Pwnd

I bought Final Fantasy VIII today, instead of paying up LJ. I'll do that next week. Guess how much I paid. Give up? 20 euros!

I downloaded the new Bleach OP and ED videos right now.

THEY SERIOUSLY ROCK!

I think I liked this opening more than the previous one. Serious Shinigami love! <3 Seeing characters like Shunsui, Ukitate, Byakuya or Yoruichi posing and/or fighting was so awesome in so many levels. And the first half minute! ALL the important shinigami, dude, (vice)captains or not.

I'm so dorky because I was excited because my crack OTP was one after the other... Which is logical, as they're in the same division and all... But still! The music made a long pause of at least half a second on the transition from Isane to Hanatarou. Color me nuts.

Apart from the rocking hollow!Ichigo thing, has anyone noticed that Aizen's face was more on the shadows than it should be? Dun dun dun!

Oh, and, deus ex machina!Ishida in the OP was teh smex!!! <3

The ending was cool, even if the song is meh, because they didn't forget the family (poor Isshin, they threw Kon at his face), classmates (wee, Keigo and Mizuiro!) and the Urahara-tachi. Chad and Ishida got cool screentime (not as much as Orihime, but they don't mind at all). But the best thing was Urahara and Yoruichi POSING TOGETHER! They're SO fucking each other CANON!

Haha, good point about Urahara & Yoruichi. I thought that too but blamed it on my uber-fangirly mood.

The subtext in the manga is so strong, I think they're adapting the whole thing in the anime. Might be my own paranoia, though (this is coming from the fangirl who's reading too much from the fourth division's two seconds on the OP because it involves a crack pairing of hers; no comments...) Still, grrrr at the credits all over her face, they won't let anyone iconize it ¬¬U

Well, maybe it only applies to CLAMP, but the crackiest pairings more often than not become canon somewhere down the line. I'm not caught up with the Bleach manga but I kinda know who you're implying in the 4th Div, so you never know, maybe something will come out of it.

Considering everyone from that division disappeared on the latest installments, and they never interacted in front of us... it's a random fanon thing from me, really.

She's the 4th division vicecaptain (tall girl with purpleish short hair and small braids), and he's... well, Hanatarou. There's a big chance she'd become a lesbian and feel one-sided love over captain Unohana instead, though. Heh.

The OP is AMAZING, the visuals, the song (though I already liked another one by High and Mighty Color, this one is way better, maybe because it's "harder" and that's just my type of music), the animation... agh, now I can't stop watching it and I should be finishing two fanlistings instead. The ED is not that great, but it's pretty good anyway. I'd say it's my second favourite, after Houkiboshi. Maybe it's stupid, but I'm thinking of catching up with the anime only because of this OP ^^u

And UraYoru is SO canon, yay XD

The UraYoru makes the ED good. I'm just not a Bleach ED person as I tend to hate them all, only having the animation to compensate. But the OP! It's perfect!

Byakuya necesita tanto amor. No puedo creer que tarde tanto en tomarle cariño, en fin hay que admitir que la entrada de Shunsui y Ukitake con sus zanpaktous gemelas es de las mejores escenas =)!

Y la animacion va a la par con la musica... wow IchiHollow se luce ^^! no puedo esperar la traduccion...

Ah.. Hanatarou is love

Pues yo estoy tardando, porque sigo viendo a Byakuya como un insensible sobrevalorado *esquiva tomatazos*

Shunsui y Ukitate = <3! Si no me gustara tanto el Shunsui/Nanao, me vería shippeándolos O.o

Shunsui y Ukitake son SO MUCH LOVE <333, aunque definitivamente mi amor es Byakuya y no hay palabras para describir lo mucho que lo amo. Sigh. El opening me encantó, sobretodo porque conozco HIGH and MIGHTY COLOR desde su debut y sabía que no me iban a decepcionar (además que no soy casi nada o nada fond del j-pop). La animación, la música, el video, todo es perfecto. Al principio con la SS al completo, el drag-queendarth!Ichigo, ¿¿y Yumichika?? BISHOOOUNEN!!. Me encantó también la parte de Shunsui y Ukitake, Soi Fong en la lluvia (muy nostálgico), Yoruichi peleando (best.bishoujo.eva.), Byakuya e Ichigo, agh, vamos todo y acabo antes XD.

El ending está bien la animación, pero la música no me gusta T_T, por lo menos está mejor que el Happy People. Ese era como para ponerles un cartel a los de Pierrot en plan "Save the music"

A mí es que de plano no me gusta ninguna música de ending XDDDDDD

A mí Byakuya me parece meh. Renji me parece aún más meh. *esquiva tomatazos* Ellos dos siempre me han dado un poco igual como personajes, me temo. Pero Shunsui y Ukitake con sus espadas gemelas! Weeee!

Yoruichi siempre es teh roxxorz *la idolatra*
