Girls Dead Monster – Day Game PV (Angel Beats!)

[flv:Girls_Dead_Monster_Day_Game_PV.mp4 550 310]

It's been well over three weeks since the end of Angel Beats, but Key and Maeda Jun don't seem to want to let us forget that easily. They've recently released another Girls Dead Monster song and a PV to go along with it. With a male band this time around, it's less so Gldemo and more just LiSA with this "Day Game" song though. I'm a bit indifferent about the song after listening to it for the past while and still prefer Little Braver if I had to choose between the two, but it's always nice to see more Angel Beats related stuff. The baseball bat scene at the end is undoubtedly a reference to Yui's one in episode ten, whereas the gymnasium is reminiscent of the one in the series as well. LiSA's school uniform gets my vote of approval, but the circular track that's used for the camera in the gymnasium portions of the PV just makes me dizzy. In any case, the bonus fourteenth episode on the last DVD/BD volume won't be coming out until December 22nd of this year, so we'll just have to take whatever we can get for now.

(Senpai!)
"Senior!"

Yui's whipping out stickers and plastering them all over the place, making her primed for a future career as an elementary school teacher. Musician? Pssh... If this episode hinted at anything, it's what each of Houkago Tea Time's band members will likely wind up as.

"The Wind's Response"

After the "Kazehana GET!" from Minato in the preview last time, it's no surprise that he adds the Wind Sekirei to his collection this episode. What was a bit of surprise was how he won her over, by doing whatever he could to try and protect her.

"A Splendid Package If I Do Say So Myself / President! Please Spread the Hem More! / Are You Satisfied Already?!"

On a school trip to Kyoto, school newspaper club president Hata Ranko (Arai Satomi) reveals how Shino and Aria's jokes don't seem to have as much punch without Takatoshi around to insert his comedic jab at the end. Surprisingly, the two of them still know when to stop on their own though.

"Lots of Suspicious People"

The only really suspicious person was the Marui triplets' father Soujirou (Amada Masuo) -- being a big overweight guy running across town with his girls' underwear in hand -- but all the misunderstandings this episode made for some pretty hilarious times again.
