And this weeks Kämpfer episode is “the beach” episode! actually, it was better than most of the previous episodes, but it would be even better if the swimsuits the girls were wearing weren’t so bland and boring. But it looks as though there will actually be some plot development!
And I changed the image, I found one with pretty much the whole cast of characters excluding the Messengers.
SUMMARY
So it turns out that at the beginning of the episode Natsuru has a date Akane, right after going out with Shizuku. And at her home Akane begins to get excited and all of that crap about going out with Natsuru, while all Seppuku Kuro Usagi (her messenger) does is tease her, but she get’s angry and beats the crap out of him(based on the sounds that came from her room…).
Akane and Natsuru arrive at the water park for their date and Akane is of course happy, it also turns out they’ll be spending the night at a hotel nerby~ Unfortunately for Akane, Sakura Mikto and Shizuku arrive right beside the two. All three of them have found out that Natsuru and Akane are going out on a date from a “mysterious source” the others are going to be sleeping at the hotel with them as well. Natsuru seems bored or depressed, so Mikoto cheers him up by bringing out Sakura(…), it immediately cheers him up, but Akane gets jealous. But Sakura isn’ t interested in meeting this Natsuru she wants to see the female Natsuru(she’s really obssed with her…). Sakura then tells Natsuru the she will not be handing (female) Natsuru over to him.
The girls all come out in their(fail) bikini’s(nothing else to insert here…), Shizuku has got the best one, but it is a bit plain still…
But with Natsuru being a healthy(???) teenage boy he get’s a bit horny(look at his face it’s obvious…)when he gets a look at Sakura in her bikini. But when Sakura comes out she is still wondering where the female Natsuru is and Shizuku just tells her that Natsuru will be out soon. Natsuru asks Sakura if she’d want to go swimming with him, but she tells him that she can’t swim and asks Shizuku if she’ll teach her(what a bit*h). In order to cheer Natsuru up(and it is her date) she offers to play with Natsuru along with Mikoto. Natsuru takes a look over at Shizuku teaching Sakura to swim, but Akane is right in front of him, and as usual she get jealous.
After having Mikoto push her off the diving board at the pool Akane get’s herself back together. And then Mikoto comes out of the pool….and for about 2 minutes Mikoto talks about her oppai and Akane’s slipping out their bikini’s…. Shizuku arrives after hearing the group talk about her and begins to feel Natsuru up, taking it as a challenge, Akane also tries it out for herslef as well. Shizuku tells Natsuru to call ‘her’ over, and a group of mysterious girls walks by Sakura.
Click the image above for the full bikini version~
So after the break Natsuru comes out now in ‘her’ bikini, embarrassed.
Both Sakura(of course) and Akane are hypnotized by Natsuru-san’s “nice body”. Excited Sakura ask if Natsuru could teach her how to swim. Natsuru-shan tells Sakura that she should ask the other Natsuru to teach her how to swim, but she looks away angrily and tells her no. She simply says that there’s nothing good about him and that it’s hard to find any reason to talk to him(that was…cold…). Since Natsuru-san is Natsuru ’she’ get’s depressed that Sakura despises ‘her’ true male side and falls to the ground.
Natsuru-san begins to try and teach Sakura how to swim, Natsuru-san let’s go of Sakura for a minute and begin to drown(yeah right) and then she climbs onto Natsuru-san a holds onto her, very, very tightly. Akane, from afar, watches what Sakura is doing to Natsuru-san and get’s angry like always, and sttempts to get her woman(man) back. So Akane grabs onto Natsuru-san and pretends as though she cannot swim and asks Natsuru-san to teach her.
Shizuku comes in and takes Natsuru-san away from the two woman. Natsuru-san was sent to go shopping by Shizuku but ends up going the wrong way into the area for the staff members of the park. She runs into another girl and asks for directions, but the girl shows Natsuru-san her bracelet and it turns out that she’s a white Kämpfer. She then shoots out a blue beam of something(?) at Natsuru-san. Another Kämpfer this time with a sword. And another white Kämpfer also comes from behind and points a gun right at Natsuru-san’s head.
It turns out that the Kämpfer with the green hair knows of Natsuru-san’s real identity. The Kampfer with the blonde hair’s name is Sayaka Nakao, the one wit the blue-like hair is Ryouka Yamakawa, and the green haired one is Hitomi Minagawa. The girls reveal that the moderators are the ones who set this up. Akane comes to the rescue(once again…) and saves Natsuru, and when the two meet they have one of their little “episodes”. Hitomi realizes that her group has the upper hand since it’s only two against one, but Shizuku arrives.
