Episode 6 ~ Points.
- Avril and Kujou are out and about together, In an open market like setting they first run into a strange
Magician who makes Kujou's text books disappear... and turn into a turban. They also meet a vendor fake
nun who is "selling" a plate... With an exploding music box and pigeons as distraction said Nun steals the
pretty plate.
- Kujou takes the disappearing plate case to V-Chan who quickly solves that it was the Nun {It was kind of
obvious anyways}, Telling Grevil this he makes the arrest.
- The Plate is Never Found.
- In the newspaper there's an open invitation to all Gray Wolf Descendants to come to the village near
Horovitz for the Summer Solsistice festival. Kujou shows this to V-Chan and off to Horovitz she goes.
- There's a little drama before going, V-Chan trips and falls on her face and reacts quite badly to the pain the
fall gave. Kujou trying to be funny flicks her in the forehead which causes her to go into a minor crying
meltdown..
- Even with V-Chan upset with him Kujou tags along to {The dentist} Horovitz with V-Chan. {He thinks
she's having teeth problems because her face is puffed up.} He's quick to figure out that they aren't going to
the dentist....
- On the Train the Nun pops up again, In their car of all places.
- After spending the night in Horovitz they make their way to the Village of Gray Wolves, V-Chan, Kujou,
The Nun Mildred and three males.
- The Welcome isn't that warm at first, the men of the village recognize V-Chan and Cordelia's daughter and
take up their swords. The Elder however has them back down and welcomes her even though she is the
daughter of a Murderer.
Episode 7 & 8
Cordelia Gallo ~ V-Chan's mother, She was once a maid in the Village of Gray Wolves but was exiled after it was believed that she killed Elder Theodore. 15 at the time, She went into his study at midnight to change the water in the jug... others {including the current Elder} saw her use a key to enter the room and then moments later scream and run out of the room.
Startled, The current Elder ran into the room and found Elder Theodore dead on the floor... a knife in his upper back. For an unknown reason there were gold coins scattered across the floor. {The village doesn't allow the gold coins to be used there so the Elder confiscates them}.
Cordelia fell sick after the incident but...after her fever went down the current Elder being the next in line at the time exiled her... With just a trunk of belongings and a single gold coin. She had never left the Village before...
-V-Chan and Kujou go to her mothers old house, under a floorboard they find a picture of Cordelia holding
V-Chan. Someone else had to have been there since Cordelia hadn't been back to the village.
Harminia ~ A {crazy} maid working for the Elder in the Village of Gray Wolves, When V-Chan first comes to the town she freaks out. Many spazzes later it's found thru a trick that she is the one who actually killed Elder Theodore.
They dress Kujou up in a strange outfit with a mask and have him push her over the edge so to speak, She believes Theodore came back from the dead and just spurts out that she did it. How?
Much like the situation in the open market with the pigeons, The gold coins were the distraction...
Harminia was hiding in the grandfather clock in Elder Theodore's room where the gold coins were also kept. When Theodore entered the room she swung open the door of the clock, gold coins flying everywhere. As he bent down to collect the coins she jumped from her hiding spot and plunged the dagger into his back.
After the attack she locked the door from the inside and hid away in the clock once again. Cordelia was the unlucky person to enter the room and find the body... and be blamed for the murder.
Why did she do it? The Oracle at the Mid-Summer Festival told her that she'd die in 20 years... at age 26. The Elder is the "Oracle" so... Somehow she believed killing him would stop her death. Of course no the current Elder has ordered her death, Telling Ambrose to chop her head off but... instead he lets her run.
Chaos ensues, Harminia sets many fires before attempting to run out of the village over the only drawbridge exit there was... Having chased her to the bridge V-Chan and the gang try to run across before the bridge is destroyed by the fire. Harminia goes after V-Chan... Kujou protects her...ladeeda... FightFight.. Harminia falls to her death and Kujou nearly does as well...
V-Chan catches him as he falls and... He climbs/gets pulled up. Where was Grevil, Ambrose and the Nun during the pulling up?
