Fate / Stay Night

Oh Gawd, that was some nice anime.

Really, more anime series should stick to their plot like Fate / Stay Night. I mean, how often did I feel the urge to slam my head against the wall in frustration as some Deus Ex Machina hops across the screen and twists the events so that everyone "lives happily ever after".

It's not like I'm against happy endings, but far too often they're absolutely irrational and forced. You can't go all the way towards a sad ending and then lack the balls to take the goddamn final step, it's unsightly. If there's supposed to be an end the plot should lead up towards it, not away from it to make a U turn at the very last moment.

Though what really impressed me about the ending was that Shirou wasn't made into the fan-girl-magnet mental-brainwreck-emo-boy(*cough*Sasuke*cough*) after Saber's gone back to her time, but stays true to his ideals. It shows that Type moon doesn't discard Plot-Devices (In this case Shirou's idealism) convinently once they are not needed any longer, ...

'nuff ranting, time for a confession. I did cry a little in the end, ...

..., what's up with that satisfied smirk? *cracks his knuckles*

Bloggin' Eh?

Whew, never thought I'd ever go through the trouble of creating a blog, but since I've got an overly big ammount of freetim right now it can't really hurt, eh?

I guess you could expect all kind of junk from this blog, but in the end it will probably go down to my hype for Anime, Metal, Mecha, Computer Games, Computer Graphics and Geometry. Maybe I'm gonna throw in some of the stuff I read, too.

So long and thanks for the fish...
