Gankutsuou! ♥
Mar. 26th, 2006 06:38 pmYeah. Watched episodes 9-12 of Gankutsuou. Still going to die of the shiny. And the characters. And the storyline. And the pairings. And the music. And absolutely everything about it in general. *_* I'm in love with that series.
Franz/Albert is SO CANON.
Well...okay, Franz/Albert is SO CANON on Franz's part, anyway. Albert is a little to distracted by shiny Hakushaku and Eugenie (who I like very much and can therefore most definitely forgive). I am totally not saying this just because I'm a fangirl, either. I squeed out loud like...five times in episode ten (?) when Franz was talking to Maximilien about love. And here I thought those inklings of Franz/Albert I saw in the beginning of the show were just my fangirl mind leaking into my consciousness. ^^
I also squeed a little over Albert/Eugenie, though, so my loyalties as far as pairings go in this series are slightly questionable. Oh well. Since Naruto I've discovered that I can have an OTP and still fall in love with pairings that counteract said OTP, so I'm good. :P
Anyway. Enough pairing talk. It's an absolutely wonderful series in every aspect imaginable--definitely one of the better series I've seen...period. Not to brag or anything, but at this point I think I have the right to say that I've seen a lot of great series, so this is quite an accomplishment. I'm afraid to fanart it, though, because it's so pretty in the actual show. ._.;
Er. Yeah. Gankutsuou is teh awesome. :D

Um, anyway...I have some good fanart I can send you when you're done. And by good I mean damn good, wonderful, excellent, perfection in a pencil.
I'm glad you're liking it as much as I did. Do. Love. Yeah. Drugs + Brain = WTF. I'll just...go now. >.>

Date: 2006-03-27 04:53 am (UTC)Oh, I would LOVE if you send me fanart. Just put it in a zip file and e-mail away! So you know, I do know the one bigbig spoiler regarding Franz and the end of the series, so you don't have to worry about spoiling that. Spoiled it for myself due to an AMV I saw ages ago...
Yeah, hard NOT to love Gankutsuou. It's just...gloriously awesome.

WHY!? I mean, when you watch that episode you--you--they did it so perfectly! You get so emotional! And you SPOILED IT FOR YOURSELF!
For shame. Shame, shame, shame. *shakes head sadly*
You've got to let me know what kind of yaoi you like, because I found so pretty...hmm...explicit stuff. Yes. Explicit. That's a good word. So tell me if you just want the soft stuff and the character pics or if you want it all.
SHAME! *glares*

Date: 2006-03-27 05:09 am (UTC)I wasn't into Gankutsuou yet at the time I saw the AMV, I saw it at a convention where I couldn't know I was spoiling anything for myself, and...yeah. *Hangs head in shame* I wish I hadn't, but it was kind of out of my control.
It'll still have the same impact. :P Trust me--it will.
No explicit stuff, thanks. I can deal with the suggestive stuff (ha--you should see some of the Naruto fanart I have saved. It's...interesting XD), but I'm not into explicit. ._.; I'd love it if you get some time to send it to me, though! :D
I still have stuff to burn for you. >.>; I think I might finish burning the CDs and manga for you and send them as soon as I can, and just have to send you Witch Hunter Robin another time. Running short on DVD-Rs and time...

Date: 2006-03-27 05:12 am (UTC)I hate spoiling things too, and every time I do it's unintentional and I get mad. I didn't dare allow myself to look at any Ganku stuff until I'd seen the entire series, though, so that worked out fine. I can't say the same for Saiyuki, though, or for Trigun. v.v
Sean Connery makes a kick-ass James Bond. :D

Date: 2006-03-27 05:21 am (UTC)Yeah...it's kind of weird when you're spoiled for shows before you've even seen any of said show. ._.; I watch a lot of AMVs, so this happens for me from time-to-time. I try to be careful, though.
