xyzzysqrlYet another summary post. Maybe I should move -these- to a separate journal.
You're Under Arrest 23
A long and lonely road with a motorcylist. An AMERICAN motorcycle. In Amer... Japan.
Ooh. Kenny's dad is getting married. Finally.
Aww. The old wrinkly dude is the only one at the station who's actually married. ...wait, who is that again?
Wedding-dress shopping while on-duty. Snrk. Hopefully it's a slow crime day.
...HEY, Yoriko, you COULD'VE gotten married LAST episode.
...Yet again, they all pull back from the idea of Aoi in a wedding dress. Hrmf. I think she'd look -great-.
Or he would. I'm genuinely not sure which to use anymore.
Oh, man. Those noses. They could pop a balloon on those points.
Kenny, please, like... don't MAKE OUT with the wedding dress.
While picturing Miyuki in it.
GOD DAMN ROMANTIC TENSION. *flail flail flail*
This church has a CROSS made out of WRENCHES. Good fricking lord. First Church of Wrench Wenchery.
And now Ken's Dad's Friends show up, and Natsumi and Kenny squirt in their pants over MOTORCYCLE PORN.
Knowing this show I bet all these motorcycles are drawn to a higher standard of quality than the people riding them.
And then a fleet of antique cars show up, and SQUEEEEE all over again. Hee.
So they have a pre-wedding time trial! ...males only? Fuck that. Miyuki's laying down some law. ...to get them to hold a proper Slow Race instead. *blink*
And so Kenny's dad... er... demands he enter the race and recieve a kiss from his mom-to-be? "SON I DEMAND YOU MAKE OUT WITH MY WIFE."
Well, at least this way the girls are entertained.
And since Ken won, they're tucking Miyuki in the dress for a kiss instead. Or... maybe to eat his nose. ART QUALITY.
Awesome. FULL WEDDING PARTY KAROKE.
(The dub actors went ALL OUT for this. *sniff* It's kinda fantastic.)
Aoi catches the bouquet, of course. "What's the point in YOU catching it?" Awww, man. Aoi gets no love. *sad*
Aaand Kenny twigs to it having been Miyuki in the gown. SHIPTEASE ++.
Well, this was a feelgood episode all 'round.
Woof: "Do they ever actually get together?"
Sqrl: "Hell if I know."
Woof: "After -three seasons- if Kenny and Miyuki aren't a couple YET there's gonna be like fan suicide."
Kamen Rider Den-O 46
Oh, hey, Owner is explaining the plot for us. Thanks, Owner!
...or not. "Ryou realizes he's forgot something, goes to the past, sees Zeronos, and watches Kai win. In THE PAST. Not now."
Killing everyone and then making Nogami FORGET IT HAPPENED was actually VERY CLEVER. I think. I'm... I really can't tell. Someone actually explain this goddamn plot! Damn it, Kai!
This is my new "Fuck you" for Rider shows. It's Kai's fault. Even if it isn't.
...Inevitably, Ryuutaros is -pissed- at the idea that Big Sis might've been killed.
"I'm sure something else happened that day..." And so Ryoutaro idly plots to reload from an earlier saved game and play through the file a couple more times.
What the fuck IS going on with Kai, anyway? His Imagin Sidekick seems to imply he has like CRIPPLING BRAIN DAMAGE or something.
Deneb is in favor of just TELLING Nogami the plot of the show, or the Big Secret of whatever.
Yuuto just wants to know if his future self is a bad guy or not. Aw.
...Sakurai was apparently a brave fighter who tried to hold Kai off as long as possible, and then wished for Deneb to help Yuuto as long as possible. That's... really sweet, actually. I don't know how to feel about him anymore.
"Maybe you have an emotional attachment to me?" *shooting star* OH DENEB. (srsly yuuto/deneb 4EVER.)
Awesome. BAND CAMP DRAGON. MANLY COOKING BEAR. Momotaros dressed like a Japanese peasent. It is PARTY TIME. For everyone except Ryoutaro, who is ... confused. Sigh.
"Why did I want a watch in AUGUST?!"
Ryou is having, like... he missed ONE plot path, and he can't FIND it. I've played games like this.
Kai just fist-banged some memories out of Ryou. What the hell.
...Now KAI seems to know ... Oh my god. Kai didn't know Ryou was the hero. FOR 45 EPISODES THEY HID THIS FROM HIM. And of course his sister's the "key to time" or whatever, but NICE GOING hiding that, guys. Big claps for Yuuto and Sakurai, the Distraction Squad.
Kai: "Hello, Ryou's sister. My CHEST VAGINA wants to speak with you."
