.. .*ponders*

... if taiki never returns, then that might be against the will of tentei, so he'll shitsudo and die... and a new ranka will appear...

or some such.

who here doubts he means 'En-Oh'? and not Enho?

=^_^=

"what's this? don't tell me you're seeking for a bride now!" - Enki.

you get the feeling that sugimoto will be rather prominent in the continued taiki arc..

I wouldn't mind so much if the main character of the rest of the series was atleast someone who we've met before..

'this marked the beginning of Nakajima Youko's story..."
... later... "I realized my story ...

on Kantai... he and Shoukei work very well together.

just a thought.

I think Youko and Rakushun work more than well together as well.
if he'd only get more comfy with his human body. otherwise I could forsee some trouble ahead =^_^=

- reckless.

given that it's the beginning of the arch...
I'm guessing we're 'about' to find out. =^_^=

my guess is, considering the last thing that Rokuta said, that whatever he's done will have a *really* high price.. and that he'll have to accept that.. (and have later on) ...
once you accept your own fate ...

I rememebered the name of the youma and thought... wait.. didn't shinkun call his youma friend Rokuta too?
wait^2 ... wasn't shinkun's voice, eyes and haircolour exactly the same as this boy/guy's?

hmmmmm *stressfull mental activity* it IS shinkun!
niiice..

I was wondering how they'd explain him ...

also... earlier someone asked her what kind of person Koukan was (I think Keiki asked) ... she remarked that she didn't know, cause when tehy met while she was battling the false emperor, he was kneeling the whole time so she couldn't see his face, (and thus.. she couldn't get a feel for what kind ...

also .. "Dance Dance Revolution"

mat on floor, dance on mat in sync with music/game.

sorta...
then there's Death Death Revolution too, of course *grins*


- reckless angel.

yah... this episode felt a loooot longer than the others..

cause it missed the opening and the ending theme (well, kinda).

I'm very pleased with this episode. =^_^=
a perfect chapter ending, really.

not as easy to pull off, as it seems

cheers,

- reckless angel.

yeah... the whole part where youko reveals her true self to them just makes me cringe..

and the dialog is so great too... it could have been the best moment in the whole of Juuni Kokki (aside from Taiki and the Toutetsu)... but the art really sucks... so the whole sequence falls flat on it's face ...

... from what I can tell.. the nazi's tilted the swatstika 45degrees...

(presumably since turning it upside down doesn't do much... except make it mirrored, which most people wouldn't notice anyway) ;)

anyway...
the swastika itself is still pretty much defiled.. since most beings who live on this ...

wait.. right... I forgot the advisor took Youko hostage.

heh. my bad.

sudden reversal: now I haven't the faintest what that image means..
**goes back to re-watch episode again* =^_^=

said the *reckless* angel.

my guess is that they wanted to limit the people who had influence on Youko's descisions... thus, the advisor was the target. to either kill her, or to put her in jail...

youko might've realized now that the advisor was a good person.

perhaps?

still... *very* fast release this =^_^=

said the ...

**sighs**

Taiki...
that's story-arc I love the most. ... I just hope my anticipation-level doesn't rise too far.


... speaking of which... Shinkun.. I LOVE that image you have there =^.^=



said the Reckless Angel.

Distance is to Love as wind is to fire... it extinguishes the small and enkindles the great.

so there.

said the Reckless Angel.

well... atleast now it's been explained in understandable translated japanese that pretty much many of the ministers are corrupt. :\

I was thinking at the beginning, when she and we were first introduced to all of the ministers that... well...

"she should just get rid of all of them right now and ...

sou desu ka? sore wa Youko no namae ka na...


eeerg. not good enough for this yet. :P

okey.. then that bit made a little more sense,yes. and he probably wrote some notes down while listening to the story..

also, sugimoto was around the emperor when she was taking back her country.
he might've ...

Secondly to whoever in irc pointed out that naruto recaps were better than JK ones.. bah.

I actually don't lie when I say that that is as much an explenation as you would need for that ;)

sure, ep 26 of naruto was a little fun. but otherwise.. it gets mighty repetetive. :P
especially since some ...

except when she's taken back kei, Sugimoto asks where Keiki is.. and Youko answers: "he can't come near me right now".

because she's got some blood on her clothes.

- lei

perhaps it's only human blood?

(taiki had a nasty cut on his forehead when he came back to Wa... but it didn't seem to affect him that much either)..

also, what kind of creature was it that got its blood removed and splattered all over Keiki in the beginning? youma? normal animal?

- lei

you also see in episode 5 how bad it is for Kei before Youko comes ... back?

no vegetation, nothing but rocks and dust..
after youko comes back, it gets a lot better.

-lei

I think you may be confusing Enki with.. well.. Enki =^.^=

first off, Enki's ranka was swept off by a shoku, got born in Wa...

then they found him after I guess around 8 or so years (I don't know how to judge an anime characters' age)

... then he got taught by the sages for I suppose quite a ...

hehehe, my download of ep 12 was corrupt.. and skipped around two minutes.. those two minutes being when the hinman leaves =^.~=

didn't see the whole thing until yesterday (some time after I posted that)

- lei

"red alert! captain to the bridge" - "sorry number one, I'm on the loo... could you wait a minute?"



anyway... on Kei... I just kinda get the feeling that Youko isn't being told the whole picture and that because of many reasons, she's not really in control of her own country. that being said ...
