I wasn’t able to write anything about last week. It’s not like it’s bad, I just happen to have no time doing it or in other words: I’m Lazy. This week is the continuation of an intense battle between team mates in achieving their dreams.
On an interesting note: This is one hell of a great fanservice episode; If this is what the author is going for. I really like the story here, where Natsume is driven off the wall and has no option but to rely on his friends to save him. He can’t save everybody and he also needs saving. So there. But Nyanko-sensei won’t make Natsume’s reputation any better.
Chiaki is not satisfied with what was said
The founder finally speaks-up after he read a (almost “too long I won’t read”) article by Mr.A about his thoughts why our dear media project won’t hit mainstream. Yours truly believes on the same thing but I’ll be more direct to the point on this opinion post. No more words like “inexcusable” and comparing the Project to other groups having similar objectives. I won’t even try to criticise anyone in the group, for I know that criticising someone without understanding what is to be on his shoes doesn’t help in getting things right. One of Mr.A’s examples why the Project won’t hit mainstream is ghostlightning’s blog, We Remember Love.
Ain’t Gon cute? Seeing the latest chapter of Hunter X Hunter, who wouldn’t want to see this face again in the manga. I like this episode, even if it’s a bit slow. That hesitation on his answer if he got his tag should be a give away that he didn’t have them. Kurapika and Lerio knew that something’s up, but chose not to meddle further. I like how things just turn without saying anything, and if those body language get to you, then you are paying attention and certainly you like this series.
After three episode, I like that this series doesn’t derail itself from the expectation I set last time. There isn’t much going on here. Much of the drama involve adjusting to the new life that awaits them. So how will our male lead will manage and how things will turn from this point on? Despite it’s slow pacing, I am happy with its development.
Oh that’s cute deskmoto-kun. BUT WHY ARE WE ON RECAP EPISODE! There’s nothing to talk about, beside how bad Chihayafuru sucks at making jokes. Besides, I just want to write this so that my dear readers who haven’t watched or had tuning in won’t have to ask why I skipped this episode. But still, I’m going to rank it.
One of the big things that made 2012 great so far, is that we can now see 1080p releases. That’s one major improvement, next to Animes being released in 720p. I wish I can go legit and watch from CR. But geographical restrictions are just cumbersome and it won’t let fans get what it wants. Still, Knight in the Area 3 shows that it can pull a stunt in a slightly decent portrayal of losing a love one. I like the subtle approach on this episode, but I would wish that the director to stop treating its audience like they’re brain-dead. I can piece the information myself thank you very much.
If there is one thing that is unique about the new hunter is how Hisoka is portrayed. Just look at how creepy he is. He’s just more than a wildcard in this game. But he’s turning into this paedophile with a range of tastes.
If you are going to take queue, at least do it properly. Everything in this episode came forced. The acting, the circumstances, even the tragedy. Nothing blends. It’s like they throw anything to instigate drama. Nothing is foreshadowed. The characters haven’t mature enough for me to care. Killing one won’t made cry man tears for it. Ugh.
I get to read a lot of comparisons over the old Hunter vs the New one. How one is better than the other. But it always get to me that people compare it far more than actually looking at the actual episode. One known blogger seem to get stuck in that tangent, and I often find it irritating to read. So since I’m writing few episodes this season and one last season, starting next week onwards I’ll be doing episode blogging of Hunter X Hunter.
Happy 23rd Birthday Hanazawa Kana-san!
