Fate/kaleid liner Prisma Illya episode 10 FINAL EPISODE!

Hello there my lovely and patient readers. It is I the busy one. Last week work was...stressful to say the least. Each day could have had it's own blog post. Each and every day was full of wonderful and new sucks that made me worry for the human race. Thankfully Saturday afternoon came and I could escape work...even if it was for an afternoon and a half.

This would be my computer exploding over the awesome graphics in this episode.
Today I only left the house once to get some nourishment. Despite only working 2.5 days this week (so glad the husband was able to get his job back, even if the pay thing might be late/iffy) the husband neglected to purchase some real noms for us. Moe's it is then! But other than that it was clean the house and catch up on anime posts today. First things first. Fate/kaleid liner Prisma Illya episode 10. The shortest show I watched for the Summer 2013 season has finally ended. Will it end in heartache or toothache? SO MUCH SUGAR!

Trust in the sparkles.
Episode Summary: Miyu looks on in awe as Illya has appeared in her amazing magical girl self. Illya has killed Berserker once. As he comes back Illya calls out to Rin and Luvia. They use their jewels to bind Berserker temporarily. Miyu wants to know why Illya is here. Illya apologizes. She thought being a magical girl was a game, that none of it was real and it didn't affect her. But when Miyu stepped up for Illya felt so bad. Miyu tries to say this is what she wanted but really she is so happy Illya showed up. Illya gives her back her wand as Luvia and Rin look on, happy at their friendship. Berserker starts to free himself so the girls decide to go with a risky plan. Basically Illya attacks and acts like the bait. When Berserker attacks Illya Rin and Luvia use most of their crystals to blind Berserker. Illya uses one of her strongest attacks to blast Berserker to Miyu who kills him again. The girls stop to see if it is the last kill. Of course it's not and the older girls use the very last of their crystals to protect the others from his blast. They are okay but out of ammo. Illya starts to get really worried but Miyu says they are in this together. Then it becomes a magical moment of trust and sparkles. Illya promises to never run away again and Miyu promises to count on their friendship. Now despite downloading this episode the graphics are so amazing the show really cuts in and out after the sparkle friendship moment. What I think happens is the girls summon up Saber's sword and kill Berserker for the last time. All the cards have been collected celebration!

I guess Miyu has a bit of work to do.
The girls rest on the building top in the real world. Rin really thanks the girls for all their hard work and sticking with them until the end. Everyone smiles...until Luvia steals all the cards and hops on her helicopter. Rin gives chase as Illya and Miyu look on. They walk home hand in hand and it is magical. Illya is having a dream that her lovely brother is trying to wake her up and she asks for a kiss. Only when she wakes up she sees she was kissing Miyu. Illya freaks out but Miyu seems okay with kissing if Illya asks permission next time. The ladies of the house hear Ilyla freaking out. The maids are a bit :( to see Mom leaving so soon but she needs to go back to her husband. She spent enough time with her kids okay. It turns out that Miyu was waking up Illya because they have class duty and now they will be late. They decide they have to fly to make it on time and it is just so wonderful. They are found really bonding by Illya's friends. Some are like why the sudden change while others embrace it. One tries to tell Miyu they will all get along lovely when Miyu is like no I don't like you guys? I only need Illya and Illya only needs me. The girl starts crying, Illya tries to make peace, and Miyu is like no I mean this all. Illya realizes that life is suffering. Rin gets that understanding too as the helicopter has crashed and she has gotten word from headquarters they are to stay in Japan. After the credits it looks like Maya has landed nearby? THE END!

