Episode 15 concludes Mai's story with a BANG! :shock:

I was ready to cry out like a baby when Mai committed suicide by sticking her sword onto her stomach. Thank goodness the chibi Mai who has the power to heal saved her.

We really learned a lot about Mai's past, and what the demons were really are (which by the way was a figment of her imagination). Heck, the field where Yuuichi and Mai used to play with was actually where the school was located. I thought it was really interesting that she has the ability to heal, but a bunch of people still feared her.

actually its more like she was creating the demons to fight against just to uphold her promise that she'd keep defending that field till he returned. (Without realizing it herself) The school was built on that field, so the school became the battleground. I think originally the people tearing up the field to build the school was what she was calling demons, though I could be wrong.


Kyo ani expanded on her arc alot more than the original Toei animation version did. Its to be expected since its now 26 episodes, but I rather liked the changes.

Next we get to see Sayuri's story, yay!

When Mai jumped off the building with a Kamikaze Sword Chop, it was MUCH more [HOLY SHAT WTFBBQ!] feeling to it...

Never looked sexier...

The beginning of Episode 16 has some sort of epilogue for Mai's arc (with Mai's hair down...WOOT!). On another note, not only Shiori is next, but the episode also starts to delve into Ayu's story a bit
especially with her overreaction of Akiko getting sick. Seems like Ayu will do anything she can to make her better.


With all that happening,
Yuuichi reminded Shiori about the "date" he planned once everything with Mai is done. It's your usual activities like the arcade, but they later had a snowball fight and built a tall snowman. And during that time, a remixed version of "Last Regrets" was playing. Man, I haven't heard that song is a LONG time!
8-)

And of course tragedy strikes when Kaori contacted Yuuichi that Shiori is in fact dying.


Something tells me that Shiori's arc won't be as lengthy as the other girls' arcs which is understandable.

Episode 17 was pretty solid (especially the art and animation) since it's [spoiler]mostly the "final days" moment of Shiori before her demise! Well at least we get to see her in a school uniform and discovered she hates spicy foods (especially tabasco sauce). :o

Also, despite that pep talk Kaori gave to Yuuichi, she still refuses Shiori's existance.[/spoiler]

Looks like next episode is going to be a killer. :cry:

Episode 18.....

[spoiler]It's Shiroi's birthday party, and a lot of the peeps from school including that girl who said that Shiori and Kaori are related are the guests. The dance Yuuichi and Jun Kitagawa did during the part was unexpectedly hilarious! I was expecting those two to break out the Bouken Densho Densho dance! :lol:

The last couple minutes of this episode is one hell of a cliffhanger! Is Shiori going to live?!! :shock: [/spoiler]

Next episode is probably going to conclude that and start the final story arc which deals with Nayuki and Ayu.
