BLOOD-C – 06

「かぜをいたみ」 (Kaze wo Itami)
"Dashed by Fierce Winds"

Plot development has suddenly arrived in full force; things are becoming very gloomy and the sudden turn of events has left me in shock.

「僕にできるすべて」 (Boku ni Dekiru Subete)
"Everything I Can Do"

While this episode started out a little anti-climatic, with nothing really occurring to push the plot along, it really did well in illustrating what Narumi means to everyone. As the newest member of this group of NEETs and Thugs, color me surprised that he holds such strong emotions for a group of people he barely even knows.

「焚書官」 (Funsho-kan)
"The Book Burner"

I guess in judging this episode, one has to look at it both in context and in terms of pure stand-along entertainment value. To tackle the latter first, I guess I’d say it was pretty good. But to finally judge this ep in the context of the series as presented, I’m not overly pleased.
