Macademy Wasshoi! #07 — Behold Metallis’ Majesty!

November 17th, 2008

 

BEHOLD IT, I SAY.

Impressions:

Another pretty fun episode, although I thought that the ending was pretty predictible since Eneus mysteriously vanished through the entire race and you can’t change the status quo halfway into a series. I’m also not a huge fan of what appear to be the big bads of the series (not like they’re particularly big or bad), the devil Agrian and the angel Gabrian. I’m open to corrections on either of those names. They understand the whole moe fetishism thing, they’re just completely blasé (good word) about it. The OP also changed slightly to fill them in as the black silhouettes towards the end. There were some good cheap laughs early on with Professor Franklanb Stein being totally unable to see Takuto until the latter put on his cat ears along with his general obsession with moe crap. Eitarou also had a decent joke when Takuto and Falce went to check in with him and he seemed to be hard at work. Instead, he was playing some MMO.

The uniform race was all decent, though I think that Magikano did it quite a bit better. Metallis’ liquid metal suit was certainly… something else. It was bad enough that it looked like he was stuffing his crotch, but George’s version was a whole ‘nother story. It’s funny how Metallis’ life has turned around since the last episode… now George is feeling neglected and trying to win him back. The Hard Gay angel also made his ‘triumphant’ return, though he didn’t really do anything but pose, which I think I’m actually thankful for. I am a little disappointed that there wasn’t more Sync and Miyabi, but hey… can’t have it all. I’m just sad that the guy in the top hat and monocle didn’t win. Now that’s an awesome school uniform.

Brief Summary:

The devil Agrian and the angel Gabrian go shopping for otaku goods with Miyabi and Sync it tow. Back at the Academy, everybody’s in a general furor over… something. Takuto et all go to see Stein where they find him working on designing a new school uniform. Apparently there’s a competition coming up and whatever the person who wins the race is wearing will become the new uniform. He manages to convince Tanarot into being his model. Takuto GET de aru! Elsewhere, Metallis talks Suzuka into being a model for his uniform, which has a power suppressor built in so that she doesn’t need to use the sealing ribbon anymore and can stay as Suzuka. Takuto and Falce check in with Eitarou, but he seemingly doesn’t care about anything. Actually, he’s just wrapped up in an MMO.

Agrian and Gabrian arrive on the day of the race with their auras visibly clashing throughout the school, but they’re just there to observe… one student in particular. Everybody gets ready for the race with Trincia doing the announcing. Miyabi and Sync are being forced to participate, but they’re immediately stampeded right out of the gate. The race runs through various portals with hazards, and it’s totally no holds barred. Tanarot’s in cat ears and short shorts while Suzuka is in… a skintight suit of liquid metal. Tanarot gets punched for making fun of her, but they’re then confronted by the mecha girl (whose name I forget) in her ‘uniform’ which is a giant mecha. Tanarot knocks her over without even breaking stride and she blows herself up, along with a number of other students. Sagami comes by to cheer her up, but his face then splits open and tentacles pop out to… alter her.

The race continues. Lots of explosions and throwing Suzuka through mine fields and Elephant Mazingers and such. They near the end, where Tanarot turns around to confront Suzuka. Suzuka tries the liquid punch again, but Tanarot starts knocking it away and dispersing Suzuka’s suit. With the sealing ability of the suit gone, Suzuka absorbs everybody’s power and explodes in a massive magical overload. Eitarou and all the guys in the stands give the scene of disheveled women a huge thumbs up. Out of the chaos comes Eneus. She stand before the finish line and then starts stripping. She crosses the finish line in the normal school uniform. Eitarou goes nuts at her, but she just cursies to the crowd. Agrian and Gabrian leave, discussing Tanarot and her master as they go.

    “the devil Agrian and the angel Gabrian”
    The correct spelling for them are Agaliarept and Gabriel

  • Aroduc says:

    Oi. Let’s stick with Ag and Gab. ^^

  • Sterling01 says:

    Just wait until the really really long names show up

  • Chen says:

    SUBS WHERE?!

    Seriously.

  • Legacy says:

    Macademi is certainly… unique. The censorship is kind of creepy at points… certainly funny, and still charming, unlike Kemeko.

    Also, Neko-Tanarotte is adorable.

  • Man, that costume that Suzuka is wearing sure is ecchi. Yikes! It’s good to see the mini-En’s again; I hope they’re regular in the series from now on.

    Who’s the girl with the mecha? She shows up in the OP, but I haven’t seen any indication of who she is.

  • Aroduc says:

    She’s Sagami’s underling and a mecha freak. She was in episode 5 too for a little bit, though I’ve forgotten her name.

  • GDLC says:

    Her name is Mikariya Haruka FYI
