KILL LA KILL ep12: your father was a dirtbag ninja, your rival is a dirtbag samurai, your nemesis is a dirtbag lolita, and your friend comes from a dirtbag family

How do I even encompass in words the groundswell of emotion that I was feeling watching this episode? It was equal parts hype and exposition, a battle of ideals and monsters. And even with all that was revealed, the most enticing part is what this episode foretells for the future. Read more…

KILL LA KILL ep11: oh no! It’s a loli!

Ryuuko’s fight with Nonon continues in this episode, and here we see that she seems to truly be mastering Senketsu’s use. She defeats Nonon not once, but twice, and using the same technique more or less. The first part of the fight was resolved when she was able to use Senketsu’s Gale form to outmaneuver Nonon, and send one of her recorder missiles back at her. With Nonon grounded, everyone assumed the little tart wouldn’t be able to continue, but instead the Read more…

KILL LA KILL ep10: Prince Know-it-All & Princess Death-from-Above

You know I was about to say that this was the most disappointing episode of the series so far for me, but I jumped the gun a bit. This definitely a transitional episode with much more insanity waiting. And to say that I’m disappointed is to show how spoiled I’ve become by the previous episodes.  Gifted with the exquisite violence and perviness, there’s nothing more you could ask from this show. It’s doing its damnedest to entertain.  I really shouldn’t be complaining when I can experience the joy of watching high schoolers fight to death for love, revenge and the right to wear fancy swagalious uniforms.  Try finding that on Netflix!

KILL LA KILL ep9: the Double Standard of Stripper Gear versus Gimp Suits

The grandest of displays of resolve can turn into mere arrogance at the drop of a hat. That I suppose is the lesson to be learned from this episode. Though regardless of the results, I will say I’m impressed by the sheer will of a man to take such punishment on willingly. I just wish he’d keep that kinkiness to his own private bedroom.

KILL LA KILL eps 7 & 8: you’ll never be satisfied with mere victory and happiness.

My deepest apologies for the hold up.  Even one week without anime is too long.  And I’m not wasting any time getting back in the saddle and catching up.  And there’s no better show out right now to motivate me and imbue me with the energy to watch a “butt-ton” of anime than KILL LA KILL.  Let’s do this!

KILL LA KILL ep5: Nudists vs. Exhibitionists!

Something interesting came to mind when watching this episode.  How does it strike a female viewer or the character in a show when a guy tells you to disrobe “for your own good”?  Maybe it’s the crazy, hyper-sensitive atmosphere of America and its politics that has me thinking this way.  But I can only imagine what kind of firestorm some of these scenes would cause if exposed to the wrong people.  That said, I’m glad none of those idiots are watching this show right now!  Ha ha!  So screw them and their tiny brains!  I’m here to watch some damn good anime!

Check-in Station: KILL LA KILL ep1 (this is so good I’m embarrassed, or is it that outfit?)

KILL LA KILL ep1 is AWESOME! I’m getting a very hype, very feel-good mix of GURREN LAGANN, Tenjou Tenghe and every revenge story ever told. It isn’t about the story, it’s about the emotions. The pure excitement that came from watching this episode. I can’t hold it in anymore-! AAAAAH! Read more…
