    • Banzai Beat forums going away

      I want to thank everyone for making the forums fun. But due to spammers I just don't want to deal with it. They make hundreds of accounts and spam the living hell out of the forums.

      so on that note I'm taking them offline due to very little use and I'm not watching my bandwidth bill be sucked up my spammers.

      Thanks again and look forward to a new episode in the coming days.

    Shigofumi 11 - メザメ

    Fumika awakens. Whatever happens next?

    [Summary]

    After 3 years, Fumika finally awakens from her slumber, but with her memories in a jumble. Here, Mika-chan reveals that her true purpose in becoming a postal worker is to personally deliver the gun she holds to Fumi-chan, and ask Fumi-chan to shoot her with it as her punishment.

    Naturally, Chiaki and the others will have no such thing. They arrange to have Fumi-chan moved to Natsuka’s house while Kaname throws Mika-chan off the scent by saying Mika-chan transferred hospitals.

    Meanwhile, Chiaki consults the help of water-pipe smoking law expert Risala to see if they can find a way out of Mika-chan’s situation, which is the fact that a postal worker who is supposed to be dead is alive.

    Kanaka does her best to dissolve Mika-chan’s resolution in her own death. However, after so many episodes, Kanaka has never dissuaded Mika-chan from anything. So, while Mika-chan appreciates the effort, Kanaka gets ditched anyway.

    Also, despite Natsuka and Kaname’s best attempts, Fumi-chan stumbles upon a book of Mikawa Kirameki’s works regains her memories in a particularly nasty way.

    Like two lovers drawn together by an inexplicable bond, Fumi-chan and Mika-chan somehow meet at shrine. Fumi-chan, who is still convinced that she shot Kirameki, is shocked when Mika-chan tells her otherwise. Mika-chan hands the gun over, and a shot resounds into the silence of the setting sun…

    [Overall Impressions]

    Mika-chan NOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

    Now we know why:-

    1) Mika-chan has a gun
    2) Said gun has a shigofumi stamp

    While Mika-chan may want to atone for her sins by getting Fumi-chan to shoot her, I wonder if she considered how Fumi-chan would have felt.

    After the shot, Fumika’s personality seems to have changed. She even told Nojima-san (the detective) that she wanted to press charges against her father! (not that he doesn’t deserve it)

    Is Mika-chan truly gone? Or is she still somewhere in Fumika?

    The next episode, [Shigofumi] is the final episode. This series has been great thus far and I have really enjoyed watching it. Now let’s hope it gives us great ending as well, and not some fairytale shit like H2O ~Footprints in the Sand~. I’m still reeling from the shock and too traumatised to do a review as it is.
