Here is the deal with that analogy. The women must prove herself first because she has to prove to the men she is capable of carrying them away if they are injured, and that she is reliable because your life depends on her being good.

 

I come from a military family, and you must be able to trust your life in the hands of your battle buddy. If you can't, you don't bring them with you.

 

Sure.

 

But in this case.

 

This woman is a freaking bad-ass who can head-shot you with a kurai without even looking at you.

 

So let's change 'woman' to 'veteran-soldier.' It's like everybody at Fort Briggs told Oliver Armstrong "this isn't a place for a woman." (Of course, BEFORE they were brutally murdered by her xD)

I mentioned it as a factor. But seriously, the best analogy I can come up with is this...

 

Think of a woman going to the front-lines being told by her fellow soldiers that she doesn't belong there because she's a woman and the woman herself lamenting on the fact that she shouldn't be there because she's a woman and has never lived like one.

 

See.

 

It's stupid.

 

Feudalism usually is.

Then that's different. If she is that strong, I wouldn't mind going into combat with her because she is reliable and could carry me out if I was injured.

Yes, they are, so what does that say about us?

 

Also, is it wrong to loose my watching spirit of Gurran Lagann after his death.

DON'T RUIN MY NAIVE IMAGE OF JAPAAAAAN YOU BASTAAARRDS

 

The leading cause of death for young men in Japan is suicide. Search "Aokigahara".

 

THERE! 

 

Ahem, sorry.

Show barely started, the mech is only the size of a battleship.

 

You want to know how they get to the in medias res opening, trust me.

Okay, the end of that arc was f*cking brilliant and addressed my complaints completely.

 

"You chose that path. You are who you are."

 

Sorry Gintama for ever doubting you <3

 

So now my only complaint would be Shinpachi. I love him when he's all Otsu-mad, but 80% if the time it's him screaming out the obvious. I know it's his 'role' but it can be annoying if you watch at least 7 episodes a day like I do.

That death is sad. Like, really sad. I never expected it because Gurren Lagann is essentially a comedy to start with. A parody of all those Mecha animes in the past.

 

But daaayyuuum does it grow from there. And when I said Simone develops it's EXACTLY because of that.

Eh.

 

That doesn't bother me much.

 

I'm more annoyed about the whole anti-gay thing Geth showed me an racism. Sure it's all around the world though, it's not like Japan is special. As long as it carries on producing great anime and nerdy things I don't care. I'm going for manga cafes and conventions anyway.

Oh, my first glimpse of the show was the last episode when they were chucking galaxies.

On xenophobia, aside from the "Japanese only" signs on a sparse amount of stores and bars, it doesn't seem that bad. I've read some interesting stuff on Japan's cultural insularity.

 

And ewwwwww.

This weeks Tokyo Ghoul was actually good! Not great, not amazing or any of those things but good which for Tokyo is a massive step in the right direction. Been so used to mediocre or at best decent that it's like a breath of fresh air when it get enough things right. Didn't feel that anything was that off or such either. Just well done and it ended at a solid point which makes me actually want to watch the next weeks episode which hasn't always been the case with Tokyo. Now if they could stop with a few things it'd be great..

 

Now onwards to Zankyou No Terror!

Cool. Bookmarked. I'll need to read it some time... oh it's only on kindle? :-(

 

And yeah, if Cersei were my sister I totally would.

 

No Turin and Nienor stuff. Seriously, out of topic here, you want some DARK Tolkein? Go read The Children of Hurin. Shakespeare's tragedies haven't got sh*t on that piece of sadism.

Zankyou No Terror delivered what it always deliver, a rather great episode that has been in the air for a little while and introduced some needed things to make the plot move forward and let our main characters work a little for their goal. There's really not much to be said without going into spoiler territory but yeah as usual a great episode and decent development on most fronts. Even Lisa got some potential that i do hope the creators can make some out off. Starting to quite like the main characters of the show!

The threat was there and Zero remained as a reminder of that threat.

 

I presume the fight with Galahad? He didn't predict his moves then. Nor did he see in the future. As for Shirley, she was already in the process of dying, you can't make anybody come back to life. Suzaku basically gives up on life everytime until the Geass is set. Self-preservation is over 9000 with that dude after it.

 

You mean Leuloch.

 

First of all, he told Schnizel to serve him. With him dead, either the geass will stop or it will cease to work.

 

Also, no amount of self-perservation desire will give you superpowers. The Knight of One has a power to see into the future and thus predict all of Suzakus moves. Yet suddenly Suzaku defeats him. It was NEVER explained how. Just like half of the stuff in the show.

 

 


Lelouch was a freaking magnet for everybody's hatred, everything from world hunger to the dog who sh*t on the pavement was blamed on him. HE was the big bad of the world, and Zero saved it by murdering him.

 

And? So what if he was hated? So was Hitler. Yet his death didn't see the world united in peace.

 


And as for the whole thing. The message could have been pre-recorded BEFORE... but yeah, that's head canon. Even so, timeskips are a factor. The time between one scene to the next might not be 'real time' if you know what I'm saying.

 

The order of the scenes is irrelevant. The timing is.

You have Schnizel leaving the bridge as soon as Leluloch breaks in. Unless Leuloch moves at the speed of light, him beating Schnizel to the escape craft is...highly unlikely. Schnizel took the elivator on a gigantic fortress (a mile tall at least). Leluch was on a foot.
