Kirokokori’s Anime Blog

I’m a lazy ASS, I know, but here’s hoping I can get this going regularly now.

So, Ayu and Yuuichi have confessed their love to each other. Which was cute, despite my preferences towards Makoto and Mai. Although I’ve gotta say, it seemed rather…sudden. I mean, normally sarcastic Yuuichi, suddenly doing, well, this-

So, they agreed to meet eachother after school every day like they did when they were little, and head back to the house. Where they see Nayuki, who is obviously jealous. I swear, Yuuichi is the most oblivious person in existence…scratch that, I think it’s a curse among the men of anime.

So, more flashbacks with the tree place, and, after rewatching the first few episodes while showing them to a friend, Ayu definately fell out of it, or something to that degree. Which would support my ‘Ayu is deadlolz‘ theory. Please, if anyone comments on this, don’t spoil me, I haven’t seen the old anime or played the game.

Yuuichi and Ayu continue searching for her lost item, but after awhile she says she’s okay not finding it, because she’s already happy. Followed by a very humorous discussion about her use of the word ‘Boku’ when refering to herself.

After talking about her school a bit, Ayu agrees to take Yuuichi there the next day. Which is good, I’ve been waiting for them to address the issue of Ayu’s school, for obvious reasons.

They walk to the edge of town and up a hill through the woods with Ayu repeatedly reassuring Yuuichi that her school is just up ahead. When they reach the top, instead of a school, they find a clearing. In the middle of which, is the stump of the tree that they went to ‘7 years ago’.

Prompting Ayu to freak out. She rushes up to it yelling how it couldn’t be true and she’d just been to school with her friends earlier the same day. She took off her backpack to get proof, but it was empty, so she throws it down and runs off. (And I just totally mixed up tenses there, but meh.)

Yuuichi runs after her, and finds her on a road(?) digging through the snow and dirt with her hands. Also, her coat mysteriously dissappeared.

Yuuichi asks her what she’s doing and Ayu tells him she’s looking for her lost thing, so he starts digging to help her find it. After awhile they stop and Ayu suddenly tells Yuuichi she’s sorry, and she doesn’t think she’ll be able to see him again. And when he turns around, Ayu’s pulled a Makoto Shiori Houdini dissappeared.

Seems like the next episode is more Ayu stuff, probably memories and Yuuichi looking for her. Also seems to be the real start of Nayuki’s story arc.

Okay, I’m assuming there are only going to be one or two more episodes of Mai’s story?

Anyways, This episode was great, finally, a reason for the title of the series, I’ve been wondering (Not really familiar with the titles and such of classical music.). So, Yuuichi apparently knew Mai when they were younger too, I thought so. Honestly, did Yuuichi hit his head or something? You’d think a person would remember these kind of things. Oh well, still, I’m excited to see the backstory there…and why Mai was wearing bunny ears.

Anyone else think, “It’s Higurashi all over again!” when Yuuichi and Mai found Sayuri in the bathroom. At least she turned out to be…well, not dead. (Good thing to, the backstory with her and her brother was too sweet for her to be killed off in the same episode.) Although, Mai still went crazy batshit and smashed stuff.

Sorry that I haven’t posted, I’ve been pretty busy, I’ll probably start putting things up semi-regularly again when my vacation is over.

Also, does anyone have any anime suggestions? I’m really only watching Kanon and Ghost Hunt right now. Naruto and Bleach too once the fillers are over. Still, not a lot, so if anyone knows any new series that are good, please tell me!

Well, I just found out that this series is actually on episode 10 right now. Stupid slow fansubbers. >_<

Anyways, I would like to say, I friking called the ghost being a mom! When they were having the conversation about the children in the house’s deaths, when Naru-chan (:P) was saying how if the ghost was lonely, why didn’t it pull a Dark Water look for a mother figure instead, my first thought was, ‘Hey, maybe it’s the opposite, and it’s a mommy ghost!’. The end of the episode proved my theory right too.

 Well, that’s about all I have to say, can’t wait for the next episode (Which I’m assuming is the conclusion of this file…?).

(Sorry, no screenshots, couldn’t find any.)

Okay, I’m still not quite sure what, to say, as I JUST finished watching this, and my eyes are still burning from crying. Watching Makoto deteriorate in the last couple episodes was pretty depressing, and this one was just terrible. I was already tearing up about 10 minutes in, and by the end I was crying my eyes out. Oh damn it, I’m making myself sad again typing this.

Anyways, basically Yuuichi was trying to give Makoto everything she wanted and be with her the entire episode, until the end, when she, well, pretty much died. ;_; The part with the photo and the one with them together on the field were so sweet….did I mention it was sad? xD The only thing that had me sorta confused was the very ending, with Makoto lying on the grass with Piro? I think it was about her being happy and everything, from her line about wishing it was always spring (After she disappeared, Yuuichi was back on a WINTER hill), and Piro was with her and everything, but I’m not sure if I interperated it right. Anyone know?

(Pictures from game btw, couldn’t find any screenshots.)

Well, Makoto being a fox was pretty unexpected. I mean, I knew something was up, but I didn’t think it’d be that. And now she’s apparently going to die soon? Not quite sure. And I was really starting to like her.

Not to mention all this backstory stuff going on, there’s so many characters and their stories going on, I don’t know what to write about. I’m glad they’re making a remake of Kanon, I saw an AMV of the old one, ugh, the art was so bad I honestly don’t think I would’ve been able to watch it. Well, that’s all I have to say really, sorry I haven’t posted anything in awhile, I’ve been busy with school and other things.

I finally got this up, so hi. I’ll have up posts about actual anime soon. ^^ (Omg Shortness. >_>)
