Being Kiritsugu sure is suffering, lol. His past is just about as grimdark as I was expecting it to be. Best moment for me was when Natalia said, "That's a shitty reason for killing your own father." Story of Kiritsugu's life.
Don't have much to say this time around, except that you can really see the Kara no Kyoukai in this episode. There was even a special cameo at the end. :3
Other stuff:
- This week's episode of Legend of Korra was incredibly meh. I was okay with all the teenage drama at first, but it just spiraled out of control in the second half. Yeesh. Hoping for a return to plot next week.
- On the other hand, this week's ep of Sakamichi no Apollon was reallllllllly good. I quite liked the flashback and the jam session at the end was really well done. I was also really impressed by the overall lack of Engrish. Bravo.
I'm hoping I'm not the only one who finds the bromance in Apollon so much more interesting and heartwarming than all the love quadrangle stuff? I swear, I'm not even BLing out or anything! It's just nice that, for once, a strong friendship isn't portrayed as being totally secondary to a romantic relationship. :)
