Random thought of the day

Okay. I'm six eps into Evangelion and I have to say one thing:

Can we please stop seeing Shinji and pals in the nude? Come on, the kid's fourteen. There's something indecent about that. Give him a couple years.

The series is more engaging than I would otherwise have thought. The one ep [livejournal.com profile] littlelicks showed at Anime Weekend I didn't grab me that much - "ah, another giant robot mecha series, yada yada yada." But, despite Shinji being a colossal whiner, the series is interesting and the English dub is surprisingly good (the price one pays for renting from the video store.)

On that note the "Look! Kirby!" line from "This is Otakudom" keeps getting funnier and funnier.

And "This is Greenwood" is odd. Shounen-ai, anyone? Ah well, for six eps total, it's worth the time investment to say I've seen it.

Not in the right mood these days for "El Hazard." Meh.

Thus concludes the random anime talk.

Uh oh. See, here's the thing:

buttnaked Vash: Arafel cheers and throws underwear. Why? The guy is of age by a century.

buttnaked Shinji: Arafel feels like a pervert.

Symbolic or not, we still do the O_o. :)

Your comment about mecha animes is correct so far! We'll see how the rest of the series goes...

I think you missed my point, which was that symbolic or not, I feel like a pervo watching fourteen-year-olds run around in the buff.

So Shinji really IS a little wanker? *snark*

Just wait, it gets BEEEEEETTTTEEEEEER. *cackle* I really need to see the movies. Oh, and warning in advance, towards episode 20, make sure you start to duck tape your brain inside your head, you don't want it leaking out of your ears. ^_^

El Hazard definitely is a series ya gotta be in the mood for. I think it's because it's an OVA, so the episodes pretty much run together. You have to be in the mood to sit for 4 hours and watch. :)

Maybeso... also, I had a feeling there was going to be some gender confusion, and I'm just not in the mood for that. There's little that I'll watch for 4 hours straight.

Says "Orin the Perv":

Well, I am a pervert and I say 14 is plenty old enough depending upon the person. Neener. *grin*
