Gonna leave for one week or two, so I wish you a merry christmas and a happy new year, Mister Kusaja ! I hope you will have a lot of fun!

I see that I haven't replied to your last message, damn XD, and I wondered why you stopped to post on my profile, . It was my fault boouuuuh v___v


Btw, this reply will be a little long, so I'd understand if you have delays as well.

This one was not a little delay, but one as big as the grand canyon XD

Yes, I agree the animation is very high quality, higher than Code Geass, but then again it's a more important series for Sunrise/Bandai. Maybe it will look more "normal" in later episodes, but right now it's great.

The art quality is still very good so far. I've only seen a few scenes with bad arts. Like the scene in episode 11 when we can see Lasse and sumeragi who are talking.

The cape was a slightly funny (as well as the two-headed Gundam), but the way Exia came into the scene was neat.

But Exia is no match for the 00-Raiser . I loved that part in the last episode XD (but i didn't understand the weird scene after that setsuna activated the Trans AM O_o )

Lyle should act very differently, hopefully

Everyone was waiting for some FeldtsXLyle tidbits but we instead get a AnewXLyle scene XD. I wonder how it will turn.... Will he really fell in Love with Anew, who is an innovator?

The OP is good, but I'd like to see the ED as well...the first season had good music and this one should also continue the trend.

The ED is ok. but not Epic :3

It gets a little complicated, and I don't want to spoil too many things, but the general idea

I checked Xam'd a bit, and I plan to watch it later when I will have the time. I don't really like the design of Akiyuki in his "monster form" though :/ But it seems interesting ^___^

At least in the first case, you're better off not knowing...

KnL is "that" bad of a show XD? I checked a few arts of Casshern Sins and didn't really like it. In fact, it reminds me Megaman/Rockman

"Tytania, it's newer and might be different...but Legend of Galactic Heroes was a long OVA series (110 episodes based on novels)"

Wow that's long o_____o. I don't think I gonna watch it, but I saw many people who are fans of it, so it is intriguing... Thanks for the description, though . About Tytania, not really have the time to go watch some videos of it, gonna do that later XD

I remember reading some people complaining because the novels treated some events better than what the show did...but I'll try to see it, maybe I could like it if I'm in the mood, maybe not. If I do, I'll comment.

I didn't read the novels v____v, but this show is good (minus the ending of the second part who is forced, you will see), really !!!!!


Next time, I will not forgot to reply, I promise . See you soon!

Yep, a few days ago.

I agree with you, but who knows what they think about it. Hopefully it'll be picked up eventually.

Agreed again. True, it'll be a gradual process, but I bet he'll come to an understanding since the Celestial Being are essentially the good guys in this story.

Perhaps a select number of pilots is possible unless Louise was the only one applicable for this. I wonder what convinced her to join if she's suffering from trauma and also possibly accepting modifications to her body. Hahah, the sinister type of fabulous.

What shows are you planning to follow this season?

Well, I think they are more going with that he is dead, but since it is open I suppose that is true.

Well, that's good. I'm just fine with that.

Well, that's about the only time I think he could have used it now. We may never know though.

It could give us both a better sense of their character as well as answering some questions here and there.

True, I know. I suppose that is true though V Gundam may be one of the most depressing series out there. Oh, their clothing is completely ridiculous. I wonder if we'll ever see him pilot anything since it seems that from the extra materials, he was the pilot of 0 Gundam. I haven't heard anything. Who is that? And yeah, I could see Ali doing something like that at least.

Oh, neither will I. Just have to wonder who will do it.

Well, I expect him to be similar in some ways and different in others. He's smoking for one which is certainly different. It's an odd thing to happen.

Yeah, she confirmed that. And if I wanted to, I could make the poem mean to me that he could be alive even if I know that probably wasn't the intention.

Koshimizu seemed to confirm it is indeed up to us and that they left enough for either party to come up with something.

Yeah, but I would like to have seen Lelouch use it in the show towards her, but that seems doubtful.

There are lots of gaps of course and I would love more info on her relationship with Marianne or even just Marianne and Charles. Some more info on that would be great.

Oh, I agree. Just look at Ideon for the ultimate example. I still find it hilarious that he even was surprised that he could write something so depressing. I think a lot of people thought of Spike when Lockon's death scene occurred, but it suits Lockon even without being some sort of homage. I find it hilarious he is voiced by Amuro Ray, but yeah he is very creepy and his little helpers with their ridiculous names don't help. I'm thinking that too, but it depends on how things go with her. Hopefully he'll grow from it all though. I can see why you could forget about her. I think Ali is enough of a bastard though that he might actually forget killing her.

