Exactly! This is why the manga was so much better. The anime was so slow and drawn out, and those 3 nuns were so annoying!
I actually managed to force myself to finish watching the rest of the series the other day. I mean, it's nice seeing it animated, but it doesn't help when it just isn't well paced. At least it followed the manga a little better than some anime adaptions though...
Speaking of which...
Finished Kuroshitsuji II yesterday (after watching less than half of Kuroshitsuji, which I quit because it was so God-awful and went totally off track from the manga).
It was like a completely seperate thing from the manga altogether.
While it wasn't as bad as I thought (didn't have nearly the amount of fillers as the first series did), it was still....strange.
The best part was probably
Spoiler: seeing Alois get stabbed.
lol
I know that may sound terrible, but it's true.
And the ending was just...seriously, wtf... That's all I can say. lol
The only thing this series is good for is AMVs since there are a few pretty good scenes (even though people still can't see to make them properly - ie; WITHOUT SUBTITLES IN THEM).







It starts out with a pretty good premise, but it turns bad quickly. The pacing seems horribly slow. It starts out well, but after Teito makes it to the church, it becomes pretty boring. It has a couple of good moments, but the majority of it is pretty dull, and the plot doesn't really move in most episodes. A sequel looks like it could be promising, but without one, the series isn't that good.
