| 9:25pm | Special A - Episode 7 | | | | After the thought of Kei being in love with her was implanted into her head during last episode's party, Hikari begins episode seven of Special A having rather a lot of trouble shaking those thoughts from her mind. Similarly, Kei is determined to find out what was said to her, and with the gang arguing... | | |
| 12:28am | Special A 7: Hikari Acknowledging Kei’s Love? Can’t Have Any Of That, Now. | | | | Hikari confesses her love to Kei, so Akira goes yandere. Lol, not. Well, Akira does go a little yandere. Determined to discover what Saiga told Hikari in the previous episode, Kei employs his brilliant mind to entrap Hikari with the perfect plan: He challenges her to a contest. If he wins, she has... | | |
| 10:35pm | Special A - Episode 5 | | | | After watching yet another episode of Special A, the only word which springs to mind to describe it is 'okay'. It certainly isn't terrible, but than again it's not all that great either, leaving this plainest of words as the most fitting.After threatening to dissolve into yet another rather daft contest... | | |
| 4:00am | Why should I bother to continue Special A? |  | | | There are only a few shows that completely frustrate me. Shakugan no Shana and Shuffle! were nowhere near excellent, but both were enjoyable (in the end) and filled with characters that I liked. I thought the shows were rather boring in the beginning and lacked any real depth and consistency. Shuffle!... | | |
| 8:30pm | S.A - Special A ep.07 | | | | This is probably the best episode that have come out of this series. Seeing the other characters getting so much screentime is definitely better for the story since they are the more interesting and amusing part of the series. It still doesn't make either Hikari or Kei more likeable but at least... | | |
| 1:19am | Special A - Episode 05 | | | | It’s Special A Episode 5. It’s time for the Founding Festival, which the Student Council and the Special A have always worked together to organize. That’s basically asking for trouble. Go Straight to the Screenshots | Go Straight to the ReviewHikari and Kei meet with the Student... | | |
| 2:38am | S.A - Special A ep.06 | | | | I think part of the problem that this series had before is because the writers try to stretch one volume of the manga for one episode. Vampire Knight writers realized that this is impossible and does a good job of mixing up a few chapters but that's not the case with this series. Thankfully the writers... | | |
| 1:57am | Romantic Rematch! Toshokan Sensou challenges ItaKiss and Special A | | | | Following the two-and-change shoujo shows in this season has been an interesting look at the sort of evolution this genre has undergone in the 21st century. There are distinct kinds of styles found in these shows tailored for the female audience - although they still manage to find a large audience... | | |
| 10:14pm | Special A - 5 | | | | I have high tolerance. :p Hikari and Kei are helping the Student Council with the Founding Day Festival. Kei's decidedly unhappy about having to work with the Student Council, so as usual his aloofness causes the entire thing to turn into a contest. Which Hikari is fine with. Hey! I like cotton... | | |
| 11:55am | S.A - Special A ep.05 | | | | This episode is actually pretty good. The animators are starting to get used to using shoujo style conventions (soft filters, pastel colors, etc). The cheesy crayon drawings that always appear during Hikari/Kei scene still present but it's easy to ignore them and just focus on what's good about... | | |
| 2:41am | ~S.A~ Special A - 4, Brothers.Teacher |  | | | Kei’s little brother, Sui was introduced in this episode. Sui is having troubles with his tutors/teachers because they can’t stand Sui. So, Hikari stepped in and became Sui’s tutor. Throughout the whole episode, there are conflicts between Sui and Kei and they don’t get along... | | |
| 6:48am | S.A - Special A ep. 3 |  | | | [ Episode 3: Onigiri ･ Sincerity ] This episode was definitely better than the last. Sure there wasn’t any “action” but I still found it to be quite enjoyable. The whole setup with Hikari making a bento for Kei isn’t exactly new but I loved how it was all executed. Kei’s... | | |
| 3:23am | Shoujo Showdown! Special A vs. Itazura no Kiss, expounded to painful length | | | | I enjoy contradictions; not only in my mind-bending anime that I watch but also in what kind of anime I watch. I like to tout my love for the visual-novel conversions, a genre that is on the mild end, gender-neutral with cute girls and sad stories, and on the extreme ends, a fanservice free-for-all... | | |
| 9:03pm | S.A - Special A ep.04 | | | | With an episode like this one, I often wonder what's the main story of this series. Does the series try to say that Hikari's obsession to defeat Kei is admirable? Or does it actually say, forget trying to defeat your childhood friend. Instead, you should hook up with him/her. If I remember correctly,... | | |
| 12:24pm | ~S.A~ Special A - 3, Riceballs.Devotion | | | | This episode turned out ok. It’s still an average episode but at least it’s better than the previous two. The other characters (Jun, Megumi, Ryuu, Akira, Tadashi) got more screen time in this episode, maybe that’s the reason. But this episode still focuses on Hikari and Kei (3 episodes... | | |