Shizuku tells them that they knew the group would show up if they sent one person out. Tired of seeing Natsuru and Akane argue, Hitomi and the others leave.
Later Natsuru is back to his normal male self and Akane asks about Sakura and the others.Natsuru told Sakura that Natsuru-san left, she started to cry, and then Natsuru told her that Natsuru-san would be back for the fireworks. Akane once again get jealous.
The little stuff-ed animal Kämpfer messengers arrive wet and soggy after taking a bath at the hot springs. The little guys ask Natsuru if he can dry them off,so he goes into the bathroom and squeezes the water out of each and every one of them, each of them commentingon how cruel Natsuru is for doing that. They are later hung in order to dry off.
Natsuru asks the Messengers if they can tell him about the white Kämpfer but Sakura is going to be arriving soon, so he says that all they can really do is sleep, and the phone rings. Sakura(or someone) was on the phone and told Natsuru that they’ll be waiting in another room.
apparently Akane thought Natsuru meant “that kind of sleep”
Everyone later meets up in a different room. With the other talking all Sakura can ask is, “when is the other Natsuru going to get here?” …
With Shizuku being the daring woman that she is, she takes a cup of soda and lick the sides of the cup and hands over to Natsuru to drink (an indirect kiss?), and everyone get’s excited over her bold move. Sakura says that there is something going on between the two of them, but Natsuru denies it, and Akane points out that they even went out on a date before, which Natsuru denies as well. But Shizuku takes out a present Natsuru gave to her on their date, and says that she’s been taking care of it. Sakura then asks Shizuku if her and Natsuru have ever kissed. She says yes. After hearing more about Natsuru and Shizuku’s relationshinship, Mikoto gets worked up .And right in front of everyone Shizuku (french) kisses Natsuru.
Everyone is surprised and Mikoto is angry of course, with Natsuru being a childhood friend of hers.
While everyone goes crazy, Sakura asks Natsuru to come outside with her. While outside, Sakura tells Natsuru to “come with her” (Natsuru seems hypnotized). The two walk away to “go see the fireworks.
THOUGHTS
WOW, Sakura? Looks like she’s got some sort of multipal-personality disorder. Seems like she’ll be the antagonist of the series, which I doubt any of us who are watching the series were expecting…and she’s even got herself a group of Kämpfer minions or something like that. And speaking of those new Kämpfers, Hitomi seems really hot(cute), especially her eye-catch, I really like it(the eyecatches are some of the best part of the episodes~ and they’ve been getting alot better~ ). But anyways~ the plot is moving really fast according to some people, were on episode 9 and in the 8th novel of the light novel series…that’s way too fast, most 24-26 episode anime only get that far into a series…I wish they would slow down the story, it seemed to do pretty well for the first episode, and then by the second it moved to fast. And speaking of the plot…is it me, or did this episode seem to be all over the place? but I think that’s just an example of the story moving way too fast.
But despite all of the flaws in this series, and the few flaws in this episode…it was actually much better than what we’ve been getting from it lately, it seems as though Kämpfer has been trying to get itself together, the episodes seem to be getting a lot better than what they were before, especially this episode and 8(definitely not 6…). Unfortunately I think there aren’t enough episodes/they were too late to really try and establish some sort of arc/story and give it a nice or at least seemingly nice conclusion, but who knows, maybe it’ll be pretty good.
Shizuku is as bold as ever here.
Akane really seems to have a dirty mind, she seems to misunderstand everything Natsuru says, Akane also has really been trying hard to keep Natsuru to herself, don’tcha think and she has been getting jelous a alot lately as well. And does anyone else besides me think that Akane might be Bi?(not that it’s a bad thing)but she seems to be into both femal and male Natsuru… And the swimsuits were really plain, why can’t we get some like we see in the eyecatches?those are really nice~
I also really got a kick out the little Messengers just hanging there.
I know some people may be wondering what happened to series like Railgun and Sora no Otashimono, the ones I was going to blog on frequently, well, I haven’t done them since the first episode but I plan to start them this week, starting off with the latest episode, so I may have Railgun episode 9 out by today or tomorrow. I will try and continue till the end of each series, as long as their 12 episodes long…
