ranka going away smells of a setup for a potential second season. unless of course she comes back (likely).

might not be a good idea for klan to do that. risk of hairball choke edit: yay! i can see my new avatar now. took like... just 4 days

it was terrible. resolution like keyhole and laggy as a sleep-deprived sloth

will it feature silicone parts?

it was also shown to open when alto shot down the temjin look-alike. in the tech thread speculations are: - added ventilation - fore-grip (since it slides back after opening) - it just looks cool

i prefer it that way because it takes sympathy out of the equation. potentially makes the situation tragic, though

many thanks! "Won’t someone please softly stroke the outline of the void? The words of love that couldn’t be saved Were erased by the waves of time So I want the answer once more Crucified by fate, the Northern Star is burning I scratched you out and made you a cloudy blur But still, I once loved how you laughed sweetly" wow. just wow.

there 'ya go. nanase will be fine and dandy after a few episodes. no warranties though on force majeure or acts of god...er, vajra

anyone got translated lyrics of the Northern Cross full version? "Crucified by destiny, the North Star burns" kinda got me.

be very careful.... we have nanase...

is there a way to turn off karaoke lyrics/subtitles? i find they take too much screen real estate

isn't kobe or wagu steak considered japanese cuisine? man, i've been crazy about those since college. specially with lots of tabasco though that probably isn't very japanese amen to that. just listened to the full versions of Lion and Northern Cross yesterday and my head is still spinning. i guess that makes me a froot loop too

and during the mid-song instrumental sheryl would seem to wobble and falter due to her condition, but she would just shake it off and catch her breath, then be at performance level again when the chorus rolls in, and belt out the last long note til the end. i'm not looking forward to it, but from when sheryl sneezed at the poolside, i can't shake the thought. in this case, i'd be perfectly happy to be ridiculed that i was wrong.

hmm.. cooking again. i hope it's not steak or anything with pineapple

rewatched ep20 to psyche myself for tomorrow's episode (and nearly choked up again. damn that diamond crevasse song. gets me all the time) this time around, i noticed sheryl latched onto something canaria's husband said: "Give up my life" then she started singing.. on the otherhand, a ranka sacrificial death might be interesting for a redemption twist, but somehow i don't see it in her character. though she might "go away" in a different manner, taking the vajra with her.

i wouldn't, but mostly just for the sake of my hearing. can you imagine all the squealing that would entail?

i'm still conflicted about how i feel about it, but if sheryl dies singing the last song (literally giving it her all), she will be immortalized.

ranka will succumb to her hurt, then to hate, and will wander into the cold embrace of the dark side of the V-force.

mouse slipped i'll see if i can learn that masking thing and see if i get a cleaner cut

got bored during a telecon so played a bit with the magic eraser

i pray to the photoshop gods in this forum to make ranka magically disappear... while sheryl was unbelievably hot in the solo pic wearing the same outfit, i kinda like her silent confidence on this one.

this bird must be selling very well. i spent nearly a whole day combing the toy stores in HK and couldn't find one until late afternoon. unfortunately, it's from a mall where the proliferation of fake stuff has been rumored. does any one know of any fake YF-21's? or better yet, how can i tell if mine is fake? looks good from the box viewing window though the stand is less clear than i thought it would be. any info appreciated. thanks btw, got it for a little under US$160. not sure if that's any indication

actually, even with michel gone and even if klan dies (ouch! wait, don't throw stones yet, i said IF!) the snooping into sheryl's past and origins (or at least her illness) can still continue. got a feeling the gang will discover some mighty interesting things when the gang cleans out michel's locker..

argh, missed by a few days! but thanks for the info.
