Kekkai Sensen- 10
Bow before your new lord!
There is nothing more important than loving the food you eat. I don’t mean in the Silver Spoon sense of the animals the food came from or even from the aspect of the people cooking the food. But whatever you see on the plate in front of you is both pleasure, survival, maybe a social aspect, maybe a sexual experience (I’m looking at you Soma), and maybe even a religious experience (glad I don’t have to eat Matzoh for another year though). My point is, treasure your food or the God of Chow will smite you with his Famishment!!!
Let’s Dig IN!!!!
As the man who influenced almost all my life decisions once said “Eat it! Eat it! Open up you mouth and Feed it!” this episode is mostly about the good and weird stuff you shove down your pie whole. So with that being said, lets get on with Samsura’s guide to Hellsalem Lot’s fine dining establishments.
5 Stars, friendly service and very hygienic. I’ve known the chefs for a long time, my family is staying with them as I speak!
2 Stars. I left feeling satisfied, but I can’t truly describe the taste. But I had to go to the hospital after I ate, so their might be a problem with the food.
4 Stars. The hibachi style of cooking in front of the customer is very unique, but the screams ruined my appetite. But damn the meat is good and fatty.
1 Star. That damn fairy left a turd in my soup. Expect the store to be closed soon.
3.5 Stars. A perfectly fine Ramen shop. I just wish the waiters weren’t so insistent on 15% gratuity.
4 Stars. The fight to the death really wet my appetite. If only my co-author could have made it out of the restaurant with me.
5 Stars. Goki-san has traveled the world and its sewers in pursuit of truly wonderful and new tastes. Of all the chefs I know, only his dedication to cooking lasts even after his own head has ripped off. The man is a genius, I never knew you could make Soba noodles out of slime and paste, but the taste is to die for!
Hey wise guy, I’m Blogging over here!
MY SOUL BURNS!
Alright, enough jokes. I’d say 80 percent of this episode was just weird funny stuff, but the plot stuff was actually pretty nice this time. I find Libra’s existence more interesting seeing their relationship with other organizations. The police don’t like them, seems vigilantes never get the love they deserve. They are the Draculer fighters we need, not the ones we deserve. The psychics also have an interesting relationship with Libra. They clearly know and work together, but there doesn’t seem to be much communication between the two groups. But the psychics know about the collapsing barrier, and one other piece of important info…
Say my name…
At least he hasn’t started dealing crystal meth
When we finally do get the Drac in Black’s name, is it going to be something the audience will easily get? I mean, are they going to pull a seraph and just use names of famous people associated with real world Draculer legends, or will it be an in world thing? I like to think about these kinds of things. We know Drac in Black isn’t a nice guy, but him exploding some random alien punks was a little shocking to me. I feel like he’s getting crazier and crazier as the show has gone on. Plus, you get all the shots were you hear him whistle but don’t actually see him, but then the big head guy moves and HE’S BEEN THERE THE WHOLE TIME!
But then we finally get to the big scene, the church standoff. I haven’t made many comparison’s to Trigun with this show, but this really is the most Trigun moment of the show so far (I’m not a super big fan of Trigun, it can be a mess on many levels). But now the players are set, White has a decision to make, the apocalypse might be around the corner, and Zapp has a tummy ache. All is right with the world… FOR NOW!
Let’s just grab a burger
About Samsura
As someone of questionable tastes and even more questionable ethics; if we laugh at the same things you are one of two things: A person of discerning taste or a weirdo. Guess where I fall.

“Divine Famishment” Definition: Divine punishment by starvation. What a cruel and fearsome method of discipline. I’m quaking in my boots.
Talk about messed up eating establishments. I’ll say a prayer for residents of New York if they ever have to endure the horror filled sights Leo has. Poor Leo. Somebody should take him to the world of Shokugeki no Soma. There’s good food there if ever his favorite diner gets destroyed… beyond repair. 😛
Tepes
(Krul)or Bathory(Ferid)… Take your pick. One is just as fearsome and infamous as the other. The surnames of Count and Countess Dracula! But honestly, I think his name will be one personally tailored for the series’ world as long as it’s related to vampires. 50/50 on both possibilities. It’s anyone’s guess.My opinion on the King of Despair has shifted a bit due to certain developments. Here he is in general, plotting the city’s grand demise yet he went out of his way to avenge a girl bullied by a pair of monster thugs. A complete stranger. Either he’s not all bad or he just personally likes to be a gentleman to the ladies who aren’t swallowed up in his twisted plans. I’m looking at you, White.

I like Vlad Tepes (AKA Lancer) because he serves his enemies right justice (pardon the pun); Kebab’ed 😛
Elizabeth Barthory (Also AKA Lancer), bathed in the blood of cute virgins so that she might remain cute. The thought of it sends chills of glee down my spine.
Over time, my opinion of them has changed from evil monsters to misunderstood role models. >_>

Well, that’s twisted. They both did some pretty gruesome stuff. The reasoning behind Bathory’s kills, though, is a lot more chilling in my opinion.

Being a Lancer is suffering. 😉

Next week, Leonardo and friends visit Maison du Viande (The Meat Mansion), run by amateur gourmand and ex-psychiatrist Dr. Hannibal Lecter.
Excellent reviews for all the meat dishes personally made by Lecter himself, but he’s quite evasive when you ask him where exactly his meat supply comes from…

Hannibal: Would you like to visit my butchery? 😉
POWUH: Meta Resident and LN Informant with 1529 comments
No thanks, I’m a squeamish person. But I’m sure my friend Zapp Renfro would love a personal tour…
POWUH: and Vampire Lover with 11746 comments
No, thank you. The feel in the air is foreboding.

Well, another day in Hellsalem’s lot. The birds are swaying and the trees are singing! It’s a perfect time to dive, once more, into the breech. I guess it gives them another opportunity to not develop any characters or plot. I mean, when you can take a trip to all the hot spots in Gorgon Ramsey’s Nightmare Kitchens, then just do that. Don’t complain about the gnome/elf thing in your soup, or else everyone will demand one!

Oh, I so love the King of Despair. I just knew that he was the one whistling in all those scenes. It just came off so creepy. Whistling is usually held as something cheerful, but put it in the right setting and it can be extremely eerie. Two examples come to mind, one being the 1945 movie, And Then There Were None, where the murderer would whistle the same song off screen every time he killed his next victim. And the second was an episode of Justice League called “Eclipsed”, where every time an alien switched to another body, it would indicate his true identity by whistling the same tune over and over again. It could easily freak anybody out.
However, I like that we are finally getting this confrontation with White, Black, the King, and Leo. And after a episode full of hilarious hijinks and some of the weirdest restaurants ever thought of.
And after all this, I’m thinking the next episode is going to be downright “Shakespearean”. 😉
