Railgun – 05: Alte Kameraden

Railgun 05 09

Well a bucket of sweat saves a gallon of blood, that it does…

After a wee bit of background on Biribiri and her boy troubles we get some glorious fluff about Kuroko and Uiharu. While both are rather young in years they were quite adorable in when still in elementary school. I was surprised that Kuroko was so negative about going to Tokiwadai and had some very nasty things to say about the Tokiwadai no Ace. Uiharu however seems to have always been into yuri and imagined going to school with Long Haired Kanako and Ayarin, I wonder how far her fantasies go…

At any rate Kuroko seems to be Alphard onee-sama and Liang Qi’s adopted love child given how she has strong similarities to both. Her combat abilities were superb for a young girl at her age and her courage was beyond questioning. Still while herèlan is in force it needs to be sharpened by experience which I shall enjoy watching her gain. Kuroko’s first opponent was a champion marble player gone bad but despite the difference in size Kuroko bested him and made a firm stance on her ideals. Perhaps one day Kuroko could be the hero Alphard wanted to be, but at any rate in Kuroko Alphard and Liang Qi’s spirit shall live on. I will follow Kuroko’s career with great interest… Uiharu might have zero combat ability but I like how she stood up against Kuroko who forgot their childhood promise. At the very least Uiharu isn’t spineless and can stand up for what she thinks is right. Ah to be young again full of ideals and immune to cynicism. Overall I liked it better thanCalawain because I think Kuroko is awesome in her own right, even if she wasn’t assaulting her onee-sama.

Calawain’s Admiration of Railguns

Pretty mediocre episode overall, with fillertastic nonsense mostly surrounding Uiharu, by far the weakest character of the four mains. Reckless loli Kuroko was rather awesome though, no guts no glory. The distinct lack of Biribiri really took a toll on the quality of this episode.

Railgun 05 17

I habve prayed long for a year of yuri and BEHOLD!

Railgun 05 20

Well a bucket of sweat saves a gallon of blood, that it does…

Railgun 05 21

Kuroko would rather write love letters to onee-sama…

Railgun 05 22

Railgun 05 23

Well that diffused her anger quick…

Railgun 05 24

Oh ho…an illicit affair between two imoutos…

Railgun 05 25

That’s one way of getting excuses to spend time together…

Railgun 05 26

Take your time.

Railgun 05 27

It’s just not fun when Uiharu doesn’t get all flustered.

Railgun 05 28

I bet…

Railgun 05 29

Komori rather enjoys her yuri couples.

Railgun 05 30

Tenderly of course.

Railgun 05 31

I see that the Yuri is strong in this series, just look at those two girls ogling Uiharu…

Railgun 05 32

Oh it’s confession time…

Railgun 05 33

Railgun 05 34

So can you you please accept Kuroko as you petite soeur…

Railgun 05 35

Kuroko wants to kick ass and take names…

Railgun 05 36

Kuroko wants to outshine all the others like her mother Alphard onee-sama.

Railgun 05 37

Railgun 05 38

The Yuri is strong in this one.

Railgun 05 39

Someone likes to pet the loli…

Railgun 05 40

There is no “I” in team but there is a “we” in weapon…

Railgun 05 42

Uiharu be stalking.

Railgun 05 43

Railgun 05 44

O_o

Railgun 05 45

Looks like it.

Railgun 05 46

Oh but when you are older you will want it the other way around.

Railgun 05 47

It was destiny…

Railgun 05 48

Railgun 05 49

It totally should be like this.

Railgun 05 50

But it is better to live in a fantasy of Kanako’s creation that go along with moribund reality.

Railgun 05 51

Hard to believe she would be gushing about being a proper lady and sipping tea later in life.

Railgun 05 52

Well they will raise that level cap in the next WoW expansion.

Railgun 05 53

Integrated scouter…?

Railgun 05 59

I suppose so assuming he plans to hang himself…

Railgun 05 60

So stern this one is…

Railgun 05 61

I see that Alphard onee-sama’s love of boots has rubbed off on Kuroko too…

Railgun 05 62

She’s an ojou-sama from a distinguished family that has been continued for a thousand years, skilled in both literary and military arts,  with wit and beauty, the intensity of summer, the grace of autum, the pride of winter, and the gentleness of spring

Railgun 05 63

All too easy…

Railgun 05 64

Why are you using a fruit knife fruit cake?

Railgun 05 74

You need more training, not ready for the burden were you…

Railgun 05 75

Back in those days Biribiri was known as the Pink Muffler.

Railgun 05 76

Railgun 05 87

At least Uiharu is not taking all the credit…

Railgun 05 88

The Pink Muffler Strikes AGAIN…

Railgun 05 89

Komori doesn’t share Kuroko’s love of underwear, seems she has no love for underwear period…

Railgun 05 01

I am going to hold you to that.

    The few similiarities between this episode and the last just make episode four seem a lot worse. Maybe it’s just that I watched these two episodes back to back and my recollections of both are fresh enough to pick up broadly similiar themes.

    I just must say why do all bank roberries unskilles morons …but hey there was a little girl who beat a mature man, I mean guns were once again totally useless. It must be due to other physical laws,at least there was some action. But yes we are talking here about Kuroko the allmighty (descendant of Alphard and Liang Qi)><).
    But seriusly champion marble player gone bad and pink muffler rofl :D

    Ah, so Gakuen City is where the A-LAWS developed their automatons that would one day mercilessly cut down the Celestial Being terrorists. Though the one in the bank must have been an early prototype as it was easily defeated. Hopefully the 00 movie features an elite squad of ability users led by adult Biribiri and Kuroko who board and dispose of the entire crew of the new CB carrier.

    I generally found Uiharu annoying before, but a little development this episode makes her a lot more likable.

    @ ExecutiveOtaku A-LAWS huh nice i could see that lol.

    this episode was alright back story on the 2nd main character i guess thats what kuroko is, ill agree Uiharu was a bit annoying. Was cool to see Misaka pop up even though she did not do much, hopefully the show picks up with some more action!.

    @Hafl
    It is all that Spiky-kun’s fault!

    @Emperor
    Robbing a bank these days is rather dumb anyways considering what could go wrong, I suppose the smarter criminals steal electronically in the future. Kuroko is the result of a most glorious union, long may she SHINE IN THE NAME OF ZEUS.

    @ExecutiveOtaku
    Well Konori does bear a striking resemblance to Katie…

    @foshizzel
    You will get you Biribiri goodness in ep 06, I guarantee it…

    I bet this means Canaan x Alphard = Biribiri.

    She sure got around after losing that arm.

    Biribiri needs to get better at the CQC to live up to her heritage though. Canaan’s hax powers + Alphard’s combat ability = oh shit.

    …No actual comment on the episode since I’m not really sure how I feel about the direction we’ve been going in.

  7. Posted November 8, 2009 at 1:28 am | Permalink

    Sweet, cant wait till 6 then! ;D i really wanna see more of Misaka and not so much of the kuroko…

  8. Posted November 8, 2009 at 11:20 am | Permalink

    I don’t buy how a 11 year old girl could beat up a grown man… but then again it’s a grown Japanese dude who’s probably 5″4 and weighs 100 lbs, not exactly a football linebacker.
