episode 238: friendship? hatred? haineko & tobiume

[girls-are-weird.livejournal.com]

caught the episode half a week late, as always ^^;;; but i might as well check to see what everybody else thought...

i wasn't really that impressed with this episode-- i must admit that i found haineko & tobiume's bickering highly annoying, not to mention their trash talk session vs. matsumoto & hinamori... i just thought it was very pointless. and zabimaru still definitely holds the award for trash talking in this arc. and i am now more convinced than ever that tobiume is actually psycho on the inside... she's giving off yandere vibes like whoa.

also, i have no clue whatsoever 'bout what's going on with muramasa. i just don't get it at all, and quite frankly i'm not that interested.

i did, however, laugh like a madwoman when senbonzakura made that blink-and-you'll-miss-it appearance. that was hilarious! it was so random. heh, i loved that. xD

as you might imagine, my part of the episode came towards the end.

he made him forget.

the bastard made hyourinmaru forget.

oh, good going, anime team... the fight hasn't even started and i'm already halfway to bawling like a baby! ;_; seriously, i was expecting him to be angry. i was not expecting him to have forgotten all about toushirou. and good god, that hit me so hard. such desolation! poor thing. and i can't imagine what must be going through shiro-chan's mind now that his zanpakutou forgot about him.

*clutches her heart*

on the other hand, now that i have heard his perfect, perfect voice, i find myself fangirling hyourinmaru even harder ;) he is so awesome, seriously. i kind of understand where the bickering twosome is coming from in this case.

also, the omake WINS! LOL, shunsui, you scoundrel, you... xDDDDD

man, next episode is gonna be so good! ^^

I think with Tobiume (and all the other zanpakutoh) while her (their) personality at the core might be the same as it is normally, she's slightly off due to Muramasa's brainwashing.

Normally she cares for Momo, to the point of mothering her somewhat and always being concerned for her well being. (Kind of like how Momo normally acted towards Toshiro) But once the brainwashing happened, she turned waspish and wanted nothing better than to kill the one she cared about. (Kinda like what happened with Momo)

i hope that's the case, because that girl is seriously starting to bug me. *shakes head*

i think she does care about momo, of course... but there is the possibility that she just may not be as nice as she seems (i mean, just take a look at kazeshini). after all, we know momo herself has a... well, not a "dark" side, but a less-than-stellar side. so perhaps tobiume could have that as well, but slightly more emphasized, in a way that muramasa can use that side of her to pull her to fight for his cause.

i don't know ^^;;; i just hope the bickering stops eventually.
