Apologizes for the delay, I had an event to go to on Saturday and came home with blood-shot eyes no thanks to my contacts. Next morning I had a lot of trouble opening them due to severe dehydration. I am a lot better today thanks to the eye-drops but it is still red and uncomfortable. At least it’s not an eye infection, that would have been a catastrophe. I will have Macross Delta out later this afternoon or evening depending on my eyes’ comfort.

It looks like B-Project is finally coming together, the first step is finding a way to work through a problem by having enough faith in one another, mainly between Kazuna and Tomohisa. Due to being sent the incorrect time (no thanks to Yashamaru), Tsubasa and the boys were very late for Rehearsals and a series of problems swiftly followed. From their fellow performers trash-talking about them, stage readjustments, forcing them to change up their dance routine due to the lack of space, to stormy weather. The only thing that kind of worked in their favour was the storm situation. B-Project Ep 4 Img 0007With thunder and lightning crackling overhead, it is understandable why no one wants to go out on stage in such conditions- it is simply not safe. But B-Project became inspired to take a hold of the opportunity after Nishiyama (holy smokes he’s hot, but what the heck is with that outfit?!), who helped them get a slot in this concert through recommendation (I have no idea who he is, but I’m guessing he is one of their more successful seniors at the company). Due to Tsubasa having spilled coffee on Ryuji’s B-Project outfit, it was Ryuji who suggested B-Project: NAKED edition. Truthfully speaking, it was a genius idea on his part. To perform their unit’s pieces shirtless in the rain, is striking to two birds with one stone. Epic fanservice and the other is to not only buy time for Tsubasa to remove the stain, but also prevent their outfits for their key feature, B-Project Ambitious from becoming too saturated and heavy.

The one thing that threw me off this episode was how swiftly they switched gears to increase the pacing and progression for B-Project. For the last few episodes we seen a rift between the units and lack of faith and interest in the project. But all of that seemed to have changed, as if it didn’t even matter, and by the end of the episode they have all agreed on the goal to work towards: Performing at the Dome. While they literally weathered today’s storm, it has been indicated more will follow and it will be interesting to say the least of see how the writers will pace this development to their final form.

And finally one last thing: I would not be surprised to see at least one of them get sick next week due to performing in the storm.
