Kaguya-Sama: Love Is War S2E4: "Ai Hayasaka Wants Him to Fall for Her"
Less than two minutes into this episode, and I'm already terrified.
Kill Six Billion Demons III: "Seeker of Thrones" (finale)
White Chain will teach her to smash the enemy, and Cio will teach her to smash pussy. The training montage is going to be interesting.
The Medusa Chronicles Chapter 1: Encounter in the Deep (parts 2-3)
=So far, my verdict on this book is "wake me up when the talking chimps are back."
The Medusa Chronicles (prologue)
I'm sort of wryly amused by this being a near-utopian optimistic vision of the future, but almost everyone in it being such an asshole. Climate change reversed, ecosystems restored, humanity unified under a democratic government, colonies on Mars, but you can't go a page through it without wishing Howard really did have built-in missile launchers he could use on these twats.
Kill Six Billion Demons III: "Seeker of Thrones" (part twelve)
Mammon's power word of "Tower" is finally living up to its Tarot card namesake.
Kaguya-Sama: Love Is War S2E2: "People Want to Do Things"
It's too bad there are still two seasons left to go; if not for that, I'd think "Kaguya dates Miyuki's sister" would be a clever subversive ending to the story, assuming that Miyuki gets a satisfying ending of his own to complement it.
Kill Six Billion Demons III: "Seeker of Thrones" (part eleven)
I actually thought she was shooting a laser beam out of her left nipple-spikes before I realized it was the handle of her energy-axe. Oh well.
Kaguya-Sama: Love is War S2E1: "Holy Fuck You Thought the Last Episode Title Was Long Just Get A Load of This Absolute Leviathan of Text"
I get that the episodes are named after the manga chapters that they're adapting, but once you're mashing four or five of them together without any truncation I think you might need an intervention. Seriously, how are people even supposed to refer to these episodes?
Fate/Zero S2E12: "Fate/Zero" (continued even more)
So, that's that. Fate/Zero is not good. It looks better than it is if you squint from a certain angle, but even that falls apart once you hit the finale.
Fate/Zero S2E12: "Fate/Zero" (continued)
I mean, is anyone surprised at this point? Anyone at all? Even a little?
Fate/Zero S2E12: "Fate/Zero"
I see the words "Fate/Zero," and I have an immediate, positive emotional response because of how long I spent mostly liking it. It only takes a second for my mind to catch up to where I am right now, and I just feel this crushing dissonance that almost makes my head spin. I've seen other shows whose quality fluctuated massively from season to season, but in this case the story was adapted (very closely) from a single book by a single author.
Kill Six Billion Demons III: "Seeker of Thrones" (part ten)
He thought immortality would be easier for his species than it is for humans, and he was mostly right. Mostly.
Fate/Zero S2E11: "The Last Command Seal" (continued)
So, I guess Iri really did just get killed off with zero fanfare a couple episodes ago, then? That was the most dismissive treatment of almost any named character in this entire series.
Fate/Zero S2E11: "The Last Command Seal"
This demon is a goddamned joke. No fucking wonder it still hasn't gotten free after all these Grail Wars.
Kill Six Billion Demons III: "Seeker of Thrones" (part nine)
...I'll leave it up to my readers to decide what this says about our heroine's sexuality.
Fate/Zero S2E10: “the Sea at the End of the World”
Well gee Arturia, I don't know. How COULD he have become Berserker? You don't think that maybe somebody summoned him into that role, do you?
