I'm glad to see that Azaka can stand with the big punchers, and while Satsuki was a bit of a disappointment, the implication that he's related to Shiki's alter disappearance is nicely chilling.

Azaka doesn't look it, but she's rather strong...enough so to push down Mikiya even...I don't know if that is saying much looking at Mikiya though.

Oh, and for your fapping pleasure, loli Shiki announced for Kara no Kyoukai movie 7. Official stuff from www.karanokyoukai.com



Azaka wasn't as tsundere as I expected her to be, but I'm actually a little glad.  Over the top tsundere feels kind of played out to me.  Azaka was really adorable in some scenes though.  "Ah?  Eh?  Eto...panchi! (whiff~)"  lol.

They didn't really do as much with Satsuki as I remember in the light novels, but that's alright I guess.  His ability is pretty neat though.  It's a shame they dumb it down (or at least dumb down the explanation of it) in the movie.  I was impressed at how much they buffed up Azaka's fight scene with the fairy bitch though.  Oh ufotable~  You really know how to make anything exhilarating.

Anyway, pretty good chapter all in all.  Not the best, but surprisingly not the worst either.  The final chapter's just around the corner though!  

So am i the only one that was disappointed with KnK6? I love Azaka as much as anyone, but the plot seemed kind of.... Out of place compared to the last 5 movies.
Yeah, this chapter in the light novels is the weakest by far, and adds very little into the grand plot.  But you know, it wouldn't be Type-Moon without a healthy dose of flat chested and/or incestuous tsundere, so whatever.  Chalk it up to a necessary evil, I guess?  To be honest though, I think this chapter needed to get a little of that ufotable spice to make it a bit more interesting to sit through.

Agreed with stuff here. Of them all, I would say that my least favorable story in KnK is this one. It doesn't do much at all in the light novel except add the side thing with Satsuki. The whole reason the story existed was simply to add him in without being like "lol, here's some random guy that knows what happened, lol." His purpose in the light novels as well is rather dull, he doesn't do much at all.

Despite this being my least preferred chapter in the light novels, I do have to give mad props to UFOTable for making this still very enjoyable to watch. And also shout out to Kalafina for making my second favorite KnK theme song, although it did get tiring hearing it in the background every 5 minutes. UFOtable needs to learn how to animate dogs a little better, imho.

spoiler alert
So why did Shiki need to be there? Because of her eyes, yes...but she saw one (1) fairy with her eyes...it didn't even do anything. At the end, fairies are everywhere and like 'lol, you can see me because i fail at being a stealthy fairy, lol'. mystic eye necessity for the fail.

also the preview to the next movie with XXXX eating the dead body is wow. 1 hour to eat a whole body? grats, i think i just lost at all eating contests for the rest of my life.

end spoiler alert

"Ah?  Eh?  Eto...panchi! (whiff~)"  lol.
They seriously need to put Azaka in Melty now.

I'll be honest, you guys are torturing me. I still haven't downloaded/watched any of the movies, waiting for the last one to come out, and then I come here and here you are coming over the movies. Gee, thanks.

As for more KnK people in MB, I think Shiki's already enough. If they have time to put in another KnK character, they should employ it putting someone else from Tsukihime, say, Shiki, Arihiko... Honestly, wouldn't Kiri be a good TATARI for Kouma?
(I'd hate to mention this, but frankly, I'd rather have another Neco instead of another KnK character)

Lol Shin.  The next movie's gonna be ridiculous.  Just wait.  Lio's a failure, but the ending is great!  Also there's a little twist nestled in there for everyone to enjoy.  And I don't think I even need to say how I feel towards loli shiki...

As for adding Azaka in, my preferences would be:
1. Tsuki characters
2. Tsuki 2 chars
3. Knk chars
.
.
10. Necos
.
.
.
75. F/SN chars

Honestly though, Azaka would be kind of pointless it'd be like another Akiha (and there's already 3 Akihas going on).  Also it's not like KnK people have any relation to the story.  Ryougi's obviously just there for fanwankery and promotional reasons.

I have the books, I've read through them several times. So yeah, I know how Lio stands among things. I kinda like the ending, but I raged for Shiki after the BS that happens. Rakkyo 7 is my fourth favorite of the Rakkyo stories. The ending was good, but I rather like the ending to some of the other stories in Rakkyo. The epilogue doesn't do too much either. All of the stories are good, that's for sure, it's hard to decide the middle stories in position.

On second thought, I wasn't too sure how much I would like 忘却録音 (besides the fact it's Azaka's story and there are lots of moe moments, it's still a 'filler' story in KnK), but UFOtable did a damn good job with it, so hell, I might actually like 殺人考察(後) more than I am figuring.

1 矛盾螺旋 (of course...this is like everyone else's too)
2 痛覚残留
3 伽藍の洞
4 殺人考察(後)
5 俯瞰風景
6 殺人考察(前)
7 忘却録音

If we compare serial killers, Tsukihime's > Rakkyo's. Nanaya would pwn him.

I'll be honest, you guys are torturing me. I still haven't downloaded/watched any of the movies, waiting for the last one to come out, and then I come here and here you are coming over the movies. Gee, thanks.

Well, the movies are easily available online. I couldn't wait for my copy to arrive, so I just watched 忘却録音 online. Had a friend order the special edition and he's supposed to be picking it up when he's out in Japan, so when he gets back (2 weeks) I should have it with the OST.  :fap: :fap:

Kiri would be awesome of a character with how over the top badass he's supposed to be. But I was just joking about adding Azaka, it's just because of one of the scenes in 忘却録音 where she whiffs a 2A, I had to say it.

(I'd hate to mention this, but frankly, I'd rather have another Neco instead of another KnK character)

A cat is fine too.

I know that, but I'm waiting until all of them are released, so I don't watch what's available and start drooling until the rest comes out.

I also absolutely LOVED how Azaka finished the flower thingy with V.Akiha's jC at the very end. xD

I'd say it is more like Ciel's charged 4B, than V.Akiha's jC. It doesn't have the little mid-air flip. If we are being specific about it.  :P :P :P

Yeah, it was definitely an axe kick, similar to ciel 4b or aoko 4c.  I thought the random ass axe kick was kind of...well...random?  *shrugs*  I liked the Burning Hearts Explosive Right Cross Buster Deluxe Edition Now With 200% More Incest punch more.

I think my favorite of them all so far was chapter 5, purely for the ridiculous hoard of zombies battle.  That was just...unbelievably sexy animation and choreography.

Not being specific, no. Plus the end look was the same: getting the shit kicked out of you with the back of her feet. XD

KnK6 makes up for its lack of plot importance with actually having a logical understanding of the progression of time.

Call me crazy but I like it when they don't cut the show into 10-20 minute segments then hit randomize.

I don't like how they messed up Word of God. It felt way more elegant in the novels. And Satsuki was cool back then. Now, not. Hum.
