Yah, I'm done being wanky now. Fairweather fans just make me sad. I guess it's because I engage in fandom in two ways: active fan or I just like. Most series I just like. But when I'm an active fan, it usually takes a HUGE collapsing of plot or total disregard to a character's "true self" to make me ditch them. I talked about leaving WR all the time when I heard Toboe was going to die, and even when he did, I had no choice but to hold out until the end. Almost every series that I've truly liked that I've been "oh I'll drop it if they kill __," I rarely do it. Ah well.
Hey, did anyone else notice that at the end of 22 when they were showing the clips of the favorite scenes, the Gawain/Lancelot OTP scene won over both the love confession and Suzaku's adorable "yes your highness" at the end of 20. This teaches me the Japanese are really gay for their mecha. Don't take that offensively. I just think "gay" works better than "in love," given the context of Gawain and Lancelot.
( So I've been trying to think of why Naruto's happy crack doesn't please me as much as it does everyone else. Sure, it's WTF and ZOMG ghei. )
ETA: The fandom joke about Sasuke just trying to rival his brother by picking up his own shark-man and Akatsuki actually makes me feel better about the recent developments. But what will Sasuke call his new harem?
