Medaka Box Abnormal 1
This is most definitely off to a far better start than the first series thanks to the really good Flask Plan Arc and that trolltastic OP. Myouga's number speach was handled perfectly, especially when
The animation of Myouga going to town on Medaka and the fight with Nabeshima was far better animated than pretty much anything in the first series. Clearly they've been saving their budget for this arc and I can't think of a better way of spending that money on a 2 cour adaptation (other than making a third season ;_
.
I'm diggin Oudo's voice, I think it's a perfect fit for how much of a dominating areshole he comes across as. I'm also pretty glad that they seem to be going through this at a far faster pace as the Flask Plan Arc started to drag on towards the end and this will most certainly help make it a far more pleasurable experience.
For some reason, Crunchyroll's video was choppy as hell and quick comparison to the broadcast shows that it's actually missing some keyframes
in the action scenes before the eyecatch throughout the entire episode and I'm not just talking about the camera pans. The delaycast is one thing but this is just awful. Can't say I'm happy as a subscriber. :/
EDIT: Seems that the video may have been fixed on crunchyrolls site but i cant tell as their streaming is just as big a piece of useless shit as it was the last i tried to watch anything off there.
Medaka Box Abnormal - Episode 1
"Give the audience what they want" - This seems like the main reason this season even exists. The OP seemed quite interesting with all the random crazy villains showing up, and then you have random action out of nowhere in the first episode. Hopefully cosmicblizzard is right, and this entire Flask Plan thing is just a battle shounen excuse for cool fights. That's the only reason I'm watching after all. Lol.
One thing I don't get though. The Thirteen Party has 13 members, but Unzen is out of the action so they need a replacement. Yet they only showed 6 of those members. Where are the other 6? Everyone else so far seems to be people who want to contend for the 13th spot. Am I missing something?
The other
will make an appearance later on, they're even in the OP!