Ah-ha. Hahaha. You are threatening HIS sister and HIS ... uhm, wife-to-be-maybe-it's-complex. Prepare to be doomed.
And Sakurai shows up. TRIPLE. RIDER. BEATDOWN.
Double Rider kick! Train slash finish! Excellent.
Uh. Hi, Airi. It's good to see you on the... Denliner. Huh.
She knows, o'course. She's known all along.
This explanation is actually filling in quite a few gaps in the plot, I think. Not that I'm gonna repeat it here. I need to get you bastards to watch the show SOMEhow.
...a nice, cathartic apology to Yuuto and Ryoutaro for jerking them around so much.
"I didn't know you'd be fighting. Are you okay?" "Yes. I have my friends." And the Imagin break DOWN. *sniffle*
So... if this is Past Airi who was taken out at the LAKE, how is she still around in the Present Day, working at the coffee shop?
Yuuto gives her a flower anyway, before she goes back to... get vaporized. Sigh. Goodbye, uh, Past Airi.
...so, no, wait... was she not vaporized because Future Sakurai came back in time specifically to remember her?
Time travel is HARD.
Kai: "I feel like this is AWFUL." YOU CAN'T JUST HAVE YOUR CHARACTERS SAY HOW THEY FEEL. THAT MAKES ME FEEL ANGRY.
....wow, Kai absorbed ALL the Imagin present. He's launching an all-out assault on, uh, sometime.
...what. What. "My Last Moments Will Make You Cry"? Aw, MAN. NO. They can't kill off Imagin NOW. Can they? God damn it. *whimper*
Legend of Galactic Heroes 44
...we'll find out tomorrow night, because tonight, it's time for more Legend of Space Germans, where they can in fact kill off anyfuckingbody at any time.
So. 36,000 ships VERSUS Yang Wen-Li. (Yang is winning.)
So... Mittermeyer's fleet is warping somewhere else... ah-ha. Phezzan. Not telling them until they're in MID-SPACE is operational security.
"We're gonna turn the pages of history." Just don't rip any.
Big ol' cheer for this plan from the troops. I guess they didn't wanna fight Yang either.
"I am a side character!" "I too am a side character!" "Let's talk about our future." "I have a GREAT future planned. Guys, it will be so great. You don't even know." "...holy shit 20,000 ships just appeared." "I think we're gonna die."
Meanwhile, everyone on Phezzan freaks the fuck out. NO SHOCK THERE.
The head of Phezaan is held at gunpoint by his own son, ready to take over the leadership position... and said son is shot down like a dog by hidden snipers. Duuuuuuumb aaaaaaass.
...do you really need to lecture him on how much he sucks while he's bleeding to death on the floor? (Possibly, that is the best time.)
Hee. Julian on getting out of town: "Traffic's jammed. C'mon." "Are we going to walk?" "No, run."
Mittermeyer takes a moment to explain that undignified actions like looting will result in execution, as they take the planet. O'course. DIGNITY.
Julian plows into the embassay and... starts shouting orders. Which freaks out a lot of people.
"Well, you could erase all the data, or just give it to them and hope they're GENTLE with you." ... ... ... "ERASE ALL THE DATA GODDAMN IT."
I'm just a politican, Julian! I can't make decisions!
Julian, meanwhile, builds a rifle autoturret out of spare parts onhand. Interesting.
Aw. Julian just wants to get back to Yang's side.
Mittermeyer, in the FINE tradition of conquerers everywhere, puts himself up in the nicest hotel possible.
And he promptly stages a public execution of the soldiers who were caught raping and looting. In spite of his warning. ...well, uh, that got a hell of a cheer from the people of Phezaan. Good.
...Julian, meanwhile, apparently has decided to find a Han Solo and hire his way offplanet. Nice move.
Why are people on the street huffing about how NOT CUTE Reinhard is?
And so a revolution begins to brew up.
"So, we haven't captured the two other faction leaders, and they erased a lot of data off the computers..." "Mmh. Perfection is an impossible task." I do kinda like Reinhard. *sigh* He understands not getting 100% Complete on EVERY MISSION.
"I feel like Rubinsky is hiding something." *SWELL OF MUSIC*
...sigh.. And a brief scene over the credits show that he's still doing all of this with memories of Siegfried in mind... Poor guy. I really do feel for him.
Woof: "That has to be saddening. Aside from the one guy who is technically his whole staff, and one loser politician who only didn't run because he didn't know where to go, EVERYONE has gone over to the Imperials. No one is even INTERESTED in getting word to the Alliance."
