[ISM Flight 2 Anime]Chrome Shelled Regios 15
Nina tells the platoon that they will be having a training camp that did not involve the president in any way of getting the budget. It was revealed that Meishen and the others had helped them in the budget in return for photos to be taken of them during training. Meishen will take care of the food while Naruki will be helping out for the platoon's training. Layfon requests to help Meishen in the cooking and was spied on by Felli who wanted to know their conversation. Nina joins her as well and spied on them from the outside. Sharnid then comes by and shows them a tool to remove the skin of the potatoes easily and led to Nina and Felli eyeing for it. Nina won however but Layfon had already finished helping. The training begins and Nina suggest that the match would be Layfon against everyone else. Naruki opposes it at first as she felt that it would be unfair but Sharnid tells her that she would get it once the match starts. And so the match begins and Naruki will be their decoy and Felli will support Nina. Layfon waits at the flag until the time was right and he disappears. He appears behind Naruki and easily sweeps her up. Layfon then advances to Sharnid which he dodges every single bullet that Sharnid shoots. Layfon goes to confront Nina but Naruki gets back up but was yet again swept up. The match then ends with Sharnid's signal with Layfon as the winner. At Grendan, the queen was told that Leerin could be a person who might be related to her since Grendan appeared in front of her but the queen kills the servant off even before she reveals Leerin's identity. Meishen feels that she needs to know more about Layfon and the others agrees to help her. Layfon goes out at night to meet with Meishen and talks to her that he was a monster due to their monstrous kei. He continues to say that that was why people are afraid of them. Meishen however tells him that she was not afraid when the place where they are at suddenly collapses. Layfon quickly grabs Meishen and ran to avoid the danger but in the end he was injured trying to protect Meishen. Luckily for them, Felli had found them and Layfon blacked out soon after.
*it was amusing to see how Felli and Nina actually wanted to spy on Meishen and Layfon... and sadly Felli lost to Nina on their small duel =D Layfon is just too strong... 4v1 and still won, WOW he could just go and create his own platoon with only himself as the member. it seems like Layfon will still be recovering in the next epi and the 17th platoon would have to fight without Layfon, that could be a downfall for the platoon unless they had somehow toughened their skills. now it also seems like Leerin could be a sister or some sort to the queen since Grendan appeared in front of her as well. too bad the servant died before we get to know the truth, seems like she was unhappy to know it too... =X*
K-ON! 4
Mio discovers a recording of the previous K-ON! band of the school and was greatly motivated not to lose to them. Yui was still having problems with her guitar chords and Mio comes in and declare that they will be having a training camp at Tsumugi's villa. The school festival was coming up already and Mio wanted the band to perform live during the event. Apparently Yui almost overslept but she managed to catch up with the train and they were all trilled to find out that Tsumugi's villa was near the ocean. Just when Mio wanted to start practising, she tells Tsumugi that she was worried for the band but Tsumugi tells her that it will be alright for them. Yui and Ritsu then comes in to invite them to go and play. When Tsumugi leaves to enjoy herself, Mio reluctantly follows them as well. The four of them started to have fun on the beach with Tsumugi creating a marvelous structure of a castle from sand and Mio enjoying herself on the rocks till she saw the barnacles and got all scared and even screamed when Ritsu tells her that barnacles will grow on her legs. Apparently they were enjoying themselves so much that Mio almost forgot their training. Mio then had to wake Ritsu and Yui using her bass and even had to scare Ritsu that she was growing fat to make her play her drums. Ritsu suggests again that they should run a maid cafe and thinks about Mio doing all those moe-expressions and causes her head to get wacked by the embarassed Mio. Late that night, Mio let everyone hear the recording and the music was great until the singing which made Mio try and forget what she had heard. Yui later shows the others that she knew how to play the exact same tune in the recoding and everyone was surprised by it. Mio then realises that she had worried too much for the band. They return from the villa and Ritsu went to show Mio the photos which made her take a violent step after seeing that her sleeping face was captured by Ritsu. The band now continues to move on to the goal of Budokan...
