Anime ChannelMay 1, 2010Angel Beats! – 52by Snow 751 days ago Another quite sad episode of Angel Beats! They’ve also changed the OP back to the original one, I do like the piano but I also liked the Rock version. It rocked! (pun intended). After episode 4, mixes with the piano and guitar version have emerged everywhere, if you want to hear it check out Youtube. Which version do you like more, the piano, the rock or the mix? I like the mix than comes the piano and at number 3 comes rock. This episode is all about making Tenshi fail her tests so that she resigns as class president, the plan is to switch the tests that Tenshi makes with a tests which has gibberish on it. There would be a great impact on Tenshi’s dignity and she might get unable to pursue any members from the SSS, well that’s the ultimate goal. For the plan to work someone has to get a seat right in-front of Tenshi and switch tests. To do so, they all have to draw a paper with the seat number on it. See how happy Yurippe is with her number 1 seat, even though that’s 4 rows away from her target. In the end, -Christ- gets the lucky number and it’s his job to switch tests. Wait a second.. what’s Tenshi’s real name again? Who cares! just write down Tenshi as the name on the test papers.. or wait maybe it’s better to write down Kaichou? Tenshi is so cute, she’s short and oh so innocent. =3 There are 3 tests and after each tests it’s up to the ‘gang’ to distract everyone (but especially Tenshi) so -Please call me Christ- can do his thing unnoticed. All 3 attempts to distract the class fails miserably but do bring a good laugh, Yurippe wouldn’t be Yurippe is she didn’t have a backup plan… a jet engine attached to the bottom of their seats so they get launched to the ceiling. The “Replay” parts are definitely worth watching 3 times ^^. The last one is a confession gone wrong, haha. Okay now comes the sad part of the story, the ‘gang’ succeeds in getting Tenshi to fail all her tests and she’s fired from her position as Class president. This scene was quite sad seeing how angry/sad/confused Tenshi was and yet she can’t do anything about it. Otonashi however has a lot of compassion with her, he is probably the only one who doesn’t think of her as someone that sends others to .. *a better place* but as another human, another soul trapped in that place unlike Otonashi Tenshi doesn’t have any comrades. Though I wonder if you could call the people in the SSS as friends.. With Tenshi’s resignment there has to be a new Kaichou, it’s a boy this time and I somehow get the feeling he will make the SSS-crew’s life a living hell, what Tenshi did will be nothing compared to what he has planned. At least that’s what I think =p. GirlDeMo, the song that Yui sings is pretty good but I still miss Iwasawa =(. They only perform to steal other student’s lunch tickets, funny how nobody notices it. I wonder when the insert song of this performance is going to be released. I’ll post it up if I can get my hands on it =). Seeing Tenshi move through the crowd to buy a lunch ticket and ignoring the band was such depressing moment, not only has she been stripped from her status but Yurippe ‘steals’ her lunch ticket.. Look at how she stares at the ticket while it floats away. Tenshi is my favourite character and I would love to hear her story, what she did before she died and why, just why, she opposes Yurippe. Who knows, maybe she’ll be able to join the ‘gang’.. heh.. that’d be great to see, not having to eat alone but .. surrounded by friends. This very picture + Tenshi ..
