It occurs to me that although bitterlotus and I marathoned all remaining 8 episodes of Supernatural season 5 last Friday, I didn't post about it at all.
I am... surprisingly excited about the anime. Huh. I mean, if they're just re-making the 'greatest hits' from the first two seasons, that sounds alright to me. Wonder what the "Bloody Mary" episode will look like animated. Something to look forward to on the animated front at least.
I hope they get Jensen and Jared to do the English dub. (Also, how really, really weird will it be to hear Sam and Dean talking in Japanese?)
I'm curious to see what they do with the dub. If there'll be an English track, a Japanese track, or both. With Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust there was only ever an English language track, so it's entirely possible.
I really want it to come around again, but I just don't know if it can manage it. I guess we'll see. Maybe once I've had a break from it for a while it'll feel fresh again.
Wow, I'm surprised by how apparently vehemently you disliked the latter half of the season. I certainly didn't think it was nearly that bad, although I expected your extreme dislike of the Whore of Babylon episode. Blame the bible for writing it? Or blame Supernatural for doing it? 50/50?
Anyway, I guess we'll at least have something to talk about at CON. While I agree that the big-bad story of Heaven vs. Hell was stretched out a bit too much, I thought the finale was a really fantastic way to wrap it up.
Eek, I was just reviewing this post for panel topics and realized I never replied to you. Sorry!
I guess it wasn't that I disliked the latter half any more or less than the rest. I've just been bored since the beginning of the season and even the season's climax failed to impress, so I may come across as harsher on the end of it than I actually am. I'm really mostly "meh" on the whole thing. Just bored with the same old same old.
Re: The Whore of Babylon thing, the 50/50 blame split is pretty fair. I don't like it in either context.
