Britannians totally do it better

GameFAQs is at it again with their crack of awesome. I'd join but I'm lazy. I need to work on my Episode 21 post so that craves discussion. Maybe after I watch 21 again and decide what to hit as my highlights. My take is probably going to be just as messed up as the episode, with me WTFing at the character's stupidity for the first half of the episode and then wibbling for them near the end. More of my FL seriously need to watch Geass so I can chat about it on AIM. I have to haul aside my brother and bug him about it, and believe me, he no longer cares. It's not fair. All these writers and whatnot getting into the series and still nobody I converse with on a regular period. Were it not for the Net, I'd explode. Also, what's with people adding the e to the end of his name?

Anyway, the great GameFAQs quotes of the moment:

-"Lelouch needs some sort of weapon if he covers up his eye.

*Slot slides open*

*Shoots Schneizel with a laser*"

-"GameFAQs will protect Lulu! (or at the very least I will) With all our strength! Let's start folding cranes!"

-"Season 2, Lelouche starts kicking puppies.

Believe it!!!!"


Oh yeah, I'm going to go out and be social for St. Paddy's Day as soon as I finish catching up on HikaGo and the Death Note movie.



EDIT: Somebody call me when Naruto starts making sense again. I could go on about the duality of all the statements Sasuke makes and Kishi's hype about the ultimate secret and blah blah blah but you know what? I'm pissed. I was hoping for something really stunning to come out of the Oro vs. Sasuke fight and this is what I get? Even Sasuke alive fails to impress me. Kishi, I will trust your judgment, but until you prove yourself sane and worthy again, you will get no love from me. Nor will your precious uber-god Sasuke. I only have time for obsessions that don't disappoint me. Are you listening, Sunrise?

Checkmate, Raito.

Finally saw the Death Note 2 movie. While lacking in the Mello or Near department, it was infinitely better than the first movie. And from what I've heard of the latter half of the series, I'd argue it was better handled than the manga itself. I'm much more in love with movie!L than I am with Light. I think it's just the choice of Light's actor. He's good; he's just hard to really accept as Light. That and L's speech about wanting to save Light almost made me cry. The only real complaint I have with the second movie is that the ending was a bit draggy, but other than that they essentially improved everything I hated about the midpoint of the series. They even reworked the third Kira into something that was actually interesting. Light's ranting near the end annoyed me, mostly because the whole while he's trying to convince everyone (and possibly himself) that everything he does is to make the world a better place and that he has done much to decrease the crimes/killings in this world. But he's still calling himself a god. I honestly believe that while Light might posture at having good intentions, when you get right down to it, it's all about the feeling of power. Light enjoys having the power to save the world since he can just as easily destroy it. Not exactly a neutral shinigami. L's actor was superb as usual and ultra adorable when he flirted with Misa or bantered with Light. Yes, this is the way Death Note should have been done. I wonder what route the anime will take; I need to check up on that. Also, Ryuk... a bit of a dick there.

quebelly, I think you might like this one. But first we're going to need to find a sub that can actually be read.
