Picspam - DOGS: Bullets and Carnage. Because the manga is so damn gorgeous.

[darkenedsakura]

Instead of working enough on my essay, what I’ve been doing in the past two days is checking out more series. Because I’m weak-willed, okay. D: And because…well. DOGS is an amazing series, and. Yes. It’s distracting and so very shiny. >_

Edit: Ahahahahahahaha.

Surfing the Dogs comm you linked to, and found something you should really see, if you haven't already.

Drama CD seiyuu list.
Heine = Sakurai Takahiro (Cloud from FFVII AC, Kira from Bleach, Kanda from D.Gray-Man)
Badou = Ishida Akira (Hakkai from Saiyuki, Eyes from Spiral, Chrno from Chrno Crusade)
Naoto = Itou Shizuka (Himawari from xxxHolic, Rinali from D.Gray-Man, Wilhelmina Carmel from Shakugan no Shana)

[darkenedsakura]

Nope, I already knew that. Why's Linali so important? Sakurai voices Kanda, so. Personally, I don't like any of the DGM voices, but that doesn't have to affect the DOGS cast. Haine should be awesome. Though...hm, I can't imagine Linali's VA as Naoto's. Ergh. :\

...But...AHA. I -knew- I saw Ishida Akira's name on the list! I'll definitely get Dex interested in this now. Though, as Badou...hm. Oh well, might as well see how it goes.

And yeah, the manga's up to chapter 20 now. Well, I'm sure that more chapters are out, but the scanlator tends to release them in batches. So it'll probably be a few more months before more chapters come out. Where did you read to, 12?

*needs some Heine and Badou icons*

[rae00]

Ah, forgot to bold his. But meh, Kanda. Apparently I never like the bad-boy characters - again, probably 'cause I'm supposed to like them. Huh; neither can I. But then, y'never know.

Eh, you might. Problem is, it's only for a drama CD right now, I think. Or have they planned an anime without my knowledge?

Don't remember what I got to. XD; I'd have to check my folder - if I haven't deleted it. *is shot*

[darkenedsakura]

Oh, so I was supposed to notice the DGM? For what reason? XD;;; I mean, I know quite a few of those series on the list. And eh, I don't like Kanda. He's just boring. He's all angsty and annoying without a reason, and then he just drops off and disappears and then that thing that happens in the late 90s in the manga and...zomg. But characters like Natsume and Haine and Allen are infinitely interesting. But I still don't understand why you wouldn't like cool characters simply because you think you were supposed to have liked them. I'd understand if you didn't like them because they're not your type, but...O_o;;

Yeah, only a drama CD right now. There's no way they could pull of an anime - they don't have nearly enough material for one yet. Even if they put in DOGS vol.1, Hardcore Twins, and Bullets and Carnage together.

*shoots >:[* But, eh. I'm always enchanted by these kinds of universes and characters, and I can see where you wouldn't be. Bet you're not into the comic book series/movies.

[rae00]

Haven't been following the manga-*is shot*-*revives long enough to finish*-and I'm behind on the anime. *is shot again* *sighs and just resigns self to staying dead* But I actually have plans to get somewhere on the latter, so d'you know about when 90 is in the anime?

They aren't. I guess. But then I don't really have a type. Maybe "dangerous women," or "girls with guns." XD But they have to be intelligent and not just dangerous; and...I'm not really sure. I mean, you'd think with those criteria I'd love most of the chars in "Gunslinger Girl," but I don't, really; I just like them. Guess I'm looking for maturity, too, and...But then we're back to my LJ post about significant others - I'm looking for myself, it seems. *grins wryly

[darkenedsakura]

*shoots* Well actually, I've fallen a little behind also. I always do this when the series is ongoing. But eh the anime's trash don't watch it when you could be reading the manga >:[ So yeah, I have no idea where the 90s are in the anime. They have too much crap filler anyway

[rae00]

"A little". Ahahaha. Ha. Yeah. See, I'm like ten episodes behind on the anime, which means the manga...*sweatdrops*

Uh, no. I don't like characters for that reason - I just dislike them for the reverse. XD; Y'know? Triela was probably my favorite, too. With maybe Rico for close second. (I have a hard time keeping the handlers straight anyway; meh.) Yeah...

XD

I'll...take your word for it. *has a bunch of stuff to do and watch already*

[darkenedsakura]

Trust me. The anime...urrrrrrrrrrrrgh. I can't say anything. *fumes* The manga's better, and it's faster to read manga. And yes. Besides, I don't think that the anime will catch up to the manga when it ends, so you'll have to read it anyway. Manga canon is better than anime filler shit.

