Kissdum #26: FINAL

Rin whined in pain as her mother began her task. In the illusion world, the inner battle went on. Same time, in real world, everyone was working together to fight the final battle at the sea. Missiles were fired into the sea. Within the sea, Rin had evolved into a monster. Throughout the city, people were fighting the evolved creatures. In the inner world, the Neodiver was struggling in his battle. Rin demanded to know the reason for being born and he told her that the joy to know the smile of the woman he loved. With that, he sent an attack using the mirror in his hand at her. In the real world, monsterous Rin was in pain while the people began their attack at her. The Neodriver- Aiba continued his fight.

In the real world, waves of attack occurred within the sea as the battle between monstrous Rin and the people went on. Aiba dived a missile at Rin. In the illusion world, Rin slipped into sub unconsciousness. In the real world, the monstrous Rin held Yuna, as she faced Aiba. She stated she would not die. She wanted to live on in return to get his Yuna back. In the illusion world and real world, Aiba heard Yuna’s voice. She told him that nothing could take away pain of humanity and that pain and happiness come hand in hand. Spirits of his dead companions called Aiba to awaken his power. Yuna asked Aiba to set her free for love. Aiba lifted his sword as Yuna confessed her love for Aiba Shu. Aiba slashed Rin who screamed in shock and disbelief. In real world, Nana Shu also stabbed Rin. Both Shu shouted for Yuna. Rin and her aura shattered. Yuna faded. Rin yelled to her mother that she did not want to die as she came for her. Nana Shu began to vanish with the loss of Yuna. Meanwhile, the remaining human survivors gathered as sunlight shone back on Earth.

Time passed. Reconstruction work was carried out. Noah and her friend saw a girl who resembled one of the elves – Bara. Noah ran off to play with her. Other place, researchers worked hard to improve human life. Yuna’s younger sister inherited her post as a researcher and she still thought of Shu who had been missing since and was probably grieving for loss of Yuna still.

THE END

COMMENT: So glad to find its final episode at last. I thought I’d never have the chance to watch it. A little bitter-sweet ending I must say.

Phantom – Requiem for the Phantom #20: Hometown

Two years later..

In a school, a girl confronted Reiji in their classroom. Reiji was a student there. She pulled him to the rooftop where a girl was waiting for him with a blush. The earlier girl ran off. The other girl was Fujireda Mio – Elen’s friend in the freshman year. She wanted to ask him whether he liked anyone at this time. Elen appeared and was surprised to see Mio talking to Reiji. She was looking for Mio so that they could go for snacks together. Reiji told Elen later that Mio was trying to confess her feeling to him and he did not tell her his feeling. Elen nagged him to tell Mio. Later, Reiji overheard the earlier girl ranting Mio for failing in her confession. Reiji turned up to talk to Mio alone. The other girl ran off eagerly. Later, Reiji told Elen that he had told Mio to start off as friend. Elen nagged and supported Reiji to go with Mio. Later, in other place, Mio and her friends were talking about the confession. Other place, Elen prepared Reiji for his first date.

Later, Reiji and Mio went several places visiting and having fun. Mio asked Reiji of his family. He told her that he and his younger sister- Elen lived alone for their parents died of accident long time ago. Sanae - the earlier girl had planned Reiji and Mio’s to-visit places for their dates before hand. Back to present, Mio told Reiji that she lived with her mother alone. Just then, a masked motorbike female driver paused and shot Mio’s bracelet off her bag before driving away. Reiji was waked from his dream after his time of being assassin at that moment. In the church. Elen was praying. Reiji went to her, thinking back of his and Elen time travelling for half a year back to Japan. Since then, Reiji had changed a lot, opening his heart more. Reiji told her that he received a silent warning. Elen knew and stated she needed a confession of her sins and that Inferno was here. She stated that she needed Mio’s feeling. She told him about Mio’s knowing of her father who was an important person and he was a leader from Godoh Group. His disappearance was to protect Mio and her mother. Mio was Godoh’s greatest weakness. Elen knew Scythe was in Japan, planning to use Mio to threaten Godoh if need be. Reiji was shocked. Later in their home, Reiji was looking at something while Elen watched him. He commented that their life was short. Elen stated they needed a plan for quick escape. She told him to cry if he wanted to. She commented that Reiji’s smile over the past 6 months were true and peaceful. She had wanted a dream like that. With that, she hugged Reiji as she did not want Reiji’s happiness to be a lie.

