Simoun Ep 15

Hitori, Mada Hitori.
Dominura is shell-shocked over what she saw in the wheel, which we still don't know.
Waporif is full of regret over "defiling" the sacred simoun.
Morinas is pissed with waporif's attitude.
Parietta is failing in her attempts in trying to be second in command, with D's non-functional status.
Aeru is unknowingly contesting Parietta's command, and succeeding quite well.
Limone is so cute in that scene of trying to comfort Dominura.
Neviril is still lost. Duh.

My summary is to the point and very dry. You have to see the ep itself to know what brilliance it was to convey those points stated above with all the not too subtle and yet not too obvious emotions. My expectations are notched a little higher with every ep. =D

Simoun Ep 14

Dominura wants simoun techie Waporif to dismantle Simoun to have a look inside the wheel. Waporif struggles with his decision. Yes... Waporif is a male despite the... er... not flat chest. But that’s not what I’m concerned abt.

This ep was totally abt waporif and morinas!!!from the shower where waporif told morinas abt his past relationship with floe, to the lakeside where they discussed abt simoun being god’s creation or not, and waporif’s double meaning of “not being able to touch what is sacred” (I thought he was referring to both simoun and morinas, since she is a priestess too.) and finally to the resolution and the night visit to the priestess’ chamber. Waporif’s struggle to dismantle or “defile” what is the most sacred to his country and the people was expressed very well, even better, the hidden meaning of his feelings to morinas (at least that was what I thought it had...). Awesome scripting of this ep!





And did I mention Dominura went bonkers after seeing wat was inside the wheel? No i didn't. But I also don't know what she saw.

Simoun Ep13

I regret not blogging earlier when i had the time...bcos now when i'm busy with my stupid attachment, I suddenly feel the urge to blog abt this wonderful anime. In the middle of the show, as usual... (It seems like i do not blog finish ongoing series...oh well.)

Call it yuri, shoujo, GL, watever. It's a fantastic show abt 12 girls' struggle within this war period in their universe. The emphasis of this show is not abt winning the war, but abt how the war affects the girls and bring out secrets and hidden skeletons that happened b4 or during the war.

Ep 13 was a great ep for the 2 main leads, Aeru(golden mickey mouse) and Neviril(pink lady). Aeru wants to try the emerald rimagon with Neviril and just hits her with the request oblivious to the fact that Neviril's previous partner died precisely bcos of that failed attempt. And so it's a "lover's" quarrel. Everyone's shocked with Aeru's lack of tact bordering close to being insensitive. But when Aeru asked "Nani?" I realised no one actually bothered to tell her abt such a touche subject or even warn her to be delicate with Neviril's feeling on this subject. I'm like.. O_O That's what happens when u dance around such touche subjects w/o letting the most brusque one in on the loop. Ha!

So, neviril once again goes into depression mood. And locks herself or isolate herself from the rest... but the fantastic Aeru, after hearing Floe's nonsensical version of wat is "suki" and totally accepting it, went to climb the ship and sneaked into Neviril's room... And surprising pink lady with a kiss. HAHA!!! It's so amusing and yet serious at the same time. I see this ep as a step forward and also a step backward in this relationship. What a nice tango.
