He had deadlines to meet in order to back-engineer a Humanform weapon for the Southern army.

Haru's sister was ideal for a transformation for whatever reason.


First off, the word "resolution"...

So why do people keep saying that Xam'd had a bittersweet ending? Haru and Akyuki got together in the end, no questions asked. The "nine-years of melancholy" felt pretty forced.

No questions...

By this point I just don't really care that much anymore. I do not think Bones is trying to be "deep" for shock-value or money. I do think they're being intentionally vague however since they'd...

No. I'm not saying it is necessarily intentional on their part.

If they also lack the skill to do what they promised, then it pretty much supports my point. Furthermore, not all the...

Bones is one of those studios that can convince you that they're all about total thematic unity and that their narratives are mature and should therefore make sense.

Personally, I don't think it...

Oh, okay, so you mean to say that she's mysterious, not weird. What's happening here is simple animal chemistry.

Nah, it's just that they try to read more into the plot than is actually there.

Which is still something I'm blaming on Bones.

They didn't actually do anything. Bones gave the illusion that they did.

Or to put it simply: A wizard did it.

A somewhat longer answer:
Akiyuki lost his identity so the Emperor could gain...

Pshaw.

Nakiami isn't weird. She's just unusually mature and assertive for her age. So if anything, your tastes are predictable and your attraction inevitable.

I don't regard Eureka Seven as a masterpiece since it suffers from some of the same problems as Xam'd. It just suffers from far fewer of those same kinds of problems. Eureka Seven deserves...

That is . . . a rather highly specific source of influence. I think it's more accurate to say that Miyazaki had a wide range of influences. He is as much a writer as he is an animator. So it...

All I know is that the Emperor was rambling stock "nihilism" lines and cogitating about wanting a distinct foe to take it out on.

Eh, can't say I'd recommend it. Fate/Stay Night felt very much like a video game franchise anime. You get bonus points for spotting the tsundere and Shounen of Justice in episode one. So cliché. ...

Wait? When did Fuu ever crush on Mugen? I always got the whole "brother/sister" vibe from the two of them. She crushed on Jin, but for the most part, Jin is married to his sword.
