seriously.










I don't think this blog would be complete if I don't blog about the last episode of this show.
So I will.



Read the rest!



First of all, let me say zOMG! I found the budget!!1!
Now, let me add that this episode was great, especially when compared to the utter insanity and "YOU THINK WE WERE CRAZY BEFORE?! LOLOL"-ness that was episode 25. I believe that's the sort of thing that happens when an anime spends too much time with filler episodes. Let it be a lesson to the rest of you anime makers out there.

Secondly, I still don't understand Pucchan. I just don't get it. Maybe I missed something, but I still have no idea why he's a puppet. Oh well, maybe that's for the best.

As for the rest of the episode, it was basically tying up other loose ends such as Kanade's ties to her superiors, and Seina's connection to the Jinguuji conglomerate. And of course, showing even more of Rino's ESP powers (that has to get annoying eventually..).

In the end, there was a throw back to the last half of the second episode (one of the best), only with all of the animators working on it ths time. Very sentimental. Very Cute. Very Gokujou.

(and that was very lame. I know.)



minty introspection:
And so it's over. But of course it isn't really, seeing as Kanade is now the school director, with Seina as an assistant...oh, and Cyndi's there too, for..some reason.

Additionally, Nanaho's the new Gokujou Seitokai pres (no surprises there), Kuon's remains the vice pres, and taking over Nanaho's old spot is Kaori...though I kinda thought it would be nice if Sayuri was there, with Kaori taking over the spot when Rino became president...
yeah..

Speaking of which, I was hoping there would be more development between those two. From episodes 1, 4, and 8, it really seemed like they were actually trying to set something up between Kaori and Rino.. but then it all sort of fizzled with the wave of filer episodes and eps focusing on more minor characters. Which of course wasn't necesarilly a bad thing, however it did mean characters like Sayuri, Kaori and sometimes even Rino got little more than 1 line an epsiode.

Which reminds me! What about that gunshot in episode 16? Kaori had an odd cameo right after it occurred, that seemed to foreshadow to something. Something they never got to. That being said, we still don't know wht happened to her parents. Unless we were given that scene and left to put the pieces together.
Or maybe they just died because it was convenient. Whatever.

Either way, I still think I enjoyed Gokujou Seitokai overall. The characters were lovable, and they will indeed be missed. So you better come up with a OVA, Konami. Or else. I ain't playing no dating sim.
