Finally we return to our regular schedule
A side effect of having to spend twenty hours of a beautifully sunny long weekend in someone's basement backing up data to the web server, reformatting the hard drive and reinstalling all the software is that I read about a hundred pages of Trinity Blood and watched six episodes of Bleach, because I was going to lose them in the reformat and anyhow there was nothing to do but wait. ^^; Good episodes too, 29-34. It was a miracle that they played, although picture and sound both lagged at times. I managed to save 32 (expanded Renji and Rukia backstory!) and 34 (expanded Renji-Kira-Momo cuteness plus Aizen!) on zip disks so I won't have to re-download them, fannish priorities self-evident what. It's being brought home to me that I read most of this series in French and English. When I watch the anime I'm all like, "Gin speaks kansai? Who knew!" Also, Tenipuri voice actors. Also, Aizen/Momo WTF. It didn't strike me that way in the manga at all but would it kill Hayami Sho to switch his je ne sais quoi off for FIVE MINUTES PLEASE at least while you're inviting the little girl into your bedchamber thank you.
Also saved Trinity Blood 5, and watched it after I got home. I... I give up. XD;; If I hadn't been reading "Silent Noise" on Gord's veranda while waiting for Windows to install itself I wouldn't even know who Noelle was, and as it is I'm just like "...errm TIMELINE WHAT TIMELINE." Probably'll have to read all of RAM before anime is spoiler-safe, and even then. OTOH ep.6 is "Sword Dancer". Though that happens to be the one RAM story I thought didn't need to be a full episode, which only goes to show.
