ROW ROW FIGHT THE POWAH

EDIT: Post #2000 in this thread.
 
Double awesome episodes ever, this is such an awesome mecha series which I love it more than Code Geass with the cool action,mech designs, & the whole "animals taking over the world" formula!!!!

I love Nia,so cute/adorablewho replaces Kamina in the opening and is a good/awful cook which Simon loves her cooking except the others even poor Rossiu.

Cytomander the peacock general is my next favorite general which he looks like Doflamingo(One Piece)& Steve Staley is such an awesome VA for his character like the others who're Enjyu,Neji,Hitsugaya,& Moondoggie.

Wow,Viral,he really missed everything about Kamina,hehehehe.

Boota the little mole is so cute/adorablenext to Pikachu,Mocchi,Ryo-Oh-Ki,Plue, & Chopper of the cute mascots.

I like the crazy big lipped guy,he reminRAB me of Usopp(One Piece).

Hmmmm, Simon/Viral>>>>>>>>Shu/Jiro,I sense a rivalry between the awesome VAs,heheheheh.

Poor Yoko who's the threatened victim since poor Nia.

Lord Genome is such an awesome mech villain(next to Colonel Dewey)& yet so dark,scary, & creepy.

Hmmmm,Viral has his question about humans, maybe he'll change or not which we'll find out since he's an awesome kickbutt villain who all the fangirls love which he rocks.

I love Kittan's sisters,so cute & ready to kick aerial Beastman butt!!!!!!

Nice Simon/Rossiu teamup like Lelouche/Suzaku's,such a great teamup between two awesome VAs Johnny & Yuri.

Sweet corabination of Kittan & the sisters.

Cytomander's crazy expressions/laugh are so funny,best facial expressions I've seen so far.

Wow,big battle against two generals!!!!!

Yay! the whole brigade of good guys wanting help because of Kamina,their awesome savior.

Leite is the chick from the oven area,we haven't seen her awhile which she's pretty cool.

Nia so ROCKSwhile using her hologram to stop the entire Brigade from dying,she used Kamina's famous "drill to the heavens"line,GO ON GIRL!!!!!

Guame the armadillo's huge spiral twister has good color design.

Two of my favorite generals die,but Guame's death was so funny with him spinning in slowmotion,hahahahaha.

Wow,what a huge scary fortress,a really big cliffhanger!!!!!!

Here's tonight's schedule:

11:30 PM: Episode 18 - "I'll Make You Tell the Truth of the World "

All times are Eastern.
 
Using GL as a filler for Gundam 00 is sad. It's so much more than that. :P

Anywhoo.... I'm looking forward to this. I've seen the first episode subbed a bajillion times, but I can't wait to see it dubbed.
 
Where were we? Oh right, it's the end of the world as we know it, and I feel fine.

Oh dear. Lynch mob.

Public execution for piloting a giant robot?
Harsh.
 
I'm actually surprised that woman (Adine?) actually died, considering the previous episode had the other person surviving a gigantic explosion as well. Well, Simon finally snaps of it, and what do we get? An unstoppable fighting machine. Wonder how long it'll last. Second episode was a fun one to watch, with it being water-themed and all that. And of course, of all the places for Simon's drill to hit, it gets Leeron.
 
You're forgetting that a large subsection of American pop culture explicitly and unwaveringly frowns upon any of kind of negative emotion in the face of tragedy or personal problems. The word "emo" is becoming more feared than a red pen in high school these days.

Crying over your mother dying is enough to get you classified as an "emo" for life, I swear.

Write a poem? You're emo!

Write a novel or story? You're emo! Not to mention you fail at life because you need to create other lives.

Write anything that your teachers don't force you to other than text messages, board posts at "acceptable" places and emails? You're emo! And a geek. And anti-social.

Listen to Linkin Park? You're emo!

Have an LJ account? Oh God, you're the erabodiment of emo. And a mama's boy, because she's the only one who actually gives a damn about what you're writing about.

Love your mother? You're unquestionably emo!

You type in proper English? I don't even need to go there!

You wear black for a day? You're emo!

You listen to Hawthorne Heights? You're emo!

You're not popular? You MUST be emo, there's no other explanation!

You confide in someone once in a while? You're emo!

You watch anime? You're a nerd, emo, and a homosexual all rolled into one!

Listen to Avenged Sevenfold? You're emo!

You don't do underage drinking? You're emo! Not to mention you don't have a life either.

Highlight your hair? You're emo! (girl version)

You let your hair go over the tips of your ears? You're emo! (boy version)

Listen to Metallica? You're emo! (yes, apparently Metallica's an emo act these days).

I can go on and on about every little thing that gets you the dreaded label of "emo" in the United States these days . . .