He'll probably get some quick death or something. I think pretty much everyone wants him to die.

I'm worried about Lyle though since he is basically the newest key character now and I worry about his development when this show doesn't exactly focus on that much in the first place.

I've been moderately busy with some work lately, so sorry for the delay.

It's ok mister Kusaja, and thanks for your PM

Let's see, I'm watching:

Gundam 00 (It's early, but the series seems to be starting well. What do you think?)
Xam'd: Lost Memories (Great, I hope it stays that way)
Kurogane no Linebarrels (Poor, I might drop this. Not very original. Taniguchi is somehow involved, but he's not the director )
Casshern Sins (Dark but retro, nice action...it's alright for now)

The first episode of S2 was really entertaining. The animation/image quality was top. Better than the best code geass episodes imo. I was amazed. The exia-terminator-look-a-like was great too XD. About Lyle, I don't know what to think. He is not Neil so he will act and think differently. I wonder what Feldt will think. I would rather prefer her to not fall in love with him "just" because he looks like Neil. I was talking about that (and about sumeragiXBilly) with Kr44n and Theron. I really wonder what will happen. The Gundam 00 seems great too. And I really liked the new OP too. All in all, I enjoyed it.

What is the story of Xam'd?

Don't know what Kurogane no Linebarrels and Casshern Sins are XD

CLANNAD -AFTER STORY- (I liked the original, even if it wasn't my favorite series or anything)
Ga-Rei Zero (Maybe, maybe not)

This anime is full of win, just because of the tomoyo/sunohara interactions, seriously XD

Don't know what Tytania and Legend of Galactic Heroes are.

I was a little interested in those three shows, especially Allison and Lillia (though I've heard the reviews are mixed)...I might try to marathon them later, now that they're over.

A&L was a very special show. You might like it or hate it. It has a particular atmosphere. Me I liked it a lot and I would like to read the novels now.

I will reply to your post, but go read the episode 25 thread or the generic discussion thread, koshimizu posted something interesting

Btw...are you watching any other anime series in particular now or in the near-future?

I started to watch:

- Gundam 00.
- To Aru Majutsu no Index

I plan to start to watch:

- Tales of the Abyss
- CLANNAD ~AFTER STORY~
- Tora Dora (not sure)
- Akane Iro ni Somaru Saka (not sure)

I finished to watch:

- World destruction (great)
- Allison and Lillia (very good)
- Ryoko's case files (good)

I suppose I should know that by now. The artwork itself isn't depressing though and I actually quite like the image. It's that message attached to it.

I know it is and that it may be up to us to decide which I am just fine with that.

I would think so. He hasn't used it since that one time though.


As would I since we might get a bit more insight as to what exactly her feelings on several matters were. For instance, maybe one of her time when she was head of the Geass Cult since she seemed to be remembered fondly there. And if there was one with Moe C.C., maybe they could deal with both how she is acting and how C.C. was acting in the World of C.

Well, it starts off similar as you said but goes into its own later on. Would that exactly be a bad thing now since Tomino isn't exactly like he was in the past? There were indeed several here and there, but he managed some rather nice and sad moments as well like Lockon's (I think of Spike whenever I see it) and others. I'd be more worried about her as well since she seems tied up with Ribbons which can't be a good thing. I think Saji is in a good opportunity to grow now and I rather hope moments like the one with him freaking out in episode 1 are gone. And he needs to learn that Ali killed his sister, though I'm not sure how he would find that out except from Ali himself.

I know someone with a pure pathological hatred for him. I would have to agree with hating the guy though, but you can't deny he fufills his role as an antagonist perfectly. The thing about him dying though is this: What sort of death wouldn't feel like it wasn't enough after all he did?

That one pic of Lelouch laying on C.C.'s lap with that sad message doesn't help either really.

I don't quite see how Lelouch dying really suits those themes since I can see ways him living can fufill the themes of this show just as much as him dying can. I know Taniguchi has expressed what he wants to show at certain points back in season 1 and I see ways him dying and living fufill them just fine no matter which it is.

I've considered the latter since I think that she considers such a thing important and would rather only someone like Lelouch know such a thing.

Still, I'm very far from unbiased...I just try to keep my preferences under control, even though sometimes I can act a little irrationally or also make stupid mistakes as well. In the end, in this case things turned out fine.

You know what I mean by biased XD. We are all biased. But what i call biased is when someone starts to become really annoying (like when someone insults other people in some way just because of a different opinion <_<)