*lots of Mio's moe expressions this epi and it was amazing to see how Ritsu manage to scare Mio so easily... Yui seems to have a large improvement in her guitar skills as well just that she still twist her fingers after trying to express some of the guitar chords. time is flying fast in the series and summer break was soon over, which means that they would be doing a live in the school festival which may be in a few more epis... hopefully this great series isnt a short one =) (moe~ moe~ kyun! XDDD)*
Shangri-La 3
Kuniko learns from the old lady that her mother had previously lived in Atlas but before she was able to ask more questions, Kuniko's friends took her away to the farewell party of Miko. At the farewell party, Miko tells Kuniko that she would love to taste all the food at Atlas but her main aim was to revive the bar that Momoko and her had set up before. Momoko then hands her the signboard and Miko gets ready to leave for Atlas. Takehiko and some other Metal-age members raided an Atlas train and manage to steal their good which consists of ham and chocolates. They were giving it out to the people of Duomo when a group of people came in and attempt to stop them. They wanted Metal-age to leave Duomo as they felt that it was because of them that the military had attacked them and they will be labelled as terrorists as well. They were also afraid of not being able to get selected in the Atlas lottery to go into Atlas. Kuniko then tell Momoko that she wanted to go and have a look at Atlas and feels that only when she uses her own eyes and see Atlas, she might be able to see if everyone would be happy if they went to Atlas. Takehiko gives Momoko and Kuniko an Atlas pass that were made by the elders and they prepare to get themselves into Atlas by dressing up as workers. Everything went smoothly until Kuniko's pass did not work fine and they had run from the attackers. Meanwhile, Miko was brought to the palace where her belongings were all burnt and had to serve under Mikuni. While they were crossing a bridge, Kuniko looks at the outside and saw how small Duomo was and how large things were in Atlas. She was stunned and had to make Takehiko go and pick her up. An Atlas quake then begins and they took the chance to escape. Kuniko still pesters Momoko for an explanation why everything is so huge in Atlas as compared to Duomo and she thinks that "if only everyone could live in Atlas"
*so now Kuniko realises that everything was so different in Duomo as compared to Atlas. it must have taken a great hit on Kuniko when she realised how small a place was where everyone was living in. it seems that those who had won the Atlas lottery would be made to serve under Mikuni and are not really transferred to Atlas at all. it also seems that now Kuniko might wish to try and bring everyone into Atlas and the little girl who was hacking using MEDUSA now finds that someone else had a similar system that was able to disrupt the carbon emission rates too...*
Eden of The East 3
The two of them finally reach Akira's old house and somehow Akira knew which key was to be used to open the door. A dog greeted Akira happily after seeing him and Saki tells Akira that this was definitely Akira's home since the dog seemed to know him. Kondo reaches the place where Akira lives and goes off to find him. Akira and Saki follows the dog and he wonders why he was living in a shopping mall. Akira walks to the window and find words scribbled on the walls asking him to die. He realises that it was the exact same place where a photo was taken with him similing back at his home in America. Akira becomes more and more curious about what he had done in the past. The dog brings them to a room which was probably Akira's room. Saki suggests that maybe Akira was the manager and Akira asks her if she had any movie she wanted to watch. Akira then asks Juiz for the movie that Saki wanted to watch. Kondo was able to find Akira and Akira knows that he was looking for him through the cameras. Kondo walks up to him and punches him, taking his phone away. Kondo tells Akira that each of them started out with 10 million but that was not enough to save the country. He continues to say that when the value of the noblesse phone reaches zero, a supporter will come and kill the owner. Kondo was unable to use the phone he took from Akira as it uses fingerprint authentication and Akira uses the police pass he took from Kondo in exchange to see him. Kondo was however stabbed before Akira finds him and when he did, Kondo tells him that he should go and look for the other selecaos like them but they might not want to see him since he was the one who had grouped people up to make sure the missle kills them. Akira was shocked to learn the truth and leaves Kondo behind after hearing the sound of the police.
*almost everything was revealed in this epi, about the selecaos who are people forced to play some sort of game which we don't know yet and when the money in the noblesse runs out, the owner will die and we still know nothing about Juiz yet... anyway, Akira really seemed like a ruthless person in the past which i think he was trying to cause a missle which does not kill anyone to kill people. it seems to me that a possible ending would be Akira using up all his money to either save Saki or the country before dying at the end... of cos i wouldnt want that ending but it seems to be a possible one =X*
