Quick Picks: Majestic Prince Ep 5, Valvrave the Liberator Ep 4, Nakimo Ep 13 OVA, Aoi Sekai no Chuushin de Ep 3

Majestic Prince Ep 5: Izuru and his friends were outclassed against Team Doberman in a training exercise. Rin later briefed them that they will be working together to take out a Wulguru base the next day.

 

Izuru spoke to their leader, Randy and he gave Izuru some advices on how to be a leader. Randy also gave him a video to watch with Asagi and Ataru but instead he invited Kei and Tamaki along to watch and realised it is actually a porn video. (Kei punched Izuru in the face after that)

The teams arrived at the Wulguru base but it is heavily guarded. Team Doberman divert the Wulguru's attention while Team Rabbits arrived at a hatch. However it is too big for Tamaki's mech so Asagi stay behind while the other three entered.

They blasted their way through as they arrived at the core to detonate it however the bomb is damaged. Izuru gave the order for Ataru to fix it while he and Kei hold off the enemies. Ataru repaired the bomb and they quickly escaped before the base exploded. Randy praised Izuru for a job well done and called him a hero...

I was expecting some snobs from Team Doberman but they are pretty nice people. Randy's advices for Izuru is also a wake up call for him. For the last two missions, Izuru tried to do the impossible and not trusting his team mates. When the bomb is damaged, Izuru immediately take a stand and gave orders for Ataru and Kei and the mission was a success. Hopefully Team Rabbits will get better next time around. (Randy trying to score with Rin was hilarious and Izuru and Asagi commented that the actress in the adult video looked like Rin, I wonder...)

Valvrave the Liberator Ep 4: Shouko overheard the radio about Arus is planning to abandon them as they are outnumbered by the Dorssia fleet. Akira told her not to tell anyone about her existence.

L-elf want Haruto to join him in his revolution claiming they can create order in the galaxy. However he refused and tried to use Valvrave to drive away the Dorssia fleet. Haruto saw an Arus pilot trying to pilot the Valvrave but was killed by a booby trap. Figaro detained Haruto and told his plan of bringing Valvrave and him to Arus for study them.

Shouko plead with the student council that Arus is lying to them and they create a distraction for Shouko, Kyuma and Mecha nerd Yusuke to rescue Haruto. They found him and told everyone about Arus's plans. Figaro tried to escape but Haru piloted Valvrave and stop him.

L-elf appeared and told Haruto their situation hasn't changed and the Dorssia fleet have occupied most of the colony. Shouko came up an idea-to use Vavlrave as a bargaining chip for the two nations and the school become an independent nation of it's own.

No matter how many times I see it, Valvrave's face shot is bad ass!

Haruto sortie out and after destroying some grunts, he destroyed the connecting lines to the other domes and pushed the school dome into space. L-elf was amused by the turn of events and learned that Shouko is the Jior President's daughter...

Like I said before that Arus can't be trusted and they nearly got away with it. Thanks to Shouko and the others, the school now become a floating dome in space which I am thinking it is not a good idea. They will used Valvrave as a bargaining chip if Arus and Dorssia tried to take it but for the students in the school, they have to think long term if they want to survive this crisis. Shouko's idea is good but I could fore tell it won't last and I won't be surprised if the school get blown up at the end of the first season...(Valrvave is confirmed to be Haruto's mech and anyone tried to pilot will get his insides exploded...yipes!)

Nakimo Ep 13 OVA: Life is as usual for Shougo since Miyabi is now his sister. However Konoe and Rinka keep making advances on him in which Mei suggested that everyone take turns to go out on a date with Shougo and Miyabi is to judge who is allowed to be him.

Everyone including Mana and Ikusu also joined in the date and the first date is with Mana. The rest of the group watched from afar the date. Shougo started having delusions with him and Mana as a married couple.

Won't you drink with me, Ikusu?

Next was Mei and again Shougo is having delusions of her as his wife. Next is Ikusu then Rinka. Finally it was Konoe and she decided to have Miyabi to join them for the date. They ended up in a wedding cos play studio and "play" wedding couple.

Shougo and Konoe invited Miyabi to join in the photo shoot and she filled in between them. The rest of the girls want to have their photos taken with Shougo and ran towards him...

