Uryu blocks Ichigo & company from interfering with Ywach. When Ichigo asks why Uryu has sided with Ywach, he states it's because he's a Quincy.
The rest of Ywach's vanguard shows up on the scene, ready to battle Ichigo's group, but Uryu shoots the ground below our heroes' feet so they'll fall from the palace. Stern Ritter "X" mentioned that he knew Uryu was trying to save his friends lives by sending them away, but mentioned there'd be no way they could survive the fall (and even if they did, they'd have no way of returning to the palace).
Meanwhile, Ywach absorbs the power of the Soul King's right arm, but says to leave Soul Society alone for now, as he wants to slowly absorb all that the Soul King is.
Also, I've read up through chapter 10 of Gintama. Really starting to get into it.

Regarding Ep. 11 of Shinmai, I get what people are saying now. The house being a demon was not in the LN as well, but before that everything else was spot on. Vol. 3 is actually pretty short, so the studio must of thought it would be a good idea to extend it a bit for the anime to have 12 episodes. I’m sure a lot people were expected to see (only spoiling one pic) this, if they seen the illustrations of Vol. 3. But what they don’t know if they have seen the illustrations only, is that a certain someone's old man meets an acquaintance. After seeing a ton artwork of Shinmai and the limited edition covers of Vol. 1- 7 (also Vol. 8 coming in June with the OVA as well) makes me feel like importing some stuff, maybe I’ll buy the volumes. Hell, it'd be better to translate it Japanese - English than Chinese - English. Speaking of which:
东城刃更等 - Toujou Basara
东城迅 - Toujou Jin
澪 - Mio
万理亚 / 玛莉亚 - Maria (yeah, both of them, a bit confused on that, even though the 2nd one actually reads Maria)
柚希野中 - Nonaka Yuki
柚希胡桃 - Nonaka Kurumi
泷川 - Takigawa (拉斯 - Lars)
洁丝 - Zest
长谷川 - Hasegawa
佐基尔 - Zolgear
雷欧哈特 - Leohart
雪菈 - Shella
威尔贝特 - Wilbert
坂崎 - Sakazaki
^My process so far on the names (Chinese - English). If I made any mistakes, then don't hesitate to correct me. Plus reading the raws makes me more excited for when season 2 airs and the studio censors a ton of stuff, because how lewd Vol. 4 -7 are (you thought it was lewd before? My reaction when I first read them). ****storm going be good, people are going to be force to buy the uncensored Blu-rays.
Front color page of ZKC of Ch.401. Will give a short summary of chapters 398 - 401 tomorrow.
DBZ Kai - The tables have turned on Vegeta as Gohan went ape! Yajirobe gets his second (and last) notable attack in of the series! Krillin is about to end it all! Tune in next week 15 or so years ago to find out how it all ends!!!
Kill la Kill - First rule of Fight Club, don't talk about Fight Club. Second rul... what, we're announcing ourselves loudly to the world to take on all comers!? Well, I guess this anime wouldn't have it any other way.
Naruto Shippuden - Now THAT'S some serious Earth bending! Our heroes are now split up & find themselves in one on one confrontations with those who can command the battlefield itself.
InuYasha: The Final Act - Sesshomaru decides to end his rivalry with InuYasha once and for all, to see who is truely the heir to their father's sword (by using a method that allows both to use the sword temporarily, with the loser giving up the sword). Of course, I'm sure we all know who ends up winning, and another series long side conflict reaches it's conclusion. Also, if you noticed that the animation was a bit different/higher quality in this episode, it's because this story was actually animated a couple years before TFA as part of a 30 year celebration of Takahashi's manga career, and they simply decided to incorporate it into TFA, rather than animate it again.
Gurren Lagann - This was the most energetic, action packed, and yet bittersweet finale to an anime I've ever seen... It was quite a fun ride though, and I'll miss it.
One Piece - Look what's become of Chopper, oh deer (pun most definitely intended)! Also... It's a bar of Dove, of Zest, or Irish Spring!? No, it's Kalifa, the amazing soap woman!
Also, they aired a promo for Sword Art Online II, which will be premiering next week (to replace Gurren Lagann). I enjoyed the first series, so let's see how this one holds up.

For 50 episodes? Naw man, MSRP would've been $50 minimum, though most retailers would've shaved off quite a bit for pre-orders. While this release is missing the Japanese uncut version, it's a damn good price for what it is.
Shinmai Ep. 12 - So did everyone enjoy the following things:
Basara's line and action of "Like hell I'm going to let any dastards pull a netorare on me!". The kiss with Yuki and Maria also happens in the LN. That inner darkmentality.
Zolgear's death at the hands of Lars, while Basara gave him the cold look (LN one was a crap ton better, not to mention the kiss happens first, then his death)
Jin saying hello to Leohart. Icing in the cake is that Leohart's onee-san, Riara (yandere) has a crush on Jin (he pull through, LOL).
Honestly the anime was meh (certainly better than the rest of the harem shows of this season). Now to wait for the first OVA. Also here are the images of the first uncensored episode of the Blu-ray version (Left) compare with the TV version (Right): http://blog.livedoor.jp/nylon66/archives/52151368.html
Some images may be inappropriate, you have been warned. Wouldn't be surprised to find a raw version of the Blu-ray right now.
I'll talk about the 2nd season that's covering Vol. 4 - 7 some other time.
Re:Monster Ch. 12 (manga version) - Goblin Rou has finally become a orge.
LN version of his goblin form against the red bear before promoting to an orge. Just a few more chapters for "that" to finally happen.
I finished watching both seasons of Symphogear. They were alright. I had fun watching them. The first season could have been better without the major cop-out ending and the second season had a few pointless fights that contradicted the personal goals of the characters.
What annoyed me the most from both season is that the good guys more or less let the villains do what they please until the very end. Heck, I don't know why they needed the girls to fight when they had super humans on their side.
Also, Hibiki reminds me a lot of Naruto. Both of them have orange as their theme color, go berserk when angered, and try to befriend everyone despite. She bears a strong resemblance to Madoka, and even shares the same voice actor.
Just watched the first episode of Rio Rainbow Gate. I don't get the negative reviews that some people think about it but then again, what can you say negative stuff with just one episode.
Shirobako Is another series worth watching as well as your lie in april.
Ywach somewhat stumbles after absorbing the Soul King's power, and it's so great that it floods out of him (in the form of millions of little eyeball creatures).
Ywach's vanguard were about to attack the creatures, but Ywach said not to worry, as the Shinigami (Soul Reapers) are the Soul King's true enemy. Apparently, he was a threat so powerful, that the Shinigami sealed him away and used his great power to keep the three realms in order. Ywach's prediction rang true, as the creatures bypassed his vanguard and gushed down to Soul Society below.
The sky above the Soul Society goes pitch black as the creatures encompas the entire protective forcefield that surrounds it. Soon they start leaking through the hole that Ywach used to reach the Soul Palace (the one that was created by Ichigo when he first arrived after his training). Rukia, Renji, Ikkaku, and Byakuya tried fighting them off, but their sword attacks were ineffective. Luckily, the creatures started to die off after being crushed by an enormous spiritual energy...
That of Sousuke Aizen, who has arrived on the battlefield, and as an ally?!
