Comments on: Shion no Ou - 16 http://psgels.blogsome.com/2008/02/10/shion-no-ou-16/ An anime blog covering a large variety of series, both popular and underrated. Sun, 12 Feb 2012 08:04:05 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=1.5.1-alpha by: Moonhawk http://psgels.blogsome.com/2008/02/10/shion-no-ou-16/#comment-27553 Mon, 25 Oct 2010 16:52:33 +0100 http://psgels.blogsome.com/2008/02/10/shion-no-ou-16/#comment-27553 Noooo! Why did he have to cut Ayumi's hair THAT short?! It looks terrible! *cries* ... *cough* Eh... sorry for that outburst but really. This was just too much. They could have at least given him a nice new look and not something like a bad Hisatani clone... (I mean, for Hisatani that hairstyle is fitting and all but I had hoped for Ayumi to get more something along the looks of Hani-mejin himself or Satoru. This look is just too strict for someone of Ayumi's character. It doesn't suit him when you take into consideration what the different hairstyles say about characters in anime...) But enough of complaining, the rest of this episode really was pure awesomeness! I totally loved it! There were somany things that came together, some really heavy new revelations... and now I'm even more sure that Satoru isn't the badd guy. I suppose that the pendant Shion and Satoru have are some kind of good luck-charm Kazumi and Shion's mother shared. Shion inherited it from her mother after their murder and Satoru probably got his the same way as a memory of his beloved. All in all this series just keeps to blow me away and gets more and more awesome as it goes on! Noe I only hope that it will be able to keepit up till the end... Noooo! Why did he have to cut Ayumi’s hair THAT short?! It looks terrible! *cries*

I look at Rour RSS feeds and every time I see the latest episodes. While writing a quick review seems to be a lot easier than subbing, I have to wait a week until I read something :D Anyway, yes, this episode was very good. This proves that Shion no Ou is not only about duels, and that there is a world outside shougi. Which is hard to achieve in such series. I can't wait for the next episodes :D PSgels, the only irritating thing about Your blog is that speed of yours.

You know why. I had to resist the urge to read this blog entry until I watched the episode myself with subs. And you are 100% correct. Best episode yet, so many twists...and I'm glad that my resistance to believe that Satoru might not be the killer paid off. I'm down to 3 suspects now. None of them being Hani-Meijin by the way. IT WAS TORTURE.

The animation of this episode is quiet frightening but the plot makes up for it. You’re right. The animation of this episode is quiet frightening but the plot makes up for it.

Well I really don't mind spoilers^__^ re: Ayumi's mother we did get a hint though when he was talking to Saori on the rooftop remember. I don't have the eps with me now but essentially he did said his mother was going to be released to spend her last moments at home ... So I <i> was </i> kind of expecting that, although the When is not determined yet XD can't wait to see Ayumi's new look XD LOL Random search for animes summary led me here.

The downside of watching and rewatching this show so obsessively is that I feel pretty certain of who killed Shion's parents now. There are some very faint clues that require some additional logical speculation... And that's all I'll say. This story is a real gem.
