Horizon on the Middle of Nowhere #09 — Sex Bomb
November 27th, 2011
Frankly, I expected more sex.
Impressions:
I was hoping for a lot better from Kimi’s fight. It just looked so boringly pasted together out of barely related clips. Kimi waves her arm, her little flower barriers appear, cut over to Futayo stabbing little flower barriers, repeat… sometimes literally. For a melee fight, I’m not sure the two even appeared in the same frame more than a few times before Kimi turned the sex power up to maximum and began slapping Futayo. She didn’t even really do that much dancing either. You’re powered by a ‘sex’ goddess, girl and have impossible curves, do a little more than sway, damn it. Her little goddess’s glazed expression through the entire thing did make me chuckle though.
The flashback in literally the middle of the fight to further talk about mostly Toori and how he completely shut down after Horizon’s ‘death’ certainly didn’t help matters either. That really should have come way waaaaay back when they first brought up Horizon’s death with maybe a brief callback here. Compared to the flashback later which for once was about right. Relevant, came after an emotional high, added to the scene without interrupting the flow, and brief. The rest wasn’t really anything of too much note. Musashi’s king threw a tantrum, Toori went off on his own, everybody else followed of course anyway to dramatic "embarking on a journey" music. If they replaced the stairway with a bridge, they could have even just used the Final Fantasy main theme.

I was expecting more fights like the maid vs the mecha, or lance-wielding old guy vs blonde guy, but it seems that we are now with silly battles one after the other, and the plot is kinda boring too, sad I was expecting more from this show.
