Summer Pockets rewatched:

I don't like Shiroha as much as the other heroines, so the series really drags whenever Shiroha is the focus.  But over half the series, Shiroha isn't the focus, and that half of Summer Pockets is amazing.  Umi interacting with Shiroha sort of averages out, between the best and worst character, but Umi interacting with Hairi is perfect.  I could watch that all day.  Overall I think my ranking of 114th is pretty accurate.  This gets me one step closer to my promise to rewatch all great anime to prove it's truly great.

Meanwhile, I edited 'Sophie' in chapter 17 of '100 Waifus' to be 'Sophie Lhant,' as it should have been, because that's her real name, not one I made up.  Once I found a mistake to edit, there was no reason to not edit other things, so I also reversed Kudryavka's name to be 'Kudryavka Anatolyevna Strugatskaya/Noumi' instead of 'Noumi/Strugatskaya.'  This lets all the Russian name be said at once, which is more euphonious.  Then I went ahead and switched two names out -- I added Sana from 'Tenshin Ranman' and Athanasia from 'Who Made me a Princess?' as two of Christopher's daughters, replacing Izetta and Perona.  Izetta is an anime that I'll soon be kicking out of my top 200 rankings, so it doesn't need representation in '100 Waifus' anymore.  Perona is sort of a villain, so her quality doesn't really compare to heroines like Sana or Athanasia.  Protagonists of great series will always have above average traits when compared to side characters or villains.  Both Sana and Athanasia are blonde-haired and blue-eyed.  They're as beautiful as girls can be.  And I love their personalities too.  Sana with her hopelessly-inept-attempt-to-be-a-tsundere, and Athanasia with her fluctuating selfishness and selflessness.  They're both so adorable you can never look away.

It's just editing names, not any content in the book, but I still think this is a marked improvement to the novel.  Well worth buying a new paperback version for.

Speaking of spending money, I spent another $66 on Heaven Burns Red.  Inori and Hisame got new SS Memorias, both schoolgirl uniforms, and I instantly bit.  As luck would have it I secured them both, as well as getting pirate Aina her level 1 limit break and diva Ruka her level 2 limit break.  I also got halfway to phantom thief Jamie's level 3 limit break.  Phantom thief Jamie and samurai Inori are my two heaviest hitters, so improving them is more important than anybody else.  Schoolgirl Inori doesn't directly aid samurai Inori, but she does indirectly help by giving her higher stats and new useful skills.  It's all for the sake of someday defeating the last boss, Anachrony Skullfeather.

I tested out my new level 2 limit break diva Ruka on the new score challenge boss, and what do you know she kicked ass, alongside the rest of Squad 31-A.  I got over 1,100,000 points, fulfilling the 'million point' title badge requirement for all six of my main character maidens for the first time.  The only other squad who's scored that well is my critical penetration squad (i.e., the one with Jamie and Inori.)  These two squads continue to outshine the rest of my army, so I keep steering more and more resources their way.

I wanted to give admiral Aoi a limit break, but my free quartz stupidly got me doctor Seika's level 1 limit break instead.  So close and yet so far.  It was a 50% chance it would be one or the other, so of course I got the other.  My new plan is to keep rolling for admiral Aoi until I reach 150 exchange points and then just forcefully cash in all my chips and get my limit break with no chance involved.
