always a pleasure!
and it seems i haven't shared the ripped dramas here yet (just #7), so here they are! Spoiler for Audio Dramas Only:
here's this week's radio broadcast, in case anyone's interested Innocent Venus Radio 09 (40.9 MB) FLEET were guests. re: Dogs---no word yet on the 3rd volume, no? i think the 2nd just got released... last year? so maybe two or three more years..? ._. LOL, is there a thread for Dogs anywhere? XD i think there's going to be something that will link Naoto and Heine XP Jin really looks like the charismatic type. he has won Jo's loyalty, Sana's trust, and even Toraji's, Sana's father and the skeptical grandfather's favor (sort of). but you're right about a lot of things, i also thought that Jin was someone Jo thought could match up to him. he might've thought that Jin was a competent rival that he simply could not "chicken down" on, to use the term lightly. but more importantly, is how he feels and appreciates being respected by Jin.

Wow... 5 episodes and I am already totally hooked. It's been a long while since i was able to watch five episodes of an anime without skipping anything (I usually skim most anime). I hope the quality keeps up.
Sana already has a crush on Jin, it's pretty cute, even if I hate pedophilia. Jo is awsome too, of course. I love all the characters in this show so far, even the crazy Chinese guy. |

Dernhelm: wah, thank you~~ *downloads like mad*
(As for Dogs, it's still on its first volume. The series was restarted in Ultra Jump last autumn, and so the first volume was reissued around that time. As far as I know -sadly I've no access to UJ magazines so I have to rely on the official site for info- it's been appearing somewhat irregularly in UJ, so I guess there's not enough chapters yet for a second volume. According to the UJ official site, the story finally reveals something about Giovanni and Heine's backstory... gah, I really want to read it. >_>) Quote:

But then again... there's only an 8 years difference. It's not all that bad if Sana is older. |

*i'ma pm you about something re: Dogs

as much as i hate to say it, he looks something like a puppet now, or a bodyguard or dog following his master's orders without question or throwing himself into danger so as to protect him, more than as a real friend. Jo, being the type that rarely speaks, it's all up to Jin to show us (his side of) the story of this peculiar trust.

i thought i heard them say it's back tomorrow? or at least it felt like it.
some interesting stuff that happened in this drama episode, it was the kidnapping scene on the plane. me and my friends are puzzled whether it was a split second decision for Jin for him and Jo to turn their backs on Phantom, wherein they didn't have time to notify Nobuto. Spoiler:

Yes, episode 6 is supposed to air today... and apparently in this episode Jou will talk! xD;;; Nojima sounded so enthusiastic. xD (But then, they've been joking about Jou's reticence since the beginning.)
As for the radio drama, I could only listen to it when I was already half-asleep so I probably didn't get everything right, but Spoiler:

whoa... Jin... looks like there really is something more to him. something that might not be so pleasant after all. >_<
edit: great, this is making me think/assume/theorize a lot. Spoiler:

Ok, I've done the final audio drama writeup. It sheds light on some things, yet at the same time, it doesn't really answer the questions we want answered. The problem is that the dramas are from Vikro's point of view, and she doesn't know anything! It's all still very ambiguous...

final!??? did they say it's the last audio drama there will be?
edit: i take it back. it makes sense. it's the last time the army gets to document their movements, which Vikro i think is charged with. hopefully there will be a "second leg" which will change POV's this time. oh no, don't tell me it'll be Gora if that's the case. XP

As for ep 6, it was cheesy in many different ways but it was fun, as usual. Except, Jou didn't talk after all, dammit. xD;;; (Or did they promise he'd talk in another ep? I must've been almost asleep at that point...) Spoiler:

Feels good to return watching this series after it's relative short hiatus.
The title says it all. The theme for this episode that regarding how well organized or put into effective combat strategies, small groups are fodder to the bigger powers that employ powerhouses using a superior technology (i.e. Gladiators, Phantom elite soldiers) The flip side of the coin is that the blood-hounds and foot soldiers under the ministry of the bigger power can never escape the inevitable fate- being the expendable pawns as a means to attain an end. Spoiler:
On the other hand, it causes a devastating trauma of grief and contempt on the other side that cares just to live on an ordinary life with their loved ones. Spoiler:
Moreover, I have read everyones' posts regarding Jin stubborn disposition to continue onwards with his vengeance, and his yet ambiguous intentions towards Sana. Spoiler:
Lastly, Jo. He might not had talked but he feels and remembers. He's a soldier but not an automated machine without soul and neither a blood hound that lusts for carnage. |

lol, i refuse to say that it was a kiss. i think it was an affectionate nuzzle more than anything.
and... what else :\ EDIT: Chinran's actually put on some pretty cool and slick martial art moves back there. he might win me over just for that XD and LMAO, a friend made me notice that quite on the contrary, Jo didn't talk AT ALL. XDDDDD; i think he had the most lines in the next episode preview, lolol. (he's being paid big, just to "gasp" XDDD)
