People's minds just aren't working the way I want them. Apparently the best bloggers were capable of doing was summing up the details and bringing more details over from manga. It's not bad as such, but we need someone of SDB's caliber to re-analyze the show. Sadly, there's no mecha to attract Animanachronism.
Sekirei is one of those shows that I instantly take a liking to after picking it up. Looking into the manga with the intention of simply sampling it before the season started, I was instantly hooked. Even after reading all the way to current chapters, watching the animation did not feel repetitive or slow at all. Seven Arcs did a wonderful job with the adaption, staying true to the original story from start to finish.
So, another manga purist. One of his commenters explains the Homura's transformation.
Thankfully, the series makes up for it through its characters. There’s a wide variety of them in the series, and the creators succeed in actually making the viewer care about them. This is also the biggest strength of this series: it knows how to tell its story (which turns out to be much more complex than I originally expected) and keep the viewer interested. Overall, it was a very pleasant surprise.
It was a surprise all right. Boobs the size of Divergence Eve and a story... Who thought!
Sankaku Complex (ADULT BLOG):
The usual mechanism of mysterious foreground objects is used, along with simply not drawing the nipples. Expect sudden nocturnal bursts of blinding sunlight from lesser stations. The pleasures of regional physics are sure to return, though this is probably the best version.
Sadly, it's true. Just as soon as I congratulated the creators of Sekirei for not doing it, they completely switched into "buy our DVDs" mode. I don't know if I should second-guess them and proclaim a rankings-driven decision... But I can see that Sekirei was underblogged.
