Maken-ki #04 — The Pants-Killer
October 25th, 2011
…I don’t understand how the powers work in this show.
Just FYI, Thursday shows will be a little delayed. My compromise of doing problem sets the day they’re assigned and then skipping the lecture covering the latter half of them doesn’t work so well when there’s a prelim.
Impressions:
And in this particular brand of stupidity, after spending half of last week’s episode with him naked (not to mention living with him), Himegami decides to drag Takeru out on a date in order to… get him out of his shirt in public and have a look at his chest for the magical symbol of magicness. Did they accidentally mix up the order of the episodes here? Of course, it only appears when he gets a stiffy, so it’s not until locking lips with her while she’s soaking wet that his true powers can be unleashed and he can blow the pants off some guy. Seriously. He grabs the guy’s blade, crushes it, and the guy is suddenly thrown backwards without his pants. I am not kidding here. His shirt? Unscathed. His shoes? Unscathed. His pants? Completely obliterated. How? Why? And in a show populated by women with the camera permanently shoved up their Lady Gagas, how in the blazes is this incredibly specific trouser-blasting power first used on a man?
So many questions. So few answers.

Oh no! Glowing things and speedlines!

Please no, don’t ever call them L**y G**a’s ever again. I still think G**a is a guy.
