Blah so last week I was hoping that this week they’d dig deeper into stuff about Sakura’s past but the “aliens” basically wiped out all thoughts she had of it. Wait so what now? Are they gonna just throw it on the backburner until like episode 9 or something? The only pleasant surprise was that this week the first time Sakura was “wrong” but then was right the 2nd time. The sap story this week is the daughter killed her father because he left their mother when she was young. Also I LOLed at the alien otakus who threw water balloons at the lady because she wanted to cancel their little alien convention.

So about the only thing I look forward to in this show is the time Udagawa spends at Sakura’s house with Sakura’s sister being all like “come on oneechan this is your future husband. Now I will leave the young couple alone to themselves” You go girl! LOL. As usual the criminal was pretty predictable. The twist was that she killed the guy because he threatened to post naked pics of her if she decided to leave his stage troop to get a role as a movie actress. Lesson of the day ladies, don’t let anyone (even your lover) take naked pics of you because they will always be used against you! At the end they showed a bit more of Sakura’s childhood flashback. Hopefully they’ll start going into that within the next few episodes.

Upcoming Attractions: Aliens.

Pardon my french, but what the fack? I mean Persona’s been pretty bizarre as of lately anyway but this was like 1 huge acid trip or something It started with Jun having telepathic conversations with Ayane, the girl with the pink hair who always appears to Persona users surrounded by a buttload of feathers. For some reason, she had Jun’s book and she and Jun became a bit “close”. Ironically enough Jun says “with her I can be alone” and she says “with Jun I’m not alone”. Wtf Continue Reading »

Eh well same setup this week. The only thing that amused me was how Sakura managed to randomly insert herself into a gossip between girls and they didn’t notice until the end and were like “wait…who are you?” and she’d do her “I’m the new 17 year old transfer student hehe!” Also this week the murder happened by accident…basically the teacher was jealous of her “lover” teacher because of a rumor she heard about him getting it on with a student lol. I also liked the “Sandy” whose “Father is American” and her part time job was being a gravure model lol. No other development otherwise, I have a feeling we may not see any until maybe eps 7 or 8.

Upcoming Attractions: Udagawa & Sakura go to solve crime at the beach.

A really nice emotional episode this week focusing on Megumi and her family. Basically since she’s been staying with the school dorms she doesn’t see her parents that often. She’s also been adopted so she is not blood related to her mother. (Someone correct me if I’m wrong.) She once had a brother named Tomoya who died in a car accident that her family got in. Everyone but him survived because Megumi who as a loli could use her persona, used it to protect them but did not manage to protect him. Continue Reading »

…sucked but at least Naruto’s hair looks great because he uses Herbal Essenses!

So finally the movie that was hyped last year is out and I guess it’s too late for me to fangirl about it, as all I have left for Naruto is incredibly contempt and awful sarcasm. Oh well that should make this blog entry somewhat amusing to read. Continue Reading »

I was hoping it wouldn’t come to this but it almost appears to be like a cookie cutter setup for this drama in a similar way that it was setup for Yukan Club. A mystery happens, the heroes solve it, they good off in the process, end of episode. It’s become quiet apparent that the first woman that Udagawa falls in love with is obviously the criminal. I guessed it right from the start and I was right. The difference was that in this episode her “murder” was justified because she did it because the guy she killed wanted to sell her father’s business…and everyone is okay with this. If this was America she’d still be sent to jail, whether or not her crime was justified. I mean what are they gonna do, blame the dead guy? Anyway I hope the show moves in to focus on Sakura and Udagawa (or both? ) because I don’t know if I wanna sit through another 11-12 episodes of “you’re not the criminal are you? oh wait yes you are”.
