Kobato episode 5 and 6

Double review this week. First on Kobato and next, DTB. I have yet to watch DTB though I have the episode already. So, no spoilers please. On Kobato this time, the major plot begins to surface and it going to be about Sayaka-sensei. Knowing Kobato well, we are expected to see her intervene. On an unrelated note, Bokutachi no BLOG is the featured WordPress blog for “Darker than BLACK”, “Hetalia”, “Nyan Koi”, and “Letter Bee” tags. DTB is always a strong point for this blog and now, Hetalia adds up to it. More after the jump.

Can’t read a book? FAIL! Can’t read a picture book for kids? EPIC FAIL!

Darker than BLACK: Gemini of the Meteor episode 6

I know this comes in a little late but I can’t help it. Had my final exams for the past 2 weeks and I had to put this review on the backseat, despite this episode is the better one for the season. As predicted, Yin is alive though unconscious. Yet her lingering ghost suggests otherwise. And with special powers, Yin a.k.a. Izanami is the real deal of DTB this time around. That means BK201 is off the spotlight. More after the jump.

A brief family reunion.

Darker than BLACK: Gemini of the Meteor episode 5

Another plot added, this time, by the code name Izanami. This brings another question mark to this already mystery-laden story. Although things seem to pick up for the plot progress, this episode however felt more like a filler to me. No real development and the epilogue of Suou’s past did not help either. The only real progress to the story are the introduction of another contractor for Section 3, Michiru, and the first mention of Izanami. The rest are all about Suou, which makes me sad because Hei is no longer the central character of DTB. It felt that DTB Gemini is only an OVA instead of a sequel.

Not sure which is a better father figure: alcoholic Hei or obviously-not-human Pecha/Mao

Also, in the future, a poll may be included on the sidebar, probably on anime-related stuff. So please be informed of that (p/s: It’s gonna be picking your favourite animes).

[PV] Tsukiakari no Michishirube by Stereopony

It took me awhile to get a hang to this. I’ll admit it; I’m not such a huge fan of this song nor of Stereopony. I do however think that it’s better than their take on Gundam 00 OP, Namida no Mukou. DTB Gemini ED by abingdon boys school is better but the single is not out yet but I’ll post it up as soon as it is released. If you want the song, you can get the PV rip here. Cheers!

Darker than BLACK: Gemini of the Meteor episode 4

I need to remind myself that DTB Gemini only has 12 episodes. Yet the story just getting better and better by the episode. More new characters introduced though it seems that DTB is going back to its usual niche of having several filler characters and to mention that they’re back in Tokyo. Not sure if the FSB are at their tail but I can see that all the main players are in the story. So Hei is trying to train Suou into a formidable contractor while Misaki is trying to edge closer to the truth behind BK201, Section 3 and the Syndicate. More after the jump.

Mrs. Holmes got it all wrong
