Momentous occasion of ending of Things
Just a quick fly-by entry because I am off on a plane in the morning (I feel like I've become such a jet-setter in the last few years! To think I'd never been on a proper plane in my life only two years ago! Now the idea of it just makes me feel jaded. :/)
I momentous thing has happened to me tonight, and I need to write it down for posterity. Tonight, after starting watching the series somewhere around ten years ago, I have finally watched the last episode of Sailor Moon.
...I can't even begin to describe my feelings right now.
To be honest I thought the ending was a bit lame and I wish they'd ended it at the end of season three. I liked the character development they did in this season, but the fact that _yet again_ Sailor Moon has to wait till EVERYONE IS DEAD before she actually does anything was a bit manufactured. All the character development in the season was pointing toward the scouts/senshi really starting to get used to their roles and accept that part of their lives, then suddenly Sailor Moon is kicking _less_ ass than she has in _every_other_battle_? Nuh. Would have worked if they'd put more work into the script and just had her say a few things like, "This fighting is endless, I refuse to keep having to hurt people," or, "Sometimes fighting is not the answer to a problem," or ANYTHING that would have explained her random extreme-pacifist opinion other than, 'Now I am naked for _no good reason_ and I will not try and stop you like every other bad-guy-boss in the series, I will fly towards you (naked) and commune with your inner love-love (naked) nature. (WHILE BEING NAKED FOR NO GOOD REASON!)'
And like, how many times did the inner-senshi DIE in that series???? Like, at least three times, right? (including the movies)
Anyway, it was good, I'm glad I've finally seen it, but, as usual, I could have done it so much better. Why don't these companies get the message and just hire me as the writer for like, every single anime already??? Sheesh!
Right well, to bed with me. I am in the North Island for a week now, (visitin the fam. YAYAYAY! Gonna see my cat. YAYAYAY!) So I'll be even _more_ non-hiatusy than I was before, (which, lets be honest, may seem to appear pretty similar to a hiatus, but it's not! I swear! I do I do!) but I'm hooooooping to get some writing done while I'm away. Got the next two scenes for BTS_08 all planned out so it may just happen. We'll see. Everyone be-well and I promise I will get back to my old levels of at least sporadic replies to things ^_^;; Page out!
