Updates! The manga, game, and movie invasion

Hellboy II: The Golden Army

Pretty much everything I'd hoped it would be, and then some, since fortunately I wasn't asking for plot twists or subtlety or anything. It can stay.

Bleach 317

That color spread is gorgeous. Ichigo and Rukia's reunion was adorable. I fangirl Orihime more with just about every passing chapter.

DGM 166

I so didn't even realize that was Allen until I read it again, I are inattentive. Also, Mana, whaaat. Goddamn the art in this series is gorgeous.

Odin Sphere

Finished playing through Gwendolyn's story, started on Cornelius's. The pooka are so cute aaaah. Oswald/Gwendolyn can stay. I kind of want to drabble for them, but I guess I should play Oswald's story before I write anything involving him. Myrissss This game gets really hard -- I die on every boss, mini-boss, and some random battles -- but since death is totally painless, it was less a matter of difficulty and more a matter of patience.

Bleach: I found their reunion more amusing than anything. Rukia was like "Yeah, I'm fine. Now quit screwing around and go save Orihime, asshole!"

That's actually exactly what I liked about their reunion. XD It's exactly what I like about them. They're no-nonsense, down-to-earth, all about the important stuff. No fluffy reunions for Rukia and Ichigo, no sir! She tells him to quit mooning around in warmfuzzy over his friends coming back and go rescue the girl.

Despite all the wibbling from fangirls, touting reunions as if they were the deciding factor of your chosen ship (and I'm sure people will just claim I'm bitter about it because Ichigo and Orihime "didn't get a reunion", which I've heard but I don't know what that's even supposed to mean) (some days I don't know if I should just unfriend certain comms; I like bitching about the things they say but I don't know if it's worth the daily aggravation) I don't actually think reunions supercede all else in canon. It would've been really damn tacky to do anything more while Ulquiorra was pondering putting dents in Orihime to try and find her heart.

Anyway, yeah, the Rukia/Ichigo reunion was about one panel of "yay, she isn't dead!" and one page of "oh yeah, gotta go save Orihime" but I like their relationship for precisely that: it isn't this mushy, overblown thing. They're just important to each other. And that's all.