But you see? That's exactly the same thing. *sweatdrops*

I'm not surprised - remember, you already told me that you're not into live action stuff. XD

[rae00]

*snickers* *will continue watching the anime anyway*

They aren't the same. O_o They're two separate things that just happen to be opposites. One doesn't necessarily mean the other, if that's what you're saying. Or can you unbreak an egg?

Yup. XD

[darkenedsakura]

.............DDDDDDDDD: !! 1!

They're not really the opposites like breaking and not breaking an egg. Both of them are fueled by you not wanting to 'conform', in a sense. XD; Or that's how I see it because how can you -not- like Natsume and Haine and the rest. D:

[rae00]

XDDDDDD *pats*

True enough, I guess. They're just not as tied together as you make them out to be. *shrugs*

Ahahaha. "Hell hath no fury like a lone fangirl." Or something. XD *is shot - multiple times* ...Ow. But yeah. I don't really dislike them; it's just that they don't reach through the pages and grab me. *shrugs again*

[darkenedsakura]

...Well, I guess it's your loss. Unless they do something funky in the canon, in which case I'll get mad. *grumbles*

I was just trying to discreetly point out how unreasonable you're being for the sake of nonconformity or whatever it is. :D

You're just unenthusiastic. *brushes aside* Think of it this way - I'll never be like one of those fangirls. *shuddershuddershudder* But eh. That's really too bad. D: D: D:

D:

...Come to think of it, is Haibara the only character that's both of our favorites? I know that we typically like the same characters, but now I'm having a memory blank. Especially if you don't like those types of guys in series.

[rae00]

Hahahahaha. I'll probably get around to the manga eventually, but I'm so far behind at just about everything right now...*shrugs helplessly*

Reminds me of that quote, somewhere, about how most Americans conform to individuality. XD But no, I'm not chosing characters based on nonconformity. I'm just being unreasonable, period. XDD

Mm-hm...

Uh, she might be. Since your list is probably more managable than mine: Who're your favorites?

[darkenedsakura]

........Yet you'd rather watch the anime, which would take more time. That makes no sense.

True, you are being unreasonable, but you said so yourself at one point to me, that you don't like these characters precisely because they're supposed to be so likable/most people like them. You really are unreasonable. D:

Thanks. A lot.

Uhhhhhhhhh. This would be a long list. Uhm, hm. Let's see. DGM - Allen, Linali. GA - Natsume, Tsubasa, Misaki. DC - Haibara. Suzumiya Haruhi - oh, this is hard. Kyon, Haruhi, and Koizumi all tied. Bleach - Rukia, Hitsugaya, Yoruichi. FMA - Riza, Roy. DN Angel - Satoshi, Dark. WHR - Karasuma, Sakaki. CCS - Syaoran, Yue. Tsukihime - Arcueid. Ouran - Kaoru, Hikaru, Haruhi. Wolf's Rain - Blue, Kiba. GitS - the Major. DOGS - Haine, Naoto. FE - Soren, Zihark, Mia. ToS - Sheena, Kratos, Raine. I'll just leave that list at that for now.

[rae00]

Naw. I haven't really been watching the anime either. XD; *is like ten eps behind* 'Sides, the main reason I'm watching it is 'cause I don't want to fall behind on the downloads (they're a pain to pick up again, as you probably know) but they take up space. And I like to watch things before I transfer them from laptop an external, 'cause I don't usually go back to the externals.

*rolls eyes* You're taking this too seriously.

(I need an mp3 of me saying that, or something. XD;)

Uh...Huh. More matches than I'd think.

DGM, DC (obviously), Bleach (don't like Hitsu as much as you seem to, but), FMA, DNA (sorta; I never really got that far with the series), Tsukihime, WR, GitS, DOGS, FE (where'd Neph go? O_o), and ToS.

But not GA, for SH I liked Yuki better than all of 'em combined-*ducks*-WHR I liked Robin and, to some extent, Amon; and for Ouran I like Haruhi and Kyoya. (Not necessarily together. And Kyoya/Tamaki makes my eyebrow twitch.)

Ahaha. Ha. You think your list is long. XD; *doesn't even want to contemplate her own*

[darkenedsakura]

I'm harping on things in an effort to get you to change your mind. Unfortunately, you're too obstinate for that. D:

Haha, so you thought that the chars that we both liked were more exceptions rather than commonalities? And do you like -anyone- in GA? Don't bother watching DNAngel, either. And so I forgot Nephenee. There are too many awesome people in FE to keep track of. To be honest, Yuki doesn't interest me, though by far Asahina's my least favorite, even considering the later novels. I think it's because of all the fic that I'm not as fond of Amon and Robin. And everyone thought I'd like Kyouya and Haruhi the most...and then I ended up liking the twins. So I defied everyone in that aspect, I guess.
