IT is our watch of the week – "If only we knew"

null
Impz at 1:01 – You know, after having that pitiful OP run on for 12 odd episodes, anything sounds good.

If you are wondering about the title, it’s Impz trying to be smart by using my girlfriend and my nickname to an abbreviation of IT. Thirteensugars has privately remarked that no one wants to know her response when she is watching an anime. I believe that it will be fun to have a chronological review by two random people on the Internet. Honestly, I think it will be a refreshing experience for anyone who usually watches anime by yourself. Watching an anime with the opposite sex is always a very interesting proposition, and I highly recommend you to try it out.

No, I do not transcribe to the myth that anime viewers have an inability to socialize and communicate with the opposite sex. If Thirteensugars and me can watch anime together despite being two continents apart (and chatting at the same time), I see no reason for any of you to have any valid excuse. Anyway, viewing anime with a girl who has interest in anime is just a very refreshing experience. If you do not believe me, just read our chronological experience into the world of viewing anime together.

For this week, we will be talking about Special A Episode 15. Viewer discretion is not required, as we hope to brainwash you to our level of intelligence. Both of us are rather noisy when we watch our anime, which is why you will see the amount of rubbish we sprout out. The dialogue is heavily edited since I am remembering from memory. Nonetheless, the essence is there, and it allows me to make fun of her (a little). Her many nicknames (and mine) are censored out in this script to protect whatever is left of our reputation online.

Hikari is worried over the date on Sunday, as Kei seems so stressed. She does not know what she should do to help…

Impz: Seems like Kei is stressed over the date on Sunday?
Thirteensugars: It is saying that Hikari is the one who is stressed, you dumb dumb *****. Hikari does not know how to relieve Kei’s stress, which is why she is feeling vented.

null

“Are you scared of going on a date with me, Nii-san?”

Thirteensugars: Hikari always treats everything proposed by Kei as a challenge, including this date.
Impz: That is why she is so dumb. Honestly, she is so thick in the head that it’s amazing. I kind of pity Kei a little, having to love such a retard.
Thirteensugars: Hikari is NOT a retard! She’s just a bit dense.
Impz: Same thing.
Thirteensugars: Go DIE.

null

“I need to find Kei for the Goukon!”

Impz: I really am sick of seeing this dumb voice and face of Kei’s father. I am surprised Kei has not tried to kill this bastard of a father.

null

Kei is already waiting for Hikari on the Sunday date.

Thirteensugars: Kyaaaaaaaaaaa! Kei-sama!
Impz:

null

Hikari, with her intense training on shoujo manga, tries to pull off the stunts learned to make sure that she wins the challenge for this date.

Impz: She is so dumb. Seriously, you know…
Thirteensugars: Shut up! I cannot hear what she is saying.
Impz: …Anyway, she is trying too hard with the lame efforts.
Thirteensugars:

null

Kei, on the other hand, does not seem affected (probably a little shocked and disgusted) over her clearly strained efforts.

Impz: It’s time for Scream!
Thirteensugars: Hmmm?
Impz: Never mind, it is just this art painting.
Thirteensugars: Oh, that inaudible scream art painting that depicts agony, pain and an indescribable pain of sadness?
Impz: Let’s just continue watching before I make an insult on you.

null

Kei simply smiles at Hikari’s last effort, and tells her to enjoy herself. He also tells her that he will take the lead in this date.

Thirteensugars: Kei is so cute!
Impz: Yea, he is. I cannot believe I am sympathizing Hikari. What’s wrong with me?! She is the one making him suffer!

null

Kei realizes that his father has planted some MIB around him to get him back for the Goukon with Sakura. Kei told Hikari to wait at the shopping complex, so that he can handle them by himself. Nonetheless, when Hikari realizes that Kei is going for a Goukon, Hikari says that he should go instead of running away, because it will cause trouble to his father.

Thirteensugars: Kei is so cute even when he is angry!
Impz: That is the thing about Hikari I hate the most. She is already the character I hate the most, and she always tries to make herself detestable by hurting Kei even more.

null

Just when Kei turns away, Hikari holds on to him.

Thirteensugars: Aww, she’s holding on to him. She’s holding on to him!
Impz: Aww.
Thirteensugars: Awww.

null

Hikari starts to blush when she realizes what she has done. She fumbles along, as she cannot explain the reason why she did that to stop Kei.

Impz: Hikari is so funny when she blushes… I cannot believe I just said that.

null

Kei is pleasantly surprised that Hikari held on to him.

Thirteensugars: Kei-sama is so handsome and cute. Kyaaaaa!!!!
Impz: You know, I am just going to make an entry in THAT Anime Blog writing about the live commentary that we have when we watch an anime.
Thirteensugars: Don’t you dare! People online already think that I am a bimbo.
Impz: You mean you are NOT a bimbo?
Thirteensugars: Screw you, *****.

null

The faggot Kei’s father appeared, telling Kei to go to a Goukon with Sakura.

Impz: Go choke and die, faggot.
Thirteensugars: Don’t be so mean.
Impz: Whatever.

null

Sakura, the Goukon partner, appears.

