(no subject)

So I suffered something of a minor fiction burnout yesterday... heh. I spent four hours or so reading College Roomies from Hell, which is not as good as it used to be. I liked it when it was all crack, but now it's serious crack and not as good. And it has not one, but TWO love trianges. You guys all know how I feel about love triangles.

Meh. Oh well.

So after that, I decided that before I went to bed, I would watch an episode of Gundam Seed. Just one episode.

One episode that turned into four.

Now, Gundam Seed has a very good plot and appealing characters, and I love the series. But it's also terribly, TERRIBLY sad. More so than Gundam Wing, and that series had its depressing moments too. Any series that's about war is going to be sad, anyway.

It took me at least two hours to get to sleep last night.

I woke up this morning and watched two more episodes. Then found out my sister was on the computer doing homework, so watched another one. Yesterday at this time, I'd watched up to episode 30. I just finished 37 now.

I still have yet to see those three stoners guys who are in the third opening sequence. I have a good idea of who they are, but haven't seen them yet. I think they're in the next episode.

Also noticed that the second little mid-point thing has Kira and Laccus now instead of Athrun and Laccus. Cute!

Also, are we supposed to care about what's happening to Fllay? I wish they'd just kill her off already and get it over with. Why the hell she's lasted this long is beyond me... I can't decide who I hate more, her or La Cruz (or whatever his name is). Someone should just collapse a building on them.

I think I might polish this series off pretty quickly now. It's gotten to the point where I just want to keep watching.

On the other hand, I watched an episode of Gundam Wing before I went to bed, and reflected on how much more that series appeals to me. Don't get me wrong, I love both series, but Wing is just... more appealing to me than Seed. I couldn't say why.
