Nin nin! >D

First off, thank you for so much for the very kind comments in my previous entry. They've really cheered me up, and I'm doing okay now!

um, okay enough to write up a fangirly entry. |D

I'm catching up with some spring season shows. o/ Initially, I thought I won't be watching anything new, but I have poked my head around other people's blogs and found shows that look interesting. :D For now, I'm following Nabari no Ou, Soul Eater, Code Geass R2, and Kurenai.


I am completely hooked on Nabari no Ou. *A* It's that kind of series wherein everyone is awesome and/or crazy and even characters I don't particularly like have their moments. I guess it's very much like Baccano! for me in that regard. My favorites so far are Kouichi, Raikou and Miharu... but that might change when I get around to properly reading the manga.

Hm. Yoite, I didn't start liking very much, but he's so much ♥ when he's with Miharu. Raimei is plain awesome (I kinda wish I were more like her) and very refreshing as far as shounen female leads go. Shijima is as cute as she sometimes freaks me out. And Gau(uuuu~) is the most adorable thing ever! <3 I hope he'll come back in later chapters. ;;

... Hm. How I went on about characters other than my favorites is beyond me. XD

Pairing-wise, I really, really like Yoite and Miharu. These two are incredibly cute together, moe even, and it's interesting to see the effect they have on each other. Kouichi and Raimei also make such a cute pair lol abuse but I think I prefer them as close friends (So I ship them...... in a non-shippy way?).

The story's refreshing and interesting in that there's no clear distinction between good and evil. I ended up sympathizing for characters who were against Miharu and Co., and there are some pretty suspicious people who claim to be on Miharu's side. :/ Also, modern-day ninja and samurai is such an awesome premise!

And, whaa, Kouichi. D: I thought you were the most normal ninja schoolboy in the entire series and then you turned out to be something else altogether (His evil side revealed a few volumes back was also very unexpected!). Well, this certainly explains uh, his hair and all those seemingly random illustrations of him with birds.


Late, but. Code Geass = srs bsns?

OH YAY! You also like Kouichi x Raimei xD

I am not yet sure if I ship Miharu x Yoite, but they're indeed so cute when together =3

And oh I love Kouichi's different side. I still don't understand what's with his evilness and feathers though . . .but he's still damn cool xD

♥ I thought I was the only one!

I can't help but notice that Raimei doesn't know about Kouichi's sometimes evil side, though. She's conveniently been somewhere else whenever he channeled teh evil, and so far only Thobari-sensei and Miharu know about that side of his. :/

I hope Kouichi and Raimei would fight alongside each other sometime. And I'm curious to see how Raimei would react (if she'll even find out).

SPOILER:

Is the anime only up to thirteen episodes? That's ridiculously short! It could stretch out to twenty-six at least.

OMG!!! I'm loving Kouichi more and more xD I hope they do feature more stuff about him xD

I've heard the anime's upto 26 episodes. Not super confirmed. But I sure hope it's 20+ . . . 13 is just TOO short x_x
