Kyou Kara Maou!


I'm watching Kyou Kara Maou now! Reached about episode 49 I guess... Second season. Gosh I’m so in love with the characters... There's the naive and idiotic Maou, Yuri, who's deep sense of justice prevails above all else. His "fiancé", Wolfram, is hot tempered and always gets jealous no matter who Yuri talks to. (Seems like a guy and guy relationship in Shin Makoku is a norm.) Gwendal is funny when you think of his obsession with CUTE THINGS! A warrior like him who looks so formidable, that actually loves to knit and is afraid of the so called "scary" feminist, Anissina. Now, among them, Conrad is the most gentle, and understands Yuri the most. Perhaps it’s because Yuri was born from the soul of Julia. (Who I suspect is someone Conrad is in love with) And, Conrad is the one who always dote on Yuri and pampers him. Not to say that the others does not but they have their own ideas of how things are done and prefers their way of executing them. Wolfram loves to call Yuri an idiot and Gwendal is just plain cold. But they really do "sayang" Yuri a lot. My favourite character would have to be Gunter. Although he's slightly obsessed (Ok. VERY obsessed) with Yuri, I kinda liked his character best. Silly most of the time and is only RARELY serious, he is so hilarious to look at but at the same time, I have to admire his sword skills and he just looks so awesomely cool when he's not going gaga over Yuri. Gyaa! His short experience of having his soul transferred to a kokeshi doll is extremely funny. Got me rofl... XD Another funny episode is when a certain Princess Elizabeth is introduced to Yuri only to make herself known as Wolfram's fiancée! Wolfram of course chose Yuri but Elizabeth knocked all the utensils onto the floor and poor Yuri accidentally picked up the fork again to all's dismay. You can even see Conrad holding his face in his hands behind Yuri. Romeo and Paris! They fight, one fall. But who is the one who fell? Yuri wanted to lose because he thinks Elizabeth is better suited for Wolfram but everyone made comments about it and so he resigned himself to the fight. When all seems lost, Wolfram steps in and defended Yuri. Elizabeth was so mad she started on Wolfram and even used magic but Dark Yuri stepped in this time because he does not want to see someone he cares for hurt. And so, he saves the day again! Yuri still has to endure having Wolfram in his bed but "Oh well..." *shrugs* Nothing is ever perfect. Not even in the Great Demon Kingdom. =)
