Al should have killed Pride when he had the chance.

 

[Shard]

More then meets the eye to those motions.

 

[789shadow]

You should really pick up your helmet, Al.

 

[B-Dubs]

Unless you're Mustang.

 

[ThatObviousUser]

BADASS COAT PULLON + SUNRISE + THIS MUSIC = OMFG BADASS MOMENT OF THE FOREVER

You should really pick up your helmet, Al.

Lol, no no, Pride should get to finish his song!

Unless you're Mustang.

Well yeah.

Unless Al had explosive flame powers I didn't know about, it'd be pretty hard for him.

Plus, flames would cast shadows...

 

[Schadenfreude]

Goddamn Ed is badass as fuck.

 

[Astral]

Aw yeah. My favorite use of Shunkan Sentimental.

 

[Jintor]

Endings so boss

 

[789shadow]

Unless you're Mustang.

Well then you just blow through them like cardboard.

A decent write up on Eureka Seven episode 6:

Again, the returning idea is that Renton’s naivete and self-importance is preventing him from fitting in in its immature demonstrations. A flashback to his time as an orphan shows him expecting maternal affection from his sister but then a subsequent scene shows him rejecting her authority in this maternal role. The shift in tone between these flashbacks mirrors the building up of an idealised image and then knocking it down with realism that has defined the entire first arc of the series. The audience once again sees both sides of Renton – how he sees himself and his treatment, and how the others see it.

--

he (Renton) recognises that he is still a child and is beholden to the same rules as the other children (which should include Eureka) – this cementing of his position within the hierachy and making peace with his former enemies now also cements a new enmity – one instigated by Holland and based around a need for discipline and control. Holland is now clearly shown as no peer to Renton, and no friend. Instead he is the captain of a ship, and a father figure to an errant child who has shown no desire to be controlled or disciplined.

In the end, this final scene provides a stark contrast with the final scene of episode 5, when Renton still sees Holland as a potential peer; while his illusion is beginning to fail as he realises he needs to be older to truly be friends with the adults, he still has hope that the relationship can be a peer – not a parental one.

The beginning of the series is essentially a gradually faltering illusion for Renton.

 

[Schadenfreude]

Ghost in the Shell time.

 

[ThatObviousUser]

Next week is CHAT CHAT CHAT!

 

[Seda]

Child in a hospital bed.

I think there will be feels this episode.

 

[MetatronM]

Ahh, Motoko's Bret Hart shades.



Oh, in case anybody was interested, the Adult Swim lineup prior to Toonami changes next week. Instead of Home Movies-KOTH-KOTH-Family Guy-Black Dynamite-Boondocks, it's going to be Venture Bros.-Family Guy-Family Guy-The Cleveland Show (Adult Swim Debut)-Black Dynamite-Boondocks.

 

[ThatObviousUser]

Oh wait, the ending of this episode was AMAZING.

 

[B.K.]

Well yeah.

Unless Al had explosive flame powers I didn't know about, it'd be pretty hard for him.

Plus, flames would cast shadows...

Pride has the body of a child. It wouldn't be hard for Al to snap his neck enough for Pride's Philosopher's Stone to run out of power.

 

[MetatronM]

The Major knows that feel.

 

[GaimeGuy]

too young for you, major

 

[Schadenfreude]

The Major is rockin' them shades like the best of 'em.

 

[Future Foundation]

Ahh, Motoko's Bret Hart shades.

I'm not the only one who noticed. She's even got pink and a leather jacket to work with.

 

[ThatObviousUser]

Pride has the body of a child. It wouldn't be hard for Al to snap his neck enough for Pride's Philosopher's Stone to run out of power.

Did you forget the chimera dude wailing on Pride's body in the pitch black two episodes ago? Didn't do much of anything.

 

[Future Foundation]

too young for you, major

Ah, I see someone wasn't around for the first night of Toonami-GAF/didn't see 2nd GIG.

 

[789shadow]

Why the fuck was the Major like 5 feet wide right there.

 

[MetatronM]

Texan robit

 

[Seda]

uhhhhhhhh

lol

 

[wwm0nkey]

I like this robot

 

[Shard]

He is from Osaka I do believe.

 

[Schadenfreude]

Git er dun, robit.

 

[Jintor]

Best robot in the business

 

[ThatObviousUser]

Why is he fanning himself...? Does he need to cool down...?

 

[Schadenfreude]

My name is Hank Hill and I sell organs and organ accessories.

 

[Jintor]

Why is he fanning himself...? Does he need to cool down...?

It's part of his shtick.

Goddamnit major get some pants

 

[ThatObviousUser]

What a horrible UI.

Pig faces for asterisks? Tachikoma for mouse cursor? Ugly aesthetics on windows?

Also, what was up with those giant keyboard keys...

 

[Jintor]

that bing ad was stupid

The beginning of the series is essentially a gradually faltering illusion for Renton.

Heh. Yeah, not bad at all. It's nice to notice that the Adults and Kids all are sitting in their own personal groups, by episode's end. (Except a few from each camp). Even if Renton's concept of maturity is flawed, he at least pulled off one "adult" trick; He let his actions speak true for himself, and created an example that gives others something to follow.

Much the same thing Holland is trying to do, with handing out that punishment.

I always found it so funny that Holland seemed to even be threatened by Renton, in any way, within the series. Believeable, though. Kinda sucks when you've tried so hard at things, have so much experience... then some brat kid appears, and shows up so much of what you believe in. Kinda like watching old Amuro Ray interact with Young Amuro.

 

[Seda]

I use bing.

I get MS points.

 

[ThatObviousUser]

I wonder how they'll up the ante on Taken 3.

This time... Liam Neeson's dog is taken. To the moon. By terrorist aliens.

Liam Neeson would make it work.

Taken 3 is a Die Hard remake.

 

[Schadenfreude]

Those guys got away too easy. Where the hell was the Major?

 

[ThatObviousUser]

Liam Neeson would make it work.

Indeed, no arguments there.

Those guys got away too easy. Where the hell was the Major?

Checking how she looks in her Bret Hart sunglasses in the car mirror.

 

[Seda]

Tachikomas are agile.

 

[Jintor]

Those guys got away too easy. Where the hell was the Major?

they're already being tracked, so meh

 

[GaimeGuy]

Ah, I see someone wasn't around for the first night of Toonami-GAF/didn't see 2nd GIG.

No I was. I just don't remember much of 2nd gig because it bored me to death.

I am now dead

 

[Schadenfreude]

I can't take her seriously with those shades on. So damn ridiculous.

Holland feeling threatened by him makes sense when you consider Holland's own arrested development early on. Its an interesting thing just how similar both of them are, just at opposite ends of the age spectrum

 

[SAB CA]

I use bing.

I get MS points.

Googles "Search by time" Is so much better than bing can do. Often, I just turn up with totally out-dated searches on Bing.

Bing for MS points IS great though, but I usually turn to Google to find what I ACTUALLY want...

both of them suck for searching for Animated Gifs though. I don't understand this. Why isn't that an option in Image searches?

-nod- Yup. It was a cool thing to realize as the series went on, too. The women they fall for, the women they look to for advise, the people they respect...

 

[Jintor]

I can't take her seriously with those shades on. So damn ridiculous.

it's her lack of pants that gets me

 

[Seda]

Shut up you putz

 

[ThatObviousUser]

How did that flimsy tin roof not collapse when that three-ton Tachikoma fell four stories onto it.