Can't you feel the love tonight?!
And then the show is over. It sorta felt like it never started and dragged at some points. I think I have said that before. I must be old...repeating myself. But apparently there is going to be a next season. Things were rushed and dragged for no reason I suppose.
 photo illyaepisode102_zpsecedef69.jpg
You two have a heart to heart. We got this apparently.
First things first. Wasn't it nice of Berserker to stand still while Miyu and Illya had their heart to heart? Okay I know that Rin and Luvia used a lot of their jewels to hold him in place. And that he wasn't giving them time. But it felt like it at times. XD Like oh okay thanks for giving us time to talk baddies. That often happens in anime. Well in many shows. Sorta like how the baddies will only fight one at a time with the hero. Thank you so much for giving us space.
 photo illyaepisode103_zpsc4186ab4.jpg
Well...to be fair it was scary stuff.
Nothing really earth shattering was said between Miyu and Illya. It has been clear what Illya's stance has been this entire time. I want to have fun, being a magical girl is like the animes. Only when it got real Illya got the hell out of dodge. Again I wish there was more focus on Illya losing her mind and potentially hurting her allies. That should have been the big point. That Illya was so emotional that the other girls couldn't take the risk. But that was quickly brushed aside and Miyu just wanted to protect Illya and that is why she sent her away. Illya was scared of getting hurt and ran away. Now Illya is done running and Miyu might be ready to admitt that she needs more people in her life.
 photo illyaepisode104_zps3e0d6843.jpg
Well they are ten...maybe things can be simple?
Is that a bit simple? Not every show can be amazingly complex, full of Titans eating your face, or over the top. Sometimes life needs simple. We have slice of life shows. And I quite like a lot of those. So I guess there is no reason to be super critical of how simple things were in this show? I guess I was expecting more. Why was Illya breaking and turned into Saber? How was she able to get so strong? Maybe I should have been asking those questions as this show was piggybacking under the success of Fate. But....perhaps this is just a water down version of that show for the kids and young at heart? Or you know...a blatant way to make more money so who needs to answer more questions?
 photo illyaepisode105_zpsf8b1499f.jpg
Good think Illya is taking the risk. XD
All this loveliness was lost on Rin and Luvia. I mean they saw it but obviously can't apply it to their own lives. Instead the girls decided to focus on Berserker. Again what a quick plan they came up with, especially since Illya hadn't been part of the attack 1.0. But the girls quickly pulled it together. Like Illya...you be the bait. You are good at that. Rin and Luvia will blind the beast. And Miyu who magically regained enough mana to do a super attack...will do a super attack. Because she is the bomb.
 photo illyaepisode1011_zps54749c10.jpg
I have no battle scene. Have a friendship one instead. My computer could handle this.
That wasn't enough. Because this Berserker has tons of lives. The older two girls ran out of jewels. I mean I am sure it takes a long time to make those things but Rin has no money and Luvia is stingy so you know. Or really who knows. XD That means it was time for the super, super attack. No the girls didn't turn back into amazing Saber and Archer. Because that would make me happy. No....the power of friendship truly powered them up and almost destroyed my computer in the process. I literally have no idea what the battle looked like. I tried to fast forward it, pause it, and skip the spot where it was causing me problems. It was a no go. So all I saw was Miyu and Illya having this special bonding moment because the have known each other for 2 weeks and are the best friends forever and that is enough power to defeat anything. DUH!!! YAY FOR WINNING!
 photo illyaepisode1014_zps1cf6198e.jpg
What kind of thanks is that?!?!
So where does this leave Rin and Luvia? Well as you recall Rin was trying to thank the young girls for all their hard work and Luvia swooped in to steal all the Class Cards. With her helicopter. Because she is rich bitch. Rin and her Spiderman powers was able to cling to said helicopter. And since she is really the Hulk and not Spiderman the helicopter crashes. I was kinda wondering what was going to happen to the girls as they weren't coming back to headquarters with said annoying talking wands. But now none of that matters. XD Because they were told by the Head Dude that they have to stay in Japan. Learn. Become the friendship. Interesting. And special. Like say what? How many more things do we have to do to get into this Academy thing? One hand the girls maybe deserve this for...their behavior. On the other hand...they did their job (to his knowledge) so let them come home.
 photo illyaepisode109_zpsea4ed8fc.jpg
Although Luvia did just leave Miyu behind without a second thought....
I guess this is a good thing though. I mean where was Miyu going to live? This show hasn't been very...in-depth about anything. So if Luvia leaves what happens to Miyu? If we recall Miyu briefly told Illya that she was all alone in this world when Luvia took her in. Probably because Sapphire sensed the girl had a strong desire to change. Like yeah this girl needs magic in her life. So without Luvia what would Miyu?
 photo illyaepisode1010_zps7bc83811.jpg
Oh you are so bold Illya!!!
Oh you mean live with Illya because she is in love with the girl? I see now. No more questions from me. For 5 seconds the show almost went back to Illya being in love with her brother. Reward me with a kiss as I gag and stab myself in the face you mean. Instead Miyu had crept in her room...like a creeper and got kissed instead. And since Illya and Miyu met two weeks ago, had two misunderstandings, and made up the day before this all okay. Miyu and Illya forever.
 photo illyaepisode1015_zps6c910d33.jpg
What part of Illya is mine do you not understand?
No I meant it. Illya and Miyu forever. Miyu wanted to do everything on her own. But clearly in that scene where I couldn't see anything because the graphics blew everything up...important stuff happened. Miyu won't leave Illya's side. Illya is hers. All those other friends that I never bothered to learn their names...BEGONE! Illya is not for you karate chop!!! If I were Illya's friends I would be a little upset about the situation. Like look hommie we tried to be nice to you for the past 10 days and you are a roller coaster of crazy. Time to step. Illya is our friend too. I like how Illya acknowledged the real suffering has begun. YAY FRIENDSHIP! I am sure deep down Illya is happy too.
 photo illyaepisode10_zpse3a1d8e0.jpg
Season two is that way?
So is that about it? Mom left town because one night with her daughter is enough. Barely so Mr. Important Brother. The maids are special. I guess Miyu can keep on living with Luvia in the random mansion that was built in 8 hours. Illya and Miyu get to keep the wands and fly to school (FRIENDSHIP IS SO MAGICAL) because no one at headquarters was going to miss the super powered up magical wands. No no no folks. Miyu will be friends forever with Illya, Illya will suffer happily, and Rin and Luvia will learn how to get along or they can kiss their dream jobs goodbye. That about wraps up this show right? Wait a minute...who just arrived at the airport? Season two?! What is this madness?! Are they going to use the cards to fight other heroics now? I mean..character development was flimsy at best during this show. But the art was spot on almost all the time (well not the huge ears). I am not sure where this show can go next but apparently it is going there. Until next time? X_x

