Da Capo II SS - 01

Opening Sequence:

OP: “Sakura Amaneku Sekai” by yozuca*

Now I’ve listened to a number of yozuca* songs since being a fan of the Da Capo series, yet this one sounds fairly different. It doesn’t seem to have that Da Capo feel to it all, but I’m sure after a few episodes I’ll probably end up loving it like the rest of yozuca*’s songs. And just as expected from the OP sequence, looks like the series focus is definitely on Otome and Yume.

Hayate no Gotoku! Eyecatches

With the end of Hayate no Gotoku season 1, I figured it would be nice to do the exact same thing I did for Bamboo Blade and release all the eyecatches for episodes 1-51. Just like Bamboo Blade, these are screen capped from the 720p raws, but since there were so many I didn’t bother editing any of them, so they’ll come as is.

Hayate no Gotoku! - 52

With this being the last episode of Hayate no Gotoku, I had no idea what to expect as the ending of episode 51 ended on a pretty good note. But once again, the series has proved to go beyond my expectations and delivered an episode that places a smile on my face at the end of it. This episode we have Hayate, Nagi, and Maria off in Greece taking a holiday and Hayate tries to convince Nagi to play outside. Of course Nagi being Nagi, she eventually agrees to do so and this sets it up for the plot this episode.

Kanokon - 01

Opening Sequence:

OP: “PHOSPHOR” by Miyazaki Ui

Opening theme I find to be alright, but nothing that is catchy or anything, but the OP sequence does showcase to us a lot of characters that’ll appear throughout the series though I’m not sure if that’s a promising thing.

Figure Gallery: Futari wa Purikkyua! (We are Pretty Cure!)

It’s very rare for figures to come as pairs. Sure enough you have the series, but pairs of figures make it more special than say a set of 6. The pair always share a special kind of bond that makes them a whole whether they are fighting for justice, a romantic couple, or even a comedy couple. In essence, you can’t have one figure without the other, and here is a good example of that: Cure Black and Cure White of Pretty Cure.

Hayate no Gotoku! - 51

This episode reminds me why we all loved Hayate no Gotoku from the start of the series, and that is Hayate getting into all sorts of problems and seeing his uncanny abilities to scrape through them. It’s kind of good that they brought back in the plot that Hayate has the 150 million yen debt as it certainly seems that we’ve forgotten about it throughout the series as well as bring back the pendant that Hayate received from Mikaido. Though I don’t find it surprising how it was Mikaido testing Hayate with his loyalty to Nagi and I’m sure that part of the story will continue one day.

Bamboo Blade Eyecatches

Over the course of the series we see an eyecatch just after the Preview. Do you normally call the eyecatches? Well since I was downloading the 720p raws I figured it would be nice to have them all in one post and here they are:

If you want the 1280 x 720 versions you can download the ZIP here. A select few I had to edit due to the watermark so you may see little left over bits that I missed. But hey, I’m not expert on Photoshop, so don’t expect too much. Hope you’ll enjoy these. Download the RAR file here.
