 Mei-chan no Shitsuji: Episode 8Spoiler Heavy with slightly massive picture content *Thanks to all the hard-working staff at d-addicts for doing such a wonderful and swift job with the raws and subs every week. Kai200X, you're the freakin' man. The one and only subber for me =) Raws and sub from there.
I skipped episode 7, I know, but it was too much of a drama thing. And in the end, Mei and Rihito separate. At least with this one, they come full circle and you bet I am super pysched about it.
What is memorable about that episode, besides the sadness, is that Shinobu seems to be unsettled by Lucia's continued spiral into Crazy Town. He's not a thoughtless lackey after all. Aw, he cares. It's not just blind obedience. Also, Rose confronts Shiori and warns her about the man Rihito will become. She seems to have been in the same position as Shiori and we can only assume it was with Yu-san and Shutaro.
There is also Rihito's slight confession to Mei before she leaves. Ugh, what a bittersweet scene.
Last episode...Mei leaves St. Lucia. She says her goodbye and so does everyone else...well, not really. Mameshiba leaves with her. So, we find her back in her hometown.
First and foremost, Rihito looked mad good in this episode. Like super, super hott yo.
From her job, Mei remembers last week's episode. Mameshiba comforts her as she mourns what she has lost
At St Lucia, everyone is feeling her absence. Then they hear Mei and Kento. Hurrah!
Sike! Milk and Daimon just have dummies of them.
Rihito is still recovering and Lucia insists on taking care of him....spare me.
I say, get your grubby paws off him, wackster!
That position is quite attractive Shinobu. You almost look suave =D
After he recovers and before he leaves, Shinobu informs him that the Hongo have contacted.
The sister reminds everyone that Rihito is not present. So, she's forgoing dinner. Mei is once again reminded.
Mammee stalks Mei a bit and wants to talk about what happened at the beach. Before he can do that...
Hold the phone. Am I seeing things??
Hell, I can't believe it either!
(I love that he's back in his entire suit. YUMMM)
He approaches Mei formally and tells her that if she does not go back to school in a week, she is getting booted out permanently and all her future inheritance will be denied.
'If that's all you have to say, thanks. I gotta bounce.'
OMG, RIhito, It's okay!!
Instinctively, Mammee gets defensive at Rihito's sudden appearance but is surprised to see his expression so pained.
Sad music plus sad Mei.
Stupid shitsuji! Why you gotta show up and make me mopier than I already am?
'Now that Mei is gone, you gots to go back to Shiori.'
'Aw sh1t, do I have to?'
Everyone comes to visit and bring her back.
The sister goes ballistic over all the guys. In the confusion, Rika gets her head stuck in the paper wall.
They're all wondering why she up and left without an explanation. Mammee comes to her aid and tells them Lucia has been bullying Mei for some time and if she didn't leave, they'd all get hurt eventually.
The butler-lover comes out and makes it known that Rihito is missing before passing out. Everyone wants to know if she's okay with him going back to Shiori. Mei tries to play it off that she's happy here.
(It's not that she's miserable because of where she is, she just misses Rihito, ohkay?? And everyone, too. But there's no admitting that.)
Why, what's so great about this place? When she says nothing, they wonder if it's a man.
'Your ass can't get a man. Puh-lease, girl. Who are you kidding.'
Insulteld, Mei points to Mammee as the lucky guy on the receiving end of her unbridled affections. They have a date tomorrow, too.
Natsumi passes out.
This is news to everyone, Mammee and Mei included.
Somewhere dark and depressing...
'Lookie here, I'll handle all the hard sh1t, you just stick your pretty self by Lucia and all will be well. I'm still running dis thang.'
'Wth are you really after, huh white boy?'
'Puh-shaw! Like you can do anything about it even if you knew. You're so useless right now.'
Mammee sits on an old lady cause he can't contain his excitement about their date, even arriving two hours early for it. Mei is so excited, you can really tell.
No one can believe they're on a date...until...
The slow motion kicks in and BAM! Major points to Kento for slickness.
Um, Mei? What's with the gloomy expression?
So it's true...she won't be coming back then =(
I'd be bawling right now if I were her =(
The girls get her a gift. Their messages are sweet. Aw.
Back at the pits of despair...
Tami interrupts Rihito's pining and rubs salt on his wounds, showing him a picture of the date with the holding hands part.
Damn, whatta bitch. Of course she was there with her trusty camera.
She pleads for him to be more attentive to the emotionally unstable woman that caused him to separate from Mei.
Yeah, good luck with that.
Lucia gives a greeting but is ignored.
Like she cares, though; she's in La-la Land. She probably doesn't notice that they're all talking sh1t about her, hahaha!
