Uragiri wa Boku no Namae wo Shitte Iru Episode 24: FINAL EPISODE!

Okay I said today was going to be a blogging marathon but that really didn’t happen. We didn’t go the movies either. So where did the day go? X_X I mean a good part of it was typing up the Anime Weekend Atlanta 2010 con report but what about the rest? I guess I got preoccupied with updating Facebook pictures, putting around all my lovely treasures, and bonding the neediest cat ever. Oh and looking on the AWA forums boards for discussions and what not. So yeah my blogging marathon hasn’t happened yet. Let’s see if I can change that right now XD.

What will I do without my weekly dose of IMPLIED yaoi?!

First up is Uragiri wa Boku no Namae wo Shitte Iru FINAL EPISODE. Or maybe not so final. Anyway I was going to flip a coin to see what got blogged first, this or K-On!! but someone told me to watch Uragiri wa Boku no Namae wo Shitte Iru because X_X. Well maybe not X_X but it made me X_X. If my face ever did X_X this is real life I probably should seek medical attention.

So be prepare for spoilers, possible disappointment, and everyone getting one last line in before THE END!

Let's make the whole episode about Hotsuma and Shuusei!

Episode Summary: Luka introduces Yuki to his younger twin brother Luze. Yuki is all XO for a while. Luza says something about how Luka destroyed their family name (what?!) and Luka is like I love Yuki so shut your mouth. Reiga then is like this is all your fault Yuki. Something about the light creates darkness or something. Mainly Reiga wants to cut Yuki deep and it works. Takashiro says some dramatic stuff to all the random second tier characters and he transports himself to the land of Reiga. Only Takashiro is all like AHA I will use dark power to fight you. Yuki watches as Reiga and Takashiro stare each other down and is all like it’s all my fault. BAM! It is time to bring out the awesome Yuki power. Now it can kill Duras so the generals run and the twin dude is killed. Also everyone is healed. Reiga is not hurt because the plot won’t allow it and Luka’s contract with Yuki protects him. Yuki can’t control his powers and he is losing control. Luka makes it to Yuki after a slow mo scene and Reiga is like what is this?! Takashiro tries to rub it in his face and bam….it’s over.

Time for sexy times!

Everyone is outside Yuki’s room looking nervous. Luka goes in and Yuki wakes up. Surprise everyone lived. Yuki promises to end the war and Luka is like FINE I will keep protecting you then. Takashiro goes and visits the shrine rock thing and talks about Yuki being a boy messing up how things were supposed to go and all. Tsukumo then tries to flirt with Shuusei with ice cream and baths. XO Sexy I know. Kuroto tries to be sexy with Hotsuma but they are too similar personality wise so it ends up being a fight. And Senshirou tries to have a conversation with someone that doesn’t have hair in their face but Tsukumo shuts that down. Then Hotsuma and Shuusei have the best conversation EVER people. Like go watch it now it was that awesome. Ice cream and Hotsuma saying he is going to marry Shuusei and sexy time talk. Best part of the entire episode. Yuki is like oh hell now I want to be romantic too so he takes Luka on a walk. Luka tries to make a contract with Yuki but Yuki wants it more on a trust/love level than master level. Then there is some talk about how Yuki wants to protect everyone and that future will be okay as he runs to all his friends with Luka watching on. THE END!

WELL THEN PEOPLE!

Okay I was the one singing hey let’s get a second season folks. I probably was leading the parade to in the WE NEED A SEASON TWO PARADE! Do I get a cool cane?
However people I want to go on record and state I only wanted a season two AFTER this one ended awesome like. Like I didn’t think everyone was going to make it out alive but I was expecting Luka and Yuki to live. Maybe Takashiro and Reiga taking each other out and Luze becoming the new baddie. I was not expecting this at all.

Yuki…seriously. There are some major battles going on and you are leaning against the wall. Do you need a nail file? Want a magazine? I realize that you can’t REALLY do anything but have some expression on your face. LOOK PANICKED! Like do that thing where you pretend to run over to the fight but you have to hold back. Something. MOVE.

We have issues to work through.

And then there is Luka. Oh yeah my twin brother. Didn’t I tell you about that? Oh yeah, I don’t tell you about ANYTHING! But maybe the middle of a battle is the not the place to explain your deep dark secrets. However since Luze and Luka are twins it might have been important to tell Yuki that small detail. You know as Luza could have impersonated you at any time. We all know how prevalent evil twins are in animes/mangas so I think people need to be prepared.

Not necessary Reiga. -_-

Reiga was more than a jerk today. I don’t even think he was believing all the crap that came out of his mouth but it was cruel and uncalled for? Yuki causes darkness? The more awesome Yuki is the more crap will come his way? Oh okay you asshole. Because Yuki doesn’t already have problems with blaming every little thing on himself now we got to make up stuff. So yeah that was uncalled for.

Takashiro and his goodbye speech was a little useless. Mainly because he didn’t do anything. Like woohoo I am coming to do great darkness on your ass but I am not going to have a chance to do anything. More like him and Reiga just had an epic stare down while thinking about that random dead chick.

