She tripped over and it triggered her hyper-asthma and that's why she's dying in the ICU.

The Media Maidenz tackle episodes 11 and 12 of Selector Spread Wixoss! After months, they have done the impossible and completed the second anime club. OR HAVE THEY? Join us as we discover the mysteries and see whether our theories held up. Is Ulith the ultimate evil? Is Mayu god? Does Hitoe get to do anything? Will Mari Okada make us squirm and suffer with more twin incest romance? There's only one way to find out.

Thanks so much to everyone who has listened to all of this. We could not do this without your support and appreciation.

If you're here: you've made the appropriate Selection.
