Making screenshot posts isn't my usual thing, but why not?

And I know, I shouldn't be as ridiculously amused over these as I am. My humor is SO bad sometimes.

( Might be considered spoilers for Gundam 00 2nd season episode 20 )

One of the more amusing episodes in a while I think, partially thanks to this. Which probably says something about me... And given the ending, I'm not sure my reaction was what the script writers intended, really.

Four episodes into Gundam 00, and this far no sight of anything to make me feel anything particular for it. In other words, it's already proven itself to be no Seed, and no Wing. No Cagalli, no Duo, no Athrun, no Heero. Just four annoying gundam pilots that I couldn't care less for. I really hope it is in the staff's plan to make Celestial Being come off as the bad, irritating ones here. Someone needs to defect from the organization soon, or at least get in some angsty mess. I'm feeling slightly uncomfortable finding myself more interested in the success of the side characters than the main ones here.

The Shinn wannabe Setsuna once again make me wonder what organizations deploying gundams have against psychological aptitude tests by the way.

And can someone please give Mr Erde the sex change operation that he so obviously wants! Or just kill off the smug bastard already.

From Gunota:
"Bandai and Glico jointly announced the Pocky Gunpla Packs, three varieties of specially-marked packages of Pocky which come with 1/144 scale Gunpla: gokuboso (ultra-thin) chocolate + RX-78-2 Gundam, regular chocolate + Char's Zaku II, and Men's bitter chocolate + mass-production Zaku II. The target for this is the 30-year-old male demographic. The Pocky Gunpla Packs will hit stores nationwide for a limited time starting December 11."

Yes, for once I feel they got the demographic target thing right. (But unfortunately the wrong nationality...) I want!

Addendum for Swedish audience: OK, so it's basically the adult version of Tom & Jerry crackers. So what?

Rewatched SEED Destiny 50, this time with subtitles. Not that it made that much of a difference...

( Cut for what could be called spoilers for GSD 50, but probably isn't. Unless you're the hyper-sensitive kind. )

I'm not sure it's a good sign when you repeatedly start dreaming about being back in highschool. Especially not when it involves talking to people you haven't seen or talked to in real life for ten years! Oh well, I guess that what you get when you choose to read Harry Potter and watching highschool romance anime right before bedtime. ^^;

Last days I have been too lazy as usual, not doing the things I should have done. Must pull myself together and write some stuff soon, I guess.

And, just so my subconscious mind get the point, by "writing stuff", I don't mean things like this:

( Dress code (GSD-microficlet, asucaga, all ages) )

It actually looks like someone is making a new effort of fansubbing the "real" "Mobile Suit Gundam" TV series again! Which means I might finally get a chance to watch more than the first episode of it. Let's just hope they will continue well beyond the three currently available. Because I really want to be able to watch the one that started it all - and which is the source for a certain rewrite...

But for now, let me rant about a more recent gundam series...
( no real spoilers for GSD 46, but I can just as well cut it anyway )

So, what do you get when you put a classic American song like "Ballad of the Green Berets" into the hands (and brain) of a Gundam SEED fan like me?

Well, "The Ballad of the Elite Reds" of course.

( Technically includes a very slight spoiler for GS episode 29, or at least it's written with it in mind )

Since maaya1x2 asked about it, I guess I can just as well post it here.

So for everyone that for some odd reason might be interested, here's the German version of the first Gundam Wing opening song (and the only one in the German version), Two-Mix's "Just Communication" - Zeit und Raum. Short TV version of course, and in the not-so-good quality that one gets when ripping sound from a videotape.

Have watched Gundam SEED Destiny ep. 40 now. I SO love this show! ^___^

So the latest addition in Gundam Seed Destiny is a gundam suit named Akatsuki - which apparently means dawn - based upon a design by the Morgenröte company in the country of Orb - or Aube as the translation is in the manga version.

These are the kind of things that greatly amuse me! ^___^ (Yes, I'm weird. So what? ^^ )
