Episode 3

Well, that was maybe the dullest episode of anime I've watched in four years. The whole thing was exposition! There was the hint of a fight with Skater-kid, but it was over in a flip, almost before it started.

The highlights of the episode were the following:

This ass shot

and this shot where her left breast is trying to escape

Ha, this line cracked me up. I think it's just supposed to be a perspective thing but you're right, it does look a bit odd.

Funny how two of the buttons/studs on her jacket are stand-ins for her nipples. Could it be any more obvious?

Hey the show has enough pretty boys for the girls. Nothing wrong with giving us guys some eye candy too.

There is when it makes the characters look like deformed mutants. Laughing

Well I do prefer flatter chests, but that ass shot is pretty nice.

You know, that lass looks a lot like Aria Link from Letter Bee:



A larger picture from a better angle.

I have to say that Aria looks a lot prettier and more respectable, even with that silly half-jacket she's wearing. I mean hey, at least she's wearing sensible shoes and a skirt that actually covers her arse.

The woman in K looks like she just got off from her side-job as a dominatrix and only had time to throw on a coat. She also looks like her plastic surgeon only had two implants of unequal size the day of the operation.

You are of course referring to this scene. I enjoyed that too.

-Episode 3-
Maybe someone should make a list of how many anime characters this show rips off from?

Good news: We find out the guy "Yoshiro" killed was, obviously, a member of the Fire King clan & they what revenge. Kuroh's master "Colorless King " wants Yoshiro dead because he's next in line. So, there actually is a point to this show.
And...fanservice for everybody!! ^O^

Bad news: We don't know why Yoshiro as the new "Colorless" king would be a bad thing. Kuroh is still duller than cotton balls (although it was kinda cute seeing him fanboy over his recorder). One giant exposition dump.

So-so news: This show has "Shounen terminology".
I.e most shounen action manga/anime have words or phrases specific to that series (think Bankai in Bleach).
Strain, Sword of Damocles, Weismann Level: I'm gonna have to check the Fan Wiki again.

Episode 3

I too took note of that scwne with blue girl, it was kind of obvious with that behind shot. Also thought of Aria from Letter Bee with her, good to see I was not the only one.

Isn't it a bad idea to heat up a loaded gun, especially if you are holding it and the barrel is pointed at you? My complaint still holds white haired pretty boy was not trying hard enough to convince the guy there was not ebough evidence.

Actually, when someone say about blonde girl in blue, my first thought would be Riza Hawkeye from FA

Somehow I think the recent episodes are not so gorgeously animated like the first episode. The animation is still way amazing though.
There are a lot of explanation in this episode. We still don't know what exactly Neko is, but Yatogami seems to know it.
The plot is moving pretty nice in this episode, and Yatogami is unexpectedly hilarious.

Next episode, I feel like it'll be normal school anime with a lots of fanservices, I think ;p

It seems to be a running theme. All three women have their blonde hair tied up at the back and wear similar blue outfits, and are high-ranking subordinates of men in a military-style organisation. Surely that isn't a coincidence, right?

Blond woman in sharply-pressed blue military uniforms and second to a general or authority.

Funny how the breasts keep getting bigger as the years roll by.

Riza from FMA (2003) = normal/average size

Aria from Letter Bee (2009) = sexily large rack (see the pic I posted before where she's getting dressed), still a manageable size

Seri from K (2012) = pornstar size, will have crippling back problems in later life

Yeah, maybe that kind of girl is popular in anime. And actually, man, those uniforms look so similar.

If anyone can find another blonde girl in blue, we should discuss it here. Not K related, but it is fun Laughing
