Level E 04 – Into the darkness

Yet another episode that I used the episode title, anyways, Prince will not make his appearance, instead we have four guys who some chick being eaten by their fellow student and decides to ask help to some hippie who referred to them on some Level E course in some shabby clinic that is beside a strip club!

Even though this episode focuses more on the story about those four guys who are scared because they witness an alien eating their student, we still have the same opening sequence. Could this be that the Prince is trolling us again? Anyways, one thing that I noticed about this episode is that the drawings are a bit “dirty” some might say rough, but the roughness of art added depth to the dark storyline that we are having right now.

Since the four guys are some generic group of punks, I will skip them and go to the aliens in this episode, the Conwell race, a race of aliens that eats their women for them to bear a child and this episode focuses on the urges of one Conwell. About it, I love the issue of self-control!

If I would place it in the real world side of things, you might interpret it as “doing that deed" and that the man can’t resist doing it with the girl he likes because his body can’t take it anymore and wants to do it. In this case, he likes the girl but he doesn’t want to eat but he must because it is part of his nature as an alien. 

This is one aspect of Togashi-sensei that I might say he is a genius. If you lay it down, here is how it goes. He likes the girl but still wants to see her everyday but wants to eat her because that is how they express their “love” with the girl but he want to see her but he must eat her to express his love for her. See what I mean? This sort of tragedy keeps me glued watching this episode.

Overall, the art, the darkness of the story and the good balance between comedy and drama in this episode makes this episode stand out from the rest of the other episodes and you can watch this episode even with no background knowledge about the first three episodes of the show.

Like what the previous episode noted about the Prince’s writing skills, yep, it turned out that this is one of Prince’s schemes, I mean, projects for the sake of humans understanding the aliens surrounding them…, which surprised me in the end and caused me to pull the same expression I had back at the climax of the previous episode! And since this story never worked for a video game company named, Zega since it is too dark, the Prince’s next plan is to create five kids who have strong sense of justice and will wear colorful costumes!

Yup, the next episode is yet another Super Sentai parody! Seriously, what’s with Japan and the amount of tokusatsu references these days?! Just earlier, I made a Bakuman review and mentioned about Niizuma doing Rider 1’s henshin pose, now this?! This is indeed, the year of Kamen Rider and Super Sentai!

Level E 03 – Risky Game… NOT!

The whole episode in one picture. Yeah I got trolled.

Finally, two episodes worth of prince madness has finally come to its end… with a bang! Not actually a bang but just a sight of the Prince being chased by lasers and Miho playing a RPG with Yukitaka being tanned! Anyways, here is the third episode and if you are wondering why I retained the episode name with “not” at the end, just read the review and be prepared to be trolled!

The third episode has the mix between weird and fun at the same time. Weird because we never noticed that the Prince is responsible with everything that is happening… we haven’t got a clue! And fun because we don’t know that he is responsible for everything that is happening!

The revelation at the near end of the episode caused me to either laugh my ass out that I was trolled by a Prince or scratch my head say to myself, “Is this a work made by Togashi-sensei? If it is, he must be taking something that he decided to troll us at the end.” And because of that, all I can say is, he is indeed a genius, now finish Hunter x Hunter once you are out of your hiatus!

This episode, aside from Prince trolling us at the end, we learned the reason why Captain Craft hates the Prince and happy to beat the hell out of him if given the chance. It is because of contradicting the Prince back then and ends up being part of one of his experiments! Anyways, the sight of Craft beating the Prince while smiling still cracks me up… along with the subtitles found in Prince’s video!

As for the Prince in this episode, well, I seriously love his attitude more and how he acted when he learned that everybody knows his plan/experiment/method of trolling/whatever you like to call it. I hope I will see more of him in the near future even if it was seen at the preview (on the right) that we will not see the him… or is it?

Left: Where are the lasers?! Right: And I thought it is only Japan who is addicted to baseball! Aliens too!

Overall, comparing it to the other episodes, this must be what I can say, one of the best-structured episode in terms of comedy. Why? It is because what they did here is that they pull some minor laughs at the early part of the episode, went to a short halt when the Disckonians attacked and throw in the punch line at the end with the humor slowly subsides after the laser chase!

Or is it?

As for the plot, it properly closes the things that were established in the previous episodes properly. While writing this review, this is when I realize, why the Prince ended up landing on Earth and on some other planet? It turns out it is all part of his plan!
