Thanks for the spoilers. I'll be very eager to watch Stranded. :)

Heh, yeah, one of the few things I laughed at in this episode. :anime:

You didn't miss much. It was the classic "hand over the crown to the older responsible person that we don't even know" ending.

The only thing good about this episode was the fighting scene. Even that got boring after the same thing over and over again. Plot was horribly predictable before the episode even aired. I didn't even like the R/S scenes, and I'm about as large of an R/S fan as you can get.

I will, I was actually looking forward to this series. But that doesn't mean that I'm going to let the few good qualities cover up the glaring bad ones.

Post #52.

Yeah, I'm pretty disappointed and mad to make a real post. But DrFlask summed up my opinion pretty well.

Solid? Are you kidding me? :shrug:

That was a horribly pathetic orgy of lame characterization and clichés. What the hell happened? This was a HUGE let down.

I walk all the way down to the comic book store and guess what. It's sold out. It's the freaking first day of release! I went at 2 in the afternoon, thinking there would be more than enough copies left. Geez, for a comic that is supposedly doing badly, I don't understand how it can fly off the...
