Greetings from /a/. I like how you label each series with the related studio. I'll need to do this sometime.

Ah, thank you. A good Edward reference in my profile was hard to pass up.

Stella was awesome. I think I liked her Earth outfit better, but blue skin + that outfit = fff.
Japan and France are pretty close artistically, I know--it started in the 1800s after the Meiji Restoration and the two kind of traded artistic concepts: France took the concept of "negative space" and other Japanese aesthetics, like ukiyo-e, and Japan started borrowing from Western painting traditions. This more or less extended to the modern age: Rose of Versailles was a huge hit in France (no doubt due to its being set IN France), anime directors have often cited New Wave French directors (Jean-Luc Godard mostly, I think), etc. etc. So it's just another entry in the cultural communications between the two. Just with more house music.
The only thing that bugged me was that Toei liked to make the animation go at different FPS at times, it seemed, so it got kind of jarring at times. Which did nothing to dent the AWESOME.

YES OH GOD
I put it off for some crazy reason (mostly not having listened to Daft Punk yet) but got the DVD in the post just before going to work, then when I got home just watched it. It was so Leiji Matsumoto that it made me want to track down his other stuff that I lamentably haven't seen yet. :(
Interstella 5555 is like a giant dance party.

Hell yeah it was. I was expecting Minori to pull a Kohaku or a Honey & Clover like ending. What I got was one of the worst rush jobs I've ever seen. I was completely disappointed.

Saji hate confuses me--in season one, people were raging against Nena for ripping Louise and Saji apart! (I have the inflammatory and badly proofread comments to prove it, too!) I think, more or less, it's one of those things where people expect the series to be something that it doesn't really try to be. SDS pointed out this utterly weird disconnect.
And I'd honestly rather have my characters legitimately "emo" and have depth than be GAR and have no depth whatsoever. 'Tis a tricky line to walk, I think.

It breaks my heart every time I say the word "Gundam" and get people making faces at me because of Wing/SEED's reputations. The first Gundam I watched was SEED, and I forget the convoluted path that took me to the other ones I've seen. I actually had a friend who, while in Japan, explained that the first Gundam series to air in America was Wing, and his Japanese friends who heard this started laughing and said "That's insane!"
Of course, I've still no idea why large groups of people (or, well, perceived large groups of people) seem to be not caring for 00 very much. It makes me sad, especially after episode 11.

Well, you know there's nothing wrong with loving G Gundam, and I know there's nothing wrong with loving G Gundam
..but does everyone else?

Oh. And don't know if you noticed or not, but the first episode of the live action Hantsuki is out. So is the first Kara no Kyoukai movie.

Well he did go out of his way to link me to his profile. I had to say something. :btns:
Also, I disagree with every single one of your opinions. Just so you know.

Devdan, I think you seriously need a life. PH can rate it whatever he wants, it's his list. If you don't like that then who cares? I know I sure don't and he prolly doesn't either.
