Special A 16 - Every member is special.

July 23rd, 2008 | Category: Special A

Flavor: Sweet

So, just after Sakura idolizes Jun some more and asks him to go out with her, he immediately rejects her… and the rest of the episode is spent with Sakura chasing after Jun and him running away from her (with the help of Ryuu and his twin sister, of course). Apparently, Jun doesn’t want to date Sakura because he’s afraid she might become a victim of his ’secret’, just like it happened with a girl he liked in the past.

Special A 15 - She’s realized she’s dumb…

July 14th, 2008 | Category: Special A


Or maybe not…!

Flavor: Mild

Wah… that was such a short date, wasn’t it? How come Tadashi’s date with Hikari lasted a whole episode, while Kei’s gets interrupted halfway? Meh. Well… at least there was still some Kei x Hikari goodness and it also looks like Hikari is finally starting to realize how much of an idiot she’s been all this time.

The new character they introduced this week is called Sakura, who’s supposed to be Kei’s fiancee via an arranged marriage. She affirms that she doesn’t really like Kei, though… and she’s just planning on marrying him since doing so would be of great help for her family’s business.  Anyways, both Hikari and her start to get along pretty well, so Sakura goes and asks her as a favor to find out which kind of woman is Kei’s type.

Special A 14 - I love you AND your money!

July 07th, 2008 | Category: Special A


*shrugs* Another Akira episode.

Flavor: Mild

Well, after being forced to attend a commoners’ school for several days, looks like the SA members are back to their normal lives again… except for the fact that Akira has now been keeping in contact with Yui ever since then. One day, though, Yui decides to go and steal some expensive jewelry that she found on Akira’s room during one of her visits to the Toudou mansion. Then, in order to avoid Akira, she suddenly tells her that it’s troublesome for her when she does stuff like sending one of her luxurious cars to pick her up at her house and stuff, so from now on she isn’t coming to visit her anymore.

Special A 13 comes with a new OP sequence.

June 30th, 2008 | Category: Special A



The new song is called “Gorgeous 4U” and it’s preformed by Jun Fukuyama, Tsubasa Yonaga, Hiro Shimono and Kazuma Horie… the voice actors for Kei, Jun, Tadashi and Ryuu respectively. The fact that this one doesn’t make my ears bleed already makes it infinitely better than the first one.

Special A 12 - Lovesick?

June 24th, 2008 | Category: Special A

Flavor: Sweet

If more Special A episodes were as funny and entertaining as this one and the one from last week, I think I’d be blogging about this show more frequently ( …or maybe much less since I actually have more to say when I really hate a series). So, Kei gets sick and Hikari decides to take care of him… I guess the most important thing out of all of this is that we finally got a real kiss:

Special A 09 - When there’s no love, there’s hate!

June 03rd, 2008 | Category: Special A

Flavor: Sour

In this episode, Yahiro brings Hikari to his beach mansion and then he decides to use her as a “bait” to make Akira come over to his place, but in the end Kei is again the one who goes there to rescue her. But, really… who cares! The only thing that matters is that this hasn’t really been a good show and that even though I haven’t read the manga, I’ve found myself feeling pretty annoyed at how they’ve handled this series so far.

Sure, these past few episodes didn’t seem to follow that tedious “Hikari tries to defeat Kei in some random challenge” format (which was my main complaint with the first ones), but it doesn’t really matter since what I disliked the most about these kind of episodes (that being Hikari’s unawareness of Kei’s true feelings) is still there. Seriously, I hate Hikari so much that I don’t think I’ve even enjoyed all these pseudo-romantic scenes (such as the ‘kiss’ from this week) they’ve shown so far. Also, the fact that 95% of the jokes don’t make me laugh doesn’t really help either.