Fate/kaleid liner Prisma Illya episode 9

 photo illyaepisode93_zps4cb0dc41.jpg
Just my flying and talking magical girl wand. Nothing to see here.
See? I had posts nearly ready to go. XD Just need to go the final step and get the pictures. A lot of catching up to do this week. Got to focus and buckle down before the next event. So onward to Fate/kaleid liner Prisma Illya episode 9. You know, before the series is over and Fall Anime 2013 is upon us. Spoilers for Illya's mom bringing on the wisdom.
 photo illyaepisode96_zps9dc688ea.jpg
Way cooler than me!
Episode Summary: Because this is anime it is necessary to show 11 year olds taking a bath. Thank goodness for smoke and bubbles. Illya is like this is the life. Ruby is soaking in her own tub as Illya realizes this is the first normal night she has had in a while. Ruby wonders why Illya isn't more happy. At that moment Illya's Mom (just going with mom because you know..the names) comes home. She is in a mini break from work but will go back soon since Dad is still there. Because animes are inappropriate Mom gets in the bath with Illya for some bonding and boobies rubbing to make them grow. Mom picks up on the fact that Illya seems off. Illya thinks Mom is going to guess about the magical girl stuff. Instead Mom is like um no there is a new mansion across the street? Illya is like oh yeah Miyu lives there. Illya starts talking about how a girl named Miyu moved in recently and goes to her school. She is careful how she talks about Miyu, She says that Miyu is a quiet girl who is super smart and strong. That they were friends and were working on something together. Illya really messed up though because she can't be amazing like Miyu and that Miyu would be better on her own. Mom says that everyone needs someone...sometime. That people like Miyu need people the most. That Miyu probably agreed to do this project alone not to hurt Illya or that she thinks she is better. But because she likes Illya. Illya is like thanks Mom. She runs out of the house and towards the direction of the last card, asking Ruby to transform her again. 

During/alongside all of this Miyu meets up with Rin and Luvia on top of a huge building. They enter the Mirror World where they find it extremely small. They don't have to look for the last card as Berserker finds them, the Hercules one. He starts thrashing around. Sapphire warns he is too strong for her barrier to work. All the girls attack but nothing really seems to stick. Almost like his super spell is protection. Eventually Miyu lands a serious blow, stabbing him in the heart. There is hardly any rejoicing as Miyu is nearly splatted when Berserker...dies and comes back. Like some sort of lava makes him resurrected. Rin and Luvia finally understand what his true ability is, to bring himself back to life. Luvia takes Miyu and escapes with Rin inside the building. They decide they are going to try another day since he is much too strong. Miyu creates the pathway and....walks out, with Rin and Luvia sent away. Sapphire is like what are you doing?!? Miyu wants to end this today as Rin and Luvia will make Illya fight next time. Miyu has a secret weapon. She will become a heroic spirit just like Illya did. Before Berserker smashes her face in Miyu transforms into Saber. Looking amazing Miyu kills Berserker again. Sapphire is like he has infinite lives, we have to leave. Miyu says that would be too powerful and she will eventually kill him for good. Berserker starts to learn and is able to stop previous attacks. Miyu uses Saber's ultimate attack. As Berserker dies into sparkles Miyu thinks about how she is doing this for Illya. That she wants to do it alone, to take the burden away from Illya, and that she is afraid she might have a crazy power attack like Illya. That is all for the first person who called her friend. Berserker comes back and Miyu is awfully tired. Sapphire starts to worry as Miyu gets her butt kicked. Then BAM Berserker is dead again. Illya has appeared to save her precious friend. THE END!

