Some Episode 2's out this week

Managed to catch some new episodes... The season is moving along nicely.

Fruit of Grisaia Episode 2
Madan no Ou to Vanadis Episode 2

Both were good and continued almost right where they ended last week. I think if i had to choose between the 2 of them then I'd rather watch Grisaia. It has more characters that are important. Vanadis is definitely one of the better shows this season but it feels like the story is going to mainly revolve around just him and her. Whereas in Grisaia it feels like its more about everyone in the school and they may all get screen time and some story play. 

I did also watch Ore Twintail ni Narimasu... but it was late and I was kind of falling asleep. Not really sure how I feel about it only because the MC actually gets a bracelet that turns him into a girl with twintails. I guess if you're into that sorta thing... the twintails I mean. Don't get me wrong, I like a nice pig tails here and there they can be really kawaii... but he's kind of obsessed with them and willing to take on the form of a chick to protect the world from losing its twintails... Weird to say the least... and no cracking jokes about the fact that i watched it... It was hard enough. I like to give things a chance... so I'll be watching at the very least through episode 4. Wish me luck.

Madan no Ou to Vanadis Ep 1

Madan no Ou to Vanadis!

Alright! Another new series! Seems like a great setup for this show.

Opens to a battlefield where almost all have died. A lone marksman (with a bow i might add) stumbles onto the enemy general with only 4 arrows left. He thinks that if he takes her out they will be less likely to attack them again...

2 arrows used to take out the front guards and the last 2 to actually kill her... That... doesnt work so well. She cuts the arrows in two before they hit her and takes him prisoner. Fade out to find him in the enemy encampment and he finds that she is infatuated with his skill with a bow and wants him to serve under her. Some ecchi parts occur and she seems to dig it... good premise to start a story.

Story has promise and although not completely original there is enough subtle singularities that it can  stand on its own. I'm sure I'll be watching this one from now on.
