Gosick

Post by alicetama »

Yeesss I just have to make this topic. This show is just so awesome in so many ways.

Summary (from wikipedia, since my summaries are always bad):
Gosick takes place in 1924 in a small, made-up European country of Sauville. The story centers on Kazuya Kujo, the third son of a Japanese Imperial soldier, who is a transfer student to St. Marguerite Academy, where urban legends and horror stories are all the rage. There he meets Victorique, a mysterious yet beautiful and brilliant girl who never comes to class and spends her days reading the entire content of the library or solving mysteries that even detectives can't solve. The series mostly focuses on Kazuya and Victorique getting involved in different mystery cases and their struggle to solve them, at the same time forming important bonds with different people.

The opening theme is beautiful. The ending theme is beautiful. The animation is beautiful and fluid, and the way Victorique solves the mysteries is just fantastic. This show has yet to bore me. (Which, I guess should be expected by the studio Bones)

There are currently 4 episodes in the series.

So... who else here is a fan of this awesome series? And if you aren't, go watch it. Now.

Well, Kujo himself is a so-called 'murder magnet'. xD

I love Victorique. xD Aoi Yuki is just great at playing her. I really like her laugh especially. xDD

Does anyone know when either the OP song or the ED song will come out?

I agree.

So, today I just finished watching episode 5. It was a little boring, though
Spoiler:
The ending with Victorique blushing was so cute! I seriously love the KujoxVictorique couple. <3

Next episode seems very interesting. Looks like a lot of things will happen.

oh ya so far the anime has adapated the first novel, then the first short story I think (or at least the first and part of the second volume of the manga) and then it is looking like they are adapting the second novel. if you want to read the first and second novel, they are published in english. I think they are rushing though the novels though. because they cut out a major section of the book or at least reduced it down to a five second montage and a few character interactions. also there is a really cool point of view trick that they do in the novel that they cut from the anime. I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommended reading the novel if you like the anime

The Loli's cute(though Evangeline still win in term of Gothic Loli) but the mysteries were so-so..

Unlike Conan, I've been able to find out whose the culprit half-way (sometimes, from start of the story)

Episode 5 spoiler below!!
Spoiler:
Haha I agree with you!! Victorica is so adorable when her cheeks become all puffed. XD I can't blame Kujou for trying to poke her cheeks in the first episode. ;D I also love how in episode 5, she threw the books at the fake Avril to save him and later she said, because he is my servant. Gosh, I love her
I also agree with tantei okuoku about the light novels. The anime is awesome but the novels are even better!!! :)

I really like it ^_^
Spoiler:
In terms of mystery, it's not the method of killing that's the focus, but the background stories, which is quite intriguing :)
Also, Victorique's loliness is just... <3 XD lol...... Also love the chemistry between the two, the protectiveness of the Kujo and bashfulness of Victorique XD, love how those two depend on each other :). An anime I'm glad to have seen :)

I just watched the first 2 episodes, and it wasn't bad. I like the way Victorique laughs. XD
