I mean, yeah, it's nice that a good distribution company got their hands on it, but now the subs for the second season are going to stop completely because of the policies of the two fansub groups doing it. -_- Am I the only one who’s semi-pissed because Geneon liscensed Saiunkoku Monogatari?

No? "Note that this book has never been checked out." Enough said on that I think. Anyway, Bokurano really does seem to be moving a bit slower than I thought it would - I guess it'll be a 24-26 episode series after all. On the other hand it seems to be paying really close attention to the characterisation side of things, and I love the opening theme tune. It'll be interesting to see how the next kid copes in battle, especially with that very unusual outlook of his. I'm still waiting for Darker than Black #4 to finish its download but I knew there was something odd about Mai - the star connection was the giveaway really. The flowers near Hell's Gate reminded me of those in Wolf's Rain - I don't know whether the similarity is intentional or not but it's very intriguing. It's possibly my favourite of the season so far.
