Quick Picks: Log Horizon Ep 21, Kill La Kill Ep 19, Wake Up Girls! Ep 7, Wonder Momo Ep 3, Buddy Complex Ep 8, Witch Craft Works Ep 8

Log Horizon Ep 21: Everyone celebrate over the victory against the Goblin battles in the palace. However Shiroe didn't join the party and instead overhear a lady talking some children the adventurers stories.


But the lady is actually narrating everything that Shiroe did to save Rundel which got him suspicious of her however the lady disappeared into the darkness. Lenassia was asked by her grandfather to be an ambassador for Akihabara so as to strengthen ties between the two lands.


The adventurers welcome Lenassia to Akihabara however there was rumors going on around that Shiroe covered up the matter of them losing their memories if defeated which got Minori concerned. Some time passed and Marielle suggested to everyone that they should have an Autumn festival in the city...

Who is this mysterious lady and how did she know about Shiroe's spell to revive Rundel? I am guessing we have to wait further to find out who she is. Although some of the adventurers felt betrayed that Shiroe did not reveal the memory loss which is properly a sign of bad things to come in the future but for now the Autumn festival begins!


Kill La Kill Ep 19: Many Life Fibers started grabbing people and assimilating them, making them mindless soldiers. Maho got assimilated and Ryuko managed to break free from Ragyo but she is badly injured.


Satsuki detonate the whole school at a last desperate attempt and everyone caught in the explosion. A month later, the Life Fibers have already conquered all of Japan and Nonon managed to find Mataro and some survivors in the city. She brought them back to the Nudist Beach hideout which the Elite Four has joined forces with Mikisugi's forces.



Ryuko is still in a coma while Gamagori promise Mataro that he will rescue Maho. Meanwhile Satsuki is captured by Ragyo and she revealed her plan to create the ultimate Kamiu-Shira Kotetsu. Ragyo also deduced that Soichiro faked his death and rise Ryuko by changing his appearance and telling Satsuki that Ryuko is her younger sister.



A large group of Life Fibers appeared near the Nudist Beach and Gamagori used a new invention created by Shiroe and managed to free Maho from the Life Fibers. (With Guts the dog's help) The Life Fibers created a sound wave that disrupt everyone but awaken Ryuko from her coma. She destroyed the Life Fibers however she refuse to wear Senkentsu claiming she is now a monster...

The invasion began and the good guys are losing. Although it is nice to see the Elite Four joining forces with the Nudist Beach like how bad guys now joining up the fight with the good guys. Ragyo and Nui are creating the ultimate Kaimu which we will going to see it very soon but with Ryuko refusing to wear Senkentsu, is there any chance left for the human race?


Wake Up Girls! Ep 7: The girls debated on whether to carry on without Airi and after much discussion, Mayu and Nanase decided to talk to Airi while the others tried to change Hayakasa's decisions.


They found Hayakasa playing the UFO catcher machine and he told the girls to win seven dolls from the machine. Meanwhile Mayu and Nanase found Airi and after much talk and confession from everyone, Airi decided to return to the group. The others also managed to win seven dolls as promise.


Hayakasa surrender to them and Airi was allowed to stay. The next day, he arrived at the office and told the girls that they are entering the Idol Festival...

I think Hayakasa is testing the girls if they are able to take negative feedback and also their bond. Mayu and Nanase also confess about their true feelings with Airi which the three girls make up. The others also learned about teamwork while playing the game. So with Airi back and Hayakasa telling them they are to enter the Idol Festival, things are going to get tough in the next episode...


Wonder Momo Ep 3: Momoka was upset that Akiho called her a fake but Terashima cheered her up with ice cream crepies. Later, Momoka was confronted by the aliens again and battled as Wonder Momo.


But she wasn't strong enough when suddenly a mysterious person saved her-The original Wonder Momo who happened to be Momoka's mother...

The original Wonder Momo is back and voiced by Haruko Momoi. She also happened to be Momoka's mother which might explained why she is able to wear the Power Suit in the first place (DNA!) What will happen now with the original Wonder Momo returned? It is like knowing your parents' dark secret and they know your dark secret at the same time...


Buddy Complex Ep 8: Aoba find himself on a small island and Luxon is not working. He rescued Hina from her cockpit before she got drowned. Instead of thanking him, she tied him up and pointed a gun at him.


While the Zogailla forces searched for Hina and Dio and Fromm finding Aoba, he tried to explain to Hina about her in the past. However Hina did not believe any of his words. Suddenly a cave in happened and they are trapped.


Aoba told Hina to untie him and they worked together to dig out. Hina fainted due to lack of oxygen but Aoba move on. He hit a weak spot and water started gushing in. He saved Hina from drowning (again) which she thank him. Suddenly Luxon's radio was working and he gave Dio his location. He allowed Hina to call for her comrades which they received it.


Before Dio and Fromm arrived, Aoba gave Hina the hairpin which the past Hina has it. She took it and hide herself. Aoba left the island first as Hina spotted her team arriving to save her...

As expected, Aoba and Hina learned more about each other and I am guessing the hairpin was given by Aoba in this timeline so that when Hina went back to the past, she was wearing it. (A time paradox?) Other than that, it was a decent episode and who doesn't like to see Hina wearing just a singlet and showing off her cleavages?


Witch Craft Works Ep 8: During their first year in middle school, Kagari have her two followers, Kanae and Touko to accompany her school as instructed by Kazane. Kagari became popular in the all girls' school but she showed little interest in anything.


However she spent the first year spying on every school in the city, looking for someone. Finally she found the person who happen to be Honoka but Kasumi was sticking to him like glue....


Honoka woke up and now the Tower Witches have become part of the family. Kagari warned him not to use Evermillion's powers even if he want to use it. Later, the school was attacked by the school bully-Rinon who claimed that Honoka took advantage of the former student president and challenged him to a fight.


Honoka was instructed by Kagari on how to counter Rinon which he successfully overcome it (Although he nearly succumbed to using Evermillion's powers) But Kagari and the Tower Witches aid him and everyone in school respected him after that.


Although a week ago, Kagari have actually instructed the former student president to create this incident but it backfired which Rinon realised she was dumped....

It was interesting to see Kagari as a younger girl and back then, she was already popular. But her heart was looking for Honoka which she did find him although Kasumi was beside him. The second half was kinda of mess up with Rinon being dumped into fighting Honoka and everything is masterminded by Kagari just to raise Honoka's popularity. What a scheming lady Kagari is and the things she do for her lover. Although you do get a glimpse of how tempting Honoka want to use Evermillion's power in which the next episode, a new enemy arises...
