that will be my battle cry for a while. since I cannot apparently get anything else done tonight. *brandishes chopsticks of war at ancient psychologists who could not write ONE paper with everything in it, oh no*
I was capping like mad with VirtualDub *waves to
morning_songs*, but, uh, halfway through it tells me the .avi file is corrupted and seeking will make my comp hang. and it did. so I cannot show you samurai doing capoaea, nor Mugen dreaming of Jin in a hot tub. *mourns* never mind, I got lots of Jin, whom I will be really scarily fangirlish about hereon. ahem.
JIIIIIN. his voice is beautiful, cultured to match his face.
Jin's first appearance in Random Village, being very modest and hiding behind a straw hat, or maybe he just likes beind the same colour as the walls.
Mugen's first appearance in Random Village, being a badass and entering with eyes shut and shuffly footsteps and silence.
not Fuu's first appearance, but pretty much all she has been doing so far is ask for trouble.
this is obviously a trend, although Jin does it more eloquently.
Mugen, less so.
...
♥♥♥
even the hat he threw into the air 5 seconds and 3 men ago only serves --
-- to keep his beautiful face clean.
elsewhere, Mugen, having kicked ass in a sequence I was too lazy to cap, explains the bermudas.
he is caught in this compromising position by Jin...
who is crushed, but remains a gentleman.
Mugen covers smoothly by piling on the flattery, and we know what this leads to--
... um, dude, the other way. *facepalm*
the file puttered out at this point, so I will continue the only way I know how:
HOUSE: *rages with fire*
MUGEN: Daaaaah!
JIN: *sits unconcernedly in hot tub, like the badass he is*
MUGEN: Hm.
MUGEN'S HAIR: *catches fire*
MUGEN: It's cold. Hm.
WATER: Hi!
MUGEN: Daaaaah! ... hey I'm tied up. Bummer.
MAGISTRATE: I'm going to kill you.
MUGEN: The hell. What happened? I dreamt there was a huge fire and I was fighting this dude--
JIN: That was not a dream.
MUGEN: Hey? So the bit where you were naked in the bath--
JIN: That was a dream.
MAGISTRATE: I SAID, I'M GOING TO KILL YOU. Torture chamber!
MUGEN: Ow-
JIN: Ow-
MUGEN: Ow-
JIN: Ow-
MUGEN: Ow-
JIN: Ow!
(etcetera, until they are all beat up and cannot move)
JIN: *laughs*
MUGEN: What?
JIN: You fight like a monkey... first monkey I couldn't kill.
MUGEN: Monkey's name is Mugen. You remember that, yo.
JIN: Mugen.
MUGEN: WHAT NOW?
JIN: I am called Jin. I would like you to remember that*.
(from here onwards Fuu is cute, Mugen is a badass, Jin is a badass, Fuu is a cute badass, random samurai ass gets kicked nine ways to tomorrow etcetera, watch it, words and caps don't do the action justice.)
cannot express how much I love Jin nor his seiyuu right now. the way he smoothly introduced himself destroyed me (*'watashi wa Jin da, obaeteku hai', someone else translate the second bit correctly :p). Fuu also comes up with the best way EVER to discreetly transport bombs, I regret not getting that capped.
if you haven't seen it, PLEASE do. I think the fights are like what BOTI fights would be, if BOTI was ever animated. aaah stress relief. back to work.
