Fall Anime V2.0: Kurozuka / Fate GET!

October 14th, 2008 hikky Leave a comment Go to comments

 

A new anime I haven’t heard about yet.. What would you expect to see?

The surprising thing is: After one episode I can say: I’m In!

 

I’ll give you a short summary of the first episode, but attention:

spoiler_ahead

 

This are just my impressions, if there is someone reading this who has read the manga, feel free to correct me, but please without spoilers ;) .

The story starts with some monks(?) babbling some chants(?).

 

snapshot20081013213954

After that the scenery changes to impressions of a destroyed city (or world?).

 

snapshot20081013214103

A guy is jumping through the sky and as he lands on his feet the scenery has changed again und he is running  trough a forest  being chased by some guys how turn out to be…

 

snapshot20081013214209

…zombie-samurai…things^^

 

snapshot20081013214150

The guy (his name is Kuro) fights against them…

 

snapshot20081013214325

…but stops as he suddenly feels faint. Fortunately another guy intervenes and kills all those samurai-zombie-things.

His name is Benkei and he turns out to be a subordinate of Kuro. While those two talk for a little bit, you learn that Kuro’s brother wants to kill him and it seems like those two try to escape his brothers soldiers.

They find a house in the middle of the forest, which seems quiet deserted first…

snapshot20081013214423

They enter it and as the shout, a female voice answers…

OMG, black hair with such an cut is hawt! ( At such a point I wonder why Japanese girls dye their hair… To get a weird brown??.. ährm, ok lets continue…).

As you will see later, her name is quiet fitting in my opinion: Kuromitsu (literally "black honey”).

 

snapshot20081013214618

While Benkei talks to her about staying for a night at this place, Kuro feels unwell again (or is he just suffering from some *nosebleed*? ). Kuromitsu touches his forehead and finds out that he has a high fever. She allows them to stay under one condition: ”Not to peek in the room in the back of the house under any circumstances!”

 

snapshot20081013214659

Nice mysterious look, eh?

 

 

snapshot20081013214714 

O
n the next morning…

snapshot20081013214804

…while Benkei tries to find medicine for Kuro-sama…

snapshot20081013214934

…Kuromitsu verifies with a interesting method, that his fever is already gone.

 

snapshot20081014154813

After that those two go for a walk in the forest, one thing leads to another…

snapshot20081013215043

…but Kuromitsu isn’t a women who wants some fast outdoor-rape-action, and as Kuro realizes that he apologized for offending her… orz^^

 

snapshot20081013215153

Next scene: Kuro hears/feels that the enemy is near (???)…

snapshot20081013215253

Where do you think he goes now? Right, to the room in the back.

 

snapshot20081013215314

Where Kuromitsu enjoys some fresh blood xD

 

snapshot20081013215454

As she notices him, she tries to explain herself, but while he tries to tell her, that what he has seen before doesn’t matter for him, he notices  a guy standing behind her…

 

snapshot20081013215509

snapshot20081013215530

…who cuts off Kuromitsu’s  right arm! oO WTF?

 

snapshot20081013215543

Seconds later another guy attacks him from behind…

snapshot20081013215559

…while the roof is set on fire.

 

 

snapshot20081014155210

As Kuro lies on the ground he sees the attackers. One of them is going to stab Kuromitsu to death. Ohh noes!

 

snapshot20081013215644

But Kuro pulls himself together and cuts of the villains arms. SPLATTER! NICE JOB!

snapshot20081013215656

He kills one more of the guys, but the last one (the one how attacked Kuromitsu from behind) impales him on his sword.

snapshot20081013215723

While Kuro is lying in a pool of his own blood, he notices at something behind his enemy…

snapshot20081013215736

EPIC WIN!!!! Kuromitsu isn’t dead, she looks even better than before now xD

 

snapshot20081013215811

She isn’t very gentle now and kills the last attacker while licking of some blood from her arm. Delicious?

 

snapshot20081013215825

At that time Kuro realizes what two guys who watched the events from afar already know:

“Kuromitsu is immortal!”

 

snapshot20081013215845

Last scene: Kuro is nearly fading away and is telling her that he wanted to flee to somewhere else.

snapshot20081013215907

So Kuromitsu asks him if he would like to follow her…Where?… To eternity! (I would follow her without a second thought^^)

 

This first episode is a nice opportunity to proudly present my new ranking system (Noooo, I’m not copying somebody xD):

    Dango Ranking. Immer gut. Bisher konnte ich mich leider noch nicht dazu überwinden (zu Unrecht?) eine ganze Episode von und mit Kurozuka zu gucken. Ich mag keine Samurai san Serien, ausser sie sind vom Kaliber Samurai Champloo – dann ja. Irgendwie bevorzuge ich es nach wie vor, wenn Basebälle und keine Gliedmassen über den Bildschirm fliegen. Also nicht, das sie in Samurai Champloo Homing Mode Baseball gespielt hätten aber trotzdem.

    Ich bevorzuge ja auch durch die Gegend fliegende Sunoharas, aber so ne Splatter-Serie mit in Kimonos gehüllten Klassik-Haremetten ab und zu ist für mich auch nicht verkehrt.

    Jedenfalls nicht so verkehrt, wie sich über tödlich verletzte Kagamis lustig zu machen http://tinyurl.com/4zflrx oO

    BTW: Ist meidocafe down? Ich kann atm nicht darauf zugreifen… Sunrise your Server pls!

    Geniales Spoilerbild! XD
    Nagi gewinnt den Preis für die besten Gesichtsgrimassen.
    Kurozuka gefällt mir. Herrlich düster und brutal, ein guter Kontrast zum übrigen Anime Programm.
