Mushi-Uta: Episodes 6 & 7
Rating: 7/10 & 7.5/10
Impressions:
The pace slows down quite a bit in episode 6, though it does build on Shiika’s character. Overall, it’s a nice little episode where she meets some other minor characters, enhancing the show’s overall character-character relationship matrix. The requests Shiika makes, and the fact that they are accepted, seem pretty strange to me. It seems that visiting schools is a big thing in many anime, though I guess if I had never been to one before, I’d be interested as well. Anyway though, hopefully Shiika’s visit to the school will mean Rina’s friends develop a more important role in the future, although I believe it to be fairly unlikely.
Episode 7 returns the thrill value of the show to normal, with some more action. This time, Asami has become a host, and I have a feeling she won’t make it to the end of the series. It seems that this show doesn’t hesitate to have people’s mushi killed. Kasuo will be problematic as well, though I find her sudden placement into the series to be rather hasty and unnatural. Luckily though, along with her, several other characters come into the light as well. I especially like the little girl who accompanies Kasuo when she appears. The guy with her doesn’t interest me much though…

Did you hear that Mushi-Uta is no longer a 12 episode show? apparently, 12 more episodes were announced to come. the slow pace worried me, but now with the additional episodes it makes more sense.
Episode 8 was pretty good, so catch up already!
Thanks for telling me. I’m going by 2 episodes, so the next post won’t be out until episode 9 is subbed.
arcanes you just made my day :D. im so glad they decided to extend it i mean if it was just a 12 episode series i was afraid the ending might be really crappy since they would rush everything and its getting really intresting now. i kinda guessed they would make more episodes but i thought it wouldve been in the form of a second season like zero no tsukaima first season included 13 episodes and now theres zero no tsukaima futatsuki no kishi. there were alot of clues too. well cant wait
That seems reasonable for this series to have more than 12 episodes because there are 14 volumes so far for the light-novels and there will be a crappy/rushing ending if this series has just 12 episodes.
Damn, I can’t wait for episode 9. I wonder why they have not sub it already since episode 9 was out in Japan 2 weeks ago.
Actually Mushi-Uta took a 2 week break so episode 9 aired just yesterday and several fansubbers are working on the Mushi-Uta Subs Right now