Thirteensugars: Oh, she’s so cute. She’s cuter than the girl that you like in this anime.
Impz: You mean Akira. Akira is awesome in her own way. Sakura isn’t too bad. I should have a harem.

null

Sakura does not seem to be too interested in the Gouka arrangement as well. In the forest, she simply grabbed Hikari away for a meal. It turns out that she really hates people who lie, and has a righteous heart. She hits off with Hikari very well.

Impz: She feels so much like Akira without the mole. I am loving Sakura already.
Thirteensugars: Ya, she is like a mix of Hikari’s righteous behavior and Akira’s swooning side.
Impz: Don’t you dare insult Akira or Sakura by including Hikari’s name.

null

Sakura says that she likes the ojii-sama type of guy, and Kei feels more like a demon. Sakura also asks Hikari to find out the type of girl Kei likes.

Impz: It seems that she likes the more princely type of man.
Thirteensugars: Kei-sama, kyaaaaa!
Impz: … What?

null

Akira is worried over Hikari, since Hikari has to spend a day with the evil Kei. It turns out that Kei is not here, and Hikari wonders if she is all right.

Impz: Akira-sama! I miss you so much.
Thirteensugars: Stupid fanboy. You Kyaa too much.
Impz:

null

Hikari tries to find out what type of girl Kei likes, and obviously gets a very mean retort for her inconsiderate character. Kei realizes that Hikari is asked by Sakura to find out about this.

Impz: I really pity Kei now. Hikari’s retardation knows no bounds.
Thirteensugars: He’s mine!

null

Sakura, after knowing that Kei loves Hikari, suspects that Hikari is not finding out information for Sakura because she is in love with Kei herself. Hikari denies it but starts to have tears in her eyes.

Thirteensugars: See, Hikari already is in love with Kei, but she is so caught up in her competitive spirit that she does not know that it is love.
Impz: I DON’T CARE.

null

All’s well that ends well, as Sakura finds an Ojii-type character in Jun.

Impz: What is with the gay pairings in S.A. Sakura with the gay fag Jun? What is wrong with this anime!
Thirteensugars: Oh shush you.

    Kei and Hikari need to die. Period. Tell me when the show ends like the non GONZO Romeo & Juliet and Tadashi usurps the show.

    Interesting approach to blogging an episode and a nice one at that. Sounds like you two have a lot of fun when watching anime.

    Unfortunately my last girlfriend barely spoke any English and German subs make my stomach turn around. As for German dubs … no just no, they should be forbidden by law …

    @Issa-sa: awww, so mean. Well, I don’t really like Hikari too much as you can see from our commentary, but I think Kei is all right. You are too mean toward Kei already. No, I am not fanboying Kei. I rather fanboy Akira-sama!

    @Versus: Ya, it usually comes to me talking way too much in the conversation or saying something stupid that annoys the shit out of her. Then she will tell me to shut up, which never works. So, we just rinse and repeat.

    It’s a pity that she barely spoke any English. It is always fun to watch anime because you feed off the other person when viewing. I cannot stand watching anime myself in general. I like to share my thoughts.

    What happened again? Oh yeah, I dropped this show at episode http://omisyth.wordpress.com/2008/06/30/special-a-12-hikari-is-officially-more-annoying-than-tenma-tsukamato/ episode 12 after Hikari made me want to kill her with a rusty axe.

  5. Posted July 16, 2008 at 8:14 am | Permalink

    I did a post on why Hikari was so very, VERY annoying and dropped this show at episode 12. Best decision I’ve made since 4 weeks ago.

    Never had a problem w/ Hikari/Kei… hell I stopped caring about them in favor of the other couples during the show. And currently, the anime is moving through some of the best chapters in the manga…

    @Omisynth: A fellow Tenma hater? I AM IN LUCK. Honestly, I think Tenma is just way more annoying than Hikari. Hikari has a redeeming factor in being nice and loyal to people. Tenma is absolutely junk crap that should just die and rot to death.

    @Tekky99: Awww, I think that Kei is just a very poor thing to like someone so retarded. i care way more for tadashi x akira. ^^

    I wonder if the anime will get to Ryuu and his trap girlfriend.

    Ugh… Hikari’s character is why I generally stay clear from shoujo period… I’m gonna give this show a chance, but from the various opinions lurking in blogs and forums it’s just another ‘one-of-them-is-so-dense-it’s-the-plot’ story. Whatever happened to good shoujo? (it’s so rare) A girl can get tired of watching too much shonen and yaoi, thank you very much.

    was actually more impressed by episode 14 (the other side of akira and the chemistry between her and tadashi). i guess this episode has its own charm. got a good laugh out of hikari’s clumsy efforts. dropping it at this point in time would be a bad idea.

    Ha ha ha!This was a killer.
    I can’t say that I love this show (It’s :soooooo stupid !? No ?! Ridiculous ? No!? That’s not either ?Than I can’t find the word , to bad :p.) but I have to addmit that it makes me laugh a lot and I really enyoi Kei (sama) and the other characters development.
    Hikari ?Well Hikari is …just Hikari.I think she’s the most unreal character from the whole show.I mean , how dense can a persone get? But she is cute in her own way….

    Kei is such a patient person, and so so so so so gorgeous. .. Hikari is starting to drive me nuts, How can she not notice???! At least we got some tears out of her, I hope is too late by the time she realizes ´cause I think she would deserve it!
