Well, even though I titled this 20 & 21, this will probably end up being entirely about Ami. The strength and power of Toradora really shows when a character I despised after her introduction in episode 5 is now my favorite character in the series. Take note, upcoming anime series, Toradora is an example of doin it rite!
Finally, the drama bombs are beginning to explode and we’re about to see the fallout that follows. Ah, delicious drama, it’s so much better when you hate almost all the characters involved, because that way the worst can happen and you can happily laugh along.
Well, Shuffle starts out pretty normally. In fact, almost too predictably, even as far as harems go. Guy lives with childhood friend, childhood friend takes care of him day in and day out. And then harem appears and wreaks havoc on everything.
Well, since I couldn’t really motivate myself to post about episode 5 when it aired, I’m going to combine it and episode 6. Really, there’s not a whole lot to talk about, but I’ll see what I can do.
Well, damn, finally things are getting in motion. I didn’t even post about the last episode because it was so freaking dull, so you’ll have to excuse me if this post ends up being tl;dr.
Well, now I think I realize why I dropped To Aru Majutsu no Index in the first place. It feels like not enough happens in just one episode. Before I knew it, this episode was already over. I want MOAR :|
Well, I said a while back, after episode 6 that I was dropping this, but I didn’t last very long with that. Although, I am glad I stopped when I did and then just slowly collected episodes until I got the urge to watch again. I can’t even really remember what it was that made me want to watch a few episodes again. I can probably chalk it up mostly to boredom, but I don’t know why specifically I wanted to watch Index when I’ve got so many other series already finished and downloaded. I suppose it helped that going back and watching it, I was mentally prepared to have my awesome fight scenes interrupted by five minutes of technobabble. Perhaps knowing that it was coming made it easier to stomach, I don’t really know.
Well, I finally got around to watching the first season. I wasn’t ever intending to watch it, but curiousity got the best of me in the end.
Ugh, I finally got done with Heaven’s Feel. This is without a doubt my least favorite route. But it did have times when it shined. Shirou got to be pretty GAR at times and hell even Rin was kinda GAR at the end (that was pretty fucking hot).
Wow, I honestly can’t remember the last time I wrote about Toradora. I probably haven’t posted about it since around episode 14, when the festival ended. I didn’t really like Kitamura’s arc and I’ve kinda been lazy about posting about Toradora, because honestly I have trouble finding words for it. But, I’m going to try to change that now. It will probably all end in failure, as I’m pretty terrible at analysis. Also, I’m starting this at 1 in the morning, which means this entire post has the potential to be totally incomprehensible. In the worst case, it’ll end up with me rambling on and on without actually saying anything of consequence. But still, for some reason I feel compelled to write about Toradora and I won’t be able to sleep unless I get this out of my head anyway, so I may as well get it all out now. Plus I’m getting a weird high off of listening to the OP/ED on repeat.
So, it never really occurred to me until now, but since Minori can’t see what’s in the handbook, she must be thinking that what they’re referring to is that Taiga loves Ryuuji. Yes, I’m just realizing that now, shut up and leave me alone. But then this makes Ami’s comment about guilt seem somewhat misplaced.