Harminia really did die at 26.
-The three men who came to the Village with Kujou and V-Chan ended up being thieves, At first they turned on each other...two died. One burned alive accidentally, Second was shot by the third but it was nearly blamed on the Elder.
V-Chan figured out they had been thieves who turned on each other and "saved" the Elder from whatever punishment needed to be done for him "killing" the man.
-The Nun Mildred was actually sent to spy on V-Chan and Kujou by Grevil, She had been calling him from time to time and that's why he showed up. He wanted to arrest the surviving thief but he apparently has no jurisdiction in the Village of Gray Wolves.
Village of Gray Wolves - Is actually the Kingdom of Seyrun, A legend about the Village says that what they lacked in physical strength they made up for with intelligence... Basically.
- Ambrose, A man from the Village of Gray Wolves who's fascinated by the outside world also ran across that bridge and left with V-Chan and her group.
TidBits.
When leaving the Village it shows the Magician from Episode 6, Standing on a cliff looking over the area with a short woman with long blonde hair. Cordelia of course.

Gosick 4 & 5
Episodes 4 & 5
These episodes were actually more enjoyable then the first set....
Grevil arrests Kujou for Murder!
Yes, That's how this starts out. After some minor panic he is allowed to go see Victorique for help, Along with Grevil....while handcuffed. There he recounts the story....
That morning the housemother Sofie asked him to go shopping, On the way he's talking to himself.... about women. He's a teenage boy of course he wants a girlfriend...a blonde haired one at that. Coming upon another road he hears the sound of a motorcycle, the rider whisks past him and... into over a brick wall. Pop! His head comes off... blood flowing off into the sky.
Long story short, There was a wire strung out across the path {connected to two trees} and when the rider came along it cut off his head. A woman with blonde hair and an injured hand did it {she cut herself on the wire}, Victorique informs Grevil of this who finds the woman and arrests her.
That was short.
New Student! Avril Bradley from England. There's another blonde for Kujou!
Well, By the end of the fifth episode it's found out that "Avril" isn't the real "Avril" she's actually the second Phantom Thief {that Grevil has been looking for} She comes to the Academy and takes Avril's place to get a rare stamp that Avril's grandfather {a famous adventurer} was sending to his granddaughter on a Post Card.
The real Avril and the Second Phantom Thief were on a train to the Academy together and the Phantom Thief overpowered Avril, tied her up and put her in the storehouse. Kujou and his teacher by chance found her... at first thinking she was the ghost of the storehouse.
Within that there was also a long dead man that fell out of the crypt, Turns out he was Maxim the first Phantom Thief... Every Spring he'd return to the school to hide his stolen treasures in the Crypt. The last time however... He was accidentally sealed inside the crypt before he could get out.
Of course it took Victorique to figure all of this stuff out, She even saves Kujou from the fake Avril while the two fought in the Library... She threw books down on her.
With all the twists and turns I didn't quite write everything here of course.... Really in the end it turned out pretty easy to figure out though....... The fake Avril was arrested and the real one was saved, Her grandfathers postcard was given to her and all is right once again.

Gosick 1 ~ 3
Almost dropped this show at episode two... It nearly put me to sleep.
Out of pure boredom I decided to watch episode three, then four and I am glad that I did.
Episodes 1 ~ 3
We meet....
Kazuya Kujou - He's the third {youngest} son of a Japanese solider, Having troubles living in his older brothers shadows he goes to study abroad at St. Marguerite.
In the Spring he arrives at the school, A very superstitious school with a lot of ghost stories.. "The traveler who comes in the Spring brings death with him" This saying and his dark hair/eyes grant him the nickname "Reaper" and most of the students tend to avoid him.
On his first day he goes to the Library and meets...
Victorique de Blois - A small, blonde haired girl who really looks like she came out of Rozen Maiden. She's a bit strange and almost always seems bored... Spending most {all?} of her time in the Library she's quite well read and intelligent.
