Death Note

I just started watching Death Note! Finally, right? It's really, really cool, and it started off really nice as well. I was expecting something classic and old, maybe somewhat uninteresting, but oh my, it kicked off really, really well. The first scene is the exposure of the realm of Death Gods, which is seriously, interesting enough, and oh my, the appearance of Ryuk managed to reel me in as well.

Sword Art Online II Episode 3

We're introduced a new character, Asada, who has a fear of pistols.

As a young child, she had shot a robber and caused him to die. Therefore, where her fear began.

Asada is a victim of bullying, and when it happens in this episode, a friend rescues her.

Shinkawa seems to be her friend who recommended GGO. He had suggested it in hopes that it would help with her fear of guns.

"Next time, I'll kill them all- I'll try for a high rank..."

Next, Kirito tells Asuna that he would be converting to another game for a few days.

He doesn't reveal much detail, and they both reveal that they don't believe that they should trust Kikuoka 100%.

At the hospital, his rehab nurse, Aki, is tasked to monitor him as he enters the game.

Asada then explains then as Asada, she fears pistols. However, as Sinon, holding a gun or having one pointed at her doesn't scare her at all.

She believes that as Sinon is her other self, the stronger she is, the stronger her real self will get. Therefore, she is determined to be the strongest.

Finally, we are brought to a new scene where three people are discussing of Death Gun and the incidents related. One player provokes Death Gun by stating his appearance and time of appearance. However, the player on the other side of the screen, ignores him.

He opens a file, and two out of three pictures are crossed out.

It shows that he's got one target left: Sinon.

Sword Art Online II Episode 2

This episode starts from within episode 1.

The best sniper in GGO, Sinon.

Not much to say about this episode, I'd say it's still introducing this new sniper. We've been introduced to her character though. She has a sharp sense, sensing the uneasiness when she saw the cloaked man (Behemoth, a hired bodyguard). Also, she doesn't give up when faced with obstacles. 

"In the game, at least be brave enough to run toward the guns and die!"

Then she runs. She runs to a rundown building and aims to snipe him. But he notices. And he fires. Her leg gets shot. But does she stop? No.

"He's strong enough to smile on the battlefield."

She goes downwards fast and aims her sniper right at his head.

"I'll kill him!"

And he goes down with a single shot.

Then, we're back to ALO, with our familiar characters from Season 1.

Sword Art Online II Episode 1

Here we were presented with the introduction of second season, and dear me, I say, it is very interesting.

Can you die from being shot from within a virtual game?

Kirito was presented by Kikuoka, two deaths which has happened due to acute heart failure. Both had died when shot by another player, Death Gun. After much discussion and desserts, Kikuoka had requested of Kirito to log in to Gun Gale Online (GGO) to contact Death Gun.





"Stopping a player's heart from within a game is impossible!" 


With another slice of cake, they resume the discussion. Kirito explains to us about GGO. About how GGO allows players to earn money from within the game. How?  Game coins earned in the game can be exchanged for real cash. As Kirito explained, he had said that high-level players are those who can earn money from the game very month.




"Why is this such a big deal to you? It's just another Internet horror story."


After Kikuoka explained his purpose, we are next introduced to the scene where the female sniper (Ice Sniper?) aims and shoots at her enemy.


"That's like tossing a wad of paper in a wastebasket."

"Next."

And that concludes the first episode. My dear friends, I apologize if you blame me for not mentioning of the couple's interaction. I didn't see it necessary and therefore, didn't make any means to mention it.

Looking forward to the next episode.

SWORD ART ONLINE II

SAO 2's coming in just a few days, everybody!

Airing on July 5th, 2014!

Are you ready for it?

Ready to see Kirito as a girl? The mysterious blue-haired girl? The two twins?

My, oh my, I'm sure we'll all looking forward to it. I find myself looking forward to it as well, even though there were so much elements I dislike in the first season. One day, I shall tell you all about all the elements I dislike, although, I'm sure you've all heard it before. It should be the same old usual.

Kuroko no Basuke - The Basketball which Kuroko Plays.

I watched Kuroko no Basuke in 2012. 

And I have been playing it since 2010. My friend, my friend who's active in sports, prefers badminton over basketball. In 2012, I managed to influence her to play basketball more, and in 2014, she watched this anime, Kuroko no Basuke.

It inspired her to play basketball.

And even though I played for years, all I've been doing was shooting. Just shooting and shooting all over again. 

I never joined the basketball club in my school because the fees were expensive and really - I knew that I only played because I enjoyed it. 

But now, that friend of mine dragged me to the basketball club with her, and now I'm going to the U15 competition this year, as this year will be my last U15.

"It's like fate. As if this competition is for us, you know?"

That was what she said.

I... I'm forever grateful that she feels more motivated to play basketball now. 

Unfortunately, it's not because of me. But...it's because of this anime. So, thank you.

Thank you.

Now, she, another friend and I have chose to commit ourselves to basketball.

Let us be successful and not suffer many injuries.

I have come back from the dead.

Hello, land of the living.

It's Bridget here.

I haven't been active for a long time now, so I guess it's kind of obvious that I've dropped this blog.
I have found an interest in a new hobby, however, and made another blog to share my work.

http://worksbybridget.blogspot.com/

Check it out if you want, there's not much to see though, since it's fairly new.

I might come back here to post some stuff occasionally.

Thank you for your time.
