So... I finally finished Evolution-R. And I like to think of myself as fashionably late, thankyouverymuch.
I wish I could give you guys a great over-arching review about how I feel about Revo/Evo-R, but I guess that's not going to happen besides me saying that there were things I really liked, and things I wish were different, but over all, I'm very satisfied. I don't think either touches NEXT or TRY in my mind, but I enjoyed them very much. And my reaction at the end is predictably...
*holds out hand* MOAR PLEAZ!!!!
Though I will say this: I knew that Filia wasn't going to be in this, so I had no high hopes to make me disappointed. In fact, the 'Raw Garbage' thing in Revolution was an unexpected delight, but I have to say... and I'm sure I'm not the only one who feels this way... HOW THE HELL DO YOU HAVE A PLOT POINT INVOLVING FINDING A JAR AND NOT MENTION THE PERSON WHO OWNS A SHOP THAT SELLS JARS?! THAT. IS. NOT. RIGHT!!!
*cough* But I'm sure I won't have a fully-formed opinion until I get into rewatching... that's always how it works. And I'm looking forward the screenshotting the hell out of these seasons.
Plus I told myself I wouldn't write another long-running Zelgadis/Amelia or Lina/Gourry fic until I'd seen Revo/Evo-R through, so now that's back on the table. It doesn't mean I'm raring to start something yet, but it's an option again.
It's weird, but after a long time of waning interest in anime, I've been back in the saddle this past week. I blame Hellsing, which I really enjoyed and went through reading in a matter of days. Gonna watch the anime pretty soon, although I think I was going to watch Record of Lodoss War first. I've also ordered the Chrono Crusade anime because the price was right and I remember enjoying the manga... and probably because I have demon-battling religious orders on the brain or something.
...This is all probably because my summer is drying up and I have to watch this stuff while I have time to!
