Little Busters (Anime) episode 21 Reaction & Review

Haruka's cleaning devastation

Little Busters!, a anime which focuses on the story of adolescence of Kyousuke, masato, kengo, rin, riki, mio, kud-o, kurugaya, haruka, and komari-chan. up until now, they delivered the story of each heroine better  (in my opninion) . komari-chan, mio, and haruka's story have already been told, and now, the anime is entering the story and secrets of kudryavka.

Festival of the Stars

i won't compare the VN and anime too much in this part because i'm sure that they will fix some errors in the story in VN in the anime regarding Kud's route.

i'm actually suprised that they used a common route which is Haruka's cleaning story to start kud's route at first. :)

kud's route started when naoe riki found kud in the schools courtyard doing some rituals, later on she explains to riki that in that day, in the island of tenuva where kud comes from celebrates the Festival of the stars. saying that "our meeting here must be fate!" , kud invited riki to join her in doing the ritual because it might increase the chance of wish coming true.

in this episode, Kud's true name has been revealed namely "Kudryavka Anatolyevna Strugatskaya" 

Riki helps kud putting the family crests in kud's back to complete the ritual because kud can't reach it.

Family crest

Later on, she tell riki the story about her mom and

the one of the famous constellation in southern sky called "Southern Cross" or "Crux", she called the four stars composing it "Akruks, Bekuruks, Gakruks, Dekruks" and called "Yuzhny krest"

After that day, the usual members of Team Little Busters! and some students in the cafeteria saw the news in the TV stating that a Rocket launch will be made in the island of tenuva, and the astronaut who will be riding the said rocket is S.I strugatskaya, Kud's mom.

while komari is wondering that the woman on the tv looks like someone, kud reveals to the entire team that she is her mom and made the team astonished and suprised.

But on the Day of the launch, something happens which shocked everyone, mostly to kud.

The launch failed after a explosion happened and the connection between the personnel inside the rocket was cut-off.

this news shocked Kud that made her unconscious.

My reaction to this episode : good, i actually grasped the story easily but due to fast happenings, i already want to watch the next episode xD based on my memory while i'm playing her route in VN, i want to see the "Gears of the world" crumbling apart xD

that's it folks! :)
