or in better terms "She, the Ultimate Weapon." After reading [livejournal.com profile] wardove's entry yesterday about getting the dub dvd in the mail, had me wanting to dig out my subs and finally watch this short series. It's 13eps long but pending on the kind of person you are, if you don't like how some anime ends, then I don't recommend you going on after #10, but if you are the kind that is curious like me, watch it all the way through. Granted I can keep in my head that the series ended at #10 cause to me it makes a bit more sense that way and puts me in a better mood. Though if I didn't go on, I wouldn't have been able to see the love sessions between Shuuji and Chise considering that it took that long for them to really do anything.

Its a weird storyline but the story for the characters has a very strong point of conflicting emotions, feelings, etc going on that sometimes makes you wanna hit something. One set of characters feelings I got into were Tetsu (who is voiced by Miki Shinichirou) and Chise. *sniffles* I lost count on how many tissues I went through this series but I didn't go through the whole box at work thank god. The animation isn't as odd as I thought it was going to be when Dove first showed me pics of it so it doesn't really take too long to get use to.

I felt that the ending was too weird for me, then again the whole war situation was a bit confusing too since they never really said who they were fighting. It sounded like other countries were attacking but were aliens also involved, considering the weird shit that was also going on?? Chise herself reminded me of an alien in a human form.

They also did something for this anime that I wished certain other series would do, such as Gungrave for various reasons. They did a "behind the scenes" extra talking with the comic's creator, the director, seiyuu's, etc about everything regarding the original idea of the story, feelings of the characters, etc. I think that if they did something like this for Gungrave, it would help explain why the director went with the ideas that he did, especially since your getting a small idea from just the game itself. I mean I'd like to hear more from them on how they can build up something so huge with a background with so little given in the first place. Especially as to why they went with the ending that they did.

Saishuu Heiki Kanojo isn't such a bad series, its more less of how much emotional will power a person has to get into it (and try not to be confused at the same time or perhaps it was just the blonde in me ^_~). To make matters worse, I actually wouldn't mind watching it again, but perhaps at another time.

I always hate holidays and bdays, especially when it comes to my mom. This woman is soooooooooooo hard to buy for!!! What do you get a woman who seems like she has everything that she wants? (in some aspect). I don't do flowers since they die and I would send a plant but I don't even know if she keeps plants anymore. She likes Boyd's Bears but I don't think we have any outlets in Texas like they do in back home in Gettysburg (even though my older sis is getting her a bear from there). My sis said about getting her something that has Texas on it, shirt wise or other. I can't even remember if the mall had a TX store or not and I really don't feel like running that far to the mall and made a trip for nothing. Then sis said something about mom wanting new towels. I ain't getting her towels or anything that requires mom's opinion, she can get that stuff herself. So needless to say, we just opted to get her a Wallyworld giftcard. When all else fails, why not? Plus it makes sense too since I don't live in the same state, this makes it easier on both of us.

Then looking for cards, some of them I'm standing there wiping at my eyes. Damn mushy cards! What will mom think!? ^_~ Though I have noticed the cards she has sent us these past few yrs have been pretty mushy too, something that is unlike mom to do as well as us doing too.

I do believe that to this day, mom still has some of the mother's day gifts that I made her while in 1st-3rd grade. In fact, I made her this coupon holder in 2nd grade and she wore that thing out!!! About 5-6 yrs ago, she mentioned that she needed something new to hold her coupons cause my holder was FINALLY falling apart. I couldn't believe that she was still using it. *sniffles and huggles nanny*
