Where’s your precious science now?

Uh, yeah, Ben-To. What are you even doing? I almost wish it was worse just so I’d have something amusing to say. Instead it just remains intensely irritating with only the direction and repeated abuse of stills at inappropriate times standing out.

Impressions:

Eh. A little better than last week’s episode, but the show is still kind of drifting aimlessly. Luckily, I like watching these characters much more than a certain other show’s since they’re actually coming alive and have personalities besides talking hushedly in a low pitched voice. Kimi in particular is already charismatic and well-faceted in her relationships with the other characters, her brother especially. The only other particularly big ‘event’ this week was a brief flashback about Horizon being trampled to ‘death’ by a horse, and as you know, super science is powerless against horses.

Still, I really hope things actually pick up soon. Maids apparently killing borderguards is a start, but we’ll see if that’s just more background machinations or actually going anywhere. If not the war breaking out, then at least Toori doing something with Horizonbot. It seems a little odd how they’re dancing around the two of them having any kind of interaction at all, even if just to show that it hurts him to see his girl like that.
