Cheer dance revolution! :3

These babies have been waiting for me in London since mid-summer. Now I’m back in the UK, it’s time to inspect the goods! I was led to TSRI by moyism’s praises and felt really satisfied with my first ever purchase - the Cardcaptor Sakura boxsets.
Value for money. The GITS:Innocence OST was USD 9.99; Angelic Layer DVD thinpak boxset was a great bargain bin find at USD 25.99; thanks to the Bandai 40% off sale, the Haruhi DVD 1 Limited Edition special box was a much more affordable USD 38.99.
When Erica’s review pointed out that Milano and Alita would have kissed at the end if they were a straight couple, I agreed and immediately thought of the above scene. But given BEE TRAIN’s penchance for yuri subtext, I was expecting a little more and a tad disappointed that they had nerfed the scene from the end of the manga where Milano asks to share Alita’s bed.
Even though there’s no definitive ‘They are a couple’ moment (e.g. for StrikerS, there was the Big Bed scene though for me it was when Mari thought that Vivio was Nanoha x Fate’s natural born daughter), their mutual concern for each other’s safety and willingness to put self in harm’s way to save the other was amply showcased in Ep 5 too shows a very strong bond at the very least. The way that Milano says ‘Himesama’ can be pretty spinge-tingly-in-a-good-way though. :P
At least it would have been nice for them to end that sunset scene with Milano and Alita fooling around and then transiting/finishing with this photo.
Bread factory? What was that all about? Misao gets a rare upper hand on Kagamin!
