And then......Important Things

Yes all you guys out there, hanging around here waiting for spoilers...it's true:
Rin dies! He kills himself, because he finds out Asa has sex with Itsuki. He wants to take comfort in Kaede, but she found out she's not only a psycho bitch but a yuri bitch and loves Shia. That's it!

Let's come to the point - I hate Asa's new hairsytle. Rin is so psycho himself he'd make a good partner for Kaede...but it was so damn cute. IMHO I could have lived with only the first half of the last episode, the second one was...well, unnecessary? Baka? Low Budget?

Still an in all Shuffle! was just great, the show I was most looking for every week for a long time now. It's the best harem show ever and that's a big problem for me. All others have to compare with Shuffle! and it's not easy, not to say impossible to be as good/better.
Shuffle! rules! Oh my, my, my!

Revealed Truth

Honestly, I did not get Asa's reason...do we know what happened to her father?

To A New Tomorrow

It was clear a super-duper-happy-love-episode was to follow.
They are still making a fuss about kissing and being close to each other but at least Rin and Asa are actually doing things together. It's unrealistic in all other shows two peolpe kiss for the first time and then...they don't contact each other for weeks or so. Baka!

Whereabouts of Feelings

OH MY MY! My, my, my!

No I don't care if there are a lot of Kaede fans...she's a psycho bitch and I lost all my respect for her. Poor Primula, has to stay in one house with Ms Psycho.

All in all the story wasn't too good. It was "too round", I'd have preffered Kaede goes totally crazy and kills herself by jumping from the bridge or so, but it's also okay the way it' now.
This was the episode we all waited for and at least we won the Rin x Asa fight! Tschakka!

Unforgivable Sins

Welcome to the Kaede-Freak-Show - the girl with the scary eyes!
Rin, it's time to move out, I would not stay with this girl under one roof for a minute. Only one I feel sorry for is Primula. Anyone thinks of her!?

Who would have thought Keade can be like this? it relly destroys my image of her and nothing can redo this, whatever there is to come. On the other hand it's rather enjoyable. normally you have someone like her in harem shows who wants to care for the boy forever and ever and ever...but why?
they are all psycho bitches I tell you! Now we know!!!

Unforgettable Memories

OH MY GOD!!! This episode just left me in a status of shock, crying like a little baby! I'm so afraid anything could happen to Asa. She's such a wonderful character, on of the coolest I can think of and now everything goes wrong.
When Kaede was lying in Rin's arms on the bridge and repeated "Gomenasai" a hundred times I felt so soory for her but later...sorry girl, you might have been cooking and cleaning for Rin, but that's the least you could have done after your little psycho trip. That's no love but obsession. Get away from him and Asa!

The Girl Rin Likes

I knew it!!!

And one should never meddle with love affairs!

2005年12月07日

An Honest Feeling

I'm a bit disappointed. Shia's story is so similar to Nerine's!

2005年12月03日

Kikyou

Everything is back to normal...or so it seems. The more I think about the more I see how important those recent episodes are. Slightly a lot of things change. Obviously Nerine is happier than ever before and starts to find her place in this world; gains new friends, learns to fall in love herself. Primula is back talkative and with a bit more emotions I guess. Shia is damn unhappy and has to confrontate with her "dark side" (yes, she is a case for a psychologist, if you ask me) and Rin...he starts to realize he loves Asa. I absolutley insinst on this point of view.
And Kaede? She's the good for cooking girl like always *sigh*

I felt like there've been even more pantyshots then ever before. Was this a little compensation for the drama before? *lol*

Retrieved Things

Hm, many Nerine-screenshots...well, this episode was so important there wasn't even an opening. Like suggested everything ends perfectly with Primula and smiling with open hair I like her so much more!

But the most important scene for me was the one with Asa in the bed (hey, that sounds good ;p). Last time I predicted Shia recognized she was "defeated", this time Nerine got a glimpse something can't be right with Rin and Asa. Damn, those two love each other, it's so clear...or is it only my wish? And normally anime shows never go the way I want them to so it would be too great if Rin and Asa would end up together. Arg, baka....I WANT IT!!!!

Liquorice

This time my caps are taken from Random Curiosity! *gomen*
Another cool Shuffle! drama episode. I'm really curious if the eyecatcher will change again, when the drama arc is over.
Nerine is wuite desperate, but somehow that's areason I start to dislike her a bit...Asa rocks more and more. It's not only I wish she will be Rin's puck, she must!! Some more readers and bloggers have come to the same decision. Did you recognize the chances are high? The moment after Shia says to herself "Seem's like I've lost!" Rin is shown thinking of Asa...yeah!

House of the Setting Sun

Shuffle! kept the good drama already provided last episode, this was even more scary ^^
Still it is a comedy-school-harem-show, so I hope everything will be okay with Primula but for now the dramatic atmosphere is more than enjoyable. No matter what Rin has to pick Asa in the end. She's the only one he can really talk to and like we saw today knows him best. I love that scene she tears Sia, Nerine and Kaede to pieces *hehe* Asa rocks!

2005年10月22日

The Frozen Summer

The first minutes indicated a Nerine arc to start, but then the atmosphere totally changed into sudden drama. I enjoyed it!

