Arika-hime! ???(??`)??? ???(??`)??? ???(??`)??? ???(??`)??? ???(??`)???

Bastards, that whole bloody council. All of ‘em!

Arika-hime! ???(??`)??? ???(??`)??? ???(??`)??? ???(??`)??? ???(??`)???

Goddamnit Nagi! That might be the ‘proper’ choice but is it the ‘right’ one?

Arika-hime! ???(??`)??? ???(??`)??? ???(??`)??? ???(??`)??? ???(??`)???

God, Arika-hime’s story is more heart-wrenching than I thought. I find it truly saddest that people misunderstand good intention and sacrifice of others for the gain of their own self-deceit and glory.

Nagi better save Arika-hime in a Crowning Moment of Awesome next chapter!

*Sigh* It’s gonna be stuck in my head for days now. Hitotsu~? hitotsu~? hitotsu~? hitotsu~?

Seriously, whoever hasn’t watched this charmingly delightful show should really do it now. I personally can’t wait for the OVA to come out next Spring. Hurr

A.K.A the Wish OVA.

Seriously, they just did this episode so that they could animate Wish proper, amirite CLAMP?

Also, plot. Moving very fast. Ushagi-san appeared this episode already lolwtf. I have to say, they are creepy as fuck. Hell, even their BGM sounds eerie too.

Tomoki is a man amongst men. This episode pretty much speaks for itself. Man… just when I thought they couldn’t top the manga… they did it again. Goddamnit. I’m glad pantsu robot made it in to the anime.

BTW, Mikako is evil but exceedingly hawt at the same time. Goddamnit.

Looks like Nymph is gonna make her appearance next episode. Expect sudden changes of atmosphere.

FUCK YEAH, NAGI.

Jumping in to a valley full of man-eating beasts where magic can’t be used to save the woman he loves…. if this isn’t a Crowning Moment of Awesome, nothing is.

Fuck yeah Rakan and co., kick those bastard’s asses!

Haha, nice headbutt, Nagi.

He finally said it.

Yay, more Noto-sama/Nogizaka-sama! This show is pretty much a guilty indulgence for me since it’s unabashedly a Noto-sama otaku-attracting vehicle, but whatever the heck eh? No need to justify so much to others if you really like it.

Well, despite that, I’m not mindlessly in love with the show either. For one thing, CENSORSHIP FAIL is fail.

Funny to see Mika getting the reverse end of the sekuhara though.

Also, I lol’ed at that in-universe Lacrosse anime where the heroine’s played by Noto-sama as well and Yuto comments on how similar the seiyuu sounds like Haruka, Oh geez, what’s with all the meta-jokes this season?

Liked: For Noto-sama
Watching: For Noto-sama.

An interesting email came to me via reader rynstone, who informed me that there’s a dedicated group of Elfen Lied fans who are trying to a Lilium music box, a very important memento of Lucy in the Elfen Lied series.

The group has managed to persuade Sankyo, a Japanese company, to make the music box mechanism but it requires a one-time project fee of USD 670 + about USD 7 per mechanism to produce and they are looking for fellow fans or kind donators to contribute to the fee.

Personally, I think this isn’t a bad undertaking and it does result in very interesting piece of merchandise. Fellow Elfen Lied fans can visit their website/forums at http://stromnova.webs.com/ to register and find out how to donate.

Interested fans can also directly email Mr. Jarrod Pierce at liliumbox@gmail.com to get more clarification on the project.
