Blood+ Episode 4 – Dangerous Boy

Another exciting episode of Blood+. More gets revealed as Saya gets closer and closer to awakening…

Spoilers:

If you saw the last episode, you’d have noticed that Kai ran off at the end of the episode. Apparently he was so angry, he ran home, took the gun and went searching for Forest, the one who attacked his father. Apparently the dad didn’t die, but there is a possibility he might be contaminated, which I’m guessing will happen since the story must continue and what better story than to have one where the daughter has to kill the father because he’s becoming one of them. Kai goes investigate and Saya, Rick, and Moe are always 1 step behind. Saya finally begins hearing stuff, and follows their calls. Rick for some reason begins to hear things too. In this episode, we learn that the mysterious man is named Haji and is Saya’s servant and only obeys her orders. So are Chiropterans vulnerable to bullets? Welp, guess you’ll have to watch the episode to find out!

Saber Marionette J to X Episode 1 – Phase 01: Civilization All Over the Place

Wow! It’s been so long since I’ve seen the original series: Saber Marionette J. This goes all the way back to 7th or 8th grade when I first got into anime. I remember watching Rurouni Kenshin and SMJ simultaneously and SMJ has always ranked within the top 5 animes I’ve ever watched. Now I remember why. I even got my sister to like this anime so much, her online alias derived from one of the main female characters Lime. Ah…. Lime, Cherry, Bloodberry. These names bring up so many good memories of the series. I can still clearly remember the 1st episode (or maybe it was the 2nd) where Lime was awaken inside the capsule and how just by touching her, Otaru started to make her heart (maiden chip) start to beat. Lime was the coolest one outta all the 3 in my opinion. She was impulsive and just fun. I can still remember when Hanagata (the guy apparently in love with Otaru) was cruising around in his new car and Lime just kicked it and his new car got crushed. I still remember having tears flow out at the end of the story because it was so sad…

Saber Marionette J to X actually came out a long time ago. 1998 to be exact. I had always wanted to watch it, but I never did get the entire series, so it was put off. I just watched the 1st episode of J to X and it’s awesome!

Spoliers:

So the story continues after the J and J OVA. The 1st human female has been saved and they are finding ways to start the mass cloning. Let me give you some background history. DO NOT READ THIS IS YOU WANT TO WATCH THE 1ST SERIES. Like Trigun, Earth no longer became sustainable, so several scientists set off on a journey to find a new planet to live on. However, for some reason, they only brought one female. During the journey, the computer on the space ship fell in love with the female scientist and shot out all the male scientists onto this new planet which seems hospitable. However, it would not let the female go. With only a couple men, how were they going to reproduce? They ended up cloning over and over again and later learnt how to alter DNA to get different looking humans. However, how many what they did, they were only able to create males. So they created marionettes (basically female looking robots) to do all the chores and house work. Skipping the major storyline, at the end, they managed to save the female from the spaceship. So back to this episode, Otaru is in charge of some festival. He has 3 marionettes that can express emotions because of the maiden chip. As you may have guessed, the 3 marionettes are named Lime, Cherry, and Bloodberry. In this episode, you learnt that Otaru is against adding foreign elements into their festival, but the others convinced him because due to changing times, we have to have new and improved stuff. Everything went well until Lime saw a notice that they were stopping the production of marionettes starting next month, because real human females were coming and they didn’t feel that marionettes were going to be needed much anymore. Personally, I thought it was a bit chauvinistic because they were expecting the females to continue to do all the robot chores, but what the heck, it’s an anime. Anyway, with all the changing talk floating around and now a notice that says marionettes are no longer needed, Lime felt really insecure about her place in Otaru’s heart. Is Otaru going to forget her? The story continues onward…

I was recommended this Black Cat series by maxxius. It’s turning out pretty good. All characters seem to have 2 faces, a serious one and a cute one. To put it in simpler terms, there’s these assassins and there’s these sweepers (bounty hunters) and when their paths cross, some interesting things happens.

Black Cat Episode 1 – Lonely Cat

Black Cat Episode 2 – Confused Cat

Black Cat Episode 3 – Cat In The Dark

Spoilers:

Only 4 episodes are out so far, and I’ve only watched 3. It starts off with a boy named Train. He has a scar on his neck that shows XIII (13). Rumor is he’s the best assassin Chronos has and has never failed a single mission. There seems to be another man that follows Train around and finishes up the dirty work that Train won’t do, such as finishing people off. Then we meet Sven, an ex-secret agent of some sort. He’s a “gentleman” and can’t stand seeing people getting bullied, especially women. A gangster runs for governor and wins. Sven wants to arrest him, but Train kills him before he can make a move. In the next episode, they introduce a new girl that’s also a sweeper like Sven. Train believes that guns were only meant for killing, this girl thinks otherwise. We don’t know much about this girl yet, but we know that she loves milk, leading me to think she’s the white cat that we see every so often around Train. Then we learn of Eve, a little girl with nanotechnology in her body that allows her to transform. Into what, I’m not too sure yet, but Eve’s boss wants to sell her as a biological weapon. Eve is still a little girl and doesn’t know much. Rin, a theif, meets up with Sven under a false name of Elena and asks Sven to help her rescue her sister, Eve. But Rin’s identity gets blown when Sven sees Train about to kill Eve. Train hesistates since she’s still such a small girl and the assassin attempt fails when the boss comes in. However, everyone escapes successfully. To test Eve, the boss instructs her to play tag, leading her to leave the building’s premises. Sven meets her at the park and was shocked. However, he learns that Eve is really innocent and she’s still learning. She hasn’t ever had the chance to even taste ice cream and falls in love with ice cream immediately. However, the boss’s men come and pick her up. Train gets questioned on what’s causing the delay for the assassin. Guess we’ll have to wait for the next episode to know what’s going will happen.

Bleach Episode 55

Yet another amazing episode of Bleach. Too much happened in this episode. Many war fronts started which means what will usually happen is the next dozen episodes will be jumping back and forth between these fights and it’ll take an age before this whole thing wraps up.

Spoilers:

So while Renji is running away with Rukia explaining to her why everyone is trying to help and that she needs to learn how to rely on others when she needs help, the fight between Ichigo and Byakuya has started to heat up. Ichigo seems to have also learnt flash step. Sui Fong, the 2nd captain, starts taking out the rebel lieutenants. The 13th captain (Rukia’ captain) wants to protect his subordinates, but the 1st captain (the old man) stops him in his tracks. The 8th captain (Nanao’s captain) instead takes the 13th captain and runs away. The 1st captain chases after them. So the 2nd captain continues trying to crush the lieutenants when suddenly Yoruichi (the cat woman) comes and drags the 2nd captain with her over the cliff. They seem to know each other. How? That’ll probably be explained later. The 4th captain (medicine lady) takes all the wounded back to the base hospital and treats them. We meat her bankai which seems to be this floating alien ray like creature which can heal people in it’s mouth/stomach. Then we jump back to the 1st, 8th, and 13th captain battle. The 1st captain apparently hid his fire soul slayer in his cane. The 8th and 13th captains were both his favorite students back in the academy, but he feels that they have both betrayed him beyond the point of return.

Can’t wait for episode 56!!!