It has been a while since I watched Nakimo and it is nice to see the cast again for one more hurdle. I know this show isn't on everybody's favourite list but I like it like a guilty pleasure. I wished they could gave delusions on Ikusu and Rinka's future with Shougo and the last scene with Miyabi joining the couple in the photo shot was sweet. Other than that, there is really nothing much to talk about unless it has a second season on the works.

Aoi Sekai no Chuushin de Ep 3: While Gear found out that Alex is his father, Opal managed to take down D. Fisher after using the Eight way shots.

Alex told Gear to absorb his power before he died. He also told Gear about how he got his power by absorbing someone close to him years ago. Gear tearfully accepted his powers and went all out to defeat the Tatoland castle.

 

In the afterlife, Alex reunited with Gear's mother and she was the one who sacrificed herself to save him years ago. In the aftermath, Segata's triumph over Tatoland was heard all over the land and Gear is now nicknamed Blue Sonic...

Run, Gear, Run!!

So the legend of Sonic..oops, Gear begins and that nickname is really giving away. It was sad to see Alex died but it is a true fact that Alex represented a more simple time in the gaming world and Gear represent the future of gaming. We also get to see the rest of the lands like Taito's main ruler (Man, he is a pimp!), Capcom's Street Fighter and Enix's Yuusha. Hopefully we get to see them and many others in the future but for now, Gear began to run to the infinite horizon in this Aoi Sekai...

Quick Picks: Busou Shinki Ep 5, Chuni Byo Ep 5, Zombie Desu Ka S2 Ep 11 OVA

 

Busou Shinki Ep 5: The Shinki were excited about their trip to Okinawa with Rihito. However Rihito took the wrong luggage and the Shinki were left behind. They decided to go and find Rihito and began a road trip to Okinawa.

Along the way, they lost their way and their spare batteries. They spent the night in the woods and were almost attacked by wolves when a Military Shinki saved them. The Military Shinki gave them some batteries and directed them to the right direction.

Finally, they arrived at Okinawa and reunited with Rihito...

Compared to last week's episode, I thought the Shinki will have some adventures at Okinawa but instead it is more of a road trip to get there. Other than getting lost and rescued by the Military Shinki, this week is pretty mellow. But next week, the Shinki get involved in a hijack incident on the plane and have to battle a Terrorist Shinki.

Chuni Byo Ep 5: Rikka failed her last maths test and is warned by her teacher that if she doesn't buckle up in the next test, the club will be disbanded. Rikka suggested to wash the swimming pool to earn extra credits but backfired due to everyone playing around.

Lelouch Command You!

Yuuta decided to guide Rikka and promise her a cool email address for her cell phone. After getting the results (Rikka passed the paper), Yuuta gave her an address which Rikka thank him on his cell phone...

Rikka was too absorbed in her fantasies that it affected her results which I think most of us during our younger days experience the same problems too. Studies is important and everyone tried to help Rikka (With hilarious results) which I am guessing that they know the club will be disbanded if they don't do something. I think in their heart, they do enjoy their time in the club. Although Yuuta had to resort to "waving the carrot" to Rikka but it work in the end and Rikka did thank him. Hopefully she will realise fantasy and reality are two different matters...

Zombie Desu Ka S2 Ep 11 OVA: Orito challenged Haruna into selling items in a flea market. Somehow, the male customers were attracted by the various girls' cleavage which Ayumu used it to sell Haruna's items.

It's a miracle that Sara didn't eat Ayumu alive..

Ayumu accidentally drink a potion which turn him invisible and a magic necklace is sold by accident to one of the female students during the flea market. He went to find out who bought it and observed the girls having their physical exam.

At least I get to see Sera in her underwear (Yummy!)

However the invisibility wore off and he was caught by Takeo in the bluff. But she wasn't surprised and even offered her jacket to him. After getting the necklace back, Ayumu drank another potion by accident and now he could see through the girls' clothes which he got a beating by everyone...

This OVA is pretty all right with fan services from the girls and Ayumu got an eyeful seeing the girls in the physical exam. Although I suspected why Takeo don't feel a thing by Ayumu in the bluff, a normal girl will have freaked out. (Sara will eat him alive if she didn't have the physical exam) But that will be another story to tell and hopefully a new season in the future...

P.S: The latest episode of Smile Precure will return next Sunday.
