A Certain Worthless Telepath #21 — Zzzzzzzzzzzzz…

February 26th, 2010

 

22 seconds of plot stretched out for 22 minutes.

Impressions:

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzskkn huh? Oh? It’s over?

Let’s see… Haruue is a very weak telepath with a very strong mental link to one of the Child Errors. There. Done. I have saved you 22 tedious minutes of nothing but speculating heads and some of the most egregious abuse of ‘hacking’ that I’ve seen since Hackers. Yes. ELECTROCUTING THE COMPUTER is a perfectly understandable way of getting it to do what you want. It’s amusing that despite not doing the Sisters arc which could have been decent, they’re still stuck on this human network stuff. Can they really not think up anything new? 

They’re also going in a really kind of moronic direction with Uihara here. She’s known this girl for approximately two days, and is already getting uppity and overprotective over the suspicions that Haruue might be related to the whole affair. I really hope that was just bad writing this episode and they seriously don’t turn Kuroko vs Uihara over some random girl into a major point of drama for the end of this. How about setting up an antagonist for the titular character? Or are we just going to spawn a giant baby out of magic thoughts once more? Sigh. Where’s Touma when you need somebody to slap a ho?

    You forget that Uiharu was the one that defended the woman who kidnapped her. A woman she barely knew mind you.

    By Uiharu logic, knowing someone for 2 days practically makes them soulmates.

  • Yue says:

    It bothers me what the heck is Uiharu’s headgear? She bathes with them on, does she? Is it her esper ability? Grow plants on her scalp? XD

  • temperus says:

    Oh come on, don’t tell you’re expecting something truly interesting or original from Railgun? :)

    I could have told you (by episode 2 or so) that this series is just about insipid teenager views of friendship, with some of the lamer elements of Index mixed in to keep everyone from nodding off every minute or two.

    Still, I didn’t think the bar could get any lower for A Certain Filler Franchise, and they proved me wrong.. maybe that counts for something?

  • DmonHiro says:

    I miss Touma.

  • Anise Punter says:

    I was at least hoping for another episode with maids in it.

    • Yue says:

      Yes, more maids and cameos!! This time I want Misaka to play a solo piano and Touma to conduct the orchestra.

      Then Misaka shouts, “Gya~~boh!” ^^;

  • Yue says:

    What does “Bees! Hundreds of killer bees!” mean? I can’t decipher Aroduc’s drift in this one…
