Sukisyo and Bleach 108

[grassangel]

Beacause we don't have two episodes of Bleach this week, I'm going to review other things as well.

Sukisyo, which Lina and Stae introduced me to and Ghost hunt, the animation of the manga series I'm so fond of and nobody else has heard about and Black Lagoon, something which drew me in via it's intro music.

Sukisyo is a yaoi/shonen-ai anime. It kind of follows in the footsteps of Gravitation and Loveless in that the character have pastel toned hair that leans on the pink/purple range in the case of the uke.

However, I find the actual story (at least in the first two episodes) to be more Galaxy Angel and AIR in telling. GA as in comedy, and AIR as in there seems to be two stories being told at the same time.
Of course, mix in liberally some CLAMP school detectives and some Ouran and that pretty much sums up the art and story style for me. 
All boys school that seems to be extensive, lots of fanservice I suppose (for the fangirls/boys) and a club/association that's called the do-it-all.

Very S-A style art. Unfortunately, one of the main characters hair reminded me of Bakura from YGO straight off the bat so that wasn't much help. ^_^;; 
I liked quite a few of the characters, the main one being Matsuri (?) the long blonde haired one who is very bishie indeed. He's the matchmaker and throws Sora and Noa in all sorts of trouble.
The others are Nanami and Morita (?) who are affectionate towards the trio and act kind of like parents. (In no way helped by the fact Nanami looks like a woman) They're cute as a pairing too. >w<
Oh and there's one thing which intruiges me the most, the three mains have primary coloured hair. Red/pink, blue and yellow.

Bleach.
Same movie OP and ED as in the weeks before. Same Senna being weird, same wanting to see the movie.

I think Kariya can't write K properly… He did an X…. And I think we missed something like five minutes of this battle… Where the hell did that go??
Right… How many forms does Messer have again?? And how many times do you have to do an amazing revelation about it?
MAN CLEAVAGE!!! And boy, does that tattoo make it obvious…
And evil genius reveals his plans and intentions.
But he does make the point that everyone is crazy and he's the only sane one.

Wha? Renji and Rukia out of nowhere? And Rukia's being totally OOC, SHE'S BEING TOO WORRIED OVER ICHIGO!

Heh, more flashback like scenes, Move move. And bright yellow eyes. 
HA! Take that Kariya! Go RanTao!
Half nekkid Kariya fight!

Yay! Our favourites are being shown. And again with the Kira-Shuuhei team… *is sick of it* At least Yama-jii is being sensible… What's Kageyoshi again?? 'Cos Bya-san just appeared again. Yay! He's come for his little sister. And Yoruichi has appeared as well.
And why the hell are you talking about your plans infront of him?
Yoruichi looks too innocent there… WAY too innocent. Yeah yeah Ichigo, we know you want to keep the spotlight. 
If you're gonna use shunko, Yoruichi, strip! Or at least get rid of that orange jacket you're so fond of… Energy around back and arms as you said.
Yeah, the Kariya battle ain't too interesting. OoH! Lightning rod! Yay for disposed swords!

Ooh Noble words. Ooh something that the fanfic writers need to attack, Ichigo carrying the weight of protecting the ones he loves and then that of protecting everyone. 
Duality. *is sad* Ha! Much 'Hime angst over Ichigo.
We got like our last glance of Hanatarou and Ganjyu… And in a bloody Kariya speach!
OOH, big 'splodey. And reminiscent of another fight.

And that was sudden…

So the tenth is the start of arrancar arc???
Ichigo, Rukia and Renji all sitting together??

And no, we got the last glance of Ganjyuu in that omake.
