Innocent Lilies 2 Episode 5

 
Japanese Blonde Girl wakes up to find herself back in the Ouran High School Host Club room. Drum Major Boy and the band start to explain their plans for world renewal. With Japanese Blonde Girl's help, they'll simply wipe out the existing human race and start all over with newer, better humans. Drum Major Boy had tried to do this once before with his original witch, Aqua, but she locked herself away and separated her power into Black and White. Japanese Blonde Girl doesn't seem to have any problem with being the mother to a new world order.
 
Badminton Girl, left behind down in the parking garage, doesn't know what is going on or what to do. The spirit of Rina appears before the girl, urging Badminton Girl to get her ass in gear and go wake up Aqua. She's conveniently located beneath Black Witch Academy.
 
While Badminton Girl races to save the day, Drum Major Boy and Japanese Blonde Girl go through a ceremony involving lots of apples. Before the spell can be concluded, though, they're interrupted by the arrival of Aqua. She tells Japanese Blonde Girl to snap out of it and not to trust Drum Major Boy. Japanese Blonde Girl is confused and doesn't know what to believe.
 
Thank goodness, here comes Badminton Girl to talk some further sense into Japanese Blonde Girl. Oh no! The band mates kill Badminton Girl! And here I was just saying how much I liked her. Her death is not in vain, though, as Japanese Blonde Girl realizes what an ass Drum Major Boy is. 
 
 
This realization gifts Japanese Blonde Girl with not only another new outfit but a new hairdo as well. She also now has the power to summon the spirits of her dead friends to fight at her side.
 
Drum Major Boy puts on his battle mask as the epic War Between The Sexes begins. While the dead girls take care of the band mates, Japanese Blonde Girl faces Drum Major Boy. His white go-go boots are no match for the powers of peroxide.

Somewhere in the afterlife/Mars/Yggdrasil, all of Japanese Blonde Girl's dead friends get to hang out together and have tea.

Innocent Lilies 2 Episode 1

Remember that show Innocent Lilies? I understand if you don't. I'd like to block it from my mind myself. Well it seems the show must have made some money somewhere because Japan has made a sequel. And for some reason I'm watching it.
 
 
The porn-lite tradition continues as the show dips its toe into Fifty Shades territory. A young girl (in requisite sailor outfit) is bound by restraints. She's surrounded by other witches, these dressed in black, as they chant for power. When the laser light show begins, all the black witches bite their fingers to contribute a drop of blood to the ceremony. Their human sacrifice explodes but the results aren't what the Black Witches were hoping for. They need a more powerful White Witch for an offering.
 
And there she is, Japanese Blonde Girl, kicking a bunch of guys around as feathers fly off her costume. To finish them off, Japanese Blonde Girl says the magic words and makes...  wait, is that a parasol? Did she just summon an umbrella as her weapon of choice? Whatever, it works and the guys are no longer a part of the story.
 
Changing back into her normal sailor school outfit, Japanese Blonde Girl is joined by Annoying Girl. Annoying Girl no longer has her witchy powers and can do nothing now but receive text alerts as to where other young girls are being bullied.
 
The Fifty Shades Girls are beating up on one lone white witch. One of the Black Witches has a whip, another one a fan with deadly spikes. The third one has... a hand puppet. A hand puppet.
 
 
Just as they're about to take their new sacrifice away, Japanese Blonde Girl arrives on the scene. After binding the Fifty Shades Girls with her red tentacles, Japanese Blonde Girl reaches to grab the wrist of the Bullied Witch. The touch causes Japanese Blonde Girl to flashback to season one and images of her villainous sister, Hoodie.

Anyway, the White Witches run off. Eventually the Black Witches break free of their Twizzler restraints and swear to capture their ultimate sacrifice. Off to the side a drum major looks on. Further unrelated images show us a girl on a rooftop playing badminton with herself in honor of someone named Rina.

Opening credits.



