Now I know this is only an anime, but seeing how stupid everyone in a class can be is kind of ridiculous. I have some friends who were pretty stupid during high school but not to the point of where they couldn’t understand anything of a math problem. And my impression of a Japanese schooling system should be of a pretty high standard in terms of quality to ensure most people can see some kind of logic in the problem. That aside, the stupidity of the class did bring about some laughs. Especially stuff like Jinko’s little outburst and the whole class begging Kotoko to ask Naoki to tutor them.

This episode would have to be one of my favourites so far as it covers the puppet show as this is one of the best events earlier on in the game. Though when I played the game, I had a pretty good understanding of the storyline but watching it anime form is still pretty good on it’s own. Having Otome take on Sheryl’s role was just so awesome especially seeing her all nervous. But Yoshiyuki did well in reminding her that they are one together and it calmed her down. Though Otome cried during the play, it makes me wonder if Yume knows more than she’s letting on.

Throughout the first half of this episode, I thought we’d get something pretty standard where girls learns to cook for her loved one. But if anything, this episode taught me not to expect anything from this series as it dropped an absolute bombshell, and not in a good way. Seriously just as I thought Lala was going to make something for Rito, 3D octopus aliens! Of course given that this series focus is fanservice, I could see what was coming and I just sat here going through whilst diverting my attention to other things until the ending credits.

The journey in ARIA may be over for a lot of us, but it’s definitely a new beginning for many to come. This is something that I was hoping for and it’s finally here. ARIA has been licensed. Of course it’s not just the first season, ARIA The Animation, but it includes ARIA The Natural, ARIA The OVA ~Arietta~, and the third season ARIA The Origination. Oh happy days~~
One of the bets things about the news of this release is that TRSI will be releasing this as a complete boxset rather than individual volumes but as well as only having Japanese audio track and English subtitles. I must say this is certainly good news as I’m sure I wouldn’t be able to handle hearing an English dub of my all time favourite series. The first boxset will be released in September 2008, luckily it’s after my Japan trip, but now that I know there is a US release inbound, it makes me wonder if I should still buy the Japanese DVDs.
So once again, I shall make the trip to Neo-Venezia this year, thank you TRSI and Nozomi Entertainment.

Being a long time Kanon fan, it certainly has brought me a long way in my otaku lifestyle, but for a long long time I have waited for Kanon figures to come out and that was answered back when Kotobukiya released Ayu and Nayuki. However there was something missing from these figures that make them outstanding, something that makes them really special enough to rock my burning passion for anything Kanon. That is of course until the arrival of Kyoto Animation version of Kanon is where it really kicked off, and along came Max Factory to bring us Tsukimiya Ayu. Hit the jump to check out the rest of the photos.

Its time for summer vacation, but unfortunately for Kotoko, she has supplementary classes. I can only imagine the pain of having to attend school during your holidays since nothing like that happens here in Australia, well as far as I’m aware. Anyway its not all that surprising to see Kotoko and friends, or what seems like almost the entire F-class attending supplementary classes, as it goes how pretty dense some people can be, and it seems Yuuki thought this was a prime time to do his summer vacation diary thingy to cover the epic stupidity of Kotoko.

There is rarely a time where I’m sitting here watching an anime series that makes me turn into some kind of moé blob. Though with this episode, I’d say I was about halfway there. After last episode’s surprise detour to Anzu’s route, we’re once back on track with the Asakura sisters but this time we’re focused on Otome. Already we’re looking into the past and promises that were made so I can only think that we’re definitely heading into Otome’s story first.
