Musings while finally catching up to Destiny

First things first, I last left off at 15 and have been keep track with summaries so saying that I'm behind is quite the under-statement. Currently up to 23.

-I no longer hate Stellar. Her scene with Shinn got to me and now I find them an adorable couple and am deeply depressed, knowing their future.
-I no longer find Shinn to be an annoying, little prick. He's probably got the most personality of any of the Seed pilots and watching his relationship with Asuran grow is amusing. I really like the moments when he can be happy or when he's receiving nuggets of wisdom from Asuran.
-I still wish the show wouldn't flashback either the death of Shinn's family or things they've shown about five minutes ago. Same complaint goes for Impulse's need to assemble itself every battle.
-Lunamaria needs to get a clue. Meryn is just a waste of space.
-Meer is almost as bad as Flay. All she has going for her is the fact that she's not a bitch. Again, worse than Relena. She also needs to get a clue and realize that Asuran has other things on his mind than his "relationship" with Lacus.
-I no longer mock Heine. Sure, he's your typical bishounen, but he makes Asuran smile and he's friendly. I'll miss him.
-Watching these episodes in succession makes me less critical of their plot. When you don't have to wait forever for a new development, you stop caring if things aren't pristine everytime. It reminds me that I really need to find a way to marathon Seed. But missing the first half of the series is very off-puting. I think I enjoy GSeed Destiny more than the original or Gundam Wing because there's just more characters I care about. That could just mean that I need to pay as much attention to Seed as I've been paying to Destiny this marathon.
-Ray is still a wallflower and Gil is still very creepy.
-Neo is obviously more than meets the eye, and I'm developing a new interest in him.
-I have a feeling I won't be happy with Kira very much longer.

I blame the camp and recent LJ murmurings for nudging me back to this series, and I am very grateful. I need to bring back my crappy AsuKira icon.
