “oh noes if he grabs me again I’ll be seduced into buttsecks..even though I really want it”. Yea so Hiro-tan is all tsuntsun but he totally wants it, which is a big eyeroller to me. At the end of the credits they showed that Misaki spilled udon all over Suzuki-san and now became the replacement for Usami to molest at night for 2weeks.

This
week basically follows volume 5 beginning with the arc about Yaya and why her shugo chara is a baby. Basically she’s just an immature brat who can’t get over the fact that now her little baby brother is getting the parents’ attention instead of her. On the other hand Amu was able to pick up on this early on making her extra cool and spicy in my book.
I thought Yaya would show us her transformation this week but maybe I’m jumping ahead of myself. Next week they’re going to cover Rima and her “bara bara balance” routine.

So if you
think we’re getting resolution to the “wtf’s” instead we’re getting more wtf’s to add to our already growing list. This week features the fact that random people who “went missing” years ago are now coming back…but in the bodies of different people. In this case, Takurou’s father comes back in the form of a young woman. Imagine the look on Takuro’s face when some chick runs up to him going “I’m your father, you’ve grown so big!”
