Gungrave 1-2, fansub

[timepiececlock]

I'm finally watching Gungrave. Because I have all the subs and it's playing on a cable channel in dubbed. So I'm pausing my Monster viewing to injest some of this instead.

Episode 1: Blegh.


Episode 2: Looking better!

Brandon is like, I dunno, a hot young someone. He's workin' the long hair thing.
Harry is like a grown up and tough-looking Shinji from Neon Genesis Evangelion. What Shinji would look like physically if he grew up, filled out, and added pounds of muscle.
The bartender has Spike Spiegel hair and I'd swear the young kid is the same baseball-loving one that worked with Spike's ship-building mentor in that Bebop episode with the space shuttle.


Edit 1: watching the rooftop fistfight now. At first I thought Harry was cuter but damn Brandon's sleeveless vest get-up is hot. Especially when he's jumping around hitting things. What was it Buffy said in that one BtVS episode? "Look at his arms. Those are nice arms to have."

My first impression of the characters:

Harry: Hi. I'm the brains of this outfit and I'm going to talk my way into power, fast. I'm charming and fun to be around and I will hack your balls off in a second.

Brandon: Grr. Arggh. ::makes hand gestures that indicate 'Hi. I'm Brandon, and I'm a walking sex popsicle. I don't talk much but I'm very, very hot. Do I make you horny baby?'::

Rashaka: ::gestures:: 'Yes you dooooooooo. Let's find us a haystack and get to business.'

The first episode makes a hell of a lot more sense after you get through most of the season. When it jumped back to present day - which is when that was - I thought it came off much less cheesy. But that was me.

Harry was kinda nice looking in the early days but right before he became head honcho, the looks department went downhill. Brandon was hot till he cut his hair, then I kinda went blah with him. The glasses and short hair just wasn't him and it just wasn't the looks, the whole personality changed.

When I first saw Jolice, the first thing that ran through my head was a near relative of Spike too. And I never thought about that regarding Kenny till you mentioned it.

Also the thing with Brandon that always made me wonder, was there something special about him that ppl feared? During that rooftop fight, right before he punched that guy, the guy took one look in Brandon's eyes and just freaked, as if Brandon was a monster. I think later on even Bunji noticed that there was something "special" about Brandon but even we don't know what.

*snerks* Oh god yes!

I made some Gungrave South Park characters if you want to check them out here (http://www.livejournal.com/community/gun_grave/56895.html#cutid1) but don't scroll any farther than Bunji's pic cause below that is a spoiler if you don't want to see it.
