Topic title fixed ^^ Anybody doesn't want to get possible spoilers on this series, read no further! And you're lucky to have seen this far; I've been unable to download an uncorrupted version of MO19, to the point that I may have to get a copy posted to me.
Reito: His name is Rado now that he's a cyborg; he corrects Youko when she calls him Reito. Haven't seen much of him or Midori's gang, but they're pretty interesting; is it just me, or are their design based on chess pieces?
Chie! I love the transformation her character's undergone, to a complete casanova, complete with the famous blue rose (aoi=blue in Japanese?) which she offers to Aoi. But I expect some fall-out from episode 19
Nao: I think Nao may be one character who's undergone one of the largest character changes, besides Mashiro. Although she tries to appear tough, self-centred and disinterested, I think she does have her kouhais best interests at heart, and she's often there at just the right time to help or save someone. Her promotion to Pillar didn't surprise me at all.
Shizuru: pwns your soul
I love her new character, very flirty when she wants to be, as intelligent as her HiME counterpart, but no longer focused purely on Natsuki
Natsuki: still just the butt of the joke. The Kruboner is astonishingly lame compared to the old Kuga, who at least kicked ass sometimes, but old loyalty keeps me hoping for some late redemption.
Miyu's Vampire Hunter D look never fails to amuse me. It's pretty interesting to see Miyu in a possibly-friendly role this time around, and I'd agree that she is probably the same M.I.Y.U. from Mai HiME.
Arika alternates between annoying me and making me smile. Nina looks like the lovechild of Shizuru and Natsuki. The other new characters made so much impression on me that I barely remember them.
I'm not nearly as into this series as I was with HiME, and I'm seriously wondering about recent plot developments, but as long as they keep Mai and Tate out of this one, I'll be happy. With everything except some costume designs. *coughcoughAkiracough*
Keep Mai out, who am I kidding? -_-;;
Yay for spoiler tags

Just because it's in the thesaurus doesn't mean it's a good idea.
And why isn't 'dethesaurisation' in the dictionary?
