darkelf105Yes, yes, I'm sure all of you are bored with my rambling about the Knights of the Zodiac, but I don't care. I'm not getting bored with this anime anytime soon.
Recaps from the recent viewing (which, alas, puts me at one episode to go until all of the discs the library owns are exhausted and I must hunt around the internets for the rest of the episodes):
Marine: "But the Crystal Knight can't be evil. He's noble and good and not to mention handsome." Yup, can't be evil cuz he's hawt. And indeed he is.
Hyoga: "I made you some chicken soup with like noodles 'n stuff."
Gigas: "Burn the forest. I hate forests." But he likes fish. So I guess it's okay?
Blaze Knight: "Remember kids, only you can prevent forest fires."
And it was after this line from the Blaze Knight that I've come to the conclusion that the actors for this dub don't care....and are probably making up lines. No wonder it bombed so badly. I think I'm the only one in America enjoying the DiC dub. And that's only because it's really, really special.
Oh also, Gigas, the wizardy looking bad guy (who I have no idea what he is or where he came from), apparently lost the gold cloth (which is important but I don't know why, so don't ask) which his master sent him to reclaim and in order to make up for his oopsie, is building an ice pyramid in Siberia. This leads me to two thoughts:
Whyfor do you need a sooper seekrit base in Siberia?
And the fact that it's an ice pyramid in the middle of nowhere, I think that's going to give away that it's a sooper seekrit base. I mean really.
And last but not least (because we're not going to mention the Smeagol-like ranting of the Crystal Knight while he's under mind controll): Why are we scared of a knight named Misty? And really, what the hell is going on? I'm twenty episodes in and I couldn't tell you what was happening to save my life.
