Evil Blondie (her name's Lafter) is also voiced by Cristina Vee. Meaning that tonight's Toonami block has had a(n insane) character of hers show up for a good portion of a 90-minute stretch. It's like the JYB Power Hour all over again!

Also, Mika is getting wrecked. Like, seriously wrecked. Hopefully these chicks don't end up like the Shrike Team.

It is refreshing to see Mika not be able to effortlessly trample everyone in Barbatos. He's already got a muted personality due to... whatever he's got going on; Mika being an Invincible Hero (and not in the amazing way) would make him rather bland (IMO).

Recap episodes aren't always bad, but this one looks like it's going to be rather dry.

I find that the most irritating thing about recap episodes is that they make you feel obligated to watch until the end just in case the final scene actually advances the plot.

[up] Whatever you do, don't skip the ones in Revolutionary Girl Utena. They're actually integral to the story.

Sometimes there's enough funny commentary to make recaps worth watching, like (as I mentioned above) in Champloo and Korra. But those sorts do seem to be few and far between.

I like how they completely skipped over the food hunter's recap.

If there was one thing I enjoyed seeing again it was how fast that big, bad, mass murderer got roflstomped.

He really should have reconsidered his life choices. Then he wouldn't have watched his own heart stop beating.

Damn I didn't even notice this was the last episode of the arc.

Just tuning in near the end by the way. tongue

Also heh, Rin really is fucking useless.

Thanks for the feels, Kishimoto!

The worst part is... things continue to dovetail from this point on.
