Yeah, I don’t feel like a crotch joke this morning.

Impressions:

This is going to be brief since I said pretty much everything I had to say about this show last week and this episode solidified my opinion. Kobato bumbles around being a generic clueless cheery altruistic person until she solves some angst at the last second so that you get a sense that the story is actually progressing. I’m on to your trickery, Clamp.

I think that I’ll probably stick with 11eyes for Tuesdays, assuming that today’s episode isn’t awful at any rate. It’s nowhere near as well made, nor is any major slight meant towards Kobato’s technical production, but like I said last week, this is just a character archetype (and to a lesser extent, story structure) that I really despise and so far, this has’t shown me any indication that it’s going to diverge from that. Plus, there’s no way that this’ll have sadomasochistic personas or pyromancers. Unless I’ve really misjudged this.
