I went to this thread after a month's hiatus from AS because of the title: Simoun. What instantly came to my mind was a revolutionary and filibusterer ... other Filipinos can relate to who I mean.
(to Filipinos:
Who really likes Noli me Tangere over El Filibusterismo? EF is waaay better ... and a white-haired bad@ss jeweler somewhat reminds me of Ukitake as Simoun ... )
But as it's a
yuri series ... I'm saying goodbye to this story ...
