Ga-rei -Zero- #07 — Noriyuki Rejects the Cock Block

November 16th, 2008

  

You’re the man.

Impressions:

Another very boring episode after the fun of the previous one. Everything interesting this time around came from Mei and Noriyuki, who combined for about two minutes of screen time. I really did like how the first twenty seconds or so and it flowed into the OP a lot better than the show normally does. They’ve been using shots of school and peaceful scenes to segue into the fast paced opening, but this time around, they actually did use a dramatic scene of Mei reviving so it just seemed to flow a lot better. It does immediately invoke the question of whether or not the same thing happens to Yomi in the near future which will lead to the events of episode 1 or 2. At the moment, it’s looking pretty likely, but it’s still not entirely certain what exactly happened to Mei and if she was just twisted by butterfly boy or is completely subservient to his will.

As for Noriyuki, I all but cheered when he just grabbed Yomi and kissed her after Kagura cockblocked their intimate moment. Good job, dude. Don’t let those silly lesbians get in the way. Most of the rest of the episode was, unfortunately, just Kagura feeling sorry for herself and moping around. She makes up with her friends over the power of attempted martyrdom, and goes off to be happy with them while Mei kills Yomi’s father. Yomi does sense that there’s something wonky with Mei though, so at least it won’t be a total surprise to anybody when they figure things out.
