lissa_quonI know that no one that ever reads this has a clue in hell what this series is. But I have no other place to go. I'll just explain that I have two current anime/manga obsessions.
One is Hellsing which I've mentioned earlier, vampires, killer butlers, kick ass female characters, nazis and refrences to opera and Bram Stokers Dracula (not 'I'm Dracula hahah, but actual read the bloody book and took notes refrences) the manga kicks so much ass and I can't wait to buy/get the next one.
The other is Gankutsuou, which is an anime currently being aired in japan. The basic set up is the Count of Monte Cristo except in a somewhat sci-fi almost steam punk approach ( I say almost cause its got the style without the actual steam and such, its like Star Trek tech with style). Plus or minus a few characters, add in a murky funky space decease and some really cool art effects and thats what the series is. (for art refs, all my current icons are from the series)
So Gankutsuou, episode 12, just downloaded
OMG JIGGA WTF!? Count under arrest!? Eugenie not a lesbian and her and Albert all happy like? (so sweet together though). And Bennedetto totally being all creepy like towards Eugenie, dude shes like your...ew...
And what was up with the buildup, like something big is happening. WHAT!? it can't be time for the final plots to come it, this things supposed to be like what 20 something episodes.
WHATS GOING ON!? WHATS GOING TO HAPPEN!? WHY DON'T THE EPISODES COME OUT FASTER!? WHY!?
Guess I'll have to wait another two weeks or whatever for the next one, I can't wait that long, my head will explode.
