i was trying to get back to where i was, so i rewatched a few to remember kinda what's going on. and seriously, as much as i enjoyed their characters before, i think i have never liked kira and shuuhei more than in those few episodes where they kicked their opponents' asses. i think they never really got the spotlights they deserved until this arc.
but quite honestly this was my favorite line/scene in the entire arc, even superceding the ridiculously funny yumichika fight.
i do agree. kira really does have "emo" written all over his face, but it's why we love him. ^____^
