Mirai Nikki episode 3

All I have to say is USE COASTERS! Coasters are our friends. USE THEM!

But cross yo fingers. Tell the rain it can come Tuesday of next week. Just not Sunday and Monday. I am trying to see if we can sneak a visit with Mickey after losing our minds the night before at Universal. Cross yo fingers.

I hate those rides! But the commentary is funny. XD

Until then it is time to watch insane stuff. Like Mirai Nikki episode 3. And eat more cupcakes. Because I have to buy what is on sale and if that is a package of 12 cupcakes so be it. Spoilers for fanservice and MOG dead bodies!

They bounce back fast. It's not like half of their schoolmates are under a building or something.

Episode Summary: Yuno is happily dragging Yuki around an amusement park. Yuki feels as if he is suffering but puts up with it. In a flashback it is shown that Keigo has asked them to hang out there to act as bait. He wants to flush out Minene and also work on finding out who the other 7 are. So in the meantime Yuki and Yuno can have fun fun dates while being bait YAY! There are two almost identical scenes on different days with cops stopping and check cars for Minene. Each day Minene tries to escape but following her future diary doesn’t work. She is also quietly being stalked by a high school boy. Despite being stabbed in the eye she has a strong will to live given she grew up in a war torn country. On day two of our most excellent date ever Yuno starts to show Yuki her cute and vulnerable side. Also she shows him a bit of her boobies as a quick trip to a water ride leaves her top less. Yuki is rendered unconscious as she hides her tatas in his chest. On the Ferris Wheel ride Yuki asks Yuno why she is so cray cray and stalks him. She answers that a year ago they had a conversation about seeing the stars and that when he rudely turned her down for a date he did in fact promise to marry her when they grew up. Yuki then goes OHHHH but you still hiding something?

Photobucket

Sure. We will go with that.

On the way home it starts to rain and Yuno invites Yuki to her house. Keigo smirks as he knew that Minene was not going to find the kids this week but he had something else planned anyway. The high school student has made it to Minene and takes her to a safe place in a random shack. Thinking she is safe Minene takes the pills given to her. Soon she realizes taking pills from people wearing paper bags over their heads is a very bad idea. He transforms into a crazy creature and demands to know about the future diary owners. Yuno goes to cut up an apple and Yuki leaves to find a bathroom. He finds a room covered in tape and he decides oh hi this looks interesting let me open it up. WHOOOOSH! Everyone’s future diary changes and Deus is like YES this is amazing. Inside the room Yuki thinks he sees mummified dead bodies. Yuno cries as she stands behind him, saying things were going well. Yuki runs like hell all way home but Yuno follows him so she can say goodnight. THE END!

Holy crap. I was going to write blah blah Yuji Walks Around Town Part Two. And it nearly was. Then BAM Yuno is still insane. Super duper insane.

This could all be a cover up but I think that maybe…just maybe Yuno will actually be insane. That this is not her being framed and maybe there is a good reason for all of this. I think that this one has flown over the nest and into the crazy bin.

But before that everything was going great in Yuki land. I do love me some amusement park episodes. Guess because I wish that every day can be like that for me. XD I say this while trying to secure tickets to DisneyWorld on Monday. Yay for procrastination!

I have always loved you Yuki!!!!

So that part of the episode was pretty….tame. Ordinary if you would. Not that anything is wrong with that. But it felt odd in light of what this show is about. Crazy people trying to kill each other while trying to replace the God of Time. So maybe….maybe in light of half their classmates being blown into tiny pieces it might have been disrespectful to be out having fun and being bait on roller coasters. But that is just me.

Photobucket

See I'm NORMAL!!!!

But putting aside that half the town’s young people got blasted into the sky it looked like Yuno was having fun. I mean….instead of being an amazing master mind she turned into a ditzy girl who just wanted to have fun. In the process she showed Yuki her vulnerable side by being scared in the haunted house, proved that she has an endless supply of money to buy him snacks, and that she isn’t all THAT smart by being unable to properly tie swimsuit strings. See, isn’t Yuno looking like a normal girl now?

I still find it so weird that they rent swimsuits at those kind of places. Weird out of my mind folks.

Photobucket

Swimsuit strings are HARD!

Yuno even had a chance to show that she wasn’t insane. See she actually “told” Yuki she liked him last year. And he promised to marry her. He was off being so emo about his future plans (really? Really?! I understand divorce is tough but seeing the stars with your family doesn’t pay the bills) and Yuno comes over and doesn’t make fun of him. Instead she tries to ask him out on a date. To which he was rude about. RUDO. He says no to the date and yes to the marriage so either way he is on the hook. So maybe….maybe Yuno isn’t that insane.

Photobucket

To flush everyone out I want you to put yourself in danger by riding on rides that put you hundreds of feet in the air. Perfect idea.

