I guess I'll hop on the wishing fictional characters a happy birthday train :p


Happy Birthday Asuka!
 
I never finished watching that. I enjoyed it, and then it went all Endless Eight for a couple of episodes and I quit...

I should probably try to pick it back up, it's good.
 
Massive Funimation sale going on through Amazon. Last through December 31st. Lost of series now for $26 or less. (Complete Black Lagoon collection including Roberta's Blood Trail is $40 all together. Not bad.)

EDIT: Trigun is $17. Most Funimation series are on sale for $25.49)

EDIT 2: In related news, the old Anime Legends series are getting pricey. Wolf's Rain is on sale for $85 new and $75 used.
 
I might as well contribute something on Asuka's B-Day:

Considering that they share the same VA (Yuko Miyamura) and Yuko's birthday was used for Asuka, then if you think otherwise...
 
Don't make her mad, Sephy.

I love the opening theme. Never skip it. And of course "Fly Me To The Moon" is always great.

Fry me to da moon, and ret me pray among da starssssss

Glorious every time, though I was referring to Cruel Angel's Thesis. In fact, the entire OST for that show just rocked, including the Hey Jude clone that played during the Shinji Liquidises Humanity While I Play Unfitting Music scene in EoE.

Zankoku na tenshi no you ni, shounen yo shinwa ni nare~~~~
 
I don't care what Sephy or what anyone says, but Asuka in this outfit is the best/cool.

Happy birthday, you crazy yet interesting character.

Her plug suit is my favorite as well and I love the jacket-on-plug suit action. It's wonderful.


Zankoku na tenshi no you ni, shounen yo shinwa ni nare~~~~

Gets me pumped every time.

Man, I'm hooked on Bleach. I've started probably a month ago and am already on episode 286. :D
And on that note, I've finished it. The anime, at least. Now I'm probably gonna continue on with the manga. 👍

Your wallet is now crying.

Not too much I'm going to really go for as my care for many things isn't enough for me to buy them, even at really low prices. Also LOL at how Ghost in the Shell: Arise is already on sale. 2,500 copies of an import in this market where most stuff can't hit 5 digits was totally going to sell, right FUNimation?
--------------------------
Well this isn't going to do well, and this very awkward video already screams they don't understand the market here. That release is going to sink.

Favorite part of the movie.

The Dubbed version of Arise does come out next year. Most likely using the SAC cast.
 
Rei is naked in the scene where everybody hugs and turns into tang though?

If you're not referring to giant nakedness though, does that mean your favourite scene is the one where her arm falls off? That scene grossed me out...

You need a rewatch.
 
Personally, I think the most traumatic thing that happens to Rei in NGE probably involves seeing the destroyed bodies of all of your clones. That or episode 23, take your pick. She didn't seem especially moved either way when Shinji fell on her, which of course reflects on her origins.

I oddly thought of this from the Crucible:
Because it is my name! Because I cannot have another in my life! Because I lie and sign myself to lies! Because I am not worth the dust on the feet of them that hang! How may I live without my name? I have given you my soul; leave me my name!

I don't remember FUNi stating that, especially when you consider reverse-importation fears (Gits:Arise finishes up sometime next year). 2015 is more likely.
