Just for fun.  Was going to be 10, but I had troubles narrowing it down.

This is favorite male characters, not biggest crushes(for example, much as I love Manji, I could never ever crush on him...actually, I don't really crush on a lot of these...most of the ones I do aren't even here...very strange...)

In no order whatsoever, aside from the fact ( Read more... )

• Apparently they're making a sequel to The Thomas Crowne Affair called The Topkapi Affair.  No details yet beyond Brosnan as Crowne.  Not sure how I feel about. TTCA was a pretty complete story, and a large part of what made it good was Rene Russo, who isn't listed for TTA (yet, hopefully.)  With a good screenwriter and bringing Russo back, it could ( Read more... )

I posted on Darcia and his angst before, and this post is very similar to it(and reuses a lot of the pictures), but I figured that, as it's pertinent to discussions I've been having with a few people lately it bore repeating.

Actually been trying out some fanfic lately instead  of just reading summaries. Nothing really new here, but...

(pretty much all anime/manga because hey, it's my life lately, though a few other things get mentioned)

I like canon.  I'm not quite a canon nazi, but unless canon is flatout BAD(in which case, why bother with the fandom anyway?) I see ( Read more... )

Finished the Wolf's Rain rewatch.  Excellent, of course, but I'm not posting on it because there's no way to talk about ity without completely spoiling it and I'm not doing that.

Also watched Those Who Hunt Elves, about three people from our world who get transported to a fantasy world and have to strip elves to find pieces of the spell that will ( Read more... )

eps 19-20 are about Kiba being in the "false paradise" after trying to save Cheza from Jagara's troups.  There, he meets a girl(actually a canine animal I don't immediately recognize) named Myu who makes him instinctively feel uncomfortable, who tells him that he's in paradise, which he accepts all too easily.  I've seen a lot of people point to ( Read more... )

Before I get to Darcia...BLUE!!!!!!

I love Blue.  I love her design and her attitude, and that she feels little need to apologize for her past.  She and Quent hunted wolves because they believed that wolves murdered Quent's family.  When she encounters Cheza, she realizes what she is and that she can't continue with her life as it was, and so she ( Read more... )

Watched the first episode of Those Who Hunt Elves, which is about several humans from modern Japan who, through a process that we don't learn in the episode, have ended up on a fantasy world and are looking for 5 elves who ended up with pieces of a spell somewhere on their body after a spell gone awry.  As elves tend to wear clothes, they have to ( Read more... )
