Vampire Knight - 11,

Vampire Knight is getting more interesting now, even with all the angst that is still present (Zero). This episode is pretty good, but it lacks lolis. Not that I’m complaining by the way (LIES) ^^. But still a good episode.

Hearing Miyano Mamoru voicing both Zero and Ichiru is..weird. I get confused easily since I’m already used to hearing his voice, no matter which voice he uses. Thanks to the mouth movement, I’m not really that confused anymore. But I prefer if they use a different seiyuu for Ichiru. By the way, Miyano Mamoru is one of the best males seiyuus out there! (Ouran and Death Note FTW!).

Speaking of Ichiru, he sure is different from the one we saw in Zero’s flashbacks. Changing from a brother-lover yaoi to a brother-hater in just one night. That Shizuka girl must have done something to him (obviously). But I don’t think words are enough to convince Ichiru, so there must be something else that happened…

This episode showed the return of Yugari-sensei after his absence last episode. I’m quite surprised that he protected Ichiru since he is bad and all (he tried to kill Zero but protect Ichiru, talk about being picky). But he had no choice at that time, maybe his body moved on his own and he had no time to think about what will happen later (yea, it happens in real life too).

Zero is really desperate now huh.. Sucking Yuuki’s blood without hesitating. That is BAD. Maybe he knows that he is going to die or becomes a Level-E (whichever is first) and he wanted to suck Yuuki’s blood for the last time. Or maybe the blood supplies him energy/power to fight with Shizuka, as if he can defeat her. Just some of my dumb/fun speculations. Obviously he did it for pure pleasure.

Yuuki looked cute in a dress. Too bad I can’t take her since she is Kaname’s girl now. Zero being an emo that he is, didn’t ask her to dance with him even though her answer will be ‘yes’. Teen angst at it’s best, even a dance can’t stop them from being emo. More surprising, only 1 girl asked Zero to dance with her, despite Zero having good looks and all. And she broke her heart, that’s just cruel, poor girl. If I was him, I would have answered “I’m sorry, I’m busy now, but ‘thanks for asking’ (important part)” and then smiles.^^

Also, how did Aidou and Kain know ‘that’ place, and why did they go there now. It’s good to see Hiou Shizuka is still alive though. Yes, it’s good because this means that there will be possibilities of awesome fights happening. Speaking of fights, where is the action in this anime anyway..

Yuuki has a huge decision to make. Choosing between Zero or Kaname. Choosing Zero means Yuuki has to kill Kaname. I don’t think that’s possible, but why did Maria ordered her to do that? Also, does this mean that Maria can’t defeat Kaname, or not in the current body of hers to be specific. Choosing Kaname means doing nothing. The latter one is obviously the easiest. I don’t know who I should choose if I was in Yuuki’s position because both of them are not worth saving, it’s just a matter of choosing which one is worse. Ok, just kidding. In Yuuki’s eyes, both of them are very important to her. So which one will she choose? And which one will you choose? Manga readers already know the answers of course, spoilers are not needed.^^

Can’t wait till next episode.

Side Note: Anime Banzai! is officially version 4 with a nice new theme and some new features. Also, Happy Birthday to oOgA!
