how the hell does Rangiku stuff herself into that schoolgirl uniform O.O and she's staying with Orihime O.O the flowers have been planted, now they need to gorw.

looks like they're about to do something big with orihime. the Arrancar are beast. completely forgot about the power limiters the soul reapers had to have in the living world. Ichigo just got his new upgrade and by upgrade i mean he can now make use of what he already had.

Thats what I like about his power-ups, tbh. IT is mostly about "ironing the flaws" of what he already has.
Also if you notice the mask design keeps changing and getting more complex

Yeah I remember manga ending. It was full of plotholes, nothing was explained and whole story felt pointless.

keep watching the plotline is out of order. this series requres a lot of patients but your questions should be answered by the end of it. the 5th movie should bring things to light. the 1st movie actually takes place 4th chronoligically.

I know it's not. But keeping a viewer dangling for four entire movies is a bit too much.
I feel that it has been episodic in nature, so far. The end of the fourth movie did take me back to the previous episodes, and it seems like KnK has its very own Kirei.

I'm starting to think I should've watched in chronological order.

My whole interpretation of it was that it was trying to throw all these ''deep'' psychological meanings and explanations at you, but was really not anything deep or extra-ordinary if you gave it some thought.

I was confused as hell by the first movie and the beginning of the fifth movie. Although, a lot of people say how KnK doesn't really try to explain anything in a simpler way, which forces you to think quite a lot and can be confusing as hell at times. You're not the only one who was confused as hell by it.

I, myself, kind of got the topic of the story and what it was trying to do by the end of the movies, but didn't quite grasp Lio's character fully and all the symbolism, deeper meaning, etc. KnK had until like a second re-watch and the fact that I read a lot of people's ''reviews'' and such on the series and characters. And I'm pretty sure there's still a lot of stuff I missed. But that's what I love about KnK, FSN, Tsuki, etc.

There's some aftercredits scenes in the movies which tie them together and sequel hook I believe, but while there is an overarching plot line the movies do also stand on their own. The overall plot only ties together as you go along.

Kirei is sort of his own archtype character in the nasuverse (though mind you Kirei himself is the most recent of the type) KnK is def not your casual friendly series unlike Fate which can be considered your poor mans type moon by some fans.

.watching it in aired order give you the opimum experience imo.

Well, it is not that I do not understand what's happening--I have been able to grasp a lot of what's going on. What's ticking me off a bit is that it's all so... haphazard. I have OCD with these kinds of things. Plunging back and forth between different time periods is interesting but KnK seems to take it to a whole new level.

The problem here, with me, is that I'm starting to get bored.

Thank you for your kind offer--I always do come back crawling here when in need of answers, so I might do that. :>

The timeline thing can be confusing in KnK, yeah. Quite a bit of people I know got confused by them, you do start to piece things together as you watch more of the movies though.

Well, you're on movie 5, right? That should bring quite a lot of enjoyment and entertainment. It was my favorite movie alongside the seventh movie. A lot of people have the 5th movie as their favorite as well.

idk if i would call myself a "fan" of haruhi but apparently i've soldiered through more of it than what a number of actual fans have done so i guess i am? Kyon himself is a boring shit character is only good for snark once in awhile. it's really the interractions with the other characters that more so do it. like with nagato during the endless 8.


as for upernatural. how do you like the supernatural elements in this verse? it's not like Fate uses different mechanics. Magic itself is even still bound to some of of science.

Well, I intend to offend no Suzumiya fans. I come in peace~

The magic in the Fate/ world is more.. fantasy rather than supernatural. It's less of paranormal and ghosts and stuff.
That's why I like it.
Epic/High/Dark Fantasies are my thing.
