So… that’s it? Apparently this season is only ten episodes.
The ending itself was weird, to say the least. But I guess that weirdness is the best part of this show.
It was all over the place. We start out with Haruna surfing on perverted slime that eats clothes. Continue reading Kore wa Zombie Desu Ka?!! Of the Dead 10 — It’s Over?
This week’s post is a collaboration with John Sato, Reiseng, redball, and Foshizzel (who provided pictures).
draggle: One of the major ways in which the world of Queen’s Blade differs from our own is that pants do not appear to have been invented yet.

So many death flags. The only question left, is will it be just Rider, or Waver and the grandfather as well? I’m guessing Waver will die, since otherwise this story would have a happy ending from my perspective.

I think it could have been more powerful if they’d made more than the most cursory nod to these two old people earlier though. Continue reading Fate / Zero 22 — Triggering Death Flags
