xyzzysqrlWe watched some stuff before breaking for foods.
You're Under Arrest 14
Week-old manju. Mmm. Nom nom nom.
NATSUMI JUST OFFERED TO DO SOMETHING! WORLD ENDING! ...oh, she's just helping herself to the manju.
And she hits her head and we're BACK TO THE PAST. No doubt the... Manju Era. JAPANESE PUNS. *drumroll* *throw drum kit down stairs* *give up*
FORMAL LANGUAGE!
Miyuki gets bishoujo sparklies. Shiny shiny.
Sadly Aoi does not get bishounen sparkles.
Natsumi's subconscious really thinks poorly of Kenny.
Weirdly, I would totally watch a samurai police proceedural.
Hard-edged interogation action.
...I really feel bad for Aoi, getting stripped goddam near every episode now. I realize it's for humor value, but it IS kind of the lowest form of "She's got a weiner!" gag.
Two-fingered rib-breaking grip! ...holy hell. This IS kind of violent for this show.
A maple leaf, a red and white cloth... THE KILLER WAS CANADIAN!
"Wait! I'm the murderer! I did it all!" -- I hate this plot-twist, but here it's kinda funny.
I ART THOU. AND THOU ART I. MANJU MURDERER NATSUMI! PER-SOOOO-NAAAAAA!
And now spinning-face freakout sequence! And back to reality.
And so the episode ends with Natsumi getting beaten silly for eating all the snacky-cakes. JUSTICE IS SERVED.
You're Under Arrest 15
High society ballroom versus TERRORIST NINJAS. Where's Chuck Norris when you need him?
Oh hey, it's the villain from episode 8. She failed to learn that LUCK WINS ALL. She is, however, learning that SHOOTING PEOPLE wins all. ...oh. In her dreams.
Yoriko is making Agatha-Heterodyne-faces. *squooshyface*
"EXCUSE ME. I'm the best and ALWAYS WILL BE." "Okay!" -- This is the worst rivalry ever. Yoriko is not actually aware she's PART of it.
Team-battle! This will... prove she's... better than Yoriko? I guess...
"What's more important? Our friendship or your TV?" "TV." --- Owwww.
The woof and I agree... everything's -really- off-model and funky looking today. What happened to their budget?
OOOOHOHOHOHO.
So they're gonna... play paintball. Okay.
A MULTICULTURAL TEAM OF PAINTBALL AVENGERS.
So it's like Capture The Flag, except by "capture" they mean "shoot" and by "flag" they mean "team leader".
Decoy grenade! Decoy jacket! Cold blooded execution! ... quite clever really.
MOBILE BOULDER BRIGADE.
The parallel world theory explains why people in Japan have guns! ...?!
And everyone gets gunned down!
Moral of THIS one: "For god's sakes, pay attention to what you're fucking DOING." No submoral, no subversion.
Kamen Rider Den-O 35
"Today... I failed." "Hey, are you gonna be able to keep fighting?" "Yes. I just have to do it BETTER." ... So much for that angst.
...of course, Zeronos and Old Hana are still in the opening TOO. So I dunno if Sieg will come back.
Kintaros. Very traditional. I'm half-expecting him to do shoryukens under this waterfall.
Woof: "Why does she HAVE a six foot long fan to slap him with?!" Sqrl: "Because it was funny."
Deneb brings the BIG MEALS to the train. Aw yeah.
Yuuto: "DENEEEEEB! YOOOOOOOOU PUT MUSHROOMS IN THE MEAAAAATLOAF!" *pro-wrestling breaks out*
...uhhhh... Thanks, Kintaros. Pissing off a room full of karate guys is... totally how to make Ryoutarou stronger. Y-yeah.
Ryuutaros, meanwhile, considers the essence of training to be "When you want to win, you should win."
...does this count as "the past giving you hope"? Or is it "giving hope to the past"? Or ... What the hell IS Sakurai doing?
NAOMI. STOP POKING MOMOTAROS WITH A STICK. IT'S MEAN.
...no, no, he has no physical attributes because he's full of spirit and courage.
What WAS Deneb contracted for, anyway? It looks like he's contracted to Old Sakurai, not Young Yuuto.
Oh, here we go. Yuuto's on the "WHAT AM I FIGHTING FOOOOOOOR" path.
BADASS MANLY KARAOKE.
The Imagin are getting more and more.... prolific.
Meanwhile, back with the B cast...
...I'm not sure even Yuuto actually LIKES Sakurai.
Does he have a BASEBALL CAP on under his FLOPPY HAT?
And so he uses the transformation card that... makes Sakurai vanish from the timeline entirely?
Oh, no. There he is. In the... future? I think it is? ...uh, good? ...maybe? Uh... should we be... worried? Or upset about that?
SOMEONE TELL ME WHAT IS HAPPENING. *glare at show*
Nadia - The Secret of Blue Water 14
"The year is 1889, and it is historically accurate in all respects. So here's this giant enemy robot crab..."
Nadia: "Looks like we're gonna go MURDER SOME MORE." Lick me, Nadia.
I think Marie just developed brain poisoning from Nadia's arguments.
"I'm an ENGINEER, not a doctor, Sanson."
Nemo's a genius on the subject of Tropical Fever? ... yeah, okay, I buy this actually.
Standard RPG Plotline 27: Someone in the party is sick, need cure.
Complication 12: Our goal is right next door and in the opposite direction.
...oops, Nadia now has brain fever too. And Grandis bursts into Sickbay with a BUTCHER KNIFE. Hee.
W-Wow. Sanson is developing superhero-levels of Moral Compass.
But it's okay. Nemo just whipped out Moral Imperative: Never let anyone die because of Tropical Fever.
"Here, hold this lion."
Serious moral discussions. Not a lot of funny to pull out of this.
Okay, you three. Suit up in the BIGGEST DIVING GEAR IN THE COUNTRY.
"We made a lion diving suit from scratch! Isn't it awesome?"
Morse code and speakers. Okay, this works, realistically speaking.
Bathysphere, away! And now for "Weird shit lives in the canyons at the bottom of the sea."
THERE'S the taser shotgun I remember.
Underwater grapple gun!
Slice. No more rope, of course.
What idiot cast "Summon Bigger Fish"?
Oh. It's a rail-spike shotgun.
Biology lesson!
And so Nadia learns that there are moral shades between "Murdering Psychopath" and "Kitten-hugging Saint".
