ANOTHER REASON why I didn't like the way Hagaren ended:

Ed's in Germany and Roy's, well, whatever that country is called, that's where he is. Different WORLDS. (And Hughes is still dead.) It fills me with regret to see the series end this way because now that it has, what are the fans going to do about canon? Ignore it? Make up their own? I mean, it's nice to have Ed here, but the old way isn't going to work anymore. There is no more need and no more room to speculate, in one of those after-series fanfics, about a happy ending where Ed still has his automail but Al has his body back, Ed and Roy are fucking the bejeezus out of each other, and Hughes is alive to cuddle Roy and his family. They can still screw during the series, when Ed is, oh, TWELVE, but pedophilia is just not the same. (HughRoy has a great deal more time to work with, but the problem with that couple is that it does have to end. Gut-wrenchingly. And then there's the adultery.) I am mourning the loss of hope that these stories could happen. It's like the anime people (maybe that rat bastard director, but I'm feeling benevolent today) have officially said, "Party's over, kids. Pack up and go home now." And it's SOOOO NOT FAIR.

And you want to know a secret? I love RoyEye because I love Roy. Hawkeye's a great match for him, but...she kind of bores me. So yeah, I'm kind of dissatisfied with the way those two ended up, too. I much prefer everybody hanging around together and having sex rather than set couples. (Which is to say, no, no AlWin. It'd be cute, and it's convenient if Roy and Ed are going to get married, but EdWin is the one with a spark and you know it.)

I didn't like the ending either. I think it was pulled out of someone's ass, just like the concept for FFX-2.

[moumusu.livejournal.com]

Yeah, but FFX-2 was fun and sparkly and filled with delicious viewer service. The music sucked, okay. Uh. That was bad. But I liked the henshin bits.

If the Hagaren ending came out of anybody's ass, it was Mizushima Seiji, and he's got a fat one. It's a real shame.

So, Hagaren's finally over. . . Time for you to pick a new boy flavor!!!

Btw, I tried calling Meta in the past coupla days but Verizon tells me that the number is no longer in service. Wtf? Did your mom not pay the bill or somethin?

Osenmikocha! Bwahahahah! XDDD

[moumusu.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't be surprised. I think I've had it off, and then there actually is some trouble with the bill.

Hagaren's over, but what are you so excited about? I'M STICKING WITH ROYED.

THANK GOD HAGAREN IS FINALLY OVER You know, I still haven't watched ep 37...not much motivation, really, unless there's some sort of blatant Roy shower scene and we all know THAT'S not happening.

...Your previous comments about the future of the fandom reminded me of that rant I have yet to type up, about sucky shows getting lots of attention simply because of the fanon possibilities. And how everyone says the show is SO GREAT when the only thing they know about it is from the fanfiction they read, and...ARG. (I mean, hell, we all did it with Gundam Wing, but still...)

(I'm also not refering to you with any of that, just venting.)

[moumusu.livejournal.com]

There is a Roy shower scene. And he's masturbating to pictures of Havok, too. Didn't you know? I'M LYING HELP ME I know you're not really referring to me, but was it that bad? ...did I need to pay more attention to Loki and Tactics? (I still can...)

And you should write that rant, but you don't mean Hagaren, right? It's been annoying, but I think Hagaren isn't NEARLY as bad as five guys and their personal mechas of love and justice, mired in poorly explained politics. And what about Kyou Kara Maou? Pure unadulterated stupid sex, but it's FUN. In any case, make sure to blast fans for being crazy, rather than anime shows for being stupid.

[runan.livejournal.com]

Oh, hell no, pay attention to the shows you like, that's what blogs are for...and no, Hagaren wasn't that bad, except for the heaping piles of SHEER ANGST that I think could have been avoided. I don't know, it just kind of lost its charm for me rather quickly.

Also, the thing about Kyou Kara Maou is that it isn't TRYING to take itself seriously, which is what makes it so amusing. Speaking of which...*wanders off in search of more*

Yeah, same here. Sooth mah wounds with sweet emotion blonde princes.

I adore the fact that Ed lives in Germany, though. Gods. Even Munich ... +giggles childishly+ I always loved Bavaria and wanted to live there. Lots of mountains, lots of German beer, lots of Lederhosen and all of Bavaria is reeking with catholicism and conservativeness. I lurve Bavaria and Munich ;_; (Ed could go to the Oktoberfest and drink beer until he collapses! @@;)

I quite like it that there were no "canon" pairings for Ed and Roy. But Roy going pirate and Archinator made Hagaren suck, somehow. It made me a sad and whiny twat.
