My Week in Anime #48
Oh man, yesterday was just what I needed after three consecutive hectic days at work -- a nice day to relax and recharge my batteries. I swear if I had another day filled with making stupid election bio boxes, my brain would have exploded. ...The monster is here.
Man, I wish I could watch Monster live with everyone! Johan's first big scene in ep4 always gives me chills. Although I would actually argue that until the second big arc, at least, Inspector Lunge is the creepiest character in the series. He really rubbed me the wrong way for a long time, haha.
Anyway, I have my second Monster post on UNMEI KAIHEN right here. Writing this was a bit easier because 1) I did it after a good night's sleep xD 2) I took some notes while watching the episode and 3) There is no third reason.
I encourage everyone interested in Monster to read it, particularly because the series is already asking some tough questions, haha.
Work is going well. I don't have any really interesting stories yet, since I have been flitting all around the office as I have been training, but I'm settled in one area now, so yay!
Yesterday was sort of rough, though, because I got a page with a couple of school board election bio boxes on them, and those things are a bitch to work with because they're freaking enormous, so it's immediately a struggle to get them to fit on the page, and also because there are also like 10 bajillion elements to each box, so messing with one thing pretty much makes everything else explode. Ugh.
My Week in Anime #47
Whew, this is more like it! I have a bit less time to watch things than I did before (not that I am complaining), so I don't think I'll ever approach some crazy number like I have in the past, but I'd say this is a good week! And here is a ...The Monster is Growing
I watched the Monster dub a bit later than some of you, but I enjoyed it for the most part. So much so, in fact, that I'll be doing weekly Monster posts on UNMEI KAIHEN for the duration of the show's run on SyFy.
Here is the first post now, as a matter of fact!
Some very vague spoilers about future events, but other than that, it should be good for vets and newbies alike to read. It's good for a start, anyway; frankly, I don't even think I have gone all that deep at all yet, haha. Just wait until the real stuff starts happening. Hopefully my mind will always be this clear when I write these posts, too, because with my schedule, I think I will always have to write them before going to sleep. xD
So, yes, for all you Monster fans out there, please read! Hopefully my posts keep getting better along with the series itself. :D
EDIT: Also, some more fanboyish thoughts that I didn't include in the above post.
-- I forgot how much I love the OP. The song is good, and the OP sequence is kind of awesome. Too bad SyFy has to hurry through the ED, though.
-- It is absolutely hilarious to see Eva being relatively polite in the first couple of episodes ... well, until she dumps Tenma, anyway.
-- I feel bad for him, but drunk!Tenma always cracks me up.
-- Not to mention crazy shouting!Tenma.
-- Another fun note: The evil doctors in these episodes are not even 1/1,000,000th as horrible as the worst characters in the series. Yay!
