The Big O

[Ranlsa]

Dorothy looks like she came out of The Handmaid's Tale.

That girl is soo cute!!

Oh man, it's the Joker again!

A peice of meteor was the thing mistook for an angel?!

[ALchemist81]

I think this is the first time the viewer ever becomes pi$$ed off at Alex Rosewater just like Roger Smith.

[ALchemist81]

"What power do you have?"

BIG O!!!

And now here begins the chief action sequence of the episode!

[ALchemist81]

Too bad this isn't being aired on the same night as FLCL 4: Full Swing. It has the same premise: big object is crashing to earth; hero must stop it!

Steve Blum just adds so much unique attitude to the characters he plays. Just one of the reasons I respect him.

Not so much attitude in Dotachin in Durarara!!; at least not so far. I guess it's more of a 2000's thing.

And BTW, I'm trying to stay up till 3:30 AM to be able to see it for the first time. Though I guess I could go to bed and watch it on my DVR tomorrow...

Ya mean Jungle Cruse ep of Ghost In The Shell?  Be warned, that ep is GORY!

"What powers do you possibly have?" Oh you poor deluded unknowing man!

Never ask that of Roger Smith! " BIG O, SHOW TIME!!"

[Ranlsa]

Aw, Dorothy is learning how to play!

Oh boy, that jerk also has a mega duce! NOW the fun begins!Q

So, join me for Ghost In The Shell? But it is a dark one tonight!

[ALchemist81]

Durarara!! encores at 4:30 ET/3:30 CT.

And the remains of the "angel" did indeed become an "angel" for that little girl! For one night she's able to see the sunlight...or at least specks of gold falling from the sky...or something.

Either way, I wouldn't open my mouth and try to eat a piece of that like it were a snowflake.

ON to Ghost In The Shell!

[Ranlsa]

I know. it's beautiful to look at but I'd be afraid of it burning my throat.

[Ranlsa]

Anyone here tonight for Big O? Anyone?

[ALchemist81]

Wow, been on for like 7 minutes now!

That speech by McConnohie to open the episode (as Seebach/Schwarzwald) was epic!

We all know WHAT happens in this series, but there is still some mystery as to WHY it happens. What significance the events of this episode have to the eventual outcome...

[ALchemist81]

It's really surreal to be listening to this at the same time as the Lady Gaga concert on iHeartRadio...

[Ranlsa]

Something we thought we'd never see in anime- a Christian Church and people praying!

Dorothy taking piano lessons.

Oh boy..I think we;'re gonna see our old friend the Joker again!

[Ranlsa]

"All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy"

"All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy"

"All work and no play mnakes Jack a dull boy."

[ALchemist81]

Instro had such a great episode devoted to himself in Episode 6. Here he has a cameo as an important spiritual aid for the people, but it's only a cameo, like the sea people in the last episode!

It happens more often than you think.  Trinity Blood and Chrono Crusade both use the Catholic Church as an important plot device, and there's biblical imagery aplenty in shows like Evangelion!  And even FMA:B has bibilical imagery in the 7 Homunculi being the 7 Deadly Sins!

[Ranlsa]

Big O's got a brother?

[Ranlsa]

It's the joker again!

Make that Doctor Octopus!

Uh...Norman? Where are ya going?

[ALchemist81]

Leviathan is scary; anything he touches turns to sand!

But everything that Roger's getting into now is FAR more dangerous than that!

[ALchemist81]

Nope, not an archetype. Just your average mechanical dragon with a ridiculously powerful weapon!

[Ranlsa]

Big O!!

Dorothy is in there with him this time!

ACTION!!  (I do NOT want anyone saying Steve Blum is not a great actor after this!!)

[Ranlsa]

Wendee Lee!

Whoa...he was an andriod?! Get out of here!

On to Ghost In The Shell! Yoyu coming?

[ALchemist81]

Yeah, I really don't know what exactly was going on with that guy. It could be that he was an android, or maybe he's a cyborg like Alan Gabriel and Mokoto Kusanagi...?

Wow, that was a great transition there! ON to Ghost In The Shell indeed!

[XenopusTex]

Glad to see Big-O back, too bad its so late.  WOuld be better than Diorama and Cake-ishy.  Put that garbage on late-night instead of the good stuff.

Eh, last time it got aired at 1:30. Now it's 3/2 Central. That's not as bad as 4:30/3:30 Central like it was for over a year in 2009 and 2010!

Man, Beck is such an idiot! And Roger's a notorious oversleeper (kinda like me)!

[Ranlsa]

I so agree with you on kekkashi!!

I also agree with Roger. Why not sleep late every opnce in a while? Of course with a walking alarm clock like Dorothy...
