Anime Sightings Old and New - Weiss Kreuz

[wc2bmalin]

I recently had the opportunity to watch an old TV series called Weiss Kreuz (released as Knight Hunters in the U.S.). I thought the DID scenes had been documented long ago: episode #3, #7 (actually a GID), and #10. So it was all the more surprising to discover that the series had two additional DID scenes.

In episode #12 a girl is tied with ropes in the back seat of a car. The front seat blocks the view of most of her head, but on freeze-frame it appears that she does have a gag. Later the same girl is tied with ropes to a tree (without a gag, so that she can lure the good guys to their doom).

And in episode #16 there are two glimpses of a "photograph" of a woman tied to a Y-shaped crucifix. Later there's an extended scene of 5 girls tied to the same type of crucifix. (No gags in both cases.)

Now you know why nobody bothers mentioning them.

In the end, if you want DID, you need to skim through entire series yourself.

Forgot to post on this earlier, but this is actually 2 extremely lame gag scenes I know of in Weiss Kreuz. In the Weiss Kreuz OVA, Manx, the sexy red-headed lady who gives the WK team their orders for each mission, is being held prisoner by the villains and can be seen cleave-gagged for a few frames. Unfortunately, we can only see her gagged mouth basically, not her face, so it's really rather pathetic. I remember being so pissed off when I first saw that because Manx was one of the hottest women in the entire series and I'd really been hoping she'd get a good full treatment scene. Then she finally gets a gag and...that's it!?

you mean this one. when i first saw the scene, i recheched the episode because i was hoping to find another shot of her. but nothing

[somedude37]

Yup, that'd be the one.
