After much excitement from the previous episodes, a chapter of the story closes it’s door and the school festival ended with it. Konoe’s existence was erased from the world and left only memories behind for our heroes. Bal Masqué’s plan was only executed partially, it seem to made no difference to the greater goal they aim to achieve.

Kazumi broods over the Hougu that was given by Pheles. A Hougu that summons Pheles but at the price that the user’s power of existance will be depleted. For what reasons would Pheles pick her as sacrifice and will Kazumi use it when the time is right. Meanwhile Margery found out that not only the Reiji Maigo has been sealed, a transmitter like spell was implanted with it.

Silver’s hand manage to pierce through Pheles, badly wounding her and from there started to drain her powers. Then slowly as though Silver was empowered by the power he drained, half of his torso was outside of Yuji’s body. Meanwhile Konoe and her servant is moving in the Fuzetsu normally, ready to be reveal her true nature and purpose. An unexpected scene shown in Seireiden, Silver’s body is traped in chains but missing from head and half a torso. Just how much is Bal Masqué involve in this.

In the midst of the confusion, Konoe flew to Yuji and summoned Hecate’s staff which with it, sealed the Reiji Maigo that resides in Yuji.

Eternal Lover

Shakugan no Shana II Episode 14Heh

After the big fight last episode, none of the mysteries was solved other than revealing that Johan is really alive. Though in the midst of everything, Pheles pushed Kazumi away by saying that she is only a human and shouldn’t be involved but why the same thing wasn’t mention to Keisaku. Yet Shana did not let this petty scene trouble her love rival and still involve Kazumi in everything.

Shakugan no Shana II Episode 14

Then Kazumi asked for a very surprising request. What do she hope to achieve by bringing Pheles to the school festival? Trying to reignite her “human” feelings? Shouldn’t they learn a lesson when Wilhelmina tried that on Margery? On the other hand, Eita and Matake are doing fine together. But Eita does seem to have a problem facing Margery after the school incident and is now facing a crossroad in his life.

Back to Kazumi and Co. It seems everything is going well for Kazumi as she tries to remind Pheles what love means to he. The day ends with no casualty and the school festival finally comes to an end. But as Pheles is about to leave, she played her trump card. Everything that she did turn out to be a diversion for the real Pheles arrive and she is determine to get Johan out of Yuuji. She was prepared for everything, expect for Silver’s hand coming out of Yuuji’s body and piercing her.

Convergence, Then a Hint

Rating:9/10

Shakugan no Shana II Episode 13Go go

Pheles, the Beautiful Whim has finally came! Finally a worthwhile action packed after weeks into the series. Yuji panic while cornered by Pheles, released his silver Fuzetsu and Margery went berserk seeing that. No doubts things are going bad for them. Even Wilhelmina whom I thought to be a calm person is quite shocked and is trying to accept that the inevitable has arrive.

Shakugan no Shana II Episode 13

With Shana going against Pheles and Wilhelmina holding down Margery, the school became a bloody battleground. The battle looks grim for Shana and Wilhelmina with Pheles’s Inbelna has a clear advantage while Margery beyond the voice of reasoning continues her destruction. Kazumi, Keisaku and Eita cannot do anything as they are only human in a battle of monsters. Even Matake was not spared.

Shana and Wilhelmina manage to seize an opportunity and their teamwork is to be reckon with. Margery had finally recovered her rationality but at a great price. More plot were release with Johan being alive and trapped in the Reiji Maigo. As they fix the mess they made at the school, I wonder if the emotion scarring left behind today is mended as well. But at least this event somehow turns out well somehow for Matake.

Huggy Scene

Took her long enough to get that close

Shana Forum Sig

Posted by Neko Kyou in Forum Sigs on January 14th, 2008

Up to about a year ago I used to be pretty active in many different forums, mostly anime or gaming related and I would usually create forum sigs to use on them. It was a really fun way to pass time and I would usually create 2-3 new sigs a month.

For some reason I started to frequent forums less and less. Right now I only visit them once in a blue moon when I have nothing better to do. Because of that I’ve also lost motivation to create new sigs since no one would see them anyway.

Then I had this idea from Dyna with his DS skins and PSP wallpapers. I could start showcasing them on this blog instead of my previous gallery which hasn’t been updated in months (not a mention quite a hassle to do it too, since I need to edit the HTML files manually).

And so, here’s the first sig I’ve made in a loooong, long time. I felt like doing a Shana sig after watching episode 13, where Shana finally snapped out of the love-triangle nonsense and kicked some serious ass.

Shakugan no Shana Forum Sig

Have you ever noticed how the shirt always gets torn off first on a guy but if it’s a girl, the skirt/pants/dress/anything below the body except the panty gets torn off?

Let me know what you think of it. I plan to do this quite regularly so please check my forum sigs download page if you plan to use any of my sigs and leave a comment if you do. It would motivate me to do more 😀