You probably died a virgin but you weren't getting any from these two guys.

See even all the chicks in this anime KNOW the boys are all gay. “Special world” indeed.

So after all the hype of a final battle and Takashiro himself thinking he is going to die Yuki randomly lights up like a Christmas tree and off the light beams go. Only NOW the light beam can kill Duras. New awesome rule people. The two Generals got away but the Twinless Twin died. No real lose there but why wasn’t Reiga at least a little hurt? He is part Duras so maybe he should have been on the floor looking a little hurt and sad.

Going towards the light is actually important now!

The dramatic moment of the episode was Luka reaching out for Yuki. Reiga and Takashiro decided to have a heart to heart. Hi, let’s look at these lovebirds isn’t this what you want Reiga? Yeah your life sucks. I am so sure that is what Reiga was searching for all his life, the love of his life finding love with someone else. Way to go Takashiro.

...Who needs kisses when we have HANDSHAKES?!

So…did Luka help Yuki not explode or something? It was all slow like and POOF it was over. We trust each other and might love each other but heaven forbid someone say the l-word. So that running towards Yuki the Christmas Tree was too special for words. Just yeah.

And then it was over people. Our final battle had a few drops of blood and some scratches. The only person who died was some lame Duras no one even cared about anyway and we thought he died a while back anyway. Everyone lives HURRAY! But it was more like everyone lives but nothing got resolved kinda fight which was really unsatisfying.

The ice cream of friendship.

The sword of passion.

The snacks of get the hell away from my sister before I cut your balls off.

So since not one damn thing was resolved with this fight we had to have some sort of closure. First off the Guardians were all breaking off into their not Guardian pairs to spend time together. Tsukumo finally realized that he has no yaoi pairing going on and that his nearest romantic interest is his sister. So he branched out and flirted with Shuusei. Sneaky move since Hotsuma was busy sleeping. But then Kuroto was like well Senshirou doesn’t spend enough time with me so I will make him jealous by play fighting with Hotsuma. And Senshirou and Toko were boring. Tsukumo probably should have approved more but maybe he is scared of Kuroto too.

Must not pass out from cute....

THEN THE CUTEST SCENE EVER HAPPENED! Shuusei and Hotsuma felt bad for the random flirting scenes and came together for one last scene. Shuusei gave up his Tsukumo ice cream which was cute. Then Hotsuma was finally able to see Shuusei’s scar in a more positive light. I kinda like how he spun it, that the scar is proof of how far Shuusei was willing to go to save him. A beautiful moment people. Then Shuusei decides to get playful in a mean way. Hotsuma takes the playing the wrong way and has a spaz attack.

Over here, dying from the most awesome scene ever!

Then he says the best line ever. I’LL TAKE FULL RESPONSIBILITY! See people in the anime/manga world that is code for I will marry you and take care of you for the rest of your life. Usually when someone steals a first kiss or something equally as traumatizing like that. So when he said that line I turned into a fangirling mess all over the floor. Because romantic people. Shuusei laughs and Hotsuma continues to spaz and in my fangirl crazy mind the melted ice cream represented something people. Something sexy.

And then the other random characters that no one cares about said things and did things and I didn’t care. Sorry necromancer in training. DO NOT CARE ABOUT YOU!!!

Um..maybe a hug is in order....

Yuki didn’t die folks. He just has more of a resolve to end this war. He doesn’t say HOW he is going to end it or what he is going to do…just that he is going to do it. Luka is slightly pissed that Yuki always has to suffer but generally supports his decision to be self sacrificing and such. Only if Luka is allowed to be beside him while the drama is happening.

There is a serious lack of touching here...

And at the very end of the episode Yuki and Luka go on a walk. No hand holding, no kisses, no confesses of love. I demand my yaoi and I demand it now. But Luka does try to make another contract with Yuki and Yuki makes it more into a promise, that he doesn’t want to own Luka. Which I guess is pretty romantic when you think about it. Yuki says some stuff about wanting everyone to be happy and such and TADA it is the end, with Yuki running towards everyone and Luka calming walking behind him.

Okay this is touching but I want more!

So that is it people. Pretty sure we are going to get a season two but it makes me sad that NOTHING got resolved. Reiga still has his bad guy tendencies because I think that conversation him and Takashiro meant nothing. Hotsuma and Shuusei are still lovely dovey while the other characters are more or less the same as they were 3 episodes ago. We have a new bad guy…and yeah that’s it. X_X

So season two you better step up your game. I want Yuki and girl Yuki to have a discussion. I want Luka to tell Yuki about his past life. I want clothes on the floor. Oh and maybe some serious battles. The only person who was down for the count was Tsukumo. But now Reiga is looking like a loser so that was lame. Real battles, real danger, and Yuki needs to man up.

Until next time....

How long do we have to wait for season two? I guess that will be a guessing game. But I do want to thank everyone who left comments and had discussions on these posts. It made me so happy that people liked what I was saying and that people were sharing the manga with other people. XD Thank you my loyal readers.
