hyena_galDear Californian voters,
Uhm... why didn't you vote *no* on Prop 8?! Because, really, that's what you *should* have done!
Well...anywho, here's a video *for* Prop 8 I couldn't help but find hilarious: www.youtube.com/watch
''Oh My Gawd! Prince x prince! Princess x princess! So wrong!'' --- uh, right. What? Just one thing to this: oh Nelly!
Ok, in other news:
Just finished watching Hellsing and Elfen Lied!
Hellsing: Gorgeous animation in this. A true feast for the eye. Not to mention Sir Integra Hellsing -- oh yeah. Quite The Hottie, if I may say so myself. Something about that butch appearance and that iron will...*fans self*. Yummy. Which brings me to the other female character in this series -- Seras Victoria. Also a thoroughly enjoyable character: little kitten trying to come to terms with now being a little kitten... with not so small fangs! Instead of whining, she just tries to deal with the entire situation. And, of course, Alucard -- such a bloody charming bastard. If I have to look at a male lead in a show, *this* is how I want him to be.
Elfen Lied: What a... strange anime. Enjoyable, though. I came for the gore -- expectedly liked that, but of course liked it even more when I saw what was *behind* it. I especially found the opening theme song and the Klimt paintings beautiful and powerful -- the quiet sadness, the wish for forgiveness in all of it. I enjoyed the small subtle actions in the anime the most -- for example, Nyuu's failed attempts at making the clock work, which was, of course, her own way of trying to fix something completely *else*. You know what that is if you've seen the show. Said a lot without any words spoken. Especially found the ending great -- Kouta turning around, noting: ''Oh. It started working again.'' That brought a smile to my face. My only complaint? I could have done with more shoujo-ai in this. ;-) Though, I suppose Nana and Mayu provided me with what little they had to offer.