Illya really does like the simple things in life doesn't she?
Funny how this series is so short, so very short, and yet it seems like it is the master of stretching things out. I guess they needed to fill the episodes somehow since 2 of the 7 cards were already before the series. Still so much talking.
 photo illyaepisode94_zps225faf0e.jpg
Why hello there brother of not around muchness.
I sorta broke this episode up by sections. Like what happened with Miyu and what happened with Illya. Even though things were taking place at the same time. Hope things still make sense. Even if I am famous for my misspellings and confusion.
 photo illyaepisode9_zps85e93f39.jpg
....Are men that lonely?
Is there something wrong with the male population in Japan? Because I don't need to see 11 year olds taking baths. No I don't. Nor do I need to see their mothers rubbing their boobies to make them grow. Perhaps I am just a prude and rather see Titans munch on people, grinding them into tiny pieces. But really I don't see why this is necessary. Just to sell the Blu-Ray when they come out so pervs can see the uncensored bathing scene? No thanks. Illya could have gotten her hair brushed the entire time instead.
 photo illyaepisode95_zps103835de.jpg
This smile was deceitful.
Since she didn't though....onward to talking. Must fill in the gaps of time. Somehow. For some reason I just assumed Mom knew about this. That they aren't neglectful parents and know about the magical world too. That they are off saving people as well. That Mom came back on purpose to help push Illya along. However...hope. Mom is here just to be here. At least she noticed the HUGE house. Like really folks?!
 photo illyaepisode99_zps551cf925.jpg
Because she is too awesome yes?
I was kinda surprised that Illya said she and Miyu were friends. Maybe that is just what she said in front of her mom. Like yeah....it is too complicated to really explain the entire story. Because Illya wants to be Miyu's friend. It looks like Miyu doesn't want Illya's help or friendship. But since Illya gave Mom the water down version of the events we will just file this under....it's complicated.
 photo illyaepisode913_zps495a05fe.jpg
Don't you hate it when mom's are right?
To Illya Miyu is just amazing. The best person who has ever lived. She can do no wrong. Miyu is smart and athletic. Powerful in battle. Sure she can't fly but she managed to turn a negative into a positive. Well with a bit of Sapphire's help. So Illya feels...so lame next to her. Do people still say lame? However Mom was able to separate herself from the situation. Like just because someone seems awesome and untouchable doesn't mean they are. Everybooooooody hurts. Why maybe that is what Illya is good at, being friends with people. Miyu the shy one needs Illya to pull her out of her shell. That is where Illya is important. Captain Planet needs HEART to be formed folks.
 photo illyaepisode912_zpsa1603150.jpg
Because she almost HURT you right?
I am sorta not buying the reason Mom and Miyu came up with though to why Miyu decide to go with alone. Because it really looks like Miyu was scared of Illya's uncontrollable powers. Maybe I think that because that should be the reason. Because it's a damn good reason!! Illya did almost blow them up. So with Mom she was like...maybe Miyu wants to take on this burden for you. With Miyu it was I want to protect the one who calls me friend. Maybe this was the fluffy dose of magical girl sparkles. Seems like a stretch to me and the Japanese do do things in a roundabout way to avoid conflict. I get what Miyu was doing though. I push you away Illya to protect you!!! Only I think she had the right to be angry.
 photo illyaepisode915_zpsa89cad16.jpg
I believe in the heart of the cards...I mean myself.
In any event Mom's speech was enough for Illya. That and I think Illya had guilt gut. Like I left all this hard fighting stuff to Miyu, I am a bad person. But yes it is time to dramatically run off to find Miyu. Good thing at the beginning of this mess all the girls were shown where all the cards were. Although it would have made just as much sense if Luvia and Rin at this time made it back to Illya to get more help. It also would have made just as much sense if Illya hadn't done any dramatic running and flown the whole way. But I guess we need our dramatics.
 photo illyaepisode97_zps610691e8.jpg
Is it already ass kicking time?!
Somewhere else, also bad the other girls were getting ready to fight the last card. It's the FINALLLLLL COUNTDOWN!!! have you noticed each boss is the toughest boss ever fought EVER?! I mean I guess it makes sense that the Heroic Cards were powerful. Except Assassin who is destined to suck no matter what. But yeah Luvia and Rin advocating running each time. Except when Miyu took out Rider in one hit. But Rin had been telling Illya to run at that time too. BUT...just kidding. Perhaps that is a play on the genre, that most magical girls fight until the bitter end? These girls were like um no, too hard bye!
 photo illyaepisode98_zpsa2e47d34.jpg
Finally his time to shine!
It makes sense that Berserker was saved until last. Since he was Illya's servant. He really wasn't a pushover though. Like look at my huge/gross muscles. Your attacks bounce off me and stick to you. And even if you do manage to kill me I will just lava myself back to life. Because these girls never learn. Victory dance after the card is thrown on the ground.
 photo illyaepisode910_zps4f91fbca.jpg
I can do this for hours ladies.
It seems Berserker was much strong than I remember. Or maybe I am remembering wrong since Archer was taken out with Berserker in Fate/Stay. Still he was a bad ass. It did look like lava to me people. Lava all over his body powering him up, back to life. Miyu was doing...well as well as she could. I personally thought Saber's battle was more intense. Miyu should have gotten in a few more kills before being splatted and down for the count.
 photo illyaepisode911_zps106029aa.jpg
That is their favorite thing to say weee!
Rin and Luvia had enough sense to run away. You know, live to fight another day. However there is only so much they can do with the escaping. If the spell maker decides to stay and fight, locking you out well you are screwed. I do think they should have fetched Illya. In any event Miyu at least had a reason and plan. Keep Illya the innocent from getting dragged into fighting again. Because Miyu was just pretending to be mad last time, to protect Illya. Or you know...she had a legit reason to be mad, either way.
 photo illyaepisode914_zps65a93ca3.jpg
She held her own...for a few minutes.
Part of me was a little bummed Illya wasn't going to be Saber. But I guess it makes sense this way. Illya is technically wearing her brother and Miyu is wearing the “girlfriend”/ I guess Miyu needed to look amazing too. I just thought maybe she get a few more blows on Berserker before being down for the count again. But Berserker was learning all her moves and being amazing Saber requires a lot of magic.
 photo illyaepisode916_zps99cde144.jpg
My best friend ever!
In the end it doesn't matter because Illya arrived on the scene to save the day. Like I know you were just harsh on me to protect me and that makes me want to cry friendship tears. But now I am going to risk it all for you because you are worth friendship tears. It goes both ways! Friendship is indeed magical. Up next...final episode!!!

