天下制覇

 

I was sure hoping for a whole bunch of Gameboy graphics plus exposition.

Impressions:

So, Kill la Kill, what will we be spending our time repeating this week? Let’s spin the wheel. Oh, and it’s landed on exposition. Again. And another series of shouted speeches about how great Satsuki is? Wonderful. And you know she’s great because while she may have also never won a single battle in the entire show, she’s lost one or two fewer than them. Between the blaring… blaring music and the glare-riffic sunset, the only way they could have made that scene cheesier would have been by slapping someone in the face with brie.

Anyway, Nui loses her arms, which apparently counts this time because magic, and then the rest of the episode is just them masturbating to Satsuki and Ryuko teaming up and hoping to god that the audience is touching themselves along with them. There’s some pissing around about yet another space plan of space aliens using space crap to space kill the space planet, but since the cliffhanger is just space monsters dropping out of the space sky or rising from the space ocean for space giggles, the whole thing reeks of padding even more than usual. Sure, they were evil before, but now they have space weapons. More of them. Is the ante upped yet? Do things matter now?
