Saten debates on using Level Upper while Kuroko deals with some dangerous thugs.
Impressions:
Okay first of all do these people hate Touma or something? Another episode where they cut him out. I suppose since there was ties to the last one there is some sense in it, but damn it they have to stop doing that. [...]

I’ll admit, I was drawn to the advertisements for Dragonaut, even if they didn’t make that much sense. The web ads depicting the fetching female lead and promise of abundant eye-candy (“Real Dragons have Curves,”) sparked an adolescent curiosity the likes of which I probably shouldn’t admit to ever possessing, but nevertheless made me elevate it to the top of my review queue. Long story short, having actually attempted viewing Dragonaut, the most positive thing I can proffer is that the series is one giant pile of suck. The ...

- Ninpuu Kamui Gaiden Blu-ray box announced. 34,800 yen before tax and contains the TV series and the movie. It's kinda expensive for a 1969 TV series (well, plus a movie) and I've never even heard of this series.

Much like the single for the third FMA ending theme (released 09-10-14), its PV has been out for quite a while now. I had seen it several weeks ago after Omni pointed it out to me, but posting about it kind of slipped my mind until now. As such, I wouldn't be surprised if many of you have already come across it, so this is more for those who haven't or would simply like to hear me out. (We have readers like that right...? >_>)
Titled "Tsunaida Te" 「つないだ手」 (Connected Hands), the song is performed by a relatively new female duo that debuted last year under DefSTAR Records, a subsidiary of Sony Music Entertainment. Featuring MIE as the vocals and AILA as the rap, Lil'B is actually short for "Little Betrayal", a name that's supposed to mean they're "a playful and mischievous surprise in the world". Hidden group name meanings aside, the PV doesn't feature MIE nor AILA as it's one of those scenario-type music videos. Instead, it stars the cute fashion model/actress Sasaki Nozomi. While this could easily become a full-blown discussion about Nozomi, I'll stop myself there with the "cute" remark and let you comment on that regard. Anyway, unlike supercell's Kimi no Shiranai Monogatari PV, this one is pretty easy to follow, which saves me from having to summarize it in some way. As for the song itself, I originally didn't think much of it when I heard it back in episode 27 and still sort of prefer Fukuhara Miho's "LET IT OUT", but it makes for a good solemn song in comparison.

Let it be decreed that this was the greatest pool/beach episode I've ever seen. If Sora no Otoshimono is fanservice done right long-term, this was fanservice done right in a one shot. Great designs, excellent animation, perfect use of chibi forms, sneaky fanservice split-second eyecatches, random appearances and that's in just half the episode! I have no doubt in my mind that AIC is going to knock Strike Witches out of the park. Actually, there's really not much I can say about the first half. I'll let the images speak for themselves.