Next day, Sanae and her friend were not amused to learn that Reiji had left off the date suddenly when they walked with Mio. They saw Reiji and Sanae tried to hit him with her bag but he caught her wrist before it did. Reiji apologised and Mio thanked Reiji for the date. Reiji ran off in a hurry. Mio felt something different about Reiji. On the road, Reiji ran into the earlier motorist who showed him the hand watch he had given Cal months ago. In the church, Elen was praying. On the road, Reiji watched her in surprise as she removed her helmet. He wondered if the woman was Cal.

COMMENT: New OP and ED. I prefer the new ED and the previous OP. The new ED is pretty sad. Cal had changed her image apparently. It looks like a reverse of roles between Elen, Cal and Reiji. Cal became the assassin while Reiji and Elen led normal student life. Instead of the earlier intention of Reiji to sway Cal away from the assassin world, she went deeper into the bloody world and Elen had a taste of normal and peaceful world. As a result, the new Cal was filled with rage when she reappeared before Reiji.

Bleach Issue #370: Debating life from God’s Viewpoint

Sai Fon was panting and she fell after activating her bankai. Omeagi launched to catch her as she fell towards the ground. The Vizard – Hachigen was impressed with her power that actually cracked the gates of the four beasts. Omeagi managed to grab Sai Fon and told him off for putting her into danger. She had never done Jakuho Raikoben twice in one day. Sai Fon and others were surprised that the Arrancar was still alive although badly injured. The Arrancar – Barragan was angry as he sent waves of dying breath at them. The three of them dodged the attacks. Sai Fon was still shocked of his condition after she had hit him with her bankai. Barragan claimed himself the God of Hueco Mundo. Hachigen was hit and his arm rotted. Barragan commented that all of them were not different from insects. Barragan sensed something wrong with the arm of Hachigen. The lost arm of Hachigen glowed within Barragan’s body. Hachigen had cut off his arm purposely inside a barrier and transferred to Barragan’s stomach to create a void within it. Barragan yelled that he would not forgive Hachigen as he disintegrated and shattered away.

Naruto Issue #460: Sasuke under Siege

White Zetsu urged all at the Kage meeting to find Sasuke together. Raikage grabbed White Zetsu’s head in a flash, demanding Uchiha Sasuke’s whereout. Gaara, Temari, Kankuro and ninjas from Mist Villages were surprised of mention of Sasuke’s name. Danzou could not believe that Sasuke was there. Before White Zetsu could give him a hint, Raikage crushed Zetsu under his fist. Raikage ordered the starting of finding Sasuke while Mizukage stated they should not have kill anyone for they could have interrogate information of Akatsuki. Mifune also ordered his men to carry out the battles against Sasuke. Raikage told Ao to keep an eye on Danzou before he left, crushing through the wall. Outside, Karin sensed that samurais were on their move, likely to find them. Juugo knew White Zetsu must have betrayed them.

In a wooden house, Naruto was lying on the ground when Madara sat by the window, seeking for a talk with him. Shocked and angry, Naruto attacked him with rasengan. Madara dodged and commented that Naruto should know that a sudden rasengan would not work on him. Wood swirled around Madara and bound him, followed by more wood to imprison him. Kakashi appeared and threatened him with raiki. Yamato who was nearby to control the wood, told Naruto to stay still. Kakashi told Madara that he would not lay his hand on Naruto that easily now. Madara confessed his identity as Uchiha Madara. Yamato stated that while Madara’s body was not in ghost form in order to take Naruto, Yamato would still be able trap him. Madara was more concerned in asking Naruto how he had managed to convince Nagato to betray him. Madara added that he had taken an interest in Naruto now. Naruto did not care and demanded to know what he was planning to do with Sasuke. Madara chuckled and decided to tell Naruto of Sasuke – the man who violated to the core by the shinobi world’s hatred and betrayal. Naruto’s expression changed into shock.

Other place, Sasuke was killing samurais aimlessly and easily with his sword. Juugo told Karin to find Danzou via his Chakra and she saw the dark chakra within Sasuke that was even colder and darker than his level two cursed seal transformation. Meanwhile, the samurai who could control their own chakra were shocked to see Sasuke able to repel their sword techniques. Meanwhile, Raikage and his men were moving and detected Sasuke with his companions below them. Karin sensed their arrivals. Suigetsu was disbelief to see Sasuke killing when he told him earlier not to go killing people aimlessly. Just then, the wall broke and Raikage faced off Uchiha Sasuke.
