Just as it looked as though Shu had completed his latest mission for Gai flawlessly and without bloodshed, he suddenly finds himself very much thrown to the wolves by the friend he thought he'd saved thanks to his actions, as Yahiro Samukawa casually pushes him straight into the hands of the waiting GHQ forces on the way to school the next day. Needless to say, GHQ have a lot that they wish to

Why won’t they just make Gai the main character already?! Ok, Guilty Crown, while entertaining, was definitely not known for good, consistent writing and this week’s episode just painfully makes it so obvious. I’d say pretty much the entire first half of the episode was horrible. First with the Hisoka-wannabe guy trying too hard to [...]

So, Episode 4 continues off from last week’s cliffhanger with Shu getting arrested by the GHQ.  The Funeral Parlor takes and publicly announces their intent to forcibly access the GHQ’s Isolation Facility Four.  Major Segai then shows Shu why Yahiro sold him out: to make money for his younger brother Jun, who suffering through a [...]

Tsk tsk, profounding sounding questions with simple answers I just couldn't get over the epic laws of gravity within this anime. I guess this is to be expected with people leaping tall mechs in a single bound. The episode did end on a strong note with the main character showing he isn't completely brain dead. Also pretty shitty screen caps this post since it is web rip that was upscaled D:

Hopefully her ‘dramatic’ reaction doesn’t indicate that she’s the kind of characters who has a ‘sectret’ crush on the main-character. Besides, why the hell should she get such an important role in the first place…? Come on, soapy school-life-drama is something this show absolutely does not need. Guilty Crown 04: Betrayal Is Appropriate Now After [...]

And my reaction: …the hell am I watching?  Sometimes Guilty Crown is truly amazing, a visual masterpiece with exhilarating action sequences and intensified drama.  But other times it leaves you dumbfounded, confused, and needing to ask, “Really?  Is THAT really what I’m watching?” Too be honest, this was my favorite episode of Guilty Crown to [...]

Episode 04 - Now THIS is more like it. While there are still a few plot holes poking around, this week’s episode of Guilty Crown was a significant improvement. The most notable part was, obviously, the stellar production values and the great action scenes. But aside from that, there was actually a surprisingly good bit [...]
