Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei: the lost chapters
2-H enters the classroom, only to see that the whole place is lit by candles- Sensei is in the shadows.
Chiri: Sensei, what’s going on?
Chiri switches the light on, causing Sensei to rise up and scream.
Sensei: You mustn’t!
Maria: Sensei’s a vampire!
(Meru: Idiot.)
Sensei: Turn that light off! Class, today we must spend the entire day without relying on electricity once! Therefore, IT class is cancelled- we’ll watch an educational movie instead!
Chiri: But to watch the movie we’ll need a TV and DVD player.
Sensei: Zetsubou shita! The culture that relies so much on electricity has left me in despair!
- Can’t use TV, games consoles or computers, among other things.
- Even battery-powered laptops, mobiles and handheld gaming devices will need recharging.
- Forgotten how to cook without oven, hob and microwave.
- Water can only be boiled over a fire.
- DVDs trapped in the player until power returns.
- No lighting at night.
Amatsuki 8
“I may be huge, but this DOG will be Pleasurable.”
Hmm, does that still work these days?
“On top, maybe, but I won’t be your bitch.”
“I desire it that much!”
Amatsuki 9
Toki catches the eye of a potential HARD GAY partner.
“…already skilled in the ways of HARD GAY?”
“Why, when I was young, I barely knew of such things! How times change…”
“It’s just that you’re so damned good-looking!”
“Strip naked and prepared to be spanked!”
“Are you off to the blue light district again?”
“How many times do I have to tell you not to sleep around?”
They aren’t? My education has been sorely lacking.
The most common problem of FOX is highlighted.
Dragons’ Den
Welcome to our regular feature based on the TV program of the same name, in which anime characters try to market their great idea to five fat cats of anime! President Aria made his fortune in the gondola industry of Neo Venezia, and is now CEO of a well-known company. Mikoto started her business in the capital of Wind Bloom, and is now a trusted advisor to the queen, with business partners scattered across the world. The Admiral’s first business venture was to invest in a Chinese restaurant, but a meteor threat to Earth saw her buy shares in ground and space based defence technology, which she currently administers with her protégé “The General” (aka Shogun). Mr Tibbs started his career as a tea cat for the bank, but his sound grasp of finance saw him rise up the ranks until he became one of their most prominent managers. Finally, The Cardinal is the world’s most powerful fat cat, with a wide range of business interests that ensure that he has a paw in every pie (often literally, depending on his appetite). These five cats represent some heavyweight investment clout in every sense of the word, but is any deal attractive enough to get them to roll off their backsides and shake paws with a budding entrepreneur?
This week in the Den we have Haru and Kurama, who are here to pitch a revolutionary new form of the internet known as “The Metal”. Will the Dragons jump at the chance to be at the forefront of this technological revolution?
Kurama: Hello everyone, I’m Kurama, this is Haru, and we’re here today to pitch for investment in a brand new technological development called the Meta-Real, or Metal for short. Basically, what it allows you to do is dive into a virtual reality tailored to your choice.
Cardinal: Been there, done that.
Kurama: Ah, but this is different. Allow me to play a short video.
Kurama shows a video of the ocean-like nature of the Metal.
Aria: Punyu? [Why does it look like an ocean?]
Kurama: Well, uh, no one knows, really. But dogs have their own Metal, so presumably fat cats could too.
Mikoto: We are not fat!
Admiral: I have to admit that swimming around in a virtual ocean seems a bit too much like hard work to me- I’m out.
Kurama: But the possibilities are endless, like wish fulfilment, virtual sex and er, multiple orgasms.
Aria: Punyu! [There’s no way I can attach my name to such a seedy practice- I’m out.]
Mr Tibbs: Tell me, what sort of equipment do you need to connect to the Metal?
Kurama: Well, like Haru here, you can get yourself a cyberbrain- or you can use a special diving bell type apparatus.
Mr Tibbs: Could you tell me a little more about these cyberbrains? Would they let me log onto the bank directly?
Kurama: Yes, but you’d run the risk of having your brain hacked or your spare CPU cycles put to use by unscrupulous companies.
Mr Tibbs: Well, I have to admit that I’m unwilling to invest until those security risks are worked out, so I’m out.
Cardinal: I must admit that while I’m interested in virtual realities in general, this one does seem a little convoluted for my tastes. I understand that you were trying to be different, but I think it’s backfired- when I go online I want to relax, not literally go diving.
It seems as if the Metal isn’t a big hit in the Den- the Dragons have seen better virtual realities already. Kurama and Haru will have to leave emptyhanded.
Anime Big Brother
Maki settles into his room in the Big Brother house.
Aoki: Hey, Maki, did you bring your women’s clothes? I was hoping we could have a little dress up session later.
Maki: I don’t know what you’re talking about.
Aoki: Yes you do, don’t you remember?
Maki: Shut up, Aoki!
Meanwhile, in the living room…
Allison: I love you, Wil!
Wil: Eh? Oh, that’s nice. Do you like my sweater?
Kuu-chan: Is dinner ready yet? I’m starving.
Lawrence: I’ll sell you these apples for three Thoreni silver coins.
Horo: Get away from those apples! They’re mine!
Doumeki: Watanuki, everyone’s getting hungry.
Watanuki: And I suppose you’re going to say it’s my turn to cook again? Honestly, I don’t know why I put up with this.
Doumeki: Don’t forget your apron.
Watanuki: Thanks- hey, wait a minute!
