Uchuu no Stellvia 18

Kabitzin on June 13, 2004 · in Uchuu no Stellvia

After the bittersweet victory last time, I figured there’d be some fluffy downtime this episode, but I was wrong. Although everything seems fine and happy (there’s even some cheesy play that Shiponsengumi puts on), a lot has changed in the 80 days that Shima and Kouta spent rescuing Ultima. Shima is plunged into depression again as she finds that Arisa has decided to take mechanic classes, and Akira is jealous of her. Worst of all, she’s frustrated that she just isn’t as good as Kouta. What’s a whiny Sailormoon brat in a EVA plugsuit to do?

If there is any justice in the Stellvia world, Yayoi will resist Pierre’s nanpa attempts. He’s such a total loser, but he thinks that his ogling ways will land him a chick. This isn’t Friends you know! Oh yeah, I really enjoyed this episode. As annoying as Shima is, she’s interesting in how she can be so unhappy when she has saved the world, woo’ed the stud, and distinguished herself as a super talent. Good stuff.

Talent doesn’t count — just the pathos! I didn’t like these last episodes as much as the intro episodes [1-8], but maybe that’s just me :)

When becomes of Yayoi’s love life is… interesting to say the least. I saw it coming, though.
