nausicaa83In spite of real life stealing all my energies, it's time to do a nice fandom post! I missed doing them. ^^
First, all the diatribe with Community. The three final episodes aired last week, and they were superb. Amazing. They should have been aired one by one, they deserved more. We had an arcade game episode, an elaborate heist one, and the Finale. Yes, because shortly after learning that it was coming back for a fourth season, we had the horrible news that Sony fired Dan Harmon, the creator and showrunner. Now, with any other show, I'd say let's give the new season a chance. But Community is too much Dan Harmon's creature. Maybe what they'll do next will be a nice show, no doubt, but it will be a different show, with the same actors. What made Community so special was that it was unique. So, we had a wonderful run, three great years, and it's over. At least we had a nice finale, way better than what they did to Pushing Daisies.
Then, the Supernatural finale. My usual reaction to a SPN season finale is a sea of tears. They always leave me an emotional wreck. Last year's finale didn't make me cry, but it short-circuited my brain, and left me mumbling "what the actual fuck we're all doomed" to the screen for a good hour. This year, after singing and shouting along to Born To Be Wild (I love that song!), I had an ending full of enthusiastic "I KNEW IT" and throwing my fist in the air. Oh, I so knew it. And I'm so excited about the next season. And I'm actually happy I wasn't left an emotional crying wreck, for once. :D
I just found out the first Berserk dvd comes out in Japan tomorrow. That's the Egg Of The King one, that covers the first part of the Golden Age arc, and judging from the trailers, it's stunning. Not to mention, Berserk is my favourite manga. I love it so much it's part of my soul. I swear, the way I love that manga, it's not even funny. Years ago we had a tv series, it was mediocre, and they censored most of the violence out, while these movies look like they're faithful to the source. Thank you. It's a very mature story, there's no way you can weaken it to appeal to a wider audience without spoiling it all.
Back to my original point, with the dvd out, we'll finally have a subbed version! I can't wait to see it! \o/
