|Duo| #06 — Oh No! Conventional Weapons!

February 8th, 2015

  

Not True Gun-Haver, the deadliest villain of them all!

Impressions:

Wait. Why’d they switch from a packed colliseum to a mall? Okay, I guess we’re just going with it. That little scene where he pictured what was going to happen as a flipbook? That was the best laugh I’ve had from anime all season. Christ. What were they thinking? And then they followed it right up with Tits asking if Thor saw her panties. I have the very strong suspicion that one of the writers accidentally got the pages to an entirely different show mixed into the script there and everyone just went with it. I also spent most of it waiting for someone to ask if the two of them were going flirt the entire fight. They could have also improved the fight significantly if she didn’t constantly forget that she could shoot her gun and kicked people instead.

That kind of pales to the ass-pull in the last third or so though. A bunch of mall cops wander in and start shredding some mean electric guitar shooting people to carry off Lillith. That just raises the question of why anybody would use these ridiculous blaze weapons when there are guns and body armor available. Then again, the bullets seem to only be able to pierce clothing when it’s convenient and otherwise just bounce off Japanese clothing. And wasn’t this like… a school event? I’d think the PTA might have something to say about a bunch of armed soldiers wandering in to shoot up a class. At least this woeful arc is finally over and on the heels of an episode that was at least excessively inane if nothing else.
