Did the Isle of Man government start an exciting new festival called the Running of the Retards and hold it in Port Erin today? It was as if everywhere I turned, some gill-flapping, web-handed, buck-toothed monstrosity was oozing along the pavement in front of me, blocking the entire fucking road, forcing me to walk in their Slurmtrail and moving at an approximate speed of 1/1000000000000000000000000000000000000000th of a mile per year.

I did have a minor cheer-up though - I went for a ride on the steam trains (after a wait of about ten thousand years to wait for the flipper-footed foot traffic to get out of my fucking way) and some slack-jawed dribbling halfwit kept sticking it's head out of the window, only to get slapped in the face by a passing bramble. Totally worth having to listen to it whimper all the way into Douglas for the sheer look of pained suprise on it's face when it happened. Read the fucking safety warnings, dumbass! They apply to whatever-the-fuck hideously mutated species you are as well as regular humans!

On the subject of hideously mutated, I started rewatching Bleach a few days ago. I've never seen all of it and the last time I saw it was a few years back. Anyway, I remembered a few things (Aizen's a douchebag, Renji isn't, mostly) but I apparently managed to block out the image of that one creepy conehead scientist dude's sword transforming into a dead foetus on top of a catapillar. Sick and wrong, you guys. Sick. And. Wrong.

Everything about Kurotsuchi Mayuri (said creepy scientist) is sick and wrong. :)

[froodle]

He melts! Who does that? Oh, there is just no need for him and his creepy dead-baby sword and conehead and sidekick who is a mannequin or something. Poor sad Glasses Kid! Imagine having that guy be the first Big Bad you came up against - at least Chad got the pink samurai dude and Orihime got Kenpachi. The Glasses Kid had his Big Bad cherry popped by the freakiest freak of all the freaks!

[incandescens]

Oh, it gets worse. Poor Ishida (Glasses Kid) is definitely a Mad Bad Scientist Magnet. The next time they run into another big set of enemies, he gets to meet their insane perverse scientist too.

[froodle]

Is he insane in an AWESOME way, or just in a super-horrible way? Because I'm in favour of wacky science adventure, even the evil kind, as long as it isn't gross.

[incandescens]

Well, um...

... he has tentacles. When he wants to. And he is Evil.

But he does also have glasses and pretty pink hair.

[froodle]

Tentacles are usually a harbinger of sick-and-wrong, but I do approve of pink hair and glasses, so I guess I'll keep an open mind.

[incandescens]

He won't be showing up for a while, in any case.

[froodle]

I have plenty of time to prepare myself then XD

Yay, Bleach! I'm so behind on the manga, need to catch up! Probably on the anime too, actually. But yeah, Mayuri is pretty sick in general. And Ishida is awesome. *runs off to catch up*

[froodle]

I've never read the manga - it's like Kenshin, once it gets beyond about twenty volumes, I see it in the comic book store and just give up. I asked my brother if he'd like it for Christmas and he basically said the same thing - too much of it, too far behind, never going to catch up, pick something more accessible. So I made him read Angel Sanctuary, hah.

I'm up to the bit in the anime where Rukia is about to get executed, and the spear thing turns into a phoenix, and Ichigo is like, "NO PHOENIX GO AWAY!" and then Rukia and Renjii ran away, then the phoenix went all aggro and Ichigo was like, ohshit, and then Consumption Guy (long white hair, coughs up blood all the time and lies around looking sickly a lot) comes along and he has a shield or something and I think it set fire to the phoenix. Which makes no sense, but then again this is a show where swords can be dead baby/catapillar hybrids or monkeysnakes or some sour old guy in a cloak, so I do not question it.

There is just NO NEED for Mayuri. He is way beyond acceptable levels of villianous creepiness. It offends me to see him.

[incandescens]

Consumption Guy and Drunk Guy In Pink Kimono (who happens to be one of my favourites, so sue me) have dug out an old Secret Weapon that alows them to blow up the Phoenix. This is all very improper behaviour on their part. Old Guy Yamamoto will have to spank them. Hard.

[froodle]

The pink samurai is awesome! I love when he fights Chad and the Stern Hot Librarian sidekick is tossing rose petals and he's like, "That's enough" and she dumps the whole basket on top of him and Chad is just like, "......" at their weirdness.

I'm going to assume you don't LITERALLY mean spanking, since Yamamoto is old and baldie and that would make me cry inside.

[incandescens]

I am far too fond of Pink Samurai and Stern Hot Librarian, and have written way too much fanfic about them. Also occasionally involving Consumption Boy.

As for spanking... well, let's just say that those darn kids had better get off his lawn, Or Else.

[froodle]

I completely approve of such fic in both a Consumption Boy and non-Consumption Boy flavour.

I'm going to try and watch it tonight, but I will have my emergency pillow-shield at the ready in case there is actual spanking.

[incandescens]

Good luck. :)

It's not that hard to get into at however many volumes there are now. I did, about a year ago. Bought a box set and became obsessed. But the anime sticks so close to the manga that you don't really need to read it, I guess. You can watch the anime up to date, then switch to the manga fairly seamlessly.

But occasionally, the anime invents its own storylines, and they are nowhere near as good as the real stories taken from the manga. You're coming up to the end of season three. There follows two seasons of the 'Bount' storyline. It's okay, but it's extra to the real story and fit in a bit awkwardly. My advice would be to skip it, finish the real story up to date, then go back for the extra bits. That's what I did after getting through that one. Still not watched some of the extra stuff, but it's no real loss.

[froodle]

Does the manga ever explain why the dude with a fox head has a fox head?

[prepare4trouble.livejournal.com]

Not that I remember. I think he just does.
