Mostly CLAMP shit

[taotrooper]

1. Highlight of the day: Listening to Yamaguchi Kappei as Kentarou on the Duklyon CD drama. WHAT XD The worse part: he can pull it off. Man, that guy can do anything. Speaking of which, the fact that Kotobuki's seiyuu did also Il Palazzo on Excel Saga is JUST WAY TOO AMUSING XDDDDD If you don't know why or are unfamiliar with Excel Saga, just image-google him and see why it's funny shit.

2. Okay, so, CLAMP in Wonderland 2. Yeah, it was cute. I'm still kind of sour because they randomly had Spinel in there and daddy and sister don't, woes... or Mokonas' daddy?. But I still found it amusing and nice-looking despite of the complains I had at the beginning.

3. However, the ending I found even cuuuuuter X3 Eeeeeeeh Ioryogi with the tiny car-bicycle! And the random monkeys and usyagis XDDD

Why do I find Ioryogi extremely cute when he's so psychotic? Oh well.

(2-3 add: Both songs I find meh.)

4. These icons won't make you see The Wizard of Oz the same way ever again. Even if you haven't watch/read it like myself O.o I've only seen cartoon adaptations and all. Why are modern slang and Internet-speech funnier with oldies?

5. There was a point five, but it needs graphic demonstration for a crack crossover theory regarding Mononoke. Will do tomorrow, along with a related fic rec.

6. ETA: I knew I forgot something! I was waiting for all these episodes to come out to make a massive Avatar post. *facepalm*

Spinel was a good surprise for me. He even got to show off his big form! I was expecting only the Trio + Kero. You only ever get the main characters for this stuff.

That said, I did go "awww" when Himawari wasn't there with the HOLiC crowd, so...

I dunno, I always feel like the only reason Spinel is ever there in these things and CLAMP-PLA illusts is because he's a cute fluffy mascot (whether he liked it or not). It wasn't a matter of diversity, just cramming all the kawaii CLAMP things together. Spinel had almost the same role the globefish bouncing has in the Wonderland videos: just be there.

Now, Kakei and Saiga from Gohou Drug, I do consider variety because they're not cute or popular. Or Gingetsu with Ran in the background, even if you don't see their faces. Spinel? Not likely.

Now that I think about it, why on Earth is Doumeki even there, besides fanservice? Watanuki had both his own eyes, so Shizuka shouldn't be able to enter the shop yet... Waitaminute, why am I pulling canon logic on a crack crossover video?! *rolls eyes at herself*

Oh, obviously! I just expected to see Kero alone in the CCS mascot role.

I dunno, I can't get sour about the characteres who weren't there because I never *expected* them to be there. This was a main characters + fluffy mascots things, with a few extras in the series with very few people. *shrugs*

Hey, eso es lo primero que he pensado cuando he visto a Doumeki ahí... ¿cómo se supone que ha entrado en la tienda, si antes del eye plot Doumeki nunca tuvo ningún deseo?

Bah, es lo que dices, un crossover sin ningún sentido, pero a mí me ha encantado *_* y eso que la parte de TRC es de las "más pobres" (entrecomillas, porque la animación es para quitar le hipo), pero hay muchas cosas que me han encantado: el combate de Hikaru de AL, Seishirou en la clínica veterinaria, el combate por el fin del mundo okonomiyaki de Kamui y Fuuma xD, el momento LOL de Ashura, el combate Kero&Spi VS Iorogi etc.

Pues eso, para mí, la espera ha merecido la pena, y el action! al principio no me ocnvencía, pero al final la he amado <3.

Lo del okonomiyaki fue épico, y también el mundo de Clover y creepy!Seishirou. Yo no sé, creo que lo que le faltó a Tsubasa fue una punchline o pun, y es lamentable porque se supone que es Su Serie Más Larga. Me recuerda un poco al final del primer wonderland, cuando apelotonaron el resto de las series cuando se les acabaron los chistes, y les pusieron a posar todos serios (Shirahime, Duklyon, Shunkaden; los dos últimos, puestos en una luz seria, deprimía un poco considerando lo crack que son en verdad). Creo que fue eso lo que pasó, que ya querían cerrarlo con seriedad y al final fue nada más fanservice de pairings canon. Al menos CCS, que también fue una lata, tuvo a Kero y Suppi en su ilógica batalla con Team Kobato.

Mononoke crack crossovers? ♥

I blame you for the large amounts of me freaking out everytime I hear a cat, kids running around and a fish! That anime is flipping scary! But I've grown to love it oh so much ♥

[rainmage.livejournal.com]

With Okami, though. That nullifies the chances of it being understood by almost anyone XD

Is it? :O Maybe I'm not easily scared by horror fiction. I'm really sorry I inflicted this love/fright on you D

[hungrybookworm.livejournal.com]

I watch/read virtually no horror [unless you count 'Most Haunted' on TV as horror] so I suppose I'm not used to the scares! It's alright though cause I've realised that I quite like creepy horror! XD and the Medicine Seller XD

I'm not a big fan of Himawari, but.... I feel sorry for her with no love in this video. I think Doumeki is also *considered* a main character I think. Besides the point, if Doumeki, Maru and Moro is in the video, Himawari should be there, its for the sake of fanservice :/

anyway, DUKYLON! When you posted that they are "Doumeki and Watanuki" some sort of, I kinda curious and I think you posted that there's an English scanlation/translation of it. Yeah fanservice indeed

Kappei-kun! hahahahaha! He's talented, you know he did Subaru in Tokyo Babylon. and Koyapin (Koyasu) when I read the Dukylon, its like WTF he's like a character in Excel Saga, ... crack!

[rainmage.livejournal.com]

I've grown to like Himawari after her revelation, and it's a pity she didn't get to be there. Perhaps the scene was already too crowded, and they just sticked with the final love interest or something.

I'd say that Ken/Take are only similar in the bento/snark part, although the role are inverted (aka, the one making the bento is willing to do so, and the other one doesn't want it and complains about it). I like them better than D/W because they make me laugh louder, but it's one of those little things I disagree with the whole fandom.

[canon-4-life.livejournal.com]

I respect your opinion, since I'm a fan of D/W myself, but Dukylon is so much crack! Thanks for pimping Dukylon ^_~ Anyway for me I also love D/W, I just don't like the fangirls fandom, which makes me irritated ... sigh

I don't think it's crowded, coz Rg Veda had tons of characters too and they umm squished in? I really hope Himawari was there! I feel left out for her T__T

[rainmage.livejournal.com]

I think the difference is that RGV and X have a massive cast of main and semi-main characters, while in HOLiC the regulars are almost always the same people, with a lot of recurrent or non-recurrent minor characters.

[canon-4-life.livejournal.com]

well yeah that makes sense, but still only one character to fit in! ;__; oh well I think they did for the sake of fanservice
