The comments on this post were cute. Specifically, though, I’d like to commend Higevs, Xerox, and lKnight for taking the bait. My mention of “magnum opus” was deliberately provocative, utterly random, though not without careful forethought and really a point I meant to expand on in this post; it was interesting, other post comments [...]
What I mean by “the point of adaptations” isn’t “the point where adaptations start sucking”, but more of like “what is the point of adaptations?” After all, regardless of how good or bad an adaptation will be, you’ll always have the grassroots insisting on the superiority of the original. The fanbase is fickle and insatiable, [...]
Now that the two main first impressions posts are over, I guess I can start to slack off or something. There isn’t a whole lot that I’m expecting in the shounen, action-packed side, but that might be due to how I don’t carry a lot of expectations with me when I watch new shows, unless [...]
If there was one fault I could attribute to the first season now that it’s all over, it would have to be the cliffhangers, assuming that while some cliffhangers are indeed faults, not all faults are cliffhangers. One day on IRC amidst the usual verbal diarrhoea TJ of Riuva fame wondered aloud if Code Geass [...]
There’s been a smile on my face this morning ever since the last few minutes of StrikerS 12, and it lasted all the way till breakfast and two episodes of Gigantic Formula; think of it like Lelouch triumphant in his Gawain, or Light grinning in his helicopter, both wearing rictuses of victory. It’s immensely gratifying [...]
Go on, tell me. Between the lack of coverage and no one making enough noise about it this would be the most underrated and overlooked mecha of the season, if you ask me. If Bokuranos the sullen, brooding adolescent with black eyeliner and a bad hairdo, and Lucky Star Idolmaster Xenoglossias the annoying sister on [...]
About the title. This is to save some of you the effort of reading through this: there isn’t any, at least not with respects to Code Geass — if you’re one of those who think it is, excuse me while I pause to laugh and make fun of your crap anime that you think is [...]
Note to self: watch the damn thing as soon as it comes out. This would’ve been up way earlier had it not been for the other series I’ve been trying to sit through. See previous post for details. Also, there’s a spoiler after the cut — hell, just assume all Bokurano posts from now on [...]
“TH- THIS IS MY CHAIR! IT WAS MADE FOR ME!”
So I presume this is going to be like Evangelion, but with more character development? Hold on, this is NGE we’re talking about here. As long as the monologues aren’t limited exclusively to abstract images and there’s none of that ‘intelligent’ symbolism I guess I’ll survive. [...]