Japanese Blonde Girl and Annoying Girl take Bullied Witch back to their secret base (also known as a warehouse) in order to tend to her wounds. Oh, Bullied Witch introduces herself as the Rina who didn't make it to her badminton game up on the roof. She explains she had been attending another white witch academy when those Black Witches suddenly showed up and started hunting them.

Talking about the Black Witches makes them appear at the hideout. Whip Girl explains how superior Black is to White and how they will eventually rule the world. So they're like Nazi Witches.


The Black Witches go through their Sailor Moon transformations and change into their Fifty Shades leather outfits. Japanese Blonde Girl starts to change herself when Rina comes running over and stops her. Rina says this is her fight and now it's her turn to protect her protector. She does her own transformation and Japanese Blonde Girl is shocked to see Rina has the same elaborate angel outfit.

Rina, who was earlier being beaten up, is now the one doing the beating all by herself. Some wonder why she didn't do this before.


During the fight Puppet Girl pulls a bow and arrow out of her butt. (Hey, if the Sims can do it, why not Nazi Witches.) Annoying Girl valiantly leaps in front of Rina and takes the arrow. Distracted by Annoying Girl's death, the Fifty Shades Girls capture Rina. Japanese Blonde Girl is too weak to transform and is about to fall to the ground in a faint when she's caught by Drum Major Boy. He introduces himself as Tera right before Japanese Blonde Girl passes out.


So unlike season one this season will have a cast of ten! We've got white witches, black witches, and possibly male witches.

Innocent Lilies 2 Episode 4

The Black Witches have Rina tied up as they begin their ritual. Meanwhile down in the parking garage, Badminton Girl whines to Drum Major Boy about why isn't he rescuing Rina. (Although her voice is very whiney, I must say I kind of like Badminton Girl.) Before they get very far, the trio are confronted by Japanese Blonde Girl's dead-now-alive schoolmates. Drum Major Boy quickly makes tracks (in his rockin' white go-go boots) and disappears.
 
Japanese Blonde Girl prepares for battle with her zombie friends by transforming into her angel outfit. Badminton Girl tries to intercede only to realize at the last second, "Hey, I ain't no witch and I ain't got no weapons." Rina, feeling the pain of both Japanese Blonde Girl and Badminton Girl, appears to reach the pinnacle of the Black Witch ritual.
 
Japanese Blonde Girl casts a massive spell that frees the dead girls from the evil that controls them. Apologies all around. Sorry for trying to kill you and all that. After renewing their old pinky pledge of friendship, the dead girls explode.

Back at the black magic bat mitzvah, all the pain Rina has been experiencing through her friends causes her to transform. The black witches are extremely pleased with the results and think they'll be able to use Rina for their own nefarious plans. Rina's having none of that and transports herself to the parking garage where Japanese Blonde Girl is having a mental breakdown.

Blaming herself for the (second) death of her friends, Japanese Blonde Girl turns into a black witch. The other Black Witches show up and start to celebrate Japanese Blonde Girl's turning to the dark side. The celebration is cut short when Japanese Blonde Girl starts wiping the floor with them. She starts to go after Whip Girl, the apparent leader, when she's stopped by Drum Major Boy and his two band mates who have come to protect Whip Girl.

Rina tries to get her friend to calm down. Japanese Blonde Girl attacks. This gives the black witches time to change into their Fifty Shades bondage outfits. At this point Japanese Blonde Girl is simply attacking anyone who moves whether they be friend or foe. Rina tries once again to get Japanese Blonde Girl to come to her senses. It takes all of her strength but eventually Rina is able to drive the darkness out of the other girl's heart. This spiritual rebirth grants Japanese Blonde Girl a new outfit.

Oh no! This was all too much for Rina and she's dies.

The Fifty Shades girls are back to thinking they have the ultimate witch to use as their tool. This is when Drum Major Boy and his band mates suddenly turn and attack the Fifty Shades. They take possession of Japanese Blonde Girl and carry her away to use her for their own purposes.

