Makai Ouji: devils and Realists episode 3

5th post!!! Go me!!! So proud. And my house is sparkling too. But by Wednesday the laundry will be piled up again and the anime episodes will be piled up. What can you do? XD Just try harder and roll with life. But maybe next weekend I will leave the house for a bit. Slightly boring just doing chores all day, even if I had horrible shark movies to watch. Sharks for all!

Maybe because no one will tell him what he forgot?

Stop leaving my sight!
Episode Summary: Father Crosby is seen....well talking to a spirit. Or getting rid of a demon. Which looks a bit odd since Father Crosby has a little demon working for him. He wonders what is up with all the demons around and realizes it must have something to do with the Elector and Demon Kingness. Elsewhere William is being upset and realistic about the current situation he is in while hanging up weird fliers for Father Crosby.. None of this can be possible. But if he rounds the corner there is Dantalion being popular with the sports team and Sytry (I hate spelling!) being....well popular with little boys who want to have sex with him apparently. Isaac thinks this is amazing and they must be using magic to be popular while William thinks this is more proof it isn't happening. Isaac is like woohoo it is time for rowing class but William wants to find a place to take a nap and get away from this chaos. As he goes to enter the church he sees the Head Boy pass him by. Thinking nothing of it William goes to enter said church but Father Crosby walks out, wondering what William wants. Williams thinks to himself maybe the Father could get rid of all the demons in his life and get his goals back on track. William asks if Father is capable of getting rid of demons which makes Father Crosby all HMMMM but answers yes, his kind of Father can do that. William holds back in revealing who said demons are and makes up some lie that he wanted to pray for his rowing team to win. William goes on his way but Crosby follows him. Dantalion runs up to William since it has been 5 seconds and he had no idea where William was. William calmly orders Dantalion to never show his face ever again and Dantalion is beyond devastated. He tells William it is not Solmon's pact that has the power of him, it is something that William has forgotten. Apparently getting in Williams face and trying to make it all slashy up in my yaoi colored glasses land was supposed to help him see the light. William is like get away from me and Dantalion warns others will be after him. Crosby listens to this all with a HMMMMM look on his face.

How much more denial can you be in?
William and Isaac are getting ready for bed when two other students with no facial features run in to tell William there is a ghost at the school. William obviously does not believe this as he is the King of Realisticness. They run to the kitchen to find one boy sneaking food and what looks like the ghost. They give chase and realize the ghost is a demon. Sytry appears and says if William chooses him he will protect them from the demon. William refuses because he doesn't believe this is happening. Sytry also gets in William's face, saying that Dantalion sucks but in this instance he thinks the demon is right, William needs to stop and believe. Sytry is a liar and protects the boys. He also leads them to where the demon has flown off too. Williams warns Sytry but the blue haired demon tries to enter the church. Father Crosby has created a trap for whoever came around first yay Sytry. He gets his ass kicked a bit as Sytry tries to explain Father Crosby kills demons while using a demon familiar. All of this ass kicking has gotten the attention of Dantalion who makes a barrier and generally pisses William off about even being in the same space. Dantalion goes on to barely explain that he was once like Crosby and that humans are way harshier than demons will ever be. Crosby then explains how Solomon (William) basically sold his soul to hell by agreeing to do this electing business and that it is his job to get rid of evil like that. With William on the line Dantalion takes over where Sytry left off and goes to kick Crosby's ass. Before Dantalion can land the killing blow William orders him to stop. Dantalion gets upset and tells William to really think about his words, that he can't keep hurting his feelings like this. William gives Dantalion a bit of attention which allows Crosby to escape. But Dantalion decides it is worth it as William has decided there is only a 99.9 percent chance demons aren't real and requests cake from GoatMan Butler. Dantalion takes that as a sign of true love and pledges his undying loyalty and yaoi tendencies to the man. Sytry also agrees to stick around and protect William as well. Crosby has made it back to...well the head church people and reported on what has happened and that William needs to be take care of. Back at the school Dantalion announces that the cake has arrived and Sytry and Isaac invite themselves to partake in said cake. William tries to brush it off but is stopped by Headmaster to introduce the new Father as Crosby is in the hospital. Surprise it's Keven WEEEE! THE END!

I just want to be with you!!!!!
I see that the animation was slightly better this week. Also we didn't exactly get another demon friend but I sense one is waiting in the wings. Still it is good that we got time to see and understand the same characters instead of introducing more. Of course it would be best if people opened up their mouths to explain EVERYTHING but you know...that would be silly.

