4. Star Trek
5. Sailor Moon
1. Who is your favourite character in #2?
Sam Anders <3 Pro pyramid player turned resistance leader turned rescued princess turned conveniant lay turned husband turned resistance leader (again) turned widower turned pilot turned Cylon turned confused as frak turned prisoner turned vegetable turned Hybrid.
Why yes, I realized I'm about the only one who will get that sentence <3
I don't know, he's just lovable and wonderful and a bit of a smartass jerk in all of the right ways. And after Crossroads, seeing him struggle with what he is and what he's done and how that meshes together along with him dogging Kara's heels and the rest of the events falling like dominoes and him struggling to assimilate it all and come to grips with it all and then the mutiny and Seelix's betrayal of him and Kara at his side and and and *HUGS HIM LIEK WOAH*
2. Who is your least favourite character in #1?
In the anime, this would be Hazel. He has the distinction of being the only animated character I ever wanted to destroy my TV in order to get my hands around his scrawny little neck. ...so in some ways, I kinda have to be impressed by him...sorta... However, I do like Hazel in the manga, so. I'd have to say Li Touten. He's just...Not Right. At All. Blergh.
3. What’s your favourite episode of #4?
Hmm...I'm not entirely sure that I have a favorite episode, at least not in TOS. The episodes I tend to watch over and over again are (in no particular order): Mirror Mirror, The City on the Edge of Forever, Spock's Brain, A Piece of the Action, The Doomsday Machine, The Enterprise Incident and The Empath.
In TNG, my favorite episode is what I call "Ugly Bags of Mostly Water". It's the episode where the Enterprise is called in to assist in a terraforming project emergency and they discover a silicon-based life form that ends up interfacing with the ship computer. This is my favorite because it explores the possibility of intelligent life that isn't just another form of human.
4. What is your favourite season of #5?
Season 3, the one where the outers are introduced and with Sailor Saturn and yes <3 This, I believe, is the darkest of the SM seasons. Perhaps that's why I love it so much? I do tend toward darker tales...
5. What’s your favourite ship in #3?
Hughes/Roy. Or older!Ed/Roy.
6. Who is your anti-ship in #2?
Er...I'm not sure that I have one...maybe as a canon ship Kara/Lee, mostly because they hurt each other purposely so well that I prefer them only as friends. (and also because I like her and Sam together so much, eventhough she inadvertently tells him she'll put a bullet between his eyes...THERE'S A REASON FOR THIS *cough*angst*cough* AND I SAID INADVERTENTLY er...yeah...)
7. How long have you watched #1?
Since I was waiting on Gensomaiden volumes to come out in bookstores XD I want to say I discovered the anime back in 2004 or so? And from the first two seasons, picked up Reload, Requiem and Gunlock and delved into the manga and eventually started reading the scanlations of Gaiden as they were coming out. I don't watch the anime very much anymore, but I do still pick up random volumes of the manga <3
8. How did you become interested in #3?
The movie was premiering at one of the conventions I went to several years ago and I wanted to see the movie, but I had carpooled with a friend. She got tired, so we had to go as she had driven, and we left before the movie started. They were showing it a second time the next morning, but she didn't want to get up early enough to make it and the sunday bus schedule wasn't going to get me there on-time, either. Another friend of mine told me that it ended up being a good thing I missed the movie since I'd not seen the show yet, so he lent me the first season so I could check it out.
Bought both seasons when I gave him his discs back. Was disappointed in the movie, eventhough it was cool. And have collected all of the manga. Oh yeah, and I've got the first two seasons of the new show. <3
9. Who is your favorite character in #4?
Dr Leonard "Bones" McCoy <3 I've loved him since TOS, through the movies, his cameo on TNG and am still loving him into Reboot.
(Data is my fav in TNG, which the scene with Data and McCoy about made me explode with happiness XD)
10. Which show do you prefer out of #1, #2, or #5?
WHY ARE YOU MAKING ME CHOOSE BETWEEN SAIYUKI AND BSG????????? THIS IS SO FRAKKING TOTALLY NOT COOL. just sayin'. If we're talking animation, my fav is Saiyuki. If we're talking live action, my fav is BSG <3
There! Problem solved <3
11. Which show have you seen more episodes of, #1 or #3?
Saiyuki. I think, though, by the time Brotherhood is finished, there will be more FMA episodes than Saiyuki, but Saiyuki still has more movies than FMA, so by the time FMA is finished, they'll probably be tied.
For manga, at this point, I think FMA still has more volumes than Saiyuki. However, once Blast and Ibun are finished, they'll either be tied, or Saiyuki will probably have more.
12. If you could be anyone from #4, who would you be?
Uhura. She kicks so much ass and is so utterly awesome. (But I'd rather not kiss Kirk...not that she wanted to, but just sayin')
13. How would you kill off your favourite character in #2?
YOU MEAN THE WAY CANON DID ISN'T GOOD ENOUGH??? T_T
Er...honestly, I have no idea. And it's not from lack of ideas, it's from there being way way way too many ways to do so ^^;;; Not to mention all of the close calls he had in the show on top of how the show actually ended. I think it'd depend on the story I was writing...and now I actually kinda want to write BSG fic...oops ^^;; NOT UNTIL I FINISH MY AUCTION FIC DARN IT
14. Give a random quote from #1.
Ukoku: Desperation's a nice look on you. Are you that humiliated?
Sanzo: ...Yes. I'm fucking mortified.
(from Reload 9)
15. Would a #3/#4 crossover work?
Um...well, ST usually can work it's way into most series (after all, several people have managed to crossover ST and LOTR...) but it ST and FMA were to be crossed over, I CERTAINLY WOULDN'T LET ED ON THE ENTERPRISE! ^^;;;;;;
16. Pair two characters in #1 that would make an unlikely, but strangely okay couple.
Define "Okay". ^^;; Cause I'm going to get shot for this, but Hakkai and Ukoku. *is shot* What? They're both dark and twisted and kinda are reflections of each other. They both have this thin veneer of charisma that is totally faked, and yet totally not, so they can get along, surprisingly well (if they so choose to, that is) with others. Where they drift is 1) Hakkai actually does have morals. Ukoku laughed at his and sent them off to play in traffic. and 2) Hakkai sometimes tries to get along well with people outside of the ikkou, whereas Ukoku enjoys riling others up in as many different ways as he can.
17. Overall, which show has a better cast, #3 or #5?
I'm going to have to go with FMA over Sailor Moon. Sailor Moon sounds like a voice over (and that's ignoring the dub because the dub makes me want to tear out my ear drums). FMA's voice cast sounds more integrated with the animation and the recording tools they used sounds better as well.
18. Which has better theme music, #2 or #4?
Oh man, another tough choice. I think I'll have to go with BSG, though. After all, while ST helped me to learn my intervals (TNG starts out a P4, TOS starts out a m7), it's BSG that I'll listen to anytime and in full.
Also, holy stinking long time since I've posted, Batman @_@ Need to get a bit better about that. ^^;;;
I did recently throw myself off a mountain on a bike <3 That's probably my best update XD