Fate/kaleid liner Prisma Illya episode 8

Hello there my lovely readers. How are you this fine Sunday? I would be doing better if the space key on my board worked. Other than that...I was taking it easy today. I did a lot yesterday so I was like take a break today and breath. Yay for days off.
 photo illyaepisode86_zps30c8d5ab.jpg
Look at us...so close but so far away.
But to catch up on anime posts I need to be posting everyday! Must catch up. So here is an anime post for ya'll. Up now is Fate/kaleid liner Prisma Illya episode 8. Spoilers for the longest goodbye ever?
 photo illyaepisode811_zps5391c9c9.jpg
Behold Illya's friends!
Episode Summary: Illya is up and getting ready for school. She is clearly down about what transpired between her and Miyu. Sella assumes Illya is still feeling under the weather and implores Illya to stay home from school again. Illya declines and makes her way to school. Once there she is greeted by most of her friends that I haven't learned their names because do they really matter? Well apparently they do and they are concerned that Illya isn't acting like herself. The friends greet Miyu when she walks in. Miyu walks passed Illya and says not word. The last friend, the annoying friend, arrives and totally acts like a crackhead, making the mood worse than it already was. Illya tries to escape the awkwardness by pretending like she has to do her homework. Her friends talk to themselves about what could have gone wrong, that Miyu was finally opening up to them. Illya knows she is what went wrong. She done went and pushed Miyu over the edge. Illya feels sad to be kicked out of the magical girl gig as she liked Miyu. However a bigger part of her is happy that she doesn't have to put her life in danger anymore. Well maybe not happy. More like relieved. But that makes her feel guilty too. Her teacher hopes in acting like the annoying friend, declaring it art day. The class would break up into groups to draw pictures and make a story. This is clearly way too hard for some people. The annoying friend wants to do a classic Japanese story but keeps adding in extra crap to make it....special. At one point there was Juliet from Romeo and Juliet. The taller friend is like so writing a story based on annoying one's drawings. So she elects Illya to write the story as it seems like the hardest task. When Illya flails around like a crazy person tall friend (because at this point names would be useless yes) says Miyu will help Illya. Miyu is like um I don't want to be in your group, I am doing this all alone. All of the friends are shocked as this task seems impossible to do alone. Illya is like no Miyu is amazing and can do anything. Not like me. POOR ME!!! It is finally decided that the entire group will help Illya but this project might be beyond saving.
 photo illyaepisode813_zpsb145d5aa.jpg
Someone has anger issues.
Outside Sapphire and Ruby are talking about what they should do about the magical girl situation. Ruby wants to stick by Illya and support her sad little self. After all she never really had a reason to be a magical girl. Sapphire gets quiet, as she knows why Miyu did this. Because when Sapphire left Luvia it must have found random genius homeless Miyu. Miyu confronted Luvia agreed to catch the cards for her in return...for everything else in life. Illya eventually walks her sad self home and Sella greets her. Illya is still acting sad which makes Sella worry more. Sella goes to talk to Leysritt about the situation. Leysritt tells Sella she worried too much and Sella is like at least I work! You are going to get fat being so lazy. Leysritt is like all fat goes into my boobies, unlike you. Sella gets pissed and Shirou walks in. He has bought a lot of food to make a special dinner for Illya. He misunderstands the boobie talk which...is scaring me for life no matter what. Ruby is listening to all this fighting and says well I guess this is what a normal household is like. Illya agrees but Ruby says Illya needs to talk to Rin about her plans for the future. So off Illya goes to give her letter of resignation. Rin accepts it without being angry at all. Instead she goes on for about 398322 minutes about how this is a good thing, that Illya was never meant to be a magical girl anyway and that she can go on with her peaceful life. Ruby says she will not go back to Rin, that Illya is her chosen one. Rin is a little upset but there is only one card left. Rin asks if Miyu is okay with all of this. Miyu appears and nods, saying she will get the last card alone. Both girls leave Illya looking kinda sad. Ruby repeats he will stay by Illya's side, because one day she might need some magic. At the end of the episode Luvia and Rin have tracked down the last card and Miyu is ready to take it down. THE END!!!