I hope this isn't a drinking word or something....
I really should count how many times William says the word realists or something similar to it. We get it folks. You want people to be honest with you and trust you and realistic and heart of the cards and all that jazz. You don't have to say it every week for us to get it. Of course the alternative might be....recaps every day. Still I rather see William BEING a realists instead of insisting one being one. Also I think there is a difference between being a realistic and someone who doesn't accept the truth that is in front of their face. Wouldn't real realistic call William crazy for not accepting the cold hard facts that magic and demons exist when his life is on the line? Science can't prove everything and that is something William should accept before he becomes a splat on the ground. Or boring beyond words.

Serve me now you pitiful humans.
I like Sytry's way of handling the humans. It seems more natural than Dantalion playing sports with those lowly humans. Maybe since he used to be one he can relate to them better. Plus could you imagine Sytry trying to play a sport and getting DIRTY?! Yeah he might melt and die. So....they seem to be fitting in well. Which would all be fine and dandy if this was a competition on who could be the ruler of the world. But since they are trying to be the ruler of hell and only William matters maybe they should be doing more to get to him?
 photo realistepisode47_zps8f52b398.jpg
Surely you are a demon too!
William is not down for any of this crap. He has a perfect life ahead of him. I like how he is still a little bit hypocritical. I think all humans are deep down. William would be quick to turn someone else in if they were caught sleeping in the church. But since William is going through so much it is okay for him to do it. AHHH I see. The boy leaving the church, the Head Kid or whatever, he must be the demon in waiting. He is in the opening song looking sorta suspicious. William mentioned him so surely that must be the case. Make a passing comment and we will see what happens later I suppose.
 photo realistepisode48_zpsd502ef67.jpg
Yeah I wouldn't trust that face either.
As much as William hates all of this crazy stuff going on in his life he can't bring himself to tell Father Crosby. We viewers are like woohoo because that guy is creepy and we want William to see the light. Myself I think it is good William didn't say anything because had Father Crosby not been creepy William would have looked crazy. Funny how William doesn't believe in any of this nonsense yet is seeking out help to get rid of it. Did William have a change of heart or did he not want to involve someone else in his drama? Either way it did William no good because Father Crosby was able to put things together. Just this way William looks like he might care one tiny percent on what happens to Sytry and Dantalion.

I am yours whether you like it or not!
That lasted about five seconds because Dantalion runs by to make sure William is okay. Part of me thinks that is sweet and another part of me thinks this is super stalkery. Like if you are really worried about William have your bats follow him around continuously. You can't expect the boy to stay within eyesight for the rest of his life. I mean...are the demons going to stop bothering William once he picks a ruler? Like will the new King make it so no one can hurt William? I mean if I were William I would just get it over with. Pretend it is a dream and move on. Not William. He orders Dantalion to leave him alone and that is probably the worse thing ever. I mean....if Dantalion is mad that William “forgot” their bond, their love maybe he should say something. The boy doesn't even believe in demons, how can he remember the past.
 photo realistepisode414_zps28243c01.jpg
All these words apparently are making William's eyes cross-eyed.
Apparently hurting Dantalion's feelings came at a bad time. A ghost in on the loose. Or really another demon thing. Sytry needs to step it up. I mean he has come by to be picked for this temporary King job and has barely done anything. Well I guess I already said Dantalion hasn't done much either. But Sytry trying to act high and mighty around William is a bit eyerolling too. Like you can open your mouth too and explain what is going on. It is good to know that William only have power over the 72 demons but that is still a lot of demons. But when it comes down to it Sytry made a good point or really threat. Pick me for this king gig or die. Too bad Sytry didn't follow through. Probably because William would rather die.
 photo realistepisode413_zps4be355e7.jpg
I am guessing the sparkling outfit didn't work...
Father Crosby really kicked Sytry's ass. Like I was expecting more of a fight. Either Sytry needs more practice of Crosby is super powerful. I like how Dantalion came to help out but not before making people sweat a little. Not that Sytry really deserved it. More like do you need me now William? No okay....well I am coming to rescue you anyway. Also demons in a church...this was a bit odd but at least Dantalion said it was effecting their powers a bit.
 photo realistepisode415_zps436f10eb.jpg
I can understand his way of thinking...
As much as we are suppose to root for William I can see and understand what Crosby was saying. That hello he is going against HIS religion thus needs to be taken out. William is more in the middle, not believing in anything. Of course all of this would be easier to swallow if Crosby wasn't using demons himself. Or if Dantalion wasn't going on and on about how cruel humans can be to each other. This show has taken liberties when it comes to the facts about Christianity but still Dantalion was a bit overdramatic. Demons seem to be doing just fine acting evil, don't blame it on humans looking worse. Oh and can someone pick Sytry up off the floor?
 photo realistepisode416_zps8e1c8d8c.jpg
Maybe William really likes cake....
In the end....Dantalion should punch William in the face. I mean..he is trying to save his life again and William is like NOOOO stop. Only Dantalion didn't get a chance to get that angry. Because William has decided to acknowledge him in the tiniest bit. That maybe this destroyed church and people might be real. It might be actually happening. This tiny sliver of hope and request for cake is all that Dantalion needs. He doesn't really expect William to believe in all of this right away. Just give him a chance. That is how much Dantalion loves William. Which makes me wonder...how much Solomon loved Dantalion? If there was 72 demons? Sytry seems to feel this way too. I don't know. Maybe it was a “friendship”. Either way William is going to allow this...maybe..sorta...to happen and that is good enough for Dantalion.
 photo realistepisode4_zps981d2fa3.jpg
Um.....so when did this happen?
While William is waiting for cake Crosby and his injured self have made it back to base. Head church I am sure. William needs to be watched but by who? Why look who came for cake. It's Kevin! What is Kevin doing here? Last I checked he served William's family. Pretty sure that means he is not a real Father. So is he here to spy on William or protect him? XO What about the yaoi love triangle?! Does Kevin know what is up and that is why he is withholding the ring? William you need to be real with this upcoming news. XD

