Kyou Kara Maou R! – 05 Review

Impression + Summary

Woohoo!!
Dang, this episode is good!
After having just seen ep 3 of the new season, watching this ep was like the icing on delicious cake.
This ep got me shaking with excitement in my chair! (Okay, it might have been the cold weather plus the green tea ice cream that i was eating, but this was still an exciting ep! :P)

Okay, so the last ep of the OVA is titled Small Shimaron’s Young King (part 2)

This basically continues from the first ep of the OVA.

This episode is basically Yuuri being in Small Shimaron and Sararegi (the king) has an ulterior motive behind what he is doing. The rest of the gang is worried that something might happen and so they chase after Yuuri all the way into Small Shimaron.

Honestly, I felt that this ep was made just so that the fans can have fun watching it.

You get to see Shori and his over protectiveness (which is simply hillarious!), and Shin-ou appears, the rest of the cast gather to appear in Small Shimaron and even Alderbert is there helping Shin Makoku.

With nice fighting action and cute scenes, this episode was probably the best of the lot.

Plus I cannot stop laughing at the reason behind why Shori was even there in the first place (to be a battery recharger for Yuuri) It was just a blast to watch this episode.

Okay, the reason as to why Yuuri was brought there was because the King wanted to make use of Yuuri’s powers. Why? Haven’t got a clue yet. It seems that there is a possibility of Sararegi appearing in Season 3 because it does not look like he has given up. He did say that he is liking Yuuri even more than before ( ooOooOo ). I hope that he does appear but as a good guy and not a bad one.
The mystery surrounding Sararegi’s powers was not addressed. Plus we don’t really know much about Sararegi, just enough to make us want to know more.
From looking through the list of voice actors in Kyou Kara Maou, it seems like Sararegi is going to appear in Season 3 too. Lets hope that is true.

Oh, did I mention that Wolfram got all jealous whether Yuuri held Sara’s hands?
I thought that that action felt like it was more than just friendship (though judging by Yuuri character, it probably isn’t) However, Wolfram got into a fit about it. Hahaha

The dissapointing thing about this ep is that it is over. T_T
And, Yozak was not wearing a dress. LOL, that always cracked me up. Dang.
Sararegi seems like a pervert. ^^: for some reason. His obsession with Yuuri is freaky.

Anyway, it is basically a really fun and interesting episode to watch!

Screen Caps time!

Kyou Kara Maou R!

KKM R! on ANN

I just finish watching ep 4 of KKM R! And throughout the whole thing I was so certain that this OVA was a build up to the new season coming out this month.
However, at the end of ep 4 of the OVA there was a preview for the next episode of KKM R! and it was a continuation to the plot in the first ep. As such, I am somewhat confuse right now as to what is going on and what will happen later on.

I cannot figure out what the main purpose of KKM R! is, however I guess it can be seen as a 2 hours long preview to the next season.

New characters are introduced that will most likely play a crucial role in the upcoming season…

Old characters are brought back…

And some funny incidents happen…

Honestly, though I had fun with this short OVA, I must be frank that this anime was somewhat of a mess.

The first episode was great with some tension, some mystery, some bigger thing going on, comic relief moments here and there, the end of the first ep had created a build up for a bigger storyline and danger.

The second~fourth episode however, we are back in Shin Makoku and it seemed like nothing happened. I guess now thinking about it, ep 2-4 might be somewhat of a “before-ep-1” sort of situation. In these eps we see episodic situations happening and we find out that Shin Ou is still around and he plans on popping by now and then.

My guess would be that ep 5 would be a continuation of ep 1 and it would end there and continue in the new season. Right now I just don’t really know.

I had fun, I laughed, I felt that I should hide my head in the ground at times (due to some lame moments), but it was entertaining enough.

Perhaps this anime has diverted from being a teenage anime to more of a young teens sort of anime. For a moment when I was watching it I felt like one of those kids that watched Pokemon. (^_^!) But I have loved KKM since it’s debut and I still love it.

While there will probably be serious moments with some good fighting scenes and hillarious moments, this might not be an anime for people who are sourcing for a “quality” plot in an anime. There is nothing to deep here that a primary school kid would not understand(at least in my opinion).
The animation for the OVA is decent and borderlining on nice at times. The characters are of course goodlooking 😉

I would really like to see where this anime is headed both for the OVA and the new season that is to come out.

If anyone knows what is happening or what is about to happen, I would be glad if you could tell me.
