Zero no Tsukaima

So, uh. Siesta is FAST.

Spoiler:

I was a little disappointed, actually. Going out and doing something like that seems to be more of Kirche's type of thing, not a (perceived as) somewhat shy and reserved girl.

Saito kind of annoys me a little bit too. He doesn't really act cool enough to be getting this kind of "play." I wish he'd drop the obvious joke/insult commentary sometimes and just be a NICE GUY.

Also Tabitha

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Well, this series is based off a series of novels, so I doubt it will have an "abrupt" ending. It'll end as per the ending of a novel (or with an original ending, a la Haruhi) and there'll be plenty of source left for a second season (WE HOPE).

Episode 10:

Spoiler:

SIESTA HAET SAITO. When she was kind of trembling all over I thought she was trying not to laugh (she seems like a very easy-going personality type) but o noes, she was actually mad! Poor Saito. Of course you'll end with Louise, but don't make Siesta mad!

Louise's deredere phase was cute, anyway. Nopan! How daring ;_;

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I'm just gonna toss out that Saito and Louise kiss like TWO SECONDS INTO THE OPENING ANIMATION. If there was ever any doubt about what the final coupling was going to be, well, I thought it was pretty obvious.

PREDICTIONS FOR EPISODE 13:

Spoiler:

Since Zero no Tsukaima is based off a series of novels, I think it's fairly obvious that Saito's going to be sticking around Tristein for a while. However, I don't think it would be lame like "SAITO WE NEED YOU COME BACK FROM JAPAN" (a la the Narnia series), so I figure this time around he's going to stay there.

They'll naturally be able to reproduce enough fuel for the Zero to fly. Albion is waging war against Tristein. Tristein needs a weapon. HAY THE ZERO IS A WEAPON.

Saito will pilot the Zero against Albion, but CLIMAX! The solar eclipse will show up, but Louise will have her life threatened at the same time. Does Saito go home, or does he save Louise?

Obviously, he'll save Louise ("because I'm your familiar!") but wreck the Zero in the process, thus destroying any chance of getting back. Louise will be like "BUT SAITO" and he'll be like "nah it's cool" and they'll kiss and we'll just mope around til season 2 comes. Hooray!

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
