Welcome To Demon School Iruma-Kun Episode 12
This week's episode was all about the hunt for the perfect Battler aka club! I think it's so creative that this show is basically a slice of life but in a magic school so at first glance you don't notice how you're basically going through the same trope-y episodes as a school slice of life! Now don't get me wrong, I adore slice of life school dramas so I'm super down but I just love how it never feels like a slice of life episode until I think about it afterwards. Having said that I'm super hoping that we end up getting a beach episode of something similar cause that would slay me. I really thought that maybe Iruma would end up joining the Student Council cause Ameri is there and if Battlers are used to go up in ranks then Iruma would need to join a real one but I think that he'll end up joining the Magical Apparatus one which low key sucks cause I want Iruma to do well and with only one member of that Battler, it's not as fun as if he joined the Student Council! I do wonder if the new character we met was the one who made that ring for Iruma and if he did how it ended up in that owl! As a sidebar I was a living for Clara continuously trying to join the Succubus Battler and Azz dragging her away like you have no chance with it cause not only was it hilarious and a nice callback to a previous episode but it reminded me how much I loved that Clara centric episode and how much I low key want her to seduce Iruma!
Special 7: Special Crime Investigation Unit Episode 11
This episode really did this to us huh?? It ramped up the stakes and the story only to stop and leave the best for next week which is the finale! I was complaining last week that it made no sense that Special 7 was targeted by the police force and now we find out that the Public Safety leader was a follower of Warlock from the start so that's why he always hated the Special 7 unit but I do think that this was a bit out of nowhere cause if this character had been shown more we would have been more shocked. Instead when the reveal happened I was like oh okay I think I know who this dude is. Luka was also returned to normal through the power of Nijou's love which I know I should be complaining about but it makes sense cause Luka's love for Nijou was his strongest emotion so of course that's what would help him break the brainwashing not to mention the fact that last week we saw that he's been getting flashes of his life only to ignore them. The biggest reveal though was defs the fact that Boss was a dragon! I know the dragons are supposed to have nine heads aka 9 people with the dragon power but I wonder if we're supposed to think that there's only three in the human world right now (Boss, Warlock and Seiji) or if there are others out there.
FINISHED Stand My Heroes: Piece Of Truth Episode 12
Though the finale of this show aired this week it terms of story it feels like we ended on a bit of a cliffhanger in that it felt like the show wanted to make a season 2 cause the overall mystery was solved but not everything was wrapped up. As we found out last week Miyase was the one who was distributing Plus and trying to frame Kujo for it. Apparently that scientist that helped make Zero and Miyase's mom were in love but Kujo's dad separated them and I'm pretty sure he raped Miyase's mom based on what we saw about how scared she was when she saw how much Miyase looked like his father and so when Miyase found out he decided that he needed to get revenge on the Kujo family. Like I never suspected Miyase as the bad guy, I also never expected him to be the kid that had the package! In the end though we figured out what was happening and obviously stopped Plus from hitting the streets Miyase got away and because of that STAND was almost destroyed before it got off the ground but in the end I think STAND was okay cause Aoyama mentioned how he was planning on joining STAND now that he solved the Anonymous Case. Overall I had fun with this show and I liked the mystery but I do wish that there was a romance for Rei preferably with Aoyama who totally freaked out the most when he found out that Rei and Miyase were together so my shipper brain is low key content.
FINISHED Assassin's Pride Episode 12
The finale for this anime aired this week and tbh it was fairly disappointing. I had a feeling that this show wouldn't end in a satisfactory way cause there was so much to plot to deal with and so little time. We know for a fact that Melida received Kufa's mana in episode 1 but we had no idea if Melida was an illegitimate child or not and I feel like we still don't know cause we know for a fact that Melida has no mana but does that mean that she's not an Angel? Her father mentioned that he had a relative that was part of the Samurai mana class which in his mind means that Melida is of his blood but like is that true?? Why was there such an emphasis on Melida being a supposed incompetent girl if in the end it meant nothing in terms of her lineage? We also know nothing about that Duke who was leading the charge on outing Melida as a bastard cause his plan obviously didn't work cause Melida was a badass who was trained by Kufa but like he just killed everyone who was in his way and pretended like he had no idea about what happened. Is this an attempt for a season 2? I did like that Melida was able to prove her strength and show the others that she wasn't incompetent but I do wish we had gotten more. Overall I had a fun time with this show if I ignored the overarching plot and just watched the show at face value.
FINISHED The Mandalorian Season 1 Episode 8
What a finale guys! We seemed to have pretty much gotten rid of everyone from season 1 so that we can have more of a clean slate for season 2 and I don't know if that's a good thing or not cause the only real complaint I have about this show is the fact that Mando doesn't have a permanent or even semi-permanent crew! Not only are the guild leader and ex-Rebellion member staying on the planet we first started this show on but we have pretty much lost every single Mandalorian that this show introduced us to cause apparently instead of moving to a new location after they were exposed in the early episodes, they decided to return to where they were so that they could be slaughtered. I couldn't decide if I knew the name Moff Gideon before in some other canon but the strangest part was when he ended up not only surviving both a bombing of his ship and a crash landing of his ship but the fact that he has a darksaber! I didn't know there was more than one out there and the last I heard of one was in Star Wars: Rebels where Sabine held it and that took place pre-A New Hope so either there's another one that Gideon found or he stole Sabine's. I low key hope that Sabine can pop up later in this show cause I'm sure she'd be an adult now and since she was a cartoon, we can cast whoever the hell we want! My favorite scene though hilariously has to be the opening where those Storm Troopers were fighting over whether one could look at Baby Yoda or not but I also loved everything with Nurse IG unit too! Overall I did really enjoy this show and it finally feels like we're getting a plot for season 2 with finding out Baby Yoda's species and returning him to his home so I'm content!
Harley Quinn Season 1 Episode 5
This episode wasn't as fun as the last one cause the twist at the end was something I thought was pretty well known in terms of Harley's origin story but I guess the show just wanted to spell it out for people who didn't actually know the truth. Though Joker did cause Harley to fall in love with him, it was Harley herself who actually jumped into the vat of chemicals to prove her love for him so it all depends on semantics about whether you believe that Joker was responsible for Harley or if Harley was herself. I do still love this world and the characters and how they end up in the strangest situations which is really winning me over cause you all know how much I love silliness in a show! I did love seeing all the flashbacks to Harley as a child though I don't know if I ever knew that Harley wasn't completely sane as a child cause my head-canon was always that the chemicals did it but I'm not married to this idea so I'm cool with this new version of Harley who was pretty messed up from the start. I also love the new lair that we got but I'm surprised that we ended up going that route cause I did love Ivy's old place and I hope that we get to fix up the new one like makeover style!