What ARE they think?!?!?!?! The row race is suppose to happen AFTER ep 6 materials!!! SAD, man, just sad. They probably just want the 3 main chara/demons out as soon as possible. STILL!! The gap is TOOOOOO BIG!! Oh, and I just check out ep4 materials, and that is supposed to occur after "The Great Sabbat" events, and because what happen in ep4, that's why "he" decide to become a candidates too........and appear in "The Great Sabbat" NOT before?!?!, and AHHHH >_<!! I am soooo MAD, they arrange the things so OUT of order, and I, I! (Take a deep breath, let it out) Sigh~ ....I don't know anymore. T_T

I don't know where this is going, but I have feeling they are going to mess up the story very, very bad. T_T According to the manga, the things just heating up (very nicely ~).

Hello @Christina

Off-Topic

I've been scouting for the new 2013 fall line up since summer is coming to an end.

Here's the link:

http://anichart.net/fall


After looking at the list, here are my suggestions:

Tokyo Ravens
Action comedy with supernatural powers. Let's hope it's not boring.

Blazblue: Alter Memory
Based on a fighting video game. Again, lots of actions and you probably won't feel bored. Also, just because. That's why. LOL!

Alter White 2
It's drama with romance added with slice of life. Might be interesting than the typical cute slice of life.

Diabolik
Since you like watching handsome men, this might be for you. It's basically one girl and six vampires who are hot. It's comparable to Vampire Knights but that's stretching the analogy a bit.

Gundam Build Fighter
It's Gundam. That is all.

Well, those are my picks. Would be interesting if you are watching them. I would like to hear your thoughts and opinions on them.

That's all

Hello @Christina

Second anonymous here again.

Forgot to add:

Since you're incredibly busy with work and life, you should take 3 shows at most from the list I gave.

Less stress that way.

I hope your new job is treating you well. :)

Anonymous 1- I am not familiar with the source material but even I can tell that things seem...rather special. Like hurry, introduce as many people as possible and cram all the demons into the school. Like can we have a little build up and time with the other characters please? Just all these people saying they want to be King...and not really doing much after it. I don't even get the feeling Camio/Nathan cares. X____X

Anonymous 2- The new job...well it's a job. XD Just going to take a lot to get used to, being alone great deal of the day. But hey...at least my co-worker has my back when customers get crazy. More than I can say about my last job you know?

Fall 2013 anime list already? Vampire Knights?!?!?! (screams into the night in horror!) I kid I kid. The picture of Pupa looks so creepy. Kyoukai no Kanata :( isn't a horror which makes me a sad panda. I think I need a horror show this season.

Thanks for the list. I need to catch up with this season first, then I will take a better look at what I will be behind on next season XD I kid...but probably not.