The first few meetings with Kujou seemed a bit rocky but, After a couple mysteries the two of them have grown on each other.
By the third episode it's told that she and Grevil are siblings but, Only half. Her mother was a Mistress and described as a "Dangerous Woman", As a child of such Victorique was kept locked within the de Blois mansion for most of her young life and then sent off to school with orders not to leave campus.
Grevil de Blois - A detective, sorta..... He's really flaky and his hair makes him look as though he escaped from Shiki. He's quite annoying, When coming to the Library for Victorique's help he never talks "to" her... He talks to Kujou as if he were the one giving all the answers...
After "solving" the cases he of course takes all the credit for himself.
The First Mystery; The Maid Did It. Roxanne, an old fortune teller was murdered in her mansion. She lived there with her maid {Arabian} and manservant {Indian}, Her granddaughter came to stay the same night. Before the murder the maid was in her room, the manservant was outside... gun fire was heard and everyone went to the old woman's room.
The door was locked, The maid called out something but there was no answer... just as the manservant tried to use an axe on the door the granddaughter stopped him {she didn't want the door destroyed}. The maid pulled out her gun and shot the lock....
When the door was opened, The old woman had been shot thru her left eye. The window was locked and there were no weapons found in the room.
Victorique solves this pretty fast, No one understood Arabic so when the maid was calling out to Roxanne she was actually telling her to come to the door. The old woman was peeking out the keyhole when the maid shot the lock....
The Outcome; Grevil takes all the credit, gets rewarded {A Yacht}, Kujou confronts Grevil about it and... Grevil invites the two of them to go out on his gifted Yacht. With special permission from Grevil, Victorique is allowed to leave the school... Once she and Kujou meet Grevil at the Yacht he is called away on Police Business.
On the Yacht Victorique finds an invitation addressed to Roxanne, The invitation is to a dinner on a luxury liner nearby. And so they go...
Second Mystery; Going to the dinner with Roxanne's invitation, The "dinner" was drugged. Kujou and Victorique wake up locked in a waiting type room with ten other people.
Victorique is quick to point out that there were just nine other people in the dining room earlier, the two of them making it eleven and there are twelve people in the room. One of the people in the room is the culprit...
Everyone in the room believes that the ship is The Queen Berry that sunk ten years prior. The story is Ghosts raise the ship up on stormy nights, lure the living onto it and then it sinks again killing everyone on board.
The next events are pretty easy to guess, The lights go out, writing on the wall, they all run around and most everyone ends up dead. The reason behind it all however is not ghosts....
Outcome; Julie was the culprit, This was her way of getting even for the events that happened to her ten years ago on The Queen Berry. All the people on the ship were somehow connected to it...
The Queen Berry was a test ship of sorts.... Eleven orphans from around the world were taken and placed on the ship. Having a major language barrier they had troubles communicating with one another.
One of the kids was "murdered", Obviously since they were the only people on board it was one of them who did it. This lead to paranoia and... they started to turn on one another. Julie was one of the orphans, She found a "friend" on the ship amongst the chaos and she, the friend and two others made it safely to the ships Radio room.
What did they find? A bunch of men in suits and the "murdered" orphan quite alive. It was a test, The nationalities of the orphans that survived was French, Italian, American and Sauville {The fake dead guy was England.}.
Roxanne was also involved, with her fortune telling and running of the hares... She raised hares, released them and set the hunting dogs on them. The ones who survived she used to tell the future. The Orphans were the hares, England was the hunting dog, It was a way of fortune telling of who would survive in World War One.
Each of the surviving hares were given large sums of money, Julie couldn't get over what had happened on the ship and was in a sanitarium for many years. When she was released she used all the money to recreate the ship... and arrange everything else.
To top it off, Roxanne's maid was the "friend" that Julie made on the ship... She was taking her own revenge with shooting Roxanne.
Out of pure boredom I decided to watch episode three, then four and I am glad that I did.
