Ok IRIS lost a bit of its initial lustre as the episodes flew by. It is still very interesting and engaging but there are so many intrigues and a quick fast forward (to first 6 months and then another 3 months) that it is not that fun anymore. Still it is a decent show and I hope that it will pick up a bit in the next episodes.
So far our hero and heroine both think the other dead and feel miserable. Our hero has lost another loved one (Yuki, the cute Japanese school girl) due to his unwilling part in one of the intrigues (I hope that they will all unite at some point) And now he and the North Korean assassin decided to join N.Korean intelligence to get his revenge on NSS. I'm hoping that this is a trick to uncover IRIS -which we have found out is a top secret organisation that benefits from selling weapons to countries that have tension between them, IRIS readily provides tension when there is none- otherwise it is too stupid a plan. At the end of episode IX we are treated a scene where NSS is busting a N.Korean terrorist cell (which is actually a group of North Korean spies on a mission in Seoul) which our hero is a part of.
Meanwhile The Tenant of Wildfell Hall is amazingly going great. I like the prose so much that even though this is not a book I'm eager to read without every stopping, I grew more fond of it than I probably should have.