Hope Sella doesn't start worrying about me next.
How does the day fly by so fast? I feel as if I am still not used to this new work schedule. Now every day I have off at work I feel the need to cram as much into as possible. Yet a nap just sounded so wonderful today. Like I could do this and that but napping on the husband who was playing a video game on the big TV was just too tempting. I think I need to stop and smell the roses sometimes. Or you know..actually go with the flow like I keep saying I am going to try and do.
 photo illyaepisode812_zpsa02916b6.jpg
Just saving the world, nothing too big.
Anime time though. Sella is slightly overprotective. I mean.....she is right. She is just guessing but technically she is right and Illya is going through a lot. More than she knows. And she was right to worry that stress might have been causing her fever. That and the mana you know. However since Sella can't see all this going on she really is overreacting. Although Illya is a little young to be going through that phase of her life. Where everything should be secretive and what not.
 photo illyaepisode84_zps6de27a23.jpg
Remember us? Your friends?
I am such a bad blogger. I can't remember one of Illya's friends names. They have been so minor to the plot. I am used to that though. Main character has a friend or group of friends that are their main source of fun until the serious event happens and they are cast aside as they are not apart of that magical experience. Yet with these girls...just not much to remember. Besides the annoying one. I suck. Although instead of calling the tall girl....tall girl I should have called her yaoi girl right? Just use the stereotypes. Yaoi girl, annoying girl, quiet girl, and....what was special about the pink hair girl?
 photo illyaepisode83_zps3e930ee6.jpg
Don't make eye contact with the sad panda.
Even if the girls don't seem very important to me they are important to Illya. And must be good friends if they care enough about Illya to forget about that naked moment on top of Miyu. Enough to act concerned but not enough to push the issue. There are cultural differences, between how people act in public in Japan and here in the United States. So it looks like it is hard for people to open up in Japan, that they have to put on a fake face no matter what. So asking Illya what is wrong and getting a sad response like that....it seemed that is all the girls could do. Or maybe I am just annoying and I would keep asking and asking until the person told me the truth.
 photo illyaepisode87_zps8dc21951.jpg
Who put you in charge?!
The teacher and the annoying girl must share a brain. Like okay guys way to read the mood. TIME FOR FUN OR ELSE! Annoying girl wanted to do a specific story but given the reactions of all the other girls...she was super off. Way off. Like it would be like telling the story of Abraham Lincoln and adding vampires. Now that would be stupid right? Also it appears that annoying girl might have the artists talents of another girl in a recent anime. YuruYuri anyone? So yeah...that was one hot mess and it looks like the other girls let her railroad the project.

Why would I want to work with you crazies?
Writing a story is hard folks. I mean yes the source material was....awful. But Illya gave up the second she was given the task. She really has no confidence in herself. Perhaps it was always Yaoi Girl's plan..no she was just being lazy. But I am sure part of her wanted to give Miyu and Illya a chance to work together and mend their differences. But Miyu is like um no I do what I want. I can do ANYTHING alone. At this task...I can believe it. Hello did you see those math problems? But I understood the real meaning of what was going on. It was not lost upon me.
 photo illyaepisode810_zpsf1c7ad76.jpg
So this just happened?!
What IS lost upon me is...Miyu herself. Or her and Luvia. I thought that long ago Miyu was rescued by Luvia and when Sapphire left Luvia Miyu the servant took on that role. Like the Bible without the forced “marriages” to produce kids. But no folks. This is really a show about new friendships. Really new friendships. I guess Miyu was living on the streets when she saw the wand and was like well I can get a better life this way. So she can put herself on the line because she has nothing to lose. She has to work for this opportunity. She has nothing whereas Illya seems to have everything. So...I guess the real question is how did down and out girl become the smartest girl in the world? Can I get a back story here please?

What the hell is this!?
No instead we got insanity. Sella is still worried about Illya. Leysritt is the laziest maid ever. One might argue that a house of that size doesn't really require two maids but you know.....Sella called Leysritt lazy but might have crossed the line with the fat comment which made Leysritt talk about Sella's lack of boobies. This all lead to Shirou talking about Illya's boobies growing which made me want to stab my eyes out. Illya isn't done growing yet so lets not worry? How about she hasn't started growing yet and why would you care how big her boobies are!??!?! MY EYES! She is in 5th grade!!!! Also it is not lost on me that there are two maids in this house and Shirou is going to make dinner. Guess it teaches kids responsibility but still.

Don't worry, be happy Illya!
Illya listens to all this chaos downstairs. So does Ruby. And this doesn't make Illya happy, even when Ruby points out that it should be great news. Hear that arguing? That is the sound of a normal life. Embrace your normal life!!! No more fights or being in danger. And part of Illya is happy. But a bigger part of her wants to be friends with Miyu. That she wanted to be be apart of something bigger than herself. She feels guilty she can't help Miyu anymore. I felt as if this episode could have been stronger had there been more focus on Illya not being in control of herself. Like there is a reason this happened. Like maybe Miyu walking with a limp or having bandaids on her face. Something you know?
 photo illyaepisode816_zpsc4098b7f.jpg
Why so formal?
That did not happen though. Instead Illya lost her little mind and actually gave Rin a real resignation paper. Oh Illya. And I thought Rin was going to have a flash of disappointment on her face. Instead I was pleasantly surprised at how Rin handled the situation. Very maturely. Or maybe she should have handled it better? Like the world is in danger and we really need your help to save it. Maybe she should have told Miyu to suck it up and helped Illya channel her power better? Great now I am confused.

