Rah’ra, I’m afraid I haven’t even begun it. The anime’s reputation for a poorly-executed ending put me off, and the manga exists in the deep recesses of my list of things to read. I used it as an example in this post because I’m told that sex wasn’t the finish line.

Yes, I’m engaging in post necromancy, but have you finished Kare Kano? It’s very related to this post.

Nice read. Kinda like reading Michael’s blog, but with less $50 words and more anime allusions. Not that Mike’s blog was unreadable to me though. Hmmm~

@ Zeroblade: Owen uses a relatively high diction, complex syntax and long-ish sentences, but he still writes to be understood. Whereas I – in this post, at least, because of the subject – employ a lot of euphemisms, allusion, periphrasis and Latin, plus pure non sequiturs (reverse trap Hamlet, for example).

It doesn’t help that I’m not really putting forward an argument in this entry.

Unless you were being sarcastic?

Okay, I’d have t o admit that while I understand Owen’s posts most of the time, I couldn’t make much sense of this one. I wonder why.

jp: I remember that one – one of Amuro’s first instructors indicated you had to handle a Core Fighter carefully, like a woman in bed… then commented that the war had killed so many people, that none of the recruits probably knew what that was like, and they’d have to find them (the women) in the Zeon colonies.

hayase: It’s closer – although the manga digs into it more than the anime, IIRC, and ParaKiss touches on similar themes… if not so deeply.

Genshiken does touch on the subject more… but again, this is mostly in the manga, and they carefully cut away when anything like that’s happening.

@ Martin: Heh, I’m glad I was able to brighten your day. I did once know a Catholic who was a part-time beekeeper, but as far as I can recall he was perfectly healthy and happily married . . .
