10 Second Anime - Ore Monogatari!! - Episode 5



Ai, Suna's older sister, comes to visit and reveals something major when she discovers Takeo is in a relationship. She decides to help Takeo understand Rinko better.

Eh?!

Suna's older sister Ai is in love with Takeo!?? I just needed to get that out of the way. We were barely introduced to her in a flashback sharing a funny moment about Takeo with her brother. As expected, she's absolutely stunning and turns heads as she walks down the street, just like her little brother does.

 

After I thought about it, it wasn't that surprising that she developed feelings for Takeo like Rinko did. Knowing him as a normal kid who's just bigger, it makes sense that she would accept him as part of her life like her brother did. She was already inside the gruff exterior of the big kid and appreciated his big heart and helpful nature. A little scene where seeing some lilies at a flower shop brought a smile to her face made it apparent that she has a Takeo story that sparked her attraction.

 

This revelation of her big sister love turning to something more made me laugh out loud because it used her total shock and devastation at the news of Takeo's relationship. That was good stuff.

 

 

Heh.

Uh oh. Rinko has a secret. I'm pretty sure it's going to be a big misunderstanding about Takeo not touching her until she's old enough and how she's a bad girl because she wants to be held. Takeo's pronouncement that "she has a pure heart," must feel like a dagger to a girl with, well, a pure heart.

Yowamushi Pedal - Grande Road - Episode 20



Midousuji and Imaizumi challenge each other for the lead of the race. "Break!" vs. "Move Over!"

Meh.

Great. Midousuji had to have one more "seal" removed to release his final form. Didn't need to see hot pants Grr-oss-uji from behind.

 

 

Heh.

Aw. Dead Kenobi version Naruko pushed Imaizumi along.

 

Hey, don't brag about Onoda when he's right there. He might get so embarrassed he'll stop pedaling.

 

Midousuji didn't like being reminded how Onoda broke through his bottlenecked peloton on the first day. This non-standard model is number 3 on the road.

 

We're getting a real close look at the racing styles of Midousuji and Imaizumi in their purest forms. Everything Midousuji does, all the underhanded stuff and the mind games, is to break his opponents so they get left behind, either physically or psychologically. Imaizumi's style is to lead the race so he can enjoy the silence. Everything he does, from finding impossible gaps to passing on the blind side, is to get in front or move his opponent over. It's "Break!" versus "Get out of the way!"

 

Bringing back the touring couple from Episode 7 in the first season was brilliant! There's only so many ways you can have flashbacks in this show, and experiencing them from the riders' perspective makes each one of them serious. But having the funny couple with the guy who's still trying too hard to impress the little lady recall the Sohoku guys on their first race was a great way to break the tension and have flashbacks showing how much they've grown without worrying we're looking at a death montage.

10 Second Anime - Yuri Kuma Arashi - Episode 2

Yuri Kuma Arashi - Episode 2

There's more bears at school than the transfer students. Another student gets eaten.

Second Thoughts.

I'm out. This show was less understandable the second time around. The transfer students Lulu and Ginko aren't the only bears at school, but they don't appear to recognize the other ones. Another bear "eats" another girl behind the same planter where Lulu and Ginko "ate" the first girl. Bodies, or whatever, can't be left in the same place all the time, can they? And another trial happened for Lulu and Ginko to "eat" Kureha, yet she wasn't eaten again, and a different bear was the one who was actually trying to eat her. Where was her trial? And this bear actually died, leaving a bear body. Gah, I don't know what's going on here. The symbolism and evocative images are overpowering any kind of coherent plot logic. That means I'll just have to watch this show for the sweet, sweet yuri.

10 Second Anime - Yuri Kuma Arashi - Episode 1

Yuri Kuma Arashi - Episode 1

Set in an all-girl school whose world's bears have been turned into intelligent man-eaters by an alien race of bears, two new students hunt for prey. Literally Lily Bear Storm. Season premiere.

First Thoughts.

My first thought was "wat?" Followed by "what did I just see?" Yuri (ユリ) is literally lily in Japanese, but is code for lesbians and a specific genre of otaku visual media. As I watched the show, with its depictions of alien bears transforming into humans behind anti-bear walls, I thought I almost saw a plot. But then that scene with the trial showed up, deciding whether the girl bears would be allowed to "eat" or eat the lesbian girl main character. Wat. So, this isn't a yuri show with flashy visuals like Mariaholic, or a show using its light premise as a vehicle for gags and *those* scenes like Sakura Trick. This is a crazy show which I don't know what it's doing yet. The lesbians are good. The bears are cute. I don't know what this storm is about. I'll have to see what my Second Thoughts are for the next episode.

10 Second Anime - Amagi Brilliant Park - Episode 3

Amagi Brilliant Park - Episode 3



Seiya's reign of terror begins by closing down the park. Viral marketing increases attendance slightly. Behind the scenes problems begin to come to the fore.

Heh.

No wonder this theme park is having problems. They close every Friday, and they don't even do any maintenance or improvements? It's like the entire park suffered from mass depression.

The staff members have been phoning it in for too long. Seiya's orders to extend park hours and actually work on Fridays and Holidays, which is when theme parks are supposed to make their money, is met with childish thumbs down.

Seiya's last suggestion, making everything free, is too short-sighted for just increasing attendance. Moffle speaks of artisans' pride in their work and the accountant says they have to pay their bills.
