oh homoerotic tension you ARE killing me !
-- As a french how could I not react to the Zinedine Zidane Case? I'm not glorifying his gesture. I'm even annoyed people find he was right to be violent. He deserved his red card because he was not fighting racism or his family honor. He was just angry because he was called a fag. Such rage for nothing... repression anyone ?
On a total swallow side, I just don't get how Football-RPS is not writing itself when you have that kind of quote "If you really want my shirt I WILL give it to you afterward". Someone write me a zizou/materazzi hate fic, PLZ THX BYE.
-- Rumiko Takahashi totally won me back with Inuyasha's last chapters. She's closing one by one each character storyline and if the conclusions are not unexpected they are nevertheless moving. I couldn't care less about Kouga but Kikyou got a conclusion and Sesshoumaru is about to have one too.
To me Kikyou was, is the soul of the story. If it wasn't for her, Inuyasha's plot would be pointless. Her story was poignant because she carried with her a sense of lost she couldn't overcome. On contrary of other characters you knew her road was a dead end, literally. Her job cost her everything from her youth to her life and even in death she was denied peace. She couldn't even pretend to feel nostalgia since she never formed a couple with Inuyasha.
I love how at first she was different from the lead characters. She was ruthless and depict as selfish through what seem a sadistic behavior. But later on, Takahashi started her "you're all gonna love her now or I end you" plan by making Kikyou taking care of old soldiers, young peasants and random lost children.
my top 5 kikyou scenes :
- "Don't call my name" (Chp 48)
- "When I was alive... I had wanted to do this" (Chp 76)
- "Because I didn't believe in Kikyou..." (Chp 78)
- "I won't give your life, to the likes of Naraku" (Chp 153)
- "To cry over wanting to live, is not shameful"(Chp 271)
and one I didn't include in the top 5 because it's anime only.
- I always associate "My Will" with Kikyou alone wandering in the forest aimlessly. Every time I'm listening to that song, it breaks my heart in tiny thousand pieces.
If the last chapter is the beginning of the last big arc about Sesshoumaru/Rin, Well it does kick the anime ass because it sounds much more interesting than episode 162. Is it next week yet ?
Reading the last chapter, I bet that if Sesshoumaru's parents were together at one time, she was the one who left, fed up with his personality. Why does the fandom see Inuyasha and Sesshoumaru's father as a kind loving guy ? It's not because Inuyasha got the bigger sword that he's the favorite child of the household. It's more like Inupapa pitied Inuyasha's weakness and gave him a big gun without a howto guide instead of a teddy bear. What a great father he was...
Sesshoumaru is a lame liar "I'm just going there to kill the dog" is the weakest excuse I ever heard. It is as weak as "tensaiga made me do it".

A very sharp and critical reading of Half Blood Prince by sistermagpie chapter by chapter.
She does sound severe in her judgment but I do like the points she brings and she uses sarcasm so well. If you love her meta you will love that LJ comm.

-- a tag from rossignol : 6 things you didn't know about me (or maybe you did)
- I have an irrational fear of two things : dinosaurs and snails. (I fear more dinosaurs).
And I'm not kidding.
- I love musical movies, especially the old ones (my favorite one had to be My Fair Lady but it's a close call with Singin' In The Rain).
- I like Little Britain and am ridiculously infatuate with David Walliams.
- I drink my coffee black with sugar (And I don't like milk with my tea).
- I have three family names (I'm a strong dragon king ^_^).
- I believe that Woody Allen's "Crimes and Misdemeanors" ending is very optimistic and beautiful. The movie makes me believe in the Humankind.
