The jaina is my secret pimp, I must do as she commands and pretend it was my idea

1. Tell me one thing you love about me.

2. Tell me two things you love about yourself.

3. Look through the comments ~ when you see someone you know, tell them three things you love about them.

4. Do this in your journal so I can tell you what I love about YOU - and if you've already done it, tell me so, so that I can go back and give you some love. (Optional, of course.)

Re: SPOILERS for "Fullmetal Alchemist" and "Revolutionary Girl" finales below!

I didn't truly like Shakespeare until I saw it performed live by a professional theater. I didn't truly love Shakespeare until I read Hamlet.

Your description of Utena sounds a lot like my reaction to Cowboy Bebop-- only I didn't force myself to watch CB (it was quite a bit more enjoyable than Utena), just that I was rather indifferent to the show as a whole for 90% of the time that I watched it. And then I watched the finale, and I went from thinking it was just ok to loving it retroactively.

I'll look forward to your FMA comparison. Did you read my FMA essay about father/mother figures and symbols earlier today? I'd be interested in hearing your thoughts about that.

I got a fairly rough run-down of how the series ends and the whole black rose arc from a conversation sometime within a year of what parts I did watch of it, closer or further I don't know.

I've forgotten most of the details, but I consider myself fairly spoiled for the whole thing. That alone should tell you how I feel about it-- if I, Rashaka The SpoilerPhobe Of New And Unmatched Levels Of Extreme Paranoia And Resistance, am willing to be spoiled for 2/3 of a series then I don't put much stock in it.
