Why is Oboro grinning while on top of Hakuoro? Read on for the non-gay explanation

The licensing of Utawarerumono by ADV into “Shadow Warrior Chronicles” wasn’t exactly the best news I had heard all summer. However, with official DVD releases you often get packed in extras like the Mai HiME yuri specials we all prayed to Haruhi for or the hilarious Shana-tan omake. This time around we get a hilarious 7 minute skit that singlehandedly revived my faith in utaware after the whole mecha addition, and shot Aruruu up on my bishoujo rankings.

Synopsis:

The emperor of war and love alike, Hakuoro, is being bogged down by paper scroll work and quickly decides to take a break and grab a snack. After venturing into the storeroom and finding nothing to subdue his hunger, Oboro comes to his aid. Also there with the intention of snacking, Oboro knows that Eruruu is smarter than to leave food lying around to be nicked. He quickly shoves aside a box revealing a hidden door filled with goodies. After devouring their light snacks, Oboro hears Eruruu incoming and hides in a pot…on top of Hakuoro (See, he’s not gay ^^).

Eruruu, upon seeing that her stash has been discovered, is a little concerned seeing as the food that Oboro and Hakuoro just ate was spoiled and she was planning to throw it out. With a little concern for the poor souls who ate it, she leaves the storeroom. Realizing they’re screwed, Hakuoro and Oboro lament their mistake while the onset of diarrhea begins, as does the race to the washroom…and by “race” I mean the slow penguin like waddling that arises from trying to hold in an explosion of bodily waste XD

Upon arrival to the coveted washroom, they realize their mistake in both coming to the same one. The negotiations begin peacefully as both explain their reasoning as to why they should go first, but quickly escalates as swords and fan are drawn…only to be subdued by their increasingly painful stomach aches.

But what’s that in the distance? Hakuoro sees an incoming loli-furry, it’s Aruruu! Screaming for her daddy and getting a running start, Hakuoro knows what’s coming. Thinking quickly, he grabs Oboro and uses him as a human shield as Aruruu dives head first into his stomach. Ouch. With Oboro down for the count, Hakuoro takes a moment to honour his friend’s sacrifice. Taking advantage of her daddy’s speech, Aruruu walks into the bathroom as Hakuoro screams in distress. Finish with a random shot of Yuzuha and that’s that.

Thoughts:

This special was made of more win than the entire official season combined, with the exception of possibly episode 1 & 2. I laughed for a good 5 minutes when I first witnessed Aruruu’s headbutt and have played it over and over since. Aruruu is now officially the cutest loli of 2006, headbutting her way past Kyon’s imouto and the pink haired tsunderekko Louise.

If only the main storyline had more moments like these instead of crazy plot twists, endless conquests and random mechas. With few episodes remaining and too many storylines to tie up, I doubt we’ll see anything akin to this special in the main series. But with numerous DVDs to be released, we can only hope that the attatched specials will be as hilarious as this.

Oboro and Hakuoro square off for bathroom rights!

The victor…?

…diarrhea

Incoming furry!

O_O

Ahahahahaha…lmao-nnaise, roffle-copter, lol-lerblades and etc

Oboro gets abused so much in the anime, apparently he kicks ass in the game

Bad guys aren’t the only ones to get screwed over by unnecessary dialogue
