High School DxD #08 — Merry Leap Day To Us All

February 23rd, 2012

  

My stories are on right now!

Non-Impressions:

My NBC Thursday night shows are on, so I processed and uploaded caps during a commercial break. It’s Leap Day (somewhere) so it doesn’t count anyway. Real post coming in probably an hour or two, but I think I could write it just from looking over the caps. Or rather, I can tell that nothing of value or note besides Issei’s eternal blue balls occurs until the last 7 or so minutes.

Aaaand, I was pretty much right before. An episode of shenanigans for the first 15 minutes followed by "Hey! I’m Rias’s fiance, that’s why we’ve been spazzing out over marrying the whole show. I’m like you… but EVIL, and I’ll be the last boss of the show." He’s also named Phoenix and almost every single part of his introduction, as well as half the exposition has Issei repeat back what was just said. Is there anything about this show that isn’t padded as hell? And yes, I am including the girls in that. I swear, Asia gains at least two cup sizes in the ED, which still remains about the only part of the show I perk up enough to pay attention to.

I guess they’re not embarrassing themselves with stills as action anymore, but this isn’t an improvement either. Maybe if the shenanigan portions were infested with his annoying shrieking friends… or his annoying shrieking self either for that matter. If Issei was just written out entirely, words cannot express how much improved this show would be. Would it really be so bad if they just lounged around naked or comforted each other instead of having some annoying insecure teenage boy narrating what’s right in front of him or parrotting what was said constantly? The bird in ToraDora contributed more to conversations than Issei generally does. Not to mention probably knows how to handle a woman.

    Yes. Transcripts my ass. I want to be in on the research meetings!

    Although I confess a curiosity for the transcripts of the budget meeting where it was explained that they’d have to hire strippers in various body forms to properly do the motion modeling…
