Weekend almost over. D= This is not cool.
You know what I hate? Backing up computer files. My laptop has been acting kind of funny, and I have been putting off backing stuff up for weeks. Finally, I'm doing it and it's taking FOREVER. SO BORING. I had backed most of my files up in August, but I'm doing all my pictures again just to be sure I have them. I have a few scattered song files I need to do, and of course, a few video. It wouldn't be so bad if I didn't have to sit here monitoring my computer to make sure it does it. I also organized ALL my pictures into folders. I love organized computers. I can't stand if my files AREN'T organized. So I figured I'd do a blog post while Norm here, gets the files ready to burn to disc.
So I finished Trigun yesterday. Wow. Just wow. Trigun has managed to wriggle it's way onto my favorites list. Just like Death Note, I can't believe I hadn't watched it sooner. However, unlike Death Note, I HAVE to re watch this one. It had a plot that you enjoy the first time through, but it all comes together the second time. You miss things you don't even realize the first time you watch a series. It's kind of like Tales of Symphonia. I played that game and I loved it, I thought it was really cool. Then I played it a second time and it REALLY hit me how awesome the story was. I, personally, LOVE series, games, books, ANYTHING like that.
Anyway, I think the most amazing thing about Trigun was how deep the story really was. They managed to make every episode hilarious, but they still got the point across. Not only that, but the serious moments were so well done. There was a perfect balance of humor, plot, depth...character development. Trigun gets a 10/10 in my book. The animation was amazing as well. The action scenes = LOVE.
**Trigun Spoilers ahead**
I almost broke down crying when Wolfwood died. I was so extremely sad. I didn't even SUSPECT that he was working for Knives. That plot twist caught me so off guard. It wasn't out of place though. It was ...perfect.
The funny thing about Trigun is that all the villains have these amazing designs. They're so DIFFERENT, and most of the time, they get 5 seconds of screen time...and then they die. The only ones that were even in more than one episode (and were ALIVE) was Legato, Knives, and Hornfreak. (...I'm serious, he was called Hornfreak. I just can't remember his first name.) Even Wolfwood who was in around 10 episodes, the minute it was shown that he was working for Knives he DIED.
At the end though, where Vash DIDN'T kill Knives and it shows he saved him instead of killing him, my friend pointed something out. WHAT do they do with him? That is an extremely good question. What DO they do with him? I mean it's pretty obvious his opinions on humans was never going to change. He wanted them all dead. That's not really something you can change.
So we decided.
They opened a bakery. Vash shows what humans are good for, MAKING DOUGHNUTS! Everyone wins! Except Wolfwood. Who died. D=
**end spoiler**
Vash and Wolfwood have to be some of the best characters I have ever seen. Vash has a 60,000,000,000$$ bounty on his head for destroying almost all the towns he's visited. He has recieved the nickname "Vash the Stampede". The irony is that he has never killed anybody with his own two hands and usually tries to save everyone's life. Even the people trying to kill him. It's impossible NOT to love him. He's whiney and scared one minute, then he's brave and ready to take on anything the next. He has a weakness for beer, and donuts and always hits his mark.
Then Wolfwood is the traveling Priest who carries a giant cloth covered cross. Which is really a giant gun. That...has to be the best thing ever. Really. He also has some of Vash's qualities, but he'll kill someone if he has to. He's a little more serious, but it appears he also loves food and beer. Even more so he loves his cigarettes.
The thing about Wolfwood and Vash is that they are BOTH right when it comes to their own beliefs on killing. You can see both of their sides perfectly, and I love that.
So yeah, Trigun is grade A materiel. This makes up for Vampire Knight ending as badly as it did. Much love Trigun, Much love.
Besides that, I watched Penelope on Thursday (I think.). Cute movie. I'm reading the book now too.
Friday night I went to a Dinner theater. That was a different experience. It was alright. The food kind of sucked, and compared to the playhouse we go to the acting didn't seem all that great. It was interesting though.
Ugh, barely through half of files backing up.
Love and Peace.
