Shouta Fox V.S. Wolf - Heaven or Hell. Let’s rock!

Summary:

Chizuru attempts to have her with Kouta as usual on the school rooftop, assuring him that it will be alright with her barrier up. It is soon found that someone has broken the barrier, however, and Chizuru sees that it was by a man named Saku. Over lunch, Kouta learns that Saku is Nozomu’s older brother. Saku expresses how much he has heard about Kouta from Nozomu, before claiming to have come to see Chizuru. Seeing how attached Chizuru is to Kouta, Saku places a charm on Kouta’s arm. When Chizuru tries to take it off later, Kouta begins getting a strong headache. Chizuru asks Saku about this later, so he claims that the charm is meant to prevent shameless acts. In a worst case scenario, Kouta could die from its effects. When Chizuru asks why Saku would do something like this, he claims that it is because he is interested in Chizuru. Before leaving, Saku asks Chizuru to be his. Frustrated that night, Chizuru makes plans on what to do after helping Kouta.

The next day, Chizuru despairs at the fact that she cannot follow Kouta to school. In class, Kouta and his friends realize that Chizuru had become a regular part of their lives before they realized it. During this conversation, Chizuru is only able to watch from afar. Nozomu asks about her brother’s actions on the school rooftop, but he simply tells her to believe in him. Chizuru continues to be frustrated throughout the day by only being able to watch Kouta. Kouta keeps believing he senses her in the meantime, but acts likes nothing is wrong in front of Tayura and Nozomu. Kouta visits Chizuru’s home that night, but Chizuru is unable to face him at the door. Afterwards, Chizuru declares that she will remove the band from Kouta’s arm. Tayura is quick to remind her of the consequences, but Chizuru believes that what she is experiencing at the moment is the same as being dead.

Tayura gets help from Omi and Mio the next day, facing Saku in Chizuru’s place. Tayura and Omi send countless attacks at Saku, but they find that they are no match for him when he transforms. When Chizuru finally catches up to the group, she transforms herself in order to face Saku. Noticing that Kouta is troubled in the classroom, Nozomu asks what Kouta thinks of Chizuru. He is only able to reply that he does not know, but Nozomu quickly alerts him of the battle that is going on afterwards. When Kouta finally reaches Saku’s location, he sees everyone’s damaged states. Kouta goes to Chizuru’s side, and even Nozomu prevents her brother from reaching the two. Wanting to help Chizuru, Kouta combines with her once again. With this, the two are easily able to defeat Saku. Realizing that he has lost afterwards, Saku removes the band from Kouta’s hand. Saku leaves both Chizuru and Nozomu in Kouta’s hands later, and takes off on his bike once again. Further away, he meets a young girl and her guardian. Not wanting to be involved in such work again, Saku simply reports that the power was real.

Impression:

Wait, did my mindless fanservice anime just almost turn into a romantic drama and fighting anime? I dunno how excited I could get over a shirtless wolf spirit battles, but watching Chizuru struggle about seeing Kouta was pretty fun. I guess they do have to go for some kind of plot for this show, especially since it seems like a lot of it has already been stripped out for the anime adaption. But eh, I don’t suppose this episode will be as talked about as some of the previous ones. Watching kamehameha fights can be fun sometimes, but Kanokon is no Ikkitousen. I did laugh at the team having Chizuru being left naked after her battle just because they could though. It seems like we’ll soon get a look at the loli and her guardian that have been appearing in the OP, but I guess I’ll just be expecting more of the same formula next week.
