MLA: Total Eclipse #05 — Alaskan Cosplay Cafe

July 29th, 2012

 

Are we sure it’s just not a freaky whore house that also serves food?

Impressions:

Not the most terribly eventful episode. Most of the first two thirds were just kind of killing time. The first third rehashed a lot of the same stuff between Yuuya and Yui with some very slight bits of Inia and Kryska tossed in just in case you forgot how badly they emasculated Chobi a whole two episodes ago. And then they went to on of Alaska’s famous cosplay cafes (I bet Palin is somehow to blame for these) where a cow-girl used Chobi as a breast-rest before kidnapping her and forcing her to dress up as fetish bait for her fellow soldiers. Yes, the elite soldier and expected protector of humanity is helpless before a Hooters waitress.

The last third picked up a little bit when Yui showed up to fight them complete with forboding insert song when it showed up, although I’m not even sure what the utility of fighting each other is supposed to be anyway besides seeing who has the bigger penis. The BETA aren’t exactly known for being bipedal mecha you fight one on one. The point when their Japanese sword spirits became one with their mechs through battle was also… uh… well, the less said there, the better. Maybe it’ll at least let them tone down the bitchiness at each other, especially since she should’ve been knocked down a peg or two. …But knowing the show, it’ll just make her even more annoying.

    Wow, you are fast.

  • Is that cowgirl going to be a regular cast member?

  • tubehunter says:

    I want to see them die, these useless bags who are supposed to train for their lives in order to protect humanity. But it seems like a distant dream…

  • Anon says:

    Too bad this is Total Sh … Eclipse and apparently, nobody dies.

    At least nobody dies as far the LNs are likely to be covered, too bad ….

  • TT says:

    If you guys are hating the characters so much why are you watching the anime???

    • Anon says:

      Because hating a character does not mean hating the series, also there is the case its so bad its good (except in this case were its jut mediocre).

      At the rate things are going and knowing (enough about) the source material I doubt I be watching episode 10, I am likely quit when YAMATO DAMASHII gets to insufferable levels.