There's a new eyecatcher:

2005年10月12日

The Ladies of Summer

It's really no wonder that this episode is rated 15+. It contained more (non-)pantie shots and ecchi scenes like all the recent Okusama wa joshikosei eps ^^
This was a complete filler thing: Funny, enjoyable, side characters. I'm not to interested in Mayumi and the sensei but that are the pleasures of a 24 episodes-show. The story does not hav to be compensated in 12 eps and there's time for something like this.

What were all that scenes with Shia's father eating melons and ice about?

2005年10月03日

Confession in a Moonlit Night

At first I thought perhaps the informations are wrong and Shuffle!'s going to have only 12 or 13 episodes and we are coming to an Shia end but there are going to be more!
I'm not very pleased with the way things are going at the moment. Rin and Shia really seem to like each other, it's no decision wether the others care in my eyes. But perhaps only Shia is a good girl and said what she said because of the others but Rin just recognized there's a whole bunch of girls and he can choose!? So he leaves her behind now...?

The most scary thing was Shia's face in the mirror. What's wrong with her?

2005年09月27日

Beach Survival

Oh my...my, my, my...

MYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY! What's going on there? Asa's boobs and Rin and Shia almost kissing!? A sentence like "I will bear many children to you!" and a preview that looks like Shia and Rin in the moonlight and
my, my, my!

Revolution! I can't stand it!

2005年09月26日

The Panties Date!

To be honest Sia is my least favourite girl to pair up with Rin. Nerine is cuter, Kaede loves him most and Asa is just the coolest of the bunch.
All the time I felt/hoped Rin only went on that date and did all that to make Sia happy, but the last scene really let's you guess he likes her. Damn, I want Rin for myself ^^ His voice actor does such a good job, adorable!
Among all the people the two meet on their date Kareha might be the hardest to cope with *lol* Oh my, my!

2005年09月25日

The Love Scramble

Oh my, my, my ^_~ This episode contained the best two scenes of the complete show so far. No comment about the toilet scene, I watched it more than once ^^ The seiyuus are brilliant.

The other one was the almost kiss. When Asa's mother (who seems more like a little girl) entered the room Rin had this total "Yes, I have an errection but try to hide it!"-voice!

Einfach nur göttlich!

2005年09月22日

Smile

One of the first things after returning from my holidays was to watch a new episode of Shuffle! I can't tell how happy I am there are going to be 24 long episodes *yay*

This time Primula got the spot. I don't really understand why nobody recognizes her plushie is the cat Rin catched so many years ago...or am I wrong? And if you love a plushie that much (I know what I'm talking about ^_~) why is she looking for another cat? Perhaps the old one was given to her with those words about first and last love. The plushie already menas so much to someone else so Primula needs her own love toy (OMG how does THAT sound?).

2005年09月10日

The Place I Belong To

In most parts Shuffle is like all other school-harem shows, but still it's more funny, the characters are really loveable and somebody put a lot of warmth into the story. I love scenes were someone is ill and all come to help. That's what friendship should be like!
Shuffle rocks!

2005年08月14日

Omelette of Happiness

Again, more enjoyable. Nerine is quite cute when she not trys to blow up school, but in my opinion her voice sounds like she's talking through her nose (German expression, don't know if this is the English equivalent).
Did you recognize the plush cat Rin and Rin ^^ got out of the UFOCATCH ist the same Primula's got!?
And this time Rin gave "that look" to Nerine; I would melt away. He really is kawaii! But my favourites characters so far are the demon and god-kings. They rock the show, hontou!

2005年08月07日

Do You Remember?

Dear fellows, welcome to the KKK-Penis-Parade! (the one on the left is especially tiny. Sorry guy, but you won't make Kaede happy!)

Shuffle now found it's way into a daily grind I don't like to much. After the impressing first episode animation and story keep going down and I must say I'm a bit dissapointed. Futakoi comes more and more to my mind, Shuffle is going through all the obligatory episodes for sure: final exams, beach, christmas, valentines day etc. etc.
This time he spent time with Sia, next time it's going to be Rin...by the way we now have Rin, Rin and Rim *lol*

Did you see that look Rin gave Sia when he offers his umbrella (4th picture)?

2005年08月07日

I Wanted To See You

I think you all know I HATE Chibiusa-characters, so Primula won't be my favourite Shuffle-girl for sure *hmph*
Second episode could not keep up with the first but was also funny and I appreciate it they bring up the "you have to decide or you will hurt the girls"-thing already in episode two and not later.

Did you recognize the demon girl is much more polite than the god one?

2005年08月07日

The Man Who Could Become God or the Devil

Humans live together with gods and demons, Rin lives together with his unbelievable cute childhood friend Kaede, Rin isn't too interested in girls but girls seem to gather around him, the two new girls move into the neighbour houses and it's clear from the beginnig Rin has to decide...
That all sounds rather typically, but mixed up with cute characters, good animation, a not so goog soundtrack *lol* and humour that makes me look startled in the first moment to burst out with laughter afterwards you have Shuffle! Besides what I thought (the first episode was ways better than the prolouge) I like it very much so far! I need something with absurd humour from time to time!

Only thing I don't understand is why one of the girls is called Rin, while already Rin is called...well, Rin!
