Samurai Girls 06 -- I liked this episode as far as this show goes, that was one of the better fight scenes so far this series. I like the visual style of the show too, with the black "ink spot" filters and stuff. I do wonder though, when did they realize that her brother was evil? Did I miss something or something, because I don't remember that... it just starts this episode with Muneakira and Sen talking about how they think he was responsible for the disappearances, but if there was something where he obviously became their focus of suspicion, I've missed it. Hmm.
Also, if the DVD version gets rid of all the censorship, this will be probably the most fanservice-heavy episode yet... but while often censorship in anime is annoying, maybe because of the unique presentation of it -- the black ink spots, etc -- in this one I don't mind it.
Also, Jubei suggesting a Tenchi Solution to their "several girls love him" problem... gah. Bad. At least everybody refuses. For another negative, Yukimura's explanation for why her bathing suit was better was also pretty dumb. On the other hand, it was interesting to learn for sure that yes, Jubei does know about her other self, they aren't completely separate -- she suggests helping and the other one knows what normal useless Jubei was told.
Sen and Yukimura finally managing to work together (and with Jubei) in the fight was cool, though. It's hard to get much done when they spend all their time fighting each other, though it certainly fits with the plot well and could lead to a cool fight if they ever do really fight. :)
This show is stupid and not exactly good, but I can watch these things anyway for some reason. At least in shows like these the female characters aren't useless...
Panty & Stocking 03 - This show is amazing, definitely the show of the season. It's just so excessive and absurd, I've never seen an anime like it... and I think that's the point. I mean, it's quite juvenile in a lot of ways of course, but they're obviously having a lot of fun with this I think.
