Yumekui Merry – 03
What are Dreamy lolis made of?
Great week so far for my favorite non-merry anime; Star driver finally getting back into the story and plot twists. Also reading some manga about football and crazy power moves, thanks to Bass for recommending it. Besides anime, got Blazeblue Continuum Shift, fun little fighting game except my sister found a character that wins all the time! Still fun game to play with the family. Now on to the review!
Plot for this episode follows Merry meeting a little girl named Minato in the park and learning about her dream demon. Naturally Merry has to help out and defeat the evil demon! Also more of Yumeji using his special gift to enter Minatio’s dream world.
Minato so damn cute for this show! And her hat too!
Merry has a Simpsons moment, Mmmmm donuts…
Merry seems to be wandering around town till she spots a strange girl about to eat a donut for snack time and stares as the girl gives her half. She is really addicted to them! I hope she doesn’t turn into Keena with her rice addiction from Ichiban Ushiro no Daimaou. Merry then decides to play a game of kick the can with Minato until Yumeji arrives and becomes her chair as she falls on him.
Merry you need help! Well, it does look good…
Yumeji doubles as a lawn chair.
Defeated by a small child! Fail!
After the game, Yumeji uses his odd power and looks into Minato’s dream. He gets a bit of a shock seeing the darkness around her warning of another dream demon attack in her next dream. Minato enters a daydream and shortly after Merry enters along with Yumeji; they defeat the creepy demon inside and Merry tries to enter the other world but is pushed away. Very crazy looking demon chick too! Well, she had some epic faces.
You’re about to get raped! Run little girl!
Spiral power! Row Row Fight the Power!
*SLAPPPPPPPP* monster defeated!
Yumeji-“You’re totally a super hero!” –Merry-“Do not want.”
And before the episode ends we get a sneak peek at one of the girls from the opening, a girl with white hair and wings who gives another demon the business end of her large sword. She looks awesome and has a strange red crystal, wonder what that is for!
Bow before me! You strange bunny ninja turtle? Wtf is that…
BAMF chick! ‘Course, white hair red eyes instant villain. Lol!
Extra stuff!
D’awww cute blush…
Gym clothes and a dark room, what? Muhahaha
Minato thought Merry was a boy.
“Heh, I am not addicted to donuts.”
“OH CRAP! I AM ADDICTED!”
End thoughts!
This week takes a bit of a slow pace, mostly with Merry kind of being depressed until she meets up with Minato who steals most of the episode with her cuteness. Minato was a fun character even though she is just appears in this one episode; still was a nice addition and voiced by Rina Hidaka aka Last Order from Index and Mizuno from Star Driver. That alone made her win because I love those two characters! Not that Minatio is too amazing, just sort of there.
I also loved the bit with Chizuru and her eyes; they had some large crosses on them, looked really neat with them changing to normal, guess she is possessed? Either way looked really interesting. After Yumeji enters Minato’s dream to help also has me wondering how he can do that?! Maybe he is part demon or some crazy stuff like that. Just because he has the main role, must be a reason for his odd power to predict other people’s dreams.
The whole fight between Merry and the demon; just a slap to defeat the boss? Felt a bit lazy to me. Then again we have been watching another anime that has every boss being punched to end them. I kind of felt bad for Merry; she just wants to return to the dream world to find out more about her past, sadly I don’t think she will meet John Doe again until Yumeji has another cat dream. Most people really want to see him; however, he probably won’t get any screen time for a while.
Preview!
Next week we’ll be introduced to another one of Yumeji’s classmates, a glasses girl! And we get to meet another dream demon who looks really intense. Loved her eyes in the preview, they look pretty wicked.
Thanks for reading!

I’m sure interested in this new dream demon. Also, WANT MOAR JOHN DOE!

Hahaha yes yes everyone wants more of that guy! Sadly I don’t see them returning to Yumeji’s dream world until halfway through. Unless something dramatic happens to him to make him return to the cat dream world.

Nothing to Nipah about! I liked the ep 2 better. This week’s episode is vague.
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
Yeah this week’s episode didn’t do much for me as well, then again maybe we will get bits and pieces of the story thrown at us. Well we can only hope

Seems like they forgot about the chick who got her soul eaten last episode…but who cares! DOUGNUTS! Yay!
I am missing John Doe but the new BAMF could be a good substitute for now. She seems awesome and lol, yeah, white hair & red eyes = instant bad guy.
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
Yeah they did! Maybe we will see her later on I am sure somehow Merry will bump into her. Yes! Doughnuts!! Woooooo!
Everyone is missing more John Doe, lets just have Merry knock Yumeji over the head I am sure John will appear afterwards.
Yep angel chick looks awesome great design! Well my avatar has white hair muhahahaha.

Ahhh… isn’t John Doe the ninja turtle like guy being killed by the angel in this episode? ._.
Or am I wrong?
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
Nope that ninja turtle thing is a random demon, probably the one that rules over that world or just a grunt type. Probably killed him for information xD

I love the way Yumeji pronounces “John Doe.” He’s all like “John. Doooooo.” XD
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments

lOL, SAME THOUGHT CROSSED MY Mind xD. Also thought the guy was some sort of twisted ninja turtle.
I ROFL’ed when Yumeji compared Merry to a Tapir xP.
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
Lol yep! only thing I could think of at the time, looked like a rejected turtle anyway.
Poor Merry always being picked on! jk that was funny xD

POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
How does the manga stack up against the anime so far? following? or going way off? xD
