Oh hey vacation is about to end. I don't mind it, since it seemed just like a really long vacation to me anyways. I am very happy with today actually. Or that's what I thought while freezing on a bench with Windy. And hey, that freezing session motivated me enough to find myself some gloves. Ah, there is nothing better than yellow gloves. For now at least.
The reason I actually started this blog post is because I finished watching an anime episode. It was an anime that ended for now. I am not pleased. At all. My main problem is that this is the third one this week. And there is more to come. Although this means new anime, it is still quite maddening for various reasons.
First of all, two out of three animes did a real bad job on wrapping it up. I'm sorry but if the anime starts with the main character being dead and the rest of it is pretty much one big flash back then I expect to see the main character dead at the end of the series. Not gaining some new power and the two other main characters(who had sacrificed themselves just a few minutes/episodes ago) miraculously doing the same. It makes no sense whatsoever, especially when people have repeatedly said that the human body cannot withstand the swan song and just because one of them lacked the needed guts to pull it off, it does not mean that everybody survives it. It kind of kills off the purpose of the swan song: to get a ridiculous amount of power and then die because your body can't take the power. And to say that the main purpose of the enemy was to shoot down my beloved full moon did not make it better. But the concept of the moon being a curse is very nice. Even if it had to be the Babel tower.
My next problem is that they start the last episode with the ending and end it with the opening. Now I wouldn't have anything against it except that it gets quite tiring when you see several animes do that. Within the span of two days. It makes it seem as if every anime will be only watched by one group of people, who won't watch any other anime or something like that. Also the endings tend to be sort of...less awesome? I skip them usually since I don't like them as much as the opening. So I am not too pleased with having to listen to the ending at the beginning. Skipping it there would also be an option but I prefer not too, since I have just made myself comfortable and couldn't be bothered with moving.
So that's my rant on animes that have ended(in a very unpleasant manner in my opinion). I only gave you examples of one but I might want to mention that it turns out I was wrong about the typical shoujo anime I ranted on some posts ago. They did not pair up with anyone, it just got really...retarded? I'm not even completely sure what happened. Pretty much two thirds of the aliens went home and left the main character crying, but not unhappy. I sort of hope that they won't make a sequel for it, because they never bothered to explain anything to begin with. So I can only imagine what the hell a Rinne flower is and why creepy dude so evil looked, but still never anything evil did. Ah, I want ice cream.
Now I shall rant again on anime, but this time it is my favourite card game anime that has managed to make me go berserk with fury. I was really looking forward to this week's episode, since the main character who promised to never use his awesome powers that make him go all evil looking and make humiliating other people his only goal in life(besides getting stronger), was going to use his powers again. I have no idea what I was expecting but it was certainly not him summoning a card from another deck( "That card is from that deck that made Big brother act weirdly!") and mildly humiliating his opponent. I guess I was expecting him to go all out and more humiliation but that was too much to ask for obviously. I only know that he'll have an identity crisis next week(and not exactly on the right moment considering that it is the final round that decides which team is the best in Japan and the opponents are plotting world domination. Leave it to japanese to make things m-o-re dramatic) and that he will merge the good and bad side in him. Y'know the usual stuff. I wonder if I'll be sad if that anime ends. I'm looking forward to the cold-hearted, misunderstood,orphaned character to smile though. Ah, the joy of previews.
I made tea,
H.
