Yeah, that kid made me want to throttle him and I am usually patient with fictional kids. But it's amazing how he grows from a hideous whiny brat into a hunky unwhiny adult.

I took a little break from ROCH intensity with S18 but am back for more tomorrow.

And my Handsome Siblings dvds are here, yay!

well, the adult isn't whiny, but the brain still has a ways to go to catch up with the body. But at least he's endearing now.

and YAY! for HS dvds

Ehhh, the brain is going to catch up. Midway through the drama he is even...gasp...snarky. And bitter and awesome.

Oh, why do I need things like sleep and eat when there are dramas?

Did you get to the part where the evil Mochou Li broke into the tomb and they are running away and blood donations of awesomeness occur?

I did indeed. Just finished ep 5. Snarky bitter and awesome are all very, very good.

has anyone noticed that most kids in anime, manga and doramas who are supposed to be cute or endearing or spunky are really just annoying? I wonder if something always gets lost in translation.

In Japan, they're probably thinking the same thing about American TV... *cough* Wesley Crusher *cough*

Yes, but not counting that brief time period where some of a certain age and gender might be inclined to crush on him, we all know he's annoying.
