Read Gawain the Green Knight, The Epic Saga, Ulster Cycle, and the Lancelot-Holy Grail cycle. They are all worth a read. All classic (...mythology. I excel in mythology.)
... "A judgement without standards does not exist. If that is the case, who decides these standards?" Sounds like the speaker is atheistic.  |
...Sorry for the over-the-top reaction. Even I regretted it after I posted it. (I just wish they could have chosen someone besides Gino to reuse in this manga, as he isn't high on my list of favorites. Except for the Tristan Divider, which I agree was awesome.)
...Anyway, I've finished the translation of the Character descriptions, though I really hope that a better translator will do these in the near future; I'm not exactly satisfied with how I did it, but it's the best I could come up with. Hopefully it doesn't ruin your expectations TOO much.

...I know, it isn't the best, but it does shed some light on a few things. First is obviously that C.C. is APPARENTLY working for the villain here and is also, get this, working for CHRISTIANITY. (I feel light-headed from the utter irony of that. Although...*imagines C.C. as a nun*...Nah, that's asking for too much.) Also, the Lelouch-lookalike remains shrouded in mystery, though we have confirmed that he has Lelouch's "fully developed" Geass and apparently is connected to Renya somehow. (I sense endless, and heated, speculation in the future...)
I guess that's it for today. Now I can only wait quietly for the raws, and then the scanlation, to come up...IS IT HERE YET?! (Sorry, couldn't resist...
)