Innocent Lilies 2 Episode 3

 
Japanese Blonde Girl and Badminton Girl are being held in a prison cell. The Black Witches come by to gloat and to introduce some special guests. It's the cast from season 1! There's Cat Ear Girl, Nerdy Girl, even Annoying Girl who just died. The Black Witches used their magic to bring the dead back to life. They knew it would bring pain to Japanese Blonde Girl. Because she's an empath, Rina will feel Japanese Blonde Girl's pain which will somehow make Rina strong enough for the Black Witches' ritual.
 
Japanese Blonde Girl (Why is she so sweaty?) is tied up while her former dead friends slap and punch her. 
 
 
 
This goes on for some time. Elsewhere, Rina writhes in sympathy pain until she reaches critical mass. Satisfied with their results, Puppet Girl and Fan Girl eagerly lick Japanese Blonde Girl's face for her tears of pain. Done with her, they put Japanese Blonde Girl back into her cell. This gives Badminton Girl the time to tell her and Rina's backstory.
 
The two prisoners are bonding when suddenly Drum Major Boy breaks into their cell and helps them escape. Whip Girl doesn't seemed too concerned about it. They still have Rina. Prepare everything for the ritual!
 
Outside in an alleyway, Japanese Blonde Girl hears the singing again. Drum Major Boy explains it comes from the origins of witches. Once upon a time, a long time ago, there was a girl witch and a boy witch. They lived together in paradise until one day the girl witch committed a sin. Feeling guilty, the girl witch imprisoned herself within a powerful spell, one the boy witch was never able to break.
 
End of story time.
  

Innocent Lilies 2 Episode 2

 
Wearing a disguise (which includes an eye patch for some reason), Japanese Blonde Girl proceeds to go undercover at the Black Witch Academy so she can rescue Rina. Greeting her at the door is Badminton Girl whom we saw briefly in the previous episode. Watching from afar is Drum Major Boy. He flashes back to when he took Japanese Blonde Girl to the Ouran High School Host Club room to recover from her faint. He's the one who told her about the open enrollment at Black Witch Academy.
 
 
Back to the present, Drum Major Boy is joined by two other band members. Tera enjoys an apple. Wait, does this mean Drum Major Boy is also a student at Black Witch Academy? I'm confused already.
 
Whip Girl gives her opening speech to the school's new recruits. She explains how women are superior to men, black superior to white. All you have to do is lick someone's tears of pain in order to gain power. I have a bad feeling there's going to be a lot of licking in this show.
 
 
Their first lesson begins as a test subject (also known as a sweaty fat guy) is brought in. The students are ordered to beat test subject up. One of them is quite eager to get her slap on. Ugh, just as I feared, she leans in to lick the fat guy's cheek. This licking causes the girl to earn her Black Rose, a tattoo that comes and goes, as well as a large plastic-looking halberd.
 
This inspires another girl to eagerly join in the beating and licking. Her reward is a curtain rod. Well, that's what it looks like. In the background, Badminton Girl looks on in horror. Japanese Blonde Girl tries to make friends but Badminton Girl is a lone wolf.
 
While snooping around the academy, Japanese Blonde Girl hears someone singing but can't locate the source. For some reason this brings on a recap of season one.
 
The Black Witches go to check up on a bound Rina and update her on the history of white people burning witches. Outside the door, Badminton Girl and Japanese Blonde Girl eavesdrop. They wait for the Black Witches to depart before rushing into the room to save Rina. Japanese Blonde Girl must take off her disguise in order to use her powers to break the bonds.
 

The Black Witches come back into the room. They knew Japanese Blonde Girl would come and try to save Rina. Japanese Blonde Girl transforms fully into angel-mode as the battle commences. Badminton Girl also fights back while Rina just stands there. (I still don't trust Rina.) Our heroines are knocked down and out and taken prisoner.