Glad you see that now.
Still Rin was not made at Illya. She saw the situation for what it was. Illya is a scared kid who really didn't know what she was getting into. Thought this was going to be all fun and amazing. Like a TV show. She is not to blame for being scared of her powers and awful cards. She should have been mad at Ruby for not changing sides as HELLO Ruby will have to return to her and the world IS in danger. But Rin didn't yell at Illya and neither did Miyu.
 photo illyaepisode8_zpsf331c191.jpg
I am doing this to protect you Illya. And you know...the world.
So I guess that is where the episode ended. With Illya being free at last and Miyu going it alone with the other two girls. I am guessing that Ruby is sticking around in case Illya and her pure heart has...well a change of heart. Be that last minute hero. Have your moment of pout because girl you will save us all. Until next time!

Fate/kaleid liner Prisma Illya episode 7

 photo illyaepisode77_zps4a10044e.jpg
My what a great big perv you are....
YAWN! It is time for bed folks. Off to the warm blanket land of sleep after I get this posted. Hopefully two more posts will come tomorrow. For now I leave you with sweet dreams of Fate/kaleid liner Prisma Illya episode 7. Spoilers for Illya being naked and shunned in the same episode.
 photo illyaepisode7_zps76b645fb.jpg
Clearly you need chicken soup for the magical girl soul.
Episode Summary: Illya's maid Stella has declared Illya slightly, sorta sick and orders her to stay in bed. Illya complains but complies. She grows bored due to her Japanese work ethic and Ruby has a hard time keeping her entertained. Illya rolls around for a little while but decides to think about the recent battles. She is under the impression Miyu beat Saber and is all sad face. Ruby insists Illya is the better magical girl which worries Illya based on the criteria Ruby uses. Illya starts thinking about how amazing Miyu is when Ruby is like I can turn into a phone and call Sapphire. So she does which is super amazing to Illya or she thinks it is super dumb because phones exist. Miyu has also stayed inside today as Luvia was worried about her. The conversation gets awkward so Ruby sets up video chat. Turns out Miyu is wearing a maid outfit and Illya is a crazy person. She demands Miyu come over right now wearing said outfit and practically molests the girl when she walks in. Ruby is like well friendship is magical while Miyu almost dies. Illya pulls herself together and Stella serves them snacks. Miyu explains that this isn't a cosplay outfit, that she is Luvia's maid. She had no where else to go and Luvia took her in. Illya feels bad and wants to ask about the parents but Ruby tells her to refrain. During this time Illya talks about how awesome Miyu is for defeating Saber. Sapphire takes Ruby outside and plugs up, showing Ruby how Illya is the one who kicked ass. The two wants wonder if that is how the cards used to be...used? Illya tries being normal for 5 more seconds but the costume takes hold of her again. She basically takes off all her clothes and jumps on Miyu, demanding she give her a sponge bath.

No mommas?!
At this moment Illya's friends from school walk in and declare everything insane. I assume the girls visit with the not really sick Illya. They go to leave and see Stella is wearing a weird ass outfit now. Illya questions it and Stella says she must be a proud maid as well. Illya tries not to be scarred for life. She thinks happily to herself that she and Miyu are friends forever. That night all the girls go out hunting for another card. They can't find the baddie and Illya also notes the arena seems smaller . Luvia is like this is because we are running out of cards. They walk on and Illya thinks she hears something. She is nicked by a knife on her neck. Everyone starts being attacked so the girls circle up. It is Assassin, made up of about 50 people. The girls realize they are screwed and make a plan to escape. Illya is poisoned and is so confused she has trouble expressing her situation. She tries running but Rin doesn't realize why Illya is being so slow and isn't attacking. Illya finally collapses a good distance from the others. All the Assassins throw their weapons at Illya and the other girls RUN to Illya, with no magic spell launched. Illya realizes she is screwed and starts to panic. That she doesn't want to die, that she doesn't want anyone to die for her, that she doesn't like this place. Suddenly she powers up and....almost destroys everything. Miyu sets up a barrier in time to protect herself, Rin, and Luvia. They are still hurt but alive. All the Assassins are dead and Illya is like X___x. Apparently she unleashed all her mana. Miyu clenches her fists and tells Illya is a liability and no one would be in danger if it wasn't for her. Miyu says she will never fight with Illya again. Illya breaks down into tears and flies off. THE END!

