Whine more, Kagura. Whine more.

Impressions:

Yes. This is how you recapture the interesting bits of Yomi slicing people up. You have an episode where Kagura is sad that Yomi and Noriyuki don’t get along and concocts a terrible plan to make Yomi jealous over Noriyuki and therefore fall in love with him. I take back what I said last week. Lesbian antics weren’t the furthest thing that I expected. This was far and beyond my wildest animation for the show. If you had told me after episode 1 or 2 that a month later, we’d be going through family/team cliches so bad that even Kyouran Kazoku Nikki didn’t touch them, I’d have laughed at you.

Apparently this time, the joke’s on me. Ugh. Let’s get back to the violence and monsters here. Please. This wasn’t even silly quasi-incestual groping. This was just… generic, predictable, and awful. At least Mei looks like she might bring a little insanity back to the series. Maybe. Or she’ll learn a valuable lesson about family and give up her grudge against her cousin. God, I hope next episode is about that and not… say… the Naboo twins having a spat or some crap. The fact that I’m worried it’s going to rip episode ideas from Ouran is not a good thing.
