December Order In

So. I have a very large need for light distractions right now.

Code Geass bundle #2: Discs #3 and #4, taking me through episode 17. Obligation buy.
Tenchi (Original TV Series): Watching GXP recently got me interested in the original series again. I expect to be disappointed. I remember tearing my hair out over what seemed to be filler, thinking, “good lord, is this EVER going to go anywhere!” Of course, my expectations are different now. And hey, I originally dismissed GXP as a lame effort to cash in on the name with a spin-off, so who knows? (C’mon, three words: Tenchi in Tokyo. Tell me I wasn’t completely justified in thinking that GXP was a rip-off.)
Neo-Ranga Because Steven can’t find all the unknown gems! Or, uh, crap.

Ok. I’m back outta here now.

    I’m afraid that you’re in for manure, m’friend. Confused mess of a show, confused mess of a release.

    Yeah, but do you mean Neo Ranga or Tenchi in all it’s multiple incarnations? (j/k)

    😛

    Huh. Good question, actually. I remember enjoying Tenchi TV when it first came out, though, as you say, that was many years ago and my standards are different now.

    Neo Ranga was just one of the worst translations I ever saw. Not just “what the hell is everyone talking about?”, but actually contradictory to the original over and over and over. It’s literally easier for me to follow with the subtitles off.

    …I know I liked Tenchi. I have the three movies which I actually enjoy and watch from time to time. I’m reasonably sure that I’d still like the series if I were to watch it again. I keep meaning to get it but…hell, I’m broke as is.

    And, yes, Tenchi in Tokyo was miserable.