She and Yuki are in fact stupid. An amusement park is way too dangerous to be hanging out in. When your enemy likes to use bombs maybe you should not be so high off the ground. Just saying. Just saying. Go watch Final Destination 3 in case you don’t catch my drift.

Photobucket

X_x Well then...

We got a tiny bit of back story with Minene. She is from a war torn country it seems which probably explains some of the crazy. Not that I am saying everyone who goes through that will become insane like her. Just that when your parents are killed in front of you and your only way to survive is to do horrible things it will take your toll on you.

Minene is unable to escape due to the actions of someone. I don’t know if it is Keigo the cop or the random high school student who eventually found her. I am thinking it is the random high school student. She probably needs to check her diary a little more often as she got slipped a pill. Poor Minene. She is so injured she wasn’t thinking right. Not on her A-game if you would.

Photobucket

I think he needs a bigger paper bag.

But was all that really happening after she took the pill or was that just in her mind? She had a pretty good looking eyeball despite being stabbed two days ago but now it might have been ripped out of her head. So it really doesn’t matter. Of course upon watching that scene again that high school dude could have been a monster all along and the drugs she took helped her to wake up and realize her phone was gone.

So the end of the episode was when the real X____X moment happened. It isn’t raining that hard outside but the lights are out. Maybe believable. Japanese people do not like eating the skin off fruit so her leaving to do that is believable. Then BAM!

Photobucket

Really, really dead bodies. Stupid lights. I want to see more!

Although I do find it hard to believe that in the “normal” timeline Yuki did not open the door. It appears that Yuki opening the door drastically changed the course of the game. That he and Yuno would have made it to the end together and since he opened the door every single person has had their fate changed.

Photobucket

Well clearly there is nothing to see here.....

So maybe next time we want to hide something we will not put caution tape all over the damn place. And maybe hide the bodies. I’m just saying. Just saying if you want to invite your boyfriend over maybe you should hide dead mommy and daddy somewhere else. JUST SAYING.

Photobucket

Maybe I will be Yuno for Halloween?

Yuki does not react well to finding dead people in the room. Deus seems delighted. He also says some random words that don’t make a lot of sense to me. And on his way home Yuno follows him and bids him goodnight. He has learned very fast that pretending to be in love with a crazy person is probably not the best thing for your mental health. Yay for learning things at a lightning fast speed.

Photobucket

Just...so so well.

Does this mean things are going to get really interesting now? I already knew Yuno was crazy cray but now Yuki is a little bit…shall we say scared to go to her for protection? Which might be bad since her Diary is to see his 10 minutes in advanced. Bring on the crazy!!!

Since I love to critic...
Why is it opening that door changed the future drastically?
A so called "future diary" should have put it's owner action and personality into consideration.
That's how it worked in any other time travel story, and by common sense, that's how it should be.
Anybody would open such a weird and suspicious door! The diary should state "I saw a weird door on the way to bathroom. I opened it." from the start.

Well, this episode was weird, insane and interesting, oh and a bit funny too.

At first I was like "ah an amusement park, Yuno being cute and clumsy" although I thought she was doing those things on purpose so idk and then Yukii being scared xDDD and all of a sudden the big eye guy "extracting" some information and of course, Yukii finding eh... Yuno's family?

Maybe the first scenes of the first episode are related to this, maybe Yuno was murdering her sister because the other person was saying "Mama... Papa" and then after the murder, the person with the mask says "Save me... Amano-kun" or so I think.

Anyway, I am interested to know if there is going to be a good reason behind these murders or not, after all Yuno can't be that insane, she followed Yukii all the way back to his home just to tell him good night :P

Eternia- I do think that in any timeline a normal person would have opened that door. But maybe in THIS timeline Yuno is trying to hide things from Yuki and in her her mind placing a big DO NOT ENTER sign in front of a door would have stopped Yuki from entering. That is the real reason why they were at the amusement park. Yuno was trying to infect Yuki with her crazy, it is contagious.

But yes it is weird that Yuki had not opened that door on his own accord in the "right" timeline. Maybe Yuno did a good job of acting normal and he forgot to be scared of her.

Ruben- I honestly had forgotten about that scene. It was mentioned it wasn't the serial killer but Yuno? I can see her killing her parents but I would be upset if she killed her sister. X__X Wait now I sound insane.

But if this a new timeline maybe Yuno had had enough of her family. Obviously each time they did something to her and this time she decided to take matters into her own hands. And then lived with the bodies. Because that is what crazy people do.

I believe that Yuno tries to drug Yuki in this episode which probably also has an effect on time, just before he enters the room you see the text on his phone. Read the last few entries.

Yuno brought the peeled apple. It looks good.

The apple's starting to change colour.
It's beginning to...
