Damn You Thing 2!!!!

[sisabet]

Thanks to the Anime vidshow and flummery's links to the vids and me downloading them and showing them to the boy earlier today...

I am now watching Neon Genesis Evangelion. All I am saying is that chick better have a big German voice or I will be sorely disappointed. The Boy is quite excited and has been singing "I Wish I Was A Lesbian" all day.

Look at what you have wrought Thing 2!! LOOK!

Tonight he promises to watch X with me (thanks boniblithe and explain what is going on. I watched the first ep alone and decided I needed help. Hey it turns out those were flash-forwards - not plot points I needed to follow! (first impression - day-am, Anime moves fast).

Also Kill Bill 2. Cause I need some real people.

You must watch Cowboy Bebop. Seriously. Less with the apocalyptic battles, but plenty of the former-comrades-now-enemies AAAAAAANGST. Also, in case you're not so much down with the subtitles, it has one of the best dubbing jobs ever.

(You must love a show with a character named Vicious. Yes.)

[sisabet.livejournal.com]

No Bebop. It would make me sad. NO!!!

HAVEN'T I BEEN THROUGH ENOUGH FOR YOU PEOPLE????

DID YOU NOT SEE THE END OF ANGEL???

No more character death, not for me.

[wrenlet.livejournal.com]

Oh. Well.

... I'm trying to think of an anime without character death. Uhm.

[sisabet.livejournal.com]

Well - a character that I would like...

[wrenlet.livejournal.com]

Hmm.

.... Utena! 'Cause none of the... well... I can't tell you why it doesn't count but it doesn't. Uhm. There :)

[permetaform]

ah. the character death issue.

er.

well, he didn't really die?

If you never see it, didn't really happen, eh?

[permetaform]

THOU SHALT BE SUCKED IN!!! ::cackles madly::

[permetaform]

oh, I echo the pimp for Cowboy Bebop and also? Trigun, so you can beta my future vids...::beams::

[sisabet.livejournal.com]

The boy loves Trigun. Just saying.

Also - no Bebop. NONE.

[permetaform]

aww, so you're not sucked in. ::pouts:: ah well, is all good.

as for the Bebop? Whyyyyy? There's angst! There's opera! There's silliness!

There's a dog!

[wrenlet.livejournal.com]

There's a Gren!

[sisabet.livejournal.com]

There is a dead lead.

[permetaform]

...he's sleeping!

(1) X is better with subtitles than with the dub. I'm just saying.

(2) Did you watch Episode 1 or Episode 0? Oh, I think you watched Episode 0. Oh, dear. Don't worry. Episode 1 is better.

Gundam SEED is out on DVD now

[aexia.livejournal.com]

Unedited and the dub ain't bad either.

I couldn't bear to watch the Cartoon Network version given how badly they were cutting it up.

I was worried that even the DVD dub might be tamed down. Nope. When I heard Fllaga exclaim "Oh shit!", I knew all was right in the world.

[boniblithe.livejournal.com]

If the ep you watched of X was a comatose long-haired weepy fellow wandering around and talking vaguely about everything that's going to happen in the future, do not despair. That's Ep 0, which is like a prequel to the actual story, and more of a teaser for fans who already know the series from the manga to get them psyched for the anime.

I am excited for you to watch it, just because I need someone else for Mely to bother to talk to about it :)

[coffeeandink.livejournal.com]

Hrmph.

[flummery.livejournal.com]

MUAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

My work here is done.

Okay, maybe not yet. But really. Wasn't she a vicious little girl? How could you not like that?
