Nothing says “Be my slave” like your very own Rosa Mystica. Too bad it looks like Suigin Tou bought all of them!
In the wake of Suigin Tou’s assault, Jun’s ring miraculously shields Shinku from the blast. While Suigin Tou is distracted, Suisei Seki and Sousei Seki steal back their glowy things and with Hina Ichigo’s help, they cover Jun’s retreat. Jun takes Shinku to this impressive cloth house he built in elementary school, but [...]
Thanks Matthew for pointing out that a second season of Rozen Maiden has been officially announced! I can’t wait to hear and see more of this “Rozen Maiden ~träumend~” because I need more Suisei Seki! More Shinku is good as well ^^d.
Shinku’s battle royale with Suigin Tou begins, but Suigin Tou never plays fair. To ensure that the match is truly one-on-one, Suigin Tou attacks Jun and traps him in an even more depressing version of his dream world. While Shinku attempts to dodge Suigin Tou’s vicious attacks, Jun slowly succumbs to the power [...]
Shinku is resting in her world trying to enjoy a cup of tea, when Suigin Tou drops by to challenge her to an Alice game match at midnight. Shinku has no choice but to accept, and so spends the rest of the day being rather quiet and passive. Suisei Seki and Sousei Seki [...]
I was checking out the Rozen Maiden manga, and I noticed that they really did a lot of rearranging and tweaking of the story in the anime. I’m not saying this is a bad thing since I like anime and manga to be different, and I think the director did a great job. [...]
The last Rozen Maiden (at least in the anime) doll is introduced, as we finally meet Sousei Seki. Sousei Seki is Suisei Seki’s twin sister, and fellow dream-gardener, or whatever. Unfortunately, they are estranged because of a disagreement over their master, an old watchmaker. Ever since the watchmaker’s son Kazuki died in [...]
Last we saw, Shinku had stopped moving and now no one can get her to wake up. Everyone realizes things are serious when even Kun-kun’s sweet talking can’t get a reaction out of Shinku. Suisei Seki graciously offers to take Jun and Hina Ichigo as her servants, but when her offer is refused, [...]
The subs of the rest of Rozen Maiden finally came out, and I gobbled them up as expected. I would never have imagined enjoying this series so much; Bee Train doesn’t exactly have the best track record in my book, but luckily this series proved to be the exception rather than the rule. [...]
With much shame, I admit I watched the first episode of Ultimate Girls. However, near the beginning I came across this split second shot of a strangely familiar face. Rozen Maiden fans will know what I’m talkin’ about.
Shinku and Jun have another deep talk about how he sucks so much, but could be way cooler. Shinku uses her fist to really hammer the point home. Later, Hina Ichigo and Suisei Seki hear a noise and investigate the room with the mirror. Just when it seems safe to abuse the [...]
A peaceful day of watching Detective Kun-kun is ruined when Nori makes some strawberry cake and Suisei Seki steals Hina Ichigo’s strawberry (and then blames Hina, woot). Everyone seems content to let Hina pout up in Jun’s room, but Nori threatens a dinner without flower hamburgers if they aren’t all getting along by the [...]
Jun’s window strives to be like the rice paper door in Fruits Basket, as yet another suitcase is delivered to the Sakurada residence (via air mail). Inside is a very shy doll by the name of Suisei Seki; moreover, she seems to hate humans, and so refuses to enter into a contract with Jun. [...]