Illya looks slightly delicious...
Best friends to giant misunderstanding at the end of the same episode? Say it ain't so!!! Such a soap opera. Well without all the baby mommas. :( Miss As The World Turns. Rest in peace story.
 photo illyaepisode73_zpse94216d0.jpg
Work gives my life meaning?! X___X
I think that Illya should have been actually sick. Or tired. She did just kick Saber's ass. With a method that startled Sapphire. So maybe Illya should be sick in bed. Instead Stella was super overprotective and Illya was bored. Um that is what gameboys are for. Or the TV. If you have to stay in bed but you have already slept enough.....time for fun!!! I still need to finish Pokemon Black and White.
 photo illyaepisode710_zpsbd6e4e97.jpg
Just a tiny fact I forgot to mention near wand sister.
After Illya got over her under productive ways it was time to think about Miyu. XO Why is she so awesome indeed!!! Um so why aren't they telling Illya she beat the amazing Saber? Wouldn't that give her some self confidence? Thus makes her a better magical girl? Maybe Sapphire was really worried about what happened. Ruby thought it was off too, once she was done being a pervert. Not sure why Miyu didn't say anything. Maybe she thinks it will scare Illya? Who knows.
 photo illyaepisode76_zps452a9685.jpg
So shocking!
What I do know is Ruby and Sapphire can turn into anything. Perverts included. They can be computers sharing information, phones, video chatters. Everything. Yet most of the time they are useless. Not a typical....weapon. Then again the weapons and mascots are usually two separate things....details details. Come bring Miyu and Illya together as they do not bicker like Rin and Luvia.
 photo illyaepisode78_zps0a5e56bb.jpg
Now she actually looks sick!
Also what I know is Illya is a freak. Grand A crazy person. I am not sure if the fact that she knows she turned into a crazy person makes her crazier or not. But the second the screen lit up with Miyu's maid outfit...it was on like Crazy Kong. I am taking naked on. Literally. Drooling ever. I am surprised ew didn't get any nosebleeds up in this place. I guess it just seemed super weird because it came out of nowhere. Who knew? Crazy Illya. Using all that mana gave her the insanes. Run Miyu run!
 photo illyaepisode711_zps30713c11.jpg
In between these moments there was bonding I promise.
In between Illya strippin and Illya's friends being scarred for life the girls really bonded. Because they have known each other for like a week. And Miyu is done hating her. Or pretending to hate her. No no, in Japan when someone gives you permission to call them their first name it is serious. Like BFF bracelets or wedding ring serious. Big deal here folks. So many blushy faces. Unlike Rin and Luvia. Just foreshadowing what was to come at the end of the episode.
 photo illyaepisode712_zps4b15f089.jpg
Yes. There are tons of places like this is in the world. DUH!
Since this show has an expiration date of 2 weeks no one gets rest. Or the real knowledge that Illya may be awesome. Instead it's time for Shrek and Donkey to go on another whirlwind adventure. Or the girls to go to the Mirror World. Nothing can ever come from “it's too quiet” or “where are the baddies”. Well things can come from it...just not anything good. Also they really didn't do a good job showing that the Mirror World was smaller. I thought Rider had a smaller area. In any event, got to collect them cardz.
 photo illyaepisode713_zps817b4cfd.jpg
Actually she wasn't fine at all....
When Illya was slightly stabbed was it not obvious to anyone else she was poisoned? Because little hommie was not looking good. Was that just done for the audience's sake? She had lines under her eyes and just looked out of it. Obviously Assassin sucks but he wouldn't be THAT easy to beat. Something had to be up. Just don't keep yelling for Illya to hurry. X____X
 photo illyaepisode715_zpsf4900dff.jpg
Um where is the flying?
When Illya was semi down for the count...I thought it was special that everyone RAN to Illya. Miyu can walk on mana. Jump her out of there. Rin and Luvia can use magic. I would chalk this up to everything being in slow mo but then again Miyu could have appeared moving slowly in the air. Just specialness.
 photo illyaepisode714_zps4293c2e1.jpg
Poor almost dead Illya.
While Illya was about to bite the dust she had time to think about how sucky this situation was/is. Like I am supposed to be a normal school girl, walking with my brother after class, and going to the stores with my friends on the weekend. This was supposed to be a fun adventure, making friends and saving the world. We aren't supposed to die. This isn't how things should end. All of this is happening so slow but in reality I am sure these thoughts were racing through her mind. She doesn't want to die, she shouldn't be here. I don't want to die.
 photo illyaepisode716_zpse5ea9a8f.jpg
Um...did I do that?
And then Illya made the entire area exploded. Almost exploded her teammates as well. How did this happen folks? Last time Illya went insane with power...because she had the card. Now Illya can be all explodey and awesome on her own? Confused folks confused. Is there going to be an explanation about all this madness or is it going to be summoned up with Illya is just awesome. Her pure heart will make anything possible. If Illya wants it to happen it will happen. Although Assassin is usually pretty weak. She probably didn't need to go all out like that. You know, because she had control over it....
 photo illyaepisode717_zpsb6a19dd7.jpg
So time to bounce.
The episode ends with Miyu being pissed. Or hurt. Probably both. Surprised that Illya is so much stronger than her. Upset that Illya would.....attack like that without thinking of others. Scared at the realization that Illya didn't do this on purpose. Sad because now Miyu feels guilty about pushing Illya away for various reasons. Being a girl is hard without having to worry about this stuff! Miyu had her reasons for saying what she did. But to Illya who almost just DIED and is sad about almost hurting/killing her friends....she probably feels as if she needed support in this moment and didn't get any. So fly away Illya, fly away. Everything has sorta hit the fan. As much as the fan can be hit in this series anyway.
