[Anime] Kannaduki no Miko, Eps 3-5

[elfs]

So, I watched more Kannaduki no Miko (or Kannazuki no Miko, as some people spell it), and I'm digging it. Chikane still hasn't confessed her love for Himeko and seems really perplexed by the whole thing because she believes its unnatural, but she wants Himeko so bad. Souma also wants Himeko, and Himeko responds to his advances, but she knows there's something, something that she feels for Chikane that's holding her back. Chikane and Souma know they're rivals, but they don't know why. Goodness, it's touching and fun.

And it's not as predictable as I had first thought. There are other issues here being dealt with quite well. Himeko and Souma were childhood friends until they were separated, apparently because both had really abusive families. Himeko's got this thing about her hair, and Souma's brother comes out of his shady past to really turn the story upside down. Meanwhile, poor little Himeko is being teased at school because everyone's jealous of how she has the undivided attention and rivalry of the school's two hottest numbers, and... It's not as predictable as I had feared. Good.

Massive fanservice, mecha, unrequited lesbian desire and a good subplot? What more could I ask for?

I suppose there's no fansubs for this series, right? You're just watching the raws? :(
