Tightly hugged by Sakura, Natsuru can’t believe his eyes she leans in to kiss him, but his joy quickly becomes terror when Sakura suddenly turns into Sangou who announces with a sly voice she shall continue on that kiss.

Waking up with a start, Natsuru realizes it was all but a dream. Smelling the telltale fragrance of curry, Natsuru wonders where the spicy odor could be coming from.

Hearing a knock on his door, Natsuru is shocked to see his childhood friend Mikoto barge into the bedroom holding a plate of steaming curry while wearing nothing but a frilly apron. Barely able to overcome his surprise, Natsuru pleads with the girl to put on some clothes but Mikoto misses no opportunity to tease Natsuru.

Waiting for the school bus to arrive, Mikoto tells Natsuru how happy she is to have finally returned to Japan and she’s looking forward to spend more time with him.

Lured into a match against Listy in a cave filled with giant crystals, Irma realizes too late she’s fallen right into queen Aldra’s trap and she soon finds herself battered under the powerful blows of Listy’s heavy spiked mace.

Watching the battle being broadcast, Echidna remembers teaching young Irma and how even back then she couldn’t convince the girl to drop her quest to take queen Aldra’s life, though it had never the wild elf’s intent to teach Irma assassination techniques so she could enact revenge on the queen.

Injured, Irma knows she will have no second chances to strike while slowly creeping up behind Listy. Seeing her own reflection in the crystals, Listy has an episode, her brainwashed mind trying to break free while she grabs her head in agony.

Using this mere instant to launch a desperate strike, Irma lunges her blades straight for her opponent’s heart but her attack misses and the girl is violently crushed underneath Listy’s mace. Coughing up blood, Irma’s lifeless body slumps to the floor and as her consciousness ebbs away, the last thing she sees is Echidna’s image and she desperately cries out the wild elf’s name.

Walking along windings paths through the woods even when the sun is already setting, Kan’u seems to think they might have chosen the wrong way to travel across this forest. Falling behind, Chouhi complains of stomach ache and soon collapses while holding her abdomen in pain.

Spotting a plume of smoke rising to the skies deeper along the path, Ryuubi urges everyone on and they soon come to a small clearing where a lone man sits near a burning camp fire. Carrying Chouhi on her back, Kan’u asks the man if they can rest there, explaining one of her companions is struck with sudden illness.

Veering up as soon as he hears the girl is ill, the man explains he’s a doctor and asks if they’ll allow him to have a look at her. Soon pinpointing the cause of Chouhi’s illness, he plants two acupuncture needles on her body with an elaborate show, instantly curing the girl.

Profoundly thanking him for his help, Kan’u hears him respond he feels it only natural for his goal as a doctor is to cure illness. When he introduces himself as Kada, a simple traveling doctor, Koumei recognizes him as the famed ゴットウェイド.

While I looked forward to receiving the Saber Lily and Yoko Littner figures, was more anxious for Good Smile Company’s release of Kanade and Yukino from “Candy☆Boy”.

Although their initial release date was planned for September, it got pushed back to late October and today they finally arrived on my doorstep after Hobby Link Japan shipped them out to me last week.

Compared to Saber Lily or Yoko these 1/8 scale figures seem smaller for they are more modest, less elaborate, no doubt because the lovely Sakurai sisters are sculpted in their school uniforms, exactly how they appeared in the anime.

Of course, as always with Good Smile Company the sculpt, painting and finishing is absolutely perfect with great attention for all the small details in the girls’ uniforms, hairpins, jewelry. Kanade’s watch even has the display image printed on.

Fall 2009 anime so far

Now that the fall 2009 anime season is well under way, thought to take a brief look at which series I ended up watching, as well as those that I like so far. Although as the season progresses, personal preference for a series may increase or decrease, depending on how those shows evolve.

From the episode reviews on this blog it’s obvious I’m watching “Kämpfer”, “Shin Koihime†Musou” and “Queen’s Blade ~Gyokuza No Tsugumono~”. Out of those three “Kämpfer” is definitely the best, a truly excellent series.

A series I hadn’t planned to watch but sampled upon recommendation of many fellow otaku and which is my favourite series so far this season is the really awesome “To Aru Kagaku No Railgun”.

A terrific action comedy, not unlike “Kämpfer” in terms of genre and elements for it has plenty of action, humor and yuri tinted scenes and is filled with great characters. Adore the lead character Misaka Mikoto, quite the tsundere that does her nickname biribiri justice, though do have a slight preference for Saten Ruiko, she’s irresistibly cute.
