  Watch some yaoi ninja/loli mage. Impressions: Well, I have to admit that having Rie voice a demure boy ninja into other men back to back with a tsundere feisty mage isn’t as confusing as when Horie Yui was voice a trap and a tomboy at the same time, but it still feels weird. I’m not sure [...]

As stated above. It's a nice little window into the mind of the author of the wildly popular Zero no Tsukaima Novels, probably to mark the start of Season 3.I LIKE HOW HE THINKS.Apparently he draws some inspiration from the novels "The Three Musketeers" and other fantasy writings.Personally I loved "The Three Musketeers". I remember the days I used to read it and sound off "All for one, one for all!". A heartwarming tale of friendship and inseperable comrades.That was years ago though. Ah, good times.Still, The Three Musketeers had something a tad lacking that Zero no Tsukaima fills the void (no pun intended) in.Fanservice, Pantsu and delicious caek Flat Chest. ^_^;[[From 2NN]]

Alright, I have decided, and I'm quite firm about it, that I will be episodically blogging Zero no Tsukaima ~Princesses no Rondo~. However, I must be a realist. I do not have the time nor capability to tackle this series alone. Given my IRL commitments.So, therefore, I have enlisted two other of my team's bloggers, Hirito and Chong Mizunaga to help me do episodic reviews on Zero no Tsukaima 3. And they have so very kindly obliged me.[- My thanks to you guys ^^ Enjoy!-]So it will air come July 6th on Chiba TV! And the trailer's out! Set to ICHIKO's You're The One!<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/-KaA_VMwsBc&amp;hl=en"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/-KaA_VMwsBc&amp;hl=en" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>I'll tackle episode one, and the others will help me tackle the following two in this order: Chong then Hirito.And hopefully we can stick to that. This is by no means a MUST-FOLLOW! And is easily changeable.All I need is you guys and your thoughts and some witty screencaps. Skill in reviewing is not needed. Just say it as you like it. Also: IN UNRELATED NEWS I HAVE FOUND A RAHXEPHON TRANCE REMIX (No. 2 on the play order):<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/hQM0n_wqBao&amp;hl=en"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/hQM0n_wqBao&amp;hl=en" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>Cowboy Bebop and Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei are there too.

As Anime Banzai and Alafista have found before me, the official website for Zero no Tsukaima has been updated with some brief information about season 3. There’s nowhere new to navigate just yet other than information about the light novels and season 2 DVDs (and another MediaFactory event), but at least we are sure a season [...]

I'm working on some further work on the comments on my last GAR entry, but in the meantime I was prompted to write this by commenting on concretebadger's defence of the tsundere. I mentioned the Loli Trinity,¹ and began to cast my mind back to watching Zero no Tsukaima. (I hear there will be a third series. Since I like trash, I may even deign to watch it.) After some thought, a few amusing parallels began to emerge.

Typical Zero no Tsukaima hyjinks in the first episode. I laughed a lot during the first episode. The glasses that lit up when Saito looked at basically every girl was great. I really wish Saito would like, you know, grow some balls and stand up to Louise. She’s some bratty petite girl with pink hair [...]

For a huge fan of season one, I’m not looking forward to another installation of Zero no Tsukaima. I lay the blame squarely on the sequel which not only destroyed the good in the preceding season but went on to mercilessly quell the possibility of having an decent third. Zero no Tsukaima is mostly about [...]

It's been widely rumored for the past month or so that Zero no Tsukaima would see a third season, and proof comes in today via Moon Phase in the form of the cover of the 13th 0nT novel. No details have yet been divulged regarding when the series will air or what content it will cover, though the hope among fans is that it rights some of the wrongs inflicted by what turned out to be a less than well-received second season. We'll be keeping an eye on this for further details; the official 0nT anime site is here. (no more)
