…And there’s no better thing than to start a blog with a complaint!

Gosh, now I hate bananas too. ;_;

TV series: Da Capo II
Episodes: 1~6

So I started watching Da Capo II, since I just had finished Da Capo and didn’t feel like watching the second season, so I skipped to the actual sequel. Unfortunately, these first few episodes were pretty dissapointing, so I’m not sure if I should keep watching or just drop this show for now.

I mean, everything started okay. The whole “confession-since-first-episode” thing didn’t bother me that much. I don’t really like Koko… she seems pretty generic to me XD, but it isn’t that much of deal since there’s like a 99% chance for her to get dumped by Jyuunichi 2.0 that Sakurai guy.

The show really started going downhill when we got to see more of the real candidates. Let’s check them out, one by one.

• Wataru Itabashi. Yaoi ending ROFL. Yeah, sure… at least it would be better than the last two choices of this post.
• Anzu Yukimura. Even if she has a real story in the game, nobody is going to take this gothic-loli seriously anymore. But… I would’t mind if she keeps her comic-relief role throughout the series, haha. Even if she ended with Yoshiyuki, they wouldn’t last that long (Note: I’m not talking about the ultra-mega-spoiler about Yoshiyuki’s “true nature”… I’m just saying that they aren’t meant for each other. =P)
• Sakura Yoshino. She’s, like, my favorite girl in the series… but, too bad, a Sakura x Yoshiyuki doesn’t seem possible since… nevermind, spoilers.
• Nanaka Shirakawa. “I hate her becasue she isn’t Kotori lol.”, “Shirakawa? = INSTANT WIN”… Her entire popularity seems to be derived from her surname alone. XD Still, my guess is that she won’t be appearing in Sakurai dirty future-predicting dreams anytime soon (translation: Shirakawa fans are going to be screwed again <_<).
• Otome Asakura. She’s Yoshiyuki’s older sister… and supposedly the main heroine of the game, so she seems to be the best choice for the official pairing. But, after five episodes, she hasn’t shown any feelings for our perverted hero, so I’m not sure if she has any chances left. ;_;
• Minatsu Amakase. This girl is your average tsundere except with much less LOVELOVE. Her whole attitude, along with her banana-human ANGST, is mortally annoying. And the “IM A ROBOT WHO RUNS ON BANANAS ROFL” thing just sounds pretty stupid to me (Also, bonus hate-points for being friends with another *****). So, what about her possibilities of becoming the chosen one? OVER NINE THOUSAND!!!1! So far, two episodes and the last part of the OP have been dedicated to her. Really, WTF.
• Yume Asakura.

My nii-san is a perverted loser but I’m, like, a complete loser too, so I have no choice but to fight over him in epic-rooftop-confession-battle style!

Let me get this straight… when I first saw Yume’s character from a screenshot of the game, I thought she looked kinda cute and told myself that she would be one of my favorite characters in the sequel. But when I saw her anime version… “Wait, she looks exactly like Nemu, this won’t be good…” And I was right. x_x

Yume is a Nemu-clone… only 1000 times worse. It’s like the creators decided to take Nemu’s “annoying whiny brat” attitude and made a character based solely on it. What’s even worse… the constant jealously/secret-incest-love scenes give Yume a high chance of becoming Yoshiyuki’s slave definitive *gulp* girlfriend. Seriously, WTFx2.

…

Poor characters and an up-to-now boring plot, DC II practically is “all about the physical fanservice”, which I’m not even interested in. I hope the drama/story manages to improve in the next few episodes, or else I won’t be taking home anything from the DC franchise anymore. ;_;