Everyone's been demoted to Ombra for caging-in the Soul-less Sistahs. (They should do that more often. They can't be demoted any lower and they can't kick them all out. Stuff those snobs. Stuff em good.)
OMG, I'm totally fangirling Kiba right here. He's adorable, normally, but wow. When he's all serious business face => fangirl flail.
Oh, right. He asks Rihito for a word or two.
Mei requests Mammee's help at work and we learn she is saving money to buy her own udon shop. AWww =( Mammee, giddy and distracted by that bit, starts pouring a lil too much.
Some udon eater happens to know the Shibata's and inquires about Rihito. Mei overhears and returns to her internal hole of SAD.
Awww...Poor Mei...poor Mammee =(
There's a butler's conference at the dining hall.
'What in tarnation's name is bloody wrong with you, Shibata?? For crying out loud, get a bleedin' hold of yourself and get Mei back. You're acting pathetic.'
'Look guys, I have to serve who the hell they tell me to. I'll be crying inside but I gotta do what I gotta do.'
'Well we don't like it. You are a damn invertebrate. '
Huge sigh of frustration.
Being highly sensitive to Mei's feelings, Mammee is so conflicted. He's happy to have her all to himself and back at home but she's obviously miserable.
Oh, Mammee. What will you do?
HAHAHA, Rose and her theatrics are the best.
The udon Rose makes tastes like Mei's family's. Why??
Ooop, the truth comes out. Rose knows Mei's mom quite well because they went to St. Lucia together. Yu-san had to drop out because her family lost their money. But she was aiight cause Shutaro was with her.
And Rose was Shutaro's fiancee, right?
So reading between the lines, (a skill I still do not posses so I don't know why I'm even attempting) she is telling Mei that if she had Rihito, no matter where she is, even if she has nothing, she'll be alright.
"A person with no will to fight will never be happy."
I think you need to tell that to Rihito as well.
Rihito spends hours looking for this book that isn't there. I think he's gone a bit mad.
Shinobu wants to sprinkle some sunshine on his day so he reminds him that after tomorrow, Mei is going to be gone for good with no way of returning. Shiori is really happy to have him around, even though he's just a walking body with no one upstairs (duh, she's a loon).
'But Rihito, you're running from your misery, that's why you don't care.'
'How many times I gotta tell you to shut your face, boy?'
"You're spineless."
Shinobu, you just got major brownie points for that.
Speaking of walking bodies with no one upstairs, aka "shells", Earth to Mei.
Mammee is happily telling her about school and going back but she's just not with the program.
"Where are you and who are you talking to?"
Oh Mameshiba...what a sweet way to put it. Poor guy =(
You're not Mei! Give her back, shell-Mei!
 
Hahahaha, that place is freakin creepy.
But what's that? Why are there sounds coming from Mei's room? There's no one there!
OMG, you tormented thing.
You know guys, misery loves company. Y'all should hang out and mope together.
And Kento knows what he gotta do...
NEXT DAY...
Turn on the battle music.
"You, who is in Mei's heart. Mei, who is in yours."
Wow, feeling a bit awkward to have that said out loud, Rihito?
I'm glad I'm not the only one that gets pissed that he always looks like he doesn't care.
Meahwhile, Milk picks up Mei.
Fione-ass beat-up face.
"He is going through a test right now. For his heart."
I should be laughing at that, but I can't! It's so true.
'Don't you care about what happens to Mei anymore? I've always been looking after her. I'm not giving her up.'
Oop, ya said the wrong thing. (Or is it, the right one?)
OH no, it's THE RIHITO BATTLE THEME. Slightly reminiscent to the Pasa Doble.
(I love Strictly Ballroom.)
It's on now, suckah!
OH, BUTLER BLOCK. I don't want to be vulgar, I mean the "other" kind of vulgar cause I'm plenty vulgar already, but
COCK BLOCK hahahaha!! Literally XD Get it? Cause they're all guys. Get it? Hahahaha!
*crickets*
Oh..........tough crowd -___-
Sh1t, this kinda barbaric, innit? Tell me why no one is taking bets?
Aw, sweet.
"I can't lose." "Same here."
Finally, something sensible coming out of your gorgeous mouth.
FATALITY.
Hahaha, it's brilliant how they didn't even see her come in.
So, are you going to stay?
Forgive me, baby. "I have finally woken up."
About time.
"I will never leave your side again."
Oh, sweet, sweet words that make me giddy.
Take it girl, TAKE IT!
Yeeeaaah!!
Welcome back.
Rihito-sama, you make me so happy with your beautiful, formal Japanese.
Shinobu - damn yo-yo.
*drool*
Overly adorable.
Preview:
Lucia is now a full blown basketcase.
They have to compete for the title. Mammee and Rihito working together.
Mei and Rihito together again, awww...Yay!
Only two more episodes guys =(
