Oh god that was the funniest thing I've seen in AGES.

Basically, its just throwing all the Type-Moon characters together and letting WACKYNESS commence.

This episode focused on Fate/Stay Night, re imagining the Grail War as a crazy gameshow hosted by Ilya and Kotomine. AND IT WAS HILARIOUS.

There was also gratuitous Neko-Arc.

When did Arcueid get so goddamn adorable? Because she was adorable in every scene she was in.

Next time, Melty Blood! ZOMG THIS WILL BE AWESOME

[Fencedude]

The cast of Melty Blood plays Beach Volleyball.

It goes about how you'd expect.

Arcueid's trolling of Ciel is masterful.

I don't know much about Miyako, but she was pretty awesome too.

And isn't it sad, Satsuki?

-Mapo tofu~
-Two Arc kitties? Three? One is an old man? WTF is going on here?
-All I remember of Tsukihime is Arc and a guy with glasses who had badass cutting powers. So I am totally lost in this opening.
-Rider? Since when is she in anime.
-Okay now I'm trapped in an early 90s fantasy OVA intro monolog.
-AH! This girl's voice is annoying.
-IT'S TIME TO DUEL! ... That's not the kind of card match I was hoping for.
-Now THAT is a prince of tennis. A dark monsterous prince.
-Before~ Aftah~
-Huh. That guy (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=am5yfrcn98E).
-Infinite quack hammers?
-Arc is the prize?
-Some guy I never saw before is blasting off again. I guess.

-AAHAHAHAH! Mahou Shoujo Arc what?
-A Chikuwa is fine too.
-A panda?

Who are all these people? I don't care! It was kind of funny. Needs much more Arc.

[strangefour]

-Mahou Shoujo Arc episodes are too short. And why does she hate fungus?
-Bi~ki~ni~~~~
-Don't fight over Shiki girls. There's enough SHiki for everyone.
-Maids have done mad.
-The Ciel is broken.
-Is that a horse girl? She has hooves.
-Curry rice!
-Gal Undo Meteo!
-Nice castle Ren.
-Cello sword?
-Heh white haired girl is funny. Nice skit.
-Damn budget cuts.
-TAIGA UPPER CUT! Hehehehe.

This episode was funnier. Since I had a vague context of who half the characters were. Plus boobs and volleyball and better jokes.

I don't know much about Miyako, but she was pretty awesome too.

I don't even have a clue who that could be!

[Fencedude]

-Is that a horse girl? She has hooves.

Its...uhh...Ciel's Pildriver-gun...weapon...thing.


I don't even have a clue who that could be!

The little girl who did Panda-fu

For those who didn't read/play Melty Blood, Miyako is Shiki's cousin (non-blood related btw).

[Fencedude]

Arcueid goes to school! Arcueid doesn't like school.

Shirou sleeps.

Isn't it sad, Satsuki?

Phantasmoon still hates mushrooms.

[pathos]

You know, I've actually read the Shirou sleeping bit from somewhere before. I can't for the life of me remember where though.

[strangefour]

-Stuff.
-Curry Fatty?
-No Arcneko #1. School comedies are not great.

-Stuff.

-Hooray! The Afterschool Alley Alliance is here to save me from boredom.
-At least their snap turns make me giggle. Thanks girls.

-Now a loli mushroom? Mahou Shoujo Arc really hates mushrooms.
-Seaweed is fine too!

WTF! That was horrible.

[pathos]

You know, I've actually read the Shirou sleeping bit from somewhere before. I can't for the life of me remember where though.

Oh, finally remembered. A doujinshi named Hinata no Yume. Strange how that doujinshi turned up in this. Perhaps the doujin was based on something official?

[Fencedude]

Rin doesn't get along with machines

Shirou and Shiki are going to die

OH NOES The Afterschool Alleyway Alliance is breaking up!

[strangefour]

-LASERDISC! Blue ray...
-Someone just sumbled into a pile of bootleg exploitation movies.
-This is why god invented Tivo.

-These little cat intermissions are making me want an Arcneko figure.
-Urge to make cardboard cut out paper craft rising...

-Damn it Arc. Yuri is not a poison! It's a cure.
-A daikon radish is fine too!

-The laugh track is ruining my love of the Afterschool Allyway Alliance girls.
-*snap* *turn*

Well that was better than the third episode. But the first two were more fun. I will miss the AAA girls. Well the cute white haired one anyway. The other two are varying levels of one note annoyingness.

[Nork22]

-This is why god invented Tivo.
Which is more useless than Rin in Japan. :)

I can imagine myself being annoyed by someone like that yet that was rather cute from Rin.

Also gotta love the Doki Doki Date Battle Plan. I voted for the harem date route only because it would be more amusing and Sakura was lacking in the first season.
